Growing up in New Orleans, I knew I wanted to be a DJ since I was a kid. I eventually got the opportunity to be on-air and haven't looked back since. Being in radio, I've had the opportunity to DJ at clubs across the gulf coast. I was raised on Star Wars, spent post-college years with South Park, and am a fan of Game of Thrones and living the cruise ship life (rarely).

Insane Blob Launch [VIDEO]
With summer coming, you may ask yourself, "Self, what can I do for fun at the Point this year?". Well, if you have one of these at your camp, you'll have plenty of fun, and possibly a few trips to the hospital.
Jennifer Lopez – ‘People Magazine’ Most Beautiful Woman 2011
Not too long ago, Jennifer Lopez had in the same week the number one song in the country, the number one movie in America and was on the cover or Rolling Stone. Things haven't slowed Jenny from the Block too much with her judging stint on American Idol and her continued music career and marriage to Marc Anthony (plus raising children as well)...
Insane Tumbling Abilities [VIDEO]
Now I'll admit, when walking around the Cajun Heartland State Fair and I pass by the "spinny" rides, the ones my kids want to go on but I won't let them go by themselves, I get an incredibly painful feeling that starts in the back of my head and works down to my stomach at the thought of strapping myself into those machines and praying that yesterday's lunch doesn't come back up to haunt
Kid Gets A Rebecca Black Tattoo
Seriously, I know just because I post alot of stories about Rebecca Black, don't get it twisted. This kid has an obsession with Rebecca that goes a little past the norm. MTV.com reports:
"I really didn't like how so many people were talking bad about her. There's no reason for people to say that stuff. She's only 13."
Watch Out For The Eunice Serpent
With all the news coverage regarding the snake that escaped from the Bronx Zoo, little attention had been paid to the local snake who has been roaming around Acadiana, the Eunice Serpent. For those of you who aren't familiar, you can follow his actions on Twitter...
Bieber Hits Paparazzi With Scooter [VIDEO]
I'm not too keen on paparazzi when they get too invasive on a celebrity and then get mad when the celebrity is trying to get away. Justin Bieber drove a little to close to a paparazzo in Israel on his scooter, then is chased down by the photographer.
6 Year Old Girl Gets Patted Down At Airport [VIDEO]
In a "how much is too much" story, a 6 year old girl gets a pat down and possibly a drug test (if you listen to the audio at the end) the New Orleans airport. It's a sad state of affairs that this has to happen, and even sadder that the TSA had to add this to their routine because someone in the past used their child to transport items on a plane, or worse.
How Many Calories Did You Eat? There’s An App For That
If you've got an iPhone, and are wondering what that meal you're about to eat will cost you at the gym (or the store where you'll have to up-size your outfits), there's an app that will allow you to take a picture of your meal and will calculate the amount of calories in your meal.
Rebecca Black’s ‘Friday’ Breaks Record
No April Fool's joking here. Rebecca Black's 'Friday' Video has surpassed Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' and Justin Bieber's 'Pray' videos, surpassing 100 million views. If you take into account all of the parody videos (including my favorite from the Jimmy Fallon Show) and features on nightly newscasts, etc., it has surpassed 200 million views.
Happy Birthday Hugh Hefner
It's hard to believe that only 85 years ago, lil Hugh Hefner was born. He'll be celebrating with his 24 year old fiance at the Palms in Las Vegas today. Wonder if Holly Madison is a lil jealous...no matter. It's actually a dual celebration as his son Marston turns 21 today as well.
U.S. Government Keeps Working, Budget Passed
In what is a relief to government employees and members of the military serving abroad and back at home, democrats and republicans managed to push a bill through that would keep the government rolling along. They managed to make $38 billion in tax cuts...
Website Takes Credit For Sending Idol’s Toscano Home
If you were as surprised at the seemingly early departure of American Idol hopeful Pia Toscano, you're not alone. Even celebrities including Tom Hanks tweeted "Don't have an IDOL habit, but how could the USA vote Pia off? I may be done for the season! HANX". While the rest of America is recovering from this shocker, at least one website is celebrating.
Snooki And JWoww Get Show
In the "Saw that one coming a mile away" category, Snooki and JWoww are getting their own spin-off show on MTV. It will give the viewers a glimpse of what life and love is like once vacation is over on the Jersey Shore.
Mom Wants Weekly Child Support For McDonald’s Meals For Kids
I've been around for a while, and I must admit, I've had my share of happy meals over the years. However, not sure if this counts as cost of living in a child support case.
There must be something in the fries at McDonald's for a mother to think she'd win a court case that demanded weekly child support funds to sustain her kids' Golden Arches habit.
Japan Rocked By Another Earthquake
Adding insult to injury, still recovering from the earthquake in March, Japan has been hit by another earthquake, this time a 7.4 off Miyagi, which is not too far away from Fukishima. From the Associated Press:
Second Grader Maced By Police
How young is too young? Having a graduate of second grade, I find it a little hard to believe that law enforcement had to resort to using mace (and having accidentally sprayed some mace and clearing out my entire house), it seems a little much, but then again, I wasn't there.
‘Pride And Prejudice And Zombies’ May Have Director
Having not read what I was supposed to in high school, I missed out on some of the classics, which I also didn't catch when they were turned into movies. However, this one kinda caught my eye. According to Deadline.com,
Craig Gillespie will soon be set as director of Pride And Prejudice And Zombies, Lionsgate's adaptation of the Seth Grahame-Smith novel that enhanced the Jane Austen classic with a
Cool Billboard Pic – Highway Hotwheels
Gotta love imagination. I'd love to see this on an overpass here in Lafayette, even better if it was an actual road instead of a billboard. Probably not as safe though. I could never get my hotwheels to stay on the track. Couldn't imagine the real thing being much easier...
Kirstie Alley Tumbles on DWTS
I remember when Kirstie Alley was known for her weight falling from her diet program. Now, the rest of her has fallen as well. No season of 'Dancing With the Stars' would be complete without one of its stars falling live on the air, and last night, season 12 found its first victim: Kirstie Alley.
Girl Can’t Shut Her Mouth
I'm not saying she talks too much, she literally can't shut her mouth. This video is funny as well as uncomfortable (especially when they begin to reset her jaw back where it belongs). Thanks to Buzzfeed.com for hunting down this one.
