Say it isn't so. Regis Philbin  is walking away from his morning tv talk show. Regis told the audience today that this will be his last season on  Live! with Regis and Kelly.

There are two things you can do in the Midwest during winter; and since it's cold everywhere else, moving is no longer a good option.  The second choice is much more fun.  Get outside and get moving. Lamoreaux Park on Coit Avenue in Grand Rapids is a beautiful spot to go Cross-Country Skiing. It's relatively flat and takes you right near the Grand River.

Need a break from your workday?  Watch this and have a great weekend.

photo by Gene Parker My wife is a great cook. She's had lots of practice over the years. I, on the other hand, am good a just a few dishes. The easier, the better! One of my favorite things to make is something called Gene's Best Burritos. I have messed with this recipe many times. It's best when done simply.

After all these years, why would anyone stay up late in the night -- in the cold of winter -- to play men's league ice hockey with a bunch of other over-the-hill "used-to-be-somebodys?   Could be the competition.  Perhaps its the chance to relive the glory of the good old days...

The River welcomed Michael Buble to Van Andel Arena tonight! 3 lucky winners and their guests got to meet Michael!

The Jaycees did it right again this year!  30,000 people showed up for the Santa Parade.  Andy Rent and I were riding on the back end of a beautiful black cadillac courtesy of Car City!  Fun Day!  Enjoy some pics from the parade by clicking on the link below...

It was 1978.  I just graduated from high school and I was going to Michigan State University when I first heard Bruce Springsteen’s  Darkness on the Edge of Town. I’d heard of Springsteen before, right?  Didn’t he do Born to run?  Wasn’t he the guy who on the cover of Time and Newsweek Magazine in the same week? Yes. Yes and Yes.
