I have been at WKDQ for 13 years and have loved every minute of it. My career started in Southern California and I arrived in Evansville in 1994. I have three children that keep me very busy and the rare opportunity to go out and not have a six foot mouse serving your table is a rare and welcome treat. I love motorcycles and classic country and even host the WKDQ Country Classics show every Saturday from 6-10am. If I can I can ever play a song for you, let me know at wkdq.com.

How Our Personalities Are Like Dogs and Cats

This morning, Leslie and I posted a question on Facebook asking if you were a pet, would you be a dog or cat? This question morphed into a discussion about how our personalities are similar to the pets we choose, in this case, dogs and cats. I said that I was a dog person and Leslie immediately went into a deal about how I am really a cat because of my personality traits, which I totally disagreed with.

Last month, the U.S. Postal Service announced it would end Saturday delivery of first class mail in an effort to save $2 billion annually. The Postal Service lost about $16 billion last year, but on Thursday Congress passed legislation requiring six-day delivery, which is not what the Postal Service wanted to see.

CVS Pharmacy Wants to Know Employees’ Weight and Body Fat Or They Will Be Charged a Fine

CVS Pharmacy is requiring all employees to submit their weight, body fat, cholesterol and other vitals if they use the company's health plan. If they refuse to submit the information, they will be charged an additional $50 per month for their insurance. On one hand, with rising health insurance costs, I can understand why they want this, but on the other hand, it's very scary and brings up many privacy issues.

The Wait Is Over: The Oreo Cookie Separation Gun Is Finally Here

I have to admit, I have a soft spot for Oreo cookies, especially the Double Stuff ones. What Oreo lover has not separated the top of the cookie to get right to the cream center...awesome! If you have ever hoped for a device to separate an Oreo cookie so you wouldn't have to waste the millisecond it takes to accomplish this, your wait is over.

Epic Kiss Cam Moment In Houston… If It’s Real

If you have ever been to an Evansville Icemen game at the Ford Center, you have seen the Kiss Cam, which has become a staple the last two years. It's hilarious to watch some of the reactions like the 'no way you're kissing me on camera', or the full on make out scene, which can be pretty gross, especially if one of them is in the middle of eating a hot dog or some nachos.
