Planning to go out for pizza tonight? You can take Round Table of your list of options. The Statesman is reporting that the company closed all seven locations in Boise overnight…with no word to employees who showed up for work today and were told via a note on the door that “their employment had been [...]
So you think you can “do” the news better than Dee Sarton or Don Nelson? As a “trained” broadcast journalist who is now practicing in the field of PR, I’ve found it intensely interesting to observe the advent of the “citizen journalist” - you know, the idea that with cell phones, blogs, and other technology, anyone [...]
We had some friends over this weekend for a BBQ and officially test out our imaginary table (see previous post “Shattered” for details…).

Good luck, Margo! I’m sure we’ll be hearing more from Margo as the Komen Boise Race for the Cure [...]
If you listen to KHITS 107.1 all the time, or watch Channel 6 news (both are owned by Journal Broadcast Group), then you likely have heard the news that Margo Vaughn, the popular morning show diva was undergoing surgery today for breast cancer.
Vaughn made the announcement on the air last week. You can follow her [...]
What did I say!?!? The Statesman this weekend confirmed my assertion that there’s no excuse for not getting active when you live in Boise…Even if it’s hard work.
