There are a few holidays that show up on the calendar but we really don't celebrate as much as we probably should. I've decided to highlight these so that in the future you can keep them in mind.

This week, we asked you if you think Timothy Poe should be kicked off the NBC television show "America's Got Talent". Poe was the contestant who strolled out onto the AGT audition stage, and told the judges an incredible story about how he was injured in military action in Afghanistan back in 2009, developed a stutter as a result of his injury, and that he took up singing as a form of th

World Blood Donor Day is this Thursday and as we all know blood is the gift of life for many. You never know when it might be you or a family member in need of a blood transfusion, but I guarantee you would want your type to be in supply. Thursday is a perfect day to go and donate and save a life.

A group of Abilene area citizens that call themselves 'Tank Tops & Flip Flops', will be hosting a fundraiser for a couple of area volunteer fire departments. This year the Potosi and Buffalo Gap V.F.D.'s will be the beneficiaries.

Usually during summertime, television producers give us lite, fluffy shows to enjoy but last night I watched something that wasn't that at all, it had meat to it, so to speak. The HBO movie Hemingway & Gellhorn. This movie stars Nicole Kidman (Martha Gellhorn) and Clive Owen (Ernest Hemingway) and follows their romance, war travels and many of their writing adventures. G...

In Texas a way to cool off is to float the river.  There are a number to choose from; the Guadalupe, Comal, Frio, San Marcus to name a few.  It's a fairly inexpensive, relaxing and fun getaway to take in on a weekend. The problem is you have to have water in the river to enjoy the float, something that's been a problem here in Texas the last couple of years.  Well, we've received a bit of rain and

What could you do with a million dollars? I know I would buy this nice big house out near Potosi that I recently looked at and pay off bills for my family. This particular hole-in-one contest is splitting a $2 million dollar prize between you and the Ben Richey Boys Ranch. So it's a win-win for you and a great local organization that helps turn boys into respectable, productive young men. Read

The New Hope Church on South Clack, will be showing the movie 'Courageous' this Father's Day Sunday. Families are invited to attend and everyone is welcomed. New Hope Church is planning an after movie brisket barbeque for all who attend. Check out all the details.

If you haven't heard, Timothy Poe is a country singer who appeared on Season 7 of America's Got Talent.

I've been told my entire life that everyone has a special talent, and I believe it to be fact. We see a lot of people these days showing off their talents on television shows like "America's Got Talent" all the time. But if you have a talent like mine, you know what it's like for your special talent to be forgotten, found to be useless, or we just get too embarrassed to share.

With the Dr. Seuss Festival coming up in downtown Abilene Father's Day weekend, here is your chance to vote for your favorite Dr. Seuss book.

Wow! I am really surprised at the results of the 'What do Men in Abilene Really Want for Fathers Day' poll. Interestingly enough, the majority of men in Abilene 44%, would rather have a hot date night with the wife, over a store-bought gift (your choice), homemade gift, homemade fathers-day card or a massage. What I did find interesting is that home-cooked meals ranked second. Here's the way the p
