December 5, 2013 Take the two minutes to watch this video. I guarantee it's the craziest fight you've ever seen. I don't know if you'll get to see a fight quite that wild this weekend, but there's definitely going to be some great MMA action in Mid-Missouri this weekend!
December 4, 2013 Winter is coming, the temperature is dropping and snow is in the forecast. I don't know about you, but I hate sitting in a freezing cold car. Well luckily you won't have to freeze when we "Winterize Your Ride," thanks to Creative Car Audio in Sedalia.
December 4, 2013 Everyone is probably familiar with Time Magazine's annual "Person of the Year" issue. It features a person or group that for better or for worse has done the most to influence the events of the year. Right now in a poll Miley Cyrus is actually leading the vote.
A while ago I asked who do you think should be the Time Person of the Year, which gave me a better idea: who do you think should be the Sedalia Person of the Year?
December 3, 2013 Smith-Cotton High School's robotics team "Team SCREAM" has been awarded a $5,000 grant from NASA for the second year in a row. The grant goes toward Team SCREAM's registration fee for the FIRST Robotics Greater Kansas City Regional competition in March.
I think this is awesome. Hats off to the Smith-Cotton Robotics program. I don't know what kinds of things they're going to do at this competition, or what they're going to build, but I really hope it's Battlebots.
December 2, 2013 I grew a beard out for No Shave November. It's pretty scraggly. I've been waiting all month to shave, but now that November is finally over, I'm wondering if I should just keep it since I took all this time to grow it.
December 2, 2013 This Thanksgiving, I had the chance to head to the Plaza in Kansas City with my friend Kevin Walker and his nephews for the annual KCP&L Plaza Lighting. It was actually my first time at the Plaza, and it was a lot of fun.
November 27, 2013 On Tuesday night (Nov 26), I was lucky enough to participate in the Child Safe Dessert Auction at the Celebration Center in Sedalia. It was a great event that raised over $5,000 for the Child Safe program of Central Missouri.
November 27, 2013 The night before Thanksgiving is generally considered to be the biggest bar night of the year. Most everybody has the next day off, friends and family you don't always get to see are in town, and nobody wants to entertain at home when they're going to be doing so much cooking the next day. So everyone goes out to party!
November 26, 2013 I found a pretty interesting article about a weird Thanksgiving tradition from the past. About 100 years ago, kids didn't go trick-or-treating on Halloween, they did it on Thanksgiving. It was called "Thanksgiving Masking." Kids would dress up as beggars and hobos, wear masks and go door-to-door for candy and pennies. No one's exactly sure when it ended, but it lasted in some areas through the 1920s.
November 21, 2013 Well, I made it another week without being fired, so here's another Off the Trail Track for you. Every week we’ll select an album and showcase a song from it that you’re unlikely to hear on the radio any time soon, and give you the chance to listen to it here on our website.This week we're featuring Blake Shelton's "I Still Got a Finger" from his album 'Based on a True Story.'
