Are you into jazz? I was never really a huge jazz fan until a few years ago when an uncle introduced me to John Coltrane. Since then I've been hooked. So I'm thinking about hitting up the Atlanta Jazz Festival at Piedmont Park tomorrow (May 29). I've been told that it used to be a huge event in Atlanta but then it got moved to a smaller venue a couple years... [Read more...]

A Memorial Day without a cookout and potato salad is...well, it's just not right.  This weekend is the unofficial start to grilling season.  And while it's important that we take time to remember those that serve, we also need to celebrate those freedoms that they fought to protect.  So grab your ribs, your burgers, your dogs and your taters and let's get... [Read more...]

At the risk of committing a manfraction, I have to admit that I enjoy watching a lot of television shows targeted for women. I'ts just entertaining.  As men, we play our drama out on the basketball courts and football fields.  Women do a much better job of showing it on screen. Which brings me to my reason for writing this post.  I just found out via... [Read more...]

With our society... [Read more...]

I’m trying to plan a little vacation for my girlfriend and I this fall. I’ve got about a week of free time and I want to relax.

Or maybe it’s time to try something completely... [Read more...]

Time to get the body right for summer folks.  It's now-or-never season.  That means hitting the gym regularly as well as eating lighter and healthier.  I'm trying to get more salads into my diet.  And since I'm a huge fan of broccoli, I figured I'd check this recipe out (see below).  It has bacon in it so by default it's going to taste good, right?  I'll... [Read more...]

The other day on V103, Frank Ski was talking about how Common is going to be the new Hollywood sex symbol after the Just Wright comes out?  Now, I'm not hating, but what does Common have that I don't have besides  a successful rap career, a professional tennis playing girlfriend and a movie star paycheck.  Alright, I guess I'll leave this argument alone. ... [Read more...]

Any green thumbs out here in Tamarron? Sometimes I wish I was. Gardening is certainly both a science and an art. Some have the knack, some don't...just ask my plastic plant that died on me last year. Although I am thinking about starting one of those hanging tomato plants. Anyone have one? In any case, for those that are interested, on May 15 from 10 a.m.... [Read more...]
