The holidays went well, thanks, but they were different. For the first time in a few years, I decided to spend an entire week at home around Christmas. This wasn’t my first option but it ended up as the most practical for a couple of reasons. First off, I was heading in to the first… Read more »

VIDEO: 5 FAQs After Running My First NYC Marathon
Almost a week separated from crossing the finish line and I’m still wrapping my head around the fact that I ran 26.2 miles through my favorite city in the world only to learn that it’s an even better place than I originally thought. And trust me; I was already head-over-heels in love. Back in August… Read more »
A Weekend Wedding And The Fresh Prince Of Amtrak Delays
Now this is a story all about how my Saturday got flipped-turned upside down. Royalty and the west coast are not involved but Philadelphia serves as one of the backdrops. The plan was simple: take an early afternoon Amtrak to Philadelphia, attend the wedding of friend/former intern/past-contributor Jessie Holeva, enjoy the reception and catch a… Read more »
PHOTOS: You Never Forget Your First (NYC) Apartment
I am a month separated from leaving my first apartment in New York City, and I’m still having withdrawals. Just yesterday I was speaking at a conference and I jumped at the chance to reminisce with two attendees who live in my old neighborhood about how wonderful it is and how much I miss it…. Read more »
VIDEO: Celebrating 10 Years At Cumulus Media And On 97.1/95.7 BHT
I’m not sure where to begin on this one. Yunno what? Let’s start at the beginning. It was August 1, 2007. I was living in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. Everything was new: the city (a college town that was slow to evolve because of local traditions), the state (running the gamut from the bad: ‘Wait, the state… Read more »
PHOTOS: Enjoying The Last Of Summer Before It’s Gone
I can’t believe we’re less than a month away from Pumpkin Spice Lattes and football weekends. I detest humidity and absolutely love fall (not necessarily for the PSLs though; do you know what they put in those things?) but still am taken aback at how quick summer flew by. Yes, I have no probably saying… Read more »
PHOTOS: Here’s Why I Ran A 5K And Told No One About It Until Now
It was quite appropriate that before I made my third trip back to Niagara Falls, New York in six weeks (yes that’s every-other-weekend for those keeping score at home), I ran a 5K. Of course, the reason I returned home is for my Mother’s church’s picnic, which I attend annually. The 5K, held inside Yankee… Read more »
VIDEO: Ain’t No Party Like A Scranton Party
As the great philosopher Michael Gary Scott once stated, “Ain’t no party, like a Scranton party.” And with that, let me tell you about my whirlwind weekend in Northeastern Pennsylvania. I’ve had the honor of hosting a radio show on WBHT-FM for almost 10 years now. It was my first gig out of high school…. Read more »
PHOTOS: Beaches, Bloody Marys And Wedding Bells
I started last week with an expired passport. I ended it in Sint Maarten celebrating the marriage of my buddy Mark and his lovely wife Sarah. Obviously I knew about the wedding for a while and I was aware that my passport would lose its validity in February. The problem was that my passport actually… Read more »
PHOTOS: Opening Day And A New Season At Yankee Stadium
So how great is this Yankees’ season going so far? Ok, let’s hope I didn’t jinx it. I had the pleasure of attending the home opener up in the Bronx last month with one of my best friends along with my sister and some of her co-workers. Then I returned to the Bronx for the… Read more »
