I wasn't born in Texas, but I got here as quick as I could. I'm originally from Battle Creek, Michigan (home of Tony the Tiger). I've got two kids who take up most of my time out of the office, but when I get "me time", I'm either taking in some live music or a sporting event. Since relocating, I also fell in love with the Texas music scene. I've been lucky enough to be nominated for DJ of the Year 4 straight years by the Academy of Texas Music, and was the 2009 recipient of the Academy's Palmwood Award. I'm a huge sports fan, and my loyalties are with the Michigan Wolverines, Chicago White Sox and (sorry) the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Yes, there is a part of me who wishes the TMZ camera guy would stop following Farrah Abraham around and letting all of the stupid fall out of her mouth, but it mostly just makes me feel better abo

I finally saw the perfect opportunity over the weekend at Heff's Burgers & More, where they offered the chance to take their 'Triple Challenge'. I had nothing better going on, and apparently neither did a handful of my coworkers.

Toddler Scores Soccer Goal, Causes Thousands of Fans to Chant ‘Sign Him Up!’
It never ceases to amaze me how a small child can capture your attention, just by behaving like a kid. My kids do it all the time.

At the Volvo World Match Play Championship in Bulgaria Saturday (5/18), one of golfer Nicolas Colsaert's tee shots proved that his golf game is, literally, in the toilet. One of his tee shots actually landed in a toilet to the left of the fairway. Embarrassing enough, but what followed was worse.

Holly Tucker Talks About Receiving Praise From LeAnn Rimes on ‘The Voice After Show’
'The Voice Season 4' announced that Holly Tucker is a part of its Top 10 on live television. They made the singer with West Texas ties sweat it out, as her name was the 9th called, but I don't think Holly will complain.

After Watching the Trailer for ‘Now You See Me’, Dave Believes it Will Be the Coolest Movie in Years
For a couple years now, I've felt there's been a drop in the quality of high profile movies. The "Must See" summer blockbusters have been less than amazing, in my opinion. I could blame California's hard economic times, or a lack of fresh ideas if you want. Whatever the case, it appears that the drought is over thanks to 'Now You See Me'.
