Recently, a couple Capital Region locations landed on a list of "blast-from-the-past" rollerskating rinks. The list, posted by newyorkupstate.com, did actually make me feel really nostalgic.  I used to love going roller-skating as a kid growing up...

Student loan debt has reached an all-time high, only second to mortgages. No wonder no-one I know around my age can buy a house.  But it's no surprise.  As a part of the generation that was told "college, college, college", we took out the loans, we did what we were told...

Two casinos in New York have made a list of the Top Ten casinos in the U.S. outside of Las Vegas. I guess Las Vegas was excluded since that’s a beast of its own.  However, there are a ton of casinos outside of Vegas, and recently a vote was done to pick the top ten nationally...

Driving from the Capital Region to Vermont the other night, I got a chance to see some of the damage done by the recent storms. In a recent post by WNYT, updating the public on power outages and work being done by National Grid, they noted that nearly 300,000 customers had been impacted by the storms...

Bet you've never heard Nine Inch Nails sound like this. In what I will argue is the best new "Halloween"-themed mash (sorry, Monster Mash), Nine Inch Nails and the Ghostbusters meet head-on in a collision of greatness. I stumbled across a YouTube link with an intriguing headline, and clearly had to click it...

Less than two weeks until Free Beer and Hot Wings are coming back to the Capital Region.

Construction is underway and millions are being spent to renovate SPAC. Summer concert season is over, and it looks like upcoming seasons may be even more enjoyable.  According to News 10 abc, a $9.5 million renovation project is happening at SPAC...

I thought this list was a joke, but um, it's not.  Though I still don't believe that these are New York's three most popular candies. Over the years, I've asked you about your favorite candies- and which are the worst.  I know the popular opinion among my friends in New York...

Ghost came back to the Capital Region to set the tone for Halloween week with live music. The heavenly hellish rock band brought their "Ultimate Tour Named Death" tour to the Cool Insuring Arena in Glens Falls on Saturday.  It was actually the last stop of their North American tour, but the band didn't show any signs of being tired or worn out...

I mean, I guess this is fitting news since Halloween is coming up.  And this seems like something straight out of a horror movie. This is just straight up bizarre to me though.  In fact, I actually clicked the news link thinking it was a joke...

Not only is a commerical kitchen opening up, but a lot of jobs are being creating as well. The Capital Region food staple, the Oboy, is going to be made accessible to many many more people.  According to News Channel 13, Esperanto is going to be opening a huge commerical kitchen to manufacture Oboys...

Talk about an easy way to make an extra $1000 - if you like Disney, that is. Disney+ wants to hire people to watch Disney movies.  Yup.  For the Disney fans, this could be a dream come true.  I mean, for those stone-faced Wednesday Addams out there, this could be torture (not knocking, Wednesday is my childhood idol...
