God, family, country, and blue collar roots—in that order … that pretty much describes me. I'm a Mainer through and through. After dusting off the snow, I stumbled out of Presque Isle, Maine, back in the late 70’s to attend UMaine, and have never left the Bangor area since. From farm work, logging, aviation, education, and broadcasting, you might say I've lived an adventurous life. I love my wife (the bumper sticker on my truck says so), children, grandkids, church family, my crazy dogs, my ‘ol ‘97 GMC truck, motorcycle, country music, and a cold one once in a while to take the edge off. Be sure to listen in weekday afternoons on Maine’s Fun Country Station…Q-106.5.

Litter Bug Vigilante Throws Trash Back at Violaters [VIDEO]
I don't like litter bugs. It drives me nuts when someone treats the parking lots, roadways, and even my property like their own dumping ground for refuse with no consideration for others. Well one guy in Russia has everyone talking. He's kind of like a litter bug vigilante on a motorcycle who won't think twice about picking up trash you've thrown on the ground and throwing right back at you...

Get Ready for the Worst Jokes from a 3 Year-Old [VIDEO]
I love a good joke, but sometimes the person telling them fails to get the punchline right. But sometimes the botched joke is funnier than the original telling.

Wasps Make Huge Nest on Window Pane–See Inside [VIDEO]

Kimmel’s Lie Witness News Targets So-Called Fashion Followers [VIDEO]
Jimmy Kimmel's show cracks me up. Recently, Kimmel sent his crew to the streets of New York as 'Fashion Week' wraps up, and asks show attendees about designers that don't exist...at least never as designers. People will say just about anything to avoid appearing out of touch and uncool...
