Friday afternoon I went to take out the trash, and noticed a guy bent over on my neighbors porch. As I walked down my stairs, he straightened up, came down the stairs, and walked past me, holding a couple of bags in his right hand (the side further away from me). My first thought was: …
Today is the 6th Annual Bell Let’s Talk day. The day is a Canadian based campaign focused on talking about mental health issues and encouraging everyone to talk their stories out. Bell Media runs this program, and for every Tweet with the #BellLetsTalk attached to it will raise $0.05 for charity (towards mental health awareness), …
Pete Rose was denied reinstatement by Major League Baseball last week…and they are 100% correct. Pete Rose erred back in the 1980s and a lot of times since, lied about it, finally came clean, yet still does the actions (which are not illegal) and hasn’t fully atoned for his sins. Because of all that Pete …
Mattel reported earnings last week, and unsurprisingly Barbie sales pulled their numbers down. Barbies sales are down 4% bringing in approximately $300M last quarter, and I don’t think anyone should be surprised.

Hundreds of articles are being written on him. Many of them that actually knew Yogi and watched him play. Lawrence Peter “Yogi” Berra passed away late Tuesday night at the age of 90 I have had the honor of neither. But one thing I am certain of: He is one of the greatest ball players …
People stand with groups and communities all the time. But in this case it’s different for me. This time it’s personal. Media and TV Stations are a unique group that I am proud to be a part of, and when something like yesterday happens, it ripples through our control rooms in a sad way. While …
To some he was Rabbi Yehuda Friedman, to others he was Dad, yet to me and my family he was always “Uncle Ernie”, as my Grandmothers Sisters Husband. Uncle Ernie was a great man. Always there when someone needed him and lead a great life, constantly learning and striving for more. My fathers dad passed away …
It’s been the cover story of the NY Post for the last two mornings and I figured I’d bring it up. Faigy Mayer ventured through Brooklyn College at the same time as me, on her Graduate path while I went for Undergrad, and she went on to write apps and was working on a project …
