December 6, 2012 Our annual Toys for Tots Drive "Operation Toy Wars" was yesterday (Dec. 5) at both Wal-mart stores in Texarkana. Thanks to everyone who came out and made a cash donation or dropped off a new unwrapped toy.
The Sevier County Museum in De Queen has been busy constructing a garden to honor the county's veterans at the museum complex. Here are some pictures of the garden I took this past weekend!
November 1, 2012 It's that time of the year again! Time for the Taste of Home Cooking School with Culinary Specialist Jamie Dunn as she brings her latest techniques and recipes to the Four States Fairgrounds Entertainment Center on Thursday, Nov. 8 starting at 6:30 p.m.
Don't always believe everything Facebook tells you. If it was all true, do you have any idea how many dollars would've been donated to charity for liking that picture of a kitten? It can't be all true, and it's not. Here are some pictures of "Hurricane Sandy" circulating around that most certainly are NOT pictures of Hurricane Sandy. You're welcome.
In case you missed it -- there's a storm a-brewin'! Hurricane Sandy is lurching her way up the coast, heading for us all. Yesterday, the MTA announced it was shutting down trains in NYC at 7 pm and buses at 9pm. Here are some pictures from their official Flickr page taunting us with how delightfully empty all the stations are right now.
Hey there, how's it going? Maybe you're nestled up all snuggly someplace far, far away from the Eastern seaboard, with nary a worry on your mind. The rest of us our bracing ourselves for Frankenstorm AKA The Snowicane AKA Hurricane Sandy. Since it's pretty much all we can think about, here are our favorite memes on the subject. (Yes, many involve Sandra Dee puns.) Because how many weather reports can you really read?
Between your foolproof stencil of Justin Bieber's face and an endless supply of premium 99 cent carving tools, you probably envisioned yourself minutes away from that dreamy pop star pumpkin glowing all over your neighbors' jealous faces. What could go wrong?
I can't stop chuckling at this one.
During the Halloween season, we are constantly inundated with fictional witches, warlocks, and vampires; from 'Twilight' to 'True Blood' to 'Harry Potter,' Hollywood loves a good tale about these preternatural creatures. Not all witches and vampires are sparkly, imaginary creatures. Here are 10 people who claim to have powers from beyond.... SPOOKY!
We've all been there -- just a couple hours before you have to head out to a Halloween party, and you haven't had the time or money to put together a decent costume. Then suddenly, a flash of inspiration zaps you or one of your buddies -- but all too often, the final product is just sad at best, or lands you in the slammer.
As Halloween draws near, shut the lights off, grab your pet, a well-worn blanket, and curl up to read about some of the most spine-tingling and frightening places on Earth. As the ghost stories of each place draw you in, be aware of that disembodied footstep or strange rapping noise-it may just be a spirit trying to reach out to you!
One of our new favorite things about Halloween is funny, candid pictures of people being scared senseless in a haunted house. We had to ask ourselves though, what were they seeing that was so scary? We put our heads together, and we think we've figured it out. Here are our guesses at what was so scary in that haunted house. Because it certainly wasn't a guy in a wolf mask jumping out of nowhere.
