Quite the interesting (and effective) radio campaign that took place in Milwaukee 2001.

Back By Popular Demand

2004-12-12T11:37:00.000-08:00

Alright, alright ... it's been a month since my last blog ... very bad of me! I've been out of town (no excuse) but will be back in action from now on!

Further proof that Joe is too good to me ... he got me a SWEET new snowboard for Christmas from the Torque Center. They had a crazy 33 hour sale that Tracy I went to at 1AM Saturday morning! That's right we were there until bar time, but I left with a hot Burton board and bindings, and Northwave boots. Tracy spiced up her gear with powder blue goggles, and yellow boarding jacket.

Bill, Tra, Johnny Mac, and I will be tearing it up at Sunburst this year, and everyone should join us! Especially you, A.P. ... we know how die hard you are about wakeboarding, so your butt better be out in the snow with us too!

Land of Swimmin' Pools, Movie Stars

2004-11-13T09:27:00.000-08:00

Hello Mudda, Hella Fadda,

Here I am in Los Angeles,
Time for shopping and sight-seeing,
if only it would just stop f*ing raining!

So I arrived in West Hollywood last night. Do you know that it took me longer to drive from the airport to my hotel than to fly to L.A. from Denver? Ridiculous! Never use Super Shuttle ... they are not so super!

Anyway, today is my day off to explore the land of swimmin' pools and movie stars ... and it's RAINING! I have the worst luck when it comes to California weather ... right, Stayton? ; )

So, I think I am going to go check out the Museum of Contemporary Art and hopefully by this afternoon it will be nice enough to window shop on Rodeo Drive. I guess I can't complain too much ... at least it is 65 degrees ... hey, how's Wisconsin right now? ; )

P.S. They are talking about Scott Peterson everywhere down here! Guilty!

Oops, I've gotta go ... it just stopped raining!

Head West Young Girl!

Tiko Wins!

2004-11-03T05:20:00.000-08:00

To the tune of "Hail to The Chief"

Ahem ... mi, mi, mi, miiiiiiiiiiiiiiii...

Hail to the puppy,
he made it through the whole week,
without going potty
or poopy on the floor!
Now he's a doggy,
no longer just a puppy.
We are so proud of
our little Tiko Klug!

Votergasm

2004-10-22T13:02:00.000-07:00

Nikki finds all the best stuff...

I just signed this Votergasm Pledge:

American Hero: I pledge to have sex with a voter on election night (or as soon as possible afterward with my boyfriend) and withhold sex from non-voters for the next four years.

I want you to sign up too, at: www.votergasm.org/Pledge.php

The Pledge is part of Votergasm's campaign to increase youth voting rates - something I care deeply about.

Together, we can save our country.

The Ads Are Here!

2004-10-20T15:49:00.001-07:00

Check it out! I am so proud of myself, because I mastered the javascript and figured out how to get the Google Ads where I wanted them on the site! Yippee!

Looks like the Google people think my site is mostly about Green Bay ... funny!

Sandals Resorts reverses policy banning gay couples

2004-10-18T06:38:00.000-07:00

I'm upset to learn that Sandals Resorts had this policy in the first place. The company's ads used to contain a caveat that it offered romantic getaways "for mixed couples only."

Bringing the Democrats Down!

It's ridiculous the lengths that they will go to mess with the elections. Now Republicans are trying to limit the number of ballots in Milwaukee County to decrease Democratic voter turn-out!

Breast Cancer

2004-10-12T11:54:00.000-07:00

This is so easy and so important!

The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on "donating a mammogram" for free (pink window in the middle). This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.

Here's the web site! Visit every day to donate!

Tiko's Birthday

2004-10-11T23:56:00.000-07:00

Tiko is growing up so fast! He's already 8.5 pounds and turned 4 months old on Sunday. Aunt Telzey gave him some new bling bling for his collar, when he got his Rabies shot. We're learning new tricks like beg, bow, bang, roll-over, and turn around from the book "How to Teach A New Dog Old Tricks." He's such a smartie - he'll have them down flat in no time!

Go Phoenix!

2004-10-11T19:27:00.000-07:00

The Green Bay swim team took on the Badgers last Friday afternoon. I was torn between my alma mater, hometown Panthers, and boyfriend's team - but there was NO WAY that I would cheer for anyone but GREEN BAY!!! They put in a super showing at the first meet of the year. Check out their schedule for future meets, so you can cheer Joe & his team mates on! The conference meet will be in Milwaukee this year, so I expect a huge fan base to be there!

Fall Jewelry Party

2004-10-11T17:30:00.000-07:00

I just sent out invitations for my Fall Jewelry Party today. Julie from Silpada Jewelry Designs will be there showing off their spectacular silver jewelry collection. It will be a pamper-me evening filled with sparkly jewelry, tasty treats, and thirst-quenching beverages. What could be more fun?

New Wakeboarding Trick

2004-10-11T16:25:00.000-07:00

I've got to give a shout out to Johnny Mac for landing his first wake-to-wake jump last Thursday on lake Nagawickee (shhh...we were supposedly out sick that day!). The sun was shining, but the water was a balmy 60 degrees. I landed my first one too ... and I have to say that it was SWEET! You've got to be careful on that lake though - it seems to eat boats. Every time we go there (twice), we've had to tow a boat across the lake (twice). Bill is building up his good karma!

Important heads up compliments of Ms. Stayton...

A Sept. 20 Business Week article highlights an organization called 85 Broads, which was founded in 1999 and has about 4,000 members. 85 Broads is asking it members NOT to spend any money on October 19—“a ‘boycott’ [that] will show the gap between women's purchasing power and their under representation in boardrooms and executive suites.”

The group’s website includes a few telling statistics:“Did you know that women in the U.S. alone:

1) Control $3.3 TRILLION in annual consumer spending?
2) Make 62% of all car purchases?
3) Take more than 50% of all business trips?
4) Control over 50% of the personal wealth in this country?

According to Catalyst, in the U.S. only 8 CEO's in the Fortune 500 are women, 13.6% are board directors, and 5.2% are top-earning corporate officers.”

John Kerry's Blog

2004-10-11T11:20:00.000-07:00

Did you know that even John Kerry has a blog? Hmmm ... wonder if HE even knows that he has one?
