For the cost of a cheap used car, you can rent an entire ski resort not far from the Capital Region.  If you get a group of friends together?  Well, it's really not that bad of a price. As a skier, the newyorkupstate.com post caught my eye...

This is Really One of the Most Common Languages in New York?
English and Spanish aside, what do you think is the most common language in New York?  Well, it's definitely not one that I expected. Business Insider did an article about the most common languages in each state, excluding English and Spanish...

Should NYC No Pants Idea Come to the Capital Region?
So I want to know your thoughts on this one. Apparently New York City has something that I never knew existed.  A No Pants subway day.  The Times Union posted about it, with photos, so obviously I had to look right?  I started to wonder why there was a whole day dedicated to wearing no pants on subways around New York City...

The last time a small earthquake hit Northern New York, I was lying on my back deck tanning in a bathing suit and thought to myself "weird, why did my butt just jiggle".  I picked my head up, looked around, and then put my head back down...

Make Up To $100,000 working at Taco Bell
I will gladly take $100,000 (and hopefully all the free tacos I can get). I'm usually impressed with Taco Bell late night on a Friday or Saturday, after hitting the drive-through on Wolf Road.  But to be honest, this most recent news article I caught is pretty impressive as well...

Ricky Gervais (kind of) Tells Off Hollywood at the Golden Globes
I will admit I didn't watch the Golden Globes live last night, just the recaps this morning.  But really all that mattered to me was a clip that's already been all over social media and the news. Ricky Gervais hosted yet again.  With his cutting jokes and cracks at Hollywood, even though he himself is also a celebrity, I do have to say that this year I completely appreciated a nice little thirty s
