Get Weather Alerts via Twitter

Lets face it, some of us are on Twitter more than we are paying attention to most other forms of communication. We can tell you what was recently blogged, but we sometimes have no idea what’s going on outside our window with the weather. Wouldn’t it be nice to get them to come to you, […]

Is Ryan Evans Our Next President?

While at the MIMA Summit on Wednesday, I got to talk with Ryan Evans.  Little did I know at the time, he was running for president! Since I’m still an undecided voter, Ryan Evans is as good as any.  His lack of political experience and ability to dodge questions is on par with any other […]

35W Bridge Collapse – 1 Year Later

It’s been one year since the 35W bridge gave way and it’s still unbelievable. WCCO has a great retrospective on the survivors, the responders and others at the scene of the bridge collapse. Especially moving to us is the Coulter family and Paula, whom my wife use to work with.  The doctors didn’t think she’d live, let alone walk and […]

It was across the street from the Target Center and we had no idea what everyone was there for. Taking […]

Valleyfair Looses Power

A lightning strike over the weekend may have caused a slow burn in underground power lines. This then took out the power to a large chunk, half, of Valleyfair last night. Riders stuck on rollercoasters had to walk down the lift hill and other riders were helped out of rides also. No injuries were reported […]
