Delayed Passengers Get Free In-Plane Concert [VIDEO]
I enjoy traveling and most of the time enjoy flying too. Yet we have all had that moment on a plane where the delays seem to go on and on. Luckily for the passengers of one Air-Canada flight, a whole orchestra was on board, and they immediately volunteered to entertain.
New Vacation Flights Available Through CIRA [VIDEO]
There are a lot of exciting new opportunities for you to travel out of BLO-NO directly into a dream vacation destination. With low fare specials from Allegiant (which flies direct to Orlando) and Frontier (which flies into Denver), you could actually escape for the just the weekend for a couple hundred bucks!
Tom Cruise Worked With Def Leppard For Rock Of Ages Role [VIDEO]
As a musical theater fan, I was thrilled when I heard that a big screen film of 'Rock of Ages' was being made. Top it off with celebrity castings of Alec Baldwin, Julianne Hough, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Paul Giamatti ,this will be great! Then I learned Tom Cruise was cast, and I wondered if he could really pull this off. Can he even sing? Well apparently he can and he even rehearsed with Def Leppard for his role. Now I am impressed.
Graduation Included a Surprise Marriage Proposal [VIDEO]
Some graduates receive gifts after they walk in their cap and gown. Parties are common too. Sarah Cooper got the surprise of her life when she walked this past weekend. Sarah got a proposal.
Top Baby Names According to Social Security Administration
It seems like everybody has a list out of the top baby names, but I trust the Social Security Administration list because they have proof of these names being registered. Headlines for this year's list include : 'Mason' making the top 10, debuting at #2. (Isn't that the name of Kourtney Kardashian's first-born?) The fastest riser on the girl's list is 'Briella', which just happens to be the name of the blonde hairdresser of "Jerseylicious" and "Glam Fairy" fame.
The Scariest Thing Susan and Ray Have Done [VIDEO]
With Ray being new to town, I took it upon myself to find time to escort him to certain local landmarks so he would be familiar with his new turf. Marc Burnett was kind enough to arrange a back stage tour of the Peoria Civic Center for us and I immediately grabbed the video camera so we could share the experience. That video is set for another day. Today we take a look a the unexpected fright we had in Peoria. A small detour on our adventure that was amazing, but scary as heck.
Ipod Nano Becomes A Strapless Watch After Magnets are Implanted[VIDEO]
The latest generation iPod Nano is a thing of beauty. It play music, runs apps, even tells the time. In fact, it's so small and light there are companies that make wristbands that allow you to wear the Nano like a watch. Dave Hurban has taken it a step further.
America’s Got Talent Returns To TV Tonight [VIDEO]
I am very invested in this season of America's Got Talent on NBC. The auditions from St.Louis are on tonight, and we sent multiple acts from Blo-No down to these auditions with fast passes that put them in front of producers right away. We can't reveal if these folks made it on to the show yet because of confidentiality contracts, but I will be watching every second of the show. Last night, the 2012 Britain's Got Talent winner was crowned, and it was a dog named Pudsey who won!

Is This Time Magazine Cover Obscene? [POLL]
Breast feeding is not an obscene act. Yet some are outraged at this Time Magazine cover shot of Jamie Lynne Grumet feeding her 3 yr old son. Jamie believes that she should continue breast feeding her son until he is 6 because this is biologically normal. Huh?
Prince Charles BBC Weather Forecast [VIDEO]
During a tour of BBC Scotland's Pacific Quay headquarters, Prince Charles presented the weather forecast. Reading a bleak prognosis for Balmoral, he jokes: 'Who the hell wrote this script?' The prince and his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, were visiting the BBC as a part of their annual Holyrood Week. I have no idea what that is, but you will enjoy this funny video from the future King of England.
