I’m a sucker for these kinds of stories with families being surprised by their military loved ones.
This one happened at a high school in New Jersey. The entire school set up an elaborate plan with a Lost and Found Day where students could claim lost stuff. But it wasn’t real at all. Just a big setup in order to surprise one of their teachers who has a song in the military. He had been stationed in Iraq and she hadn’t seen him in over a year! You can imagine her surprise when she realized what was happening. Here is the video of how it all went down.

There are so many colors in the world, but can you actually own a color? Some companies do.
Places like UPS, T-Mobile, Target, Tiffany and Co., and that Tar Heal baby blue that University of North Carolina uses all have trademarks on those signature colors. So that Target red… you can’t get anywhere else. Just Target. It’s their color.
Now I want my own color!

Steve and Lucy are planning their fall wedding and Lucy has an idea- dogs! She wants to invite their guests to bring their dogs to the party. She even okayed it with the venue.

It’s always fun to see our fellow Connecticut residents compete on TV. There has been a bunch of Food Network shows, Jeopardy, and more over the years. But there is something REALLY impressive about American Ninja Warrior.
Jordan Carr from Easton, CT has been competing for two years on American Ninja Warrior Jr. Which I didn’t even know existed until now. But she has now been bumped up to the Ninja big leagues and will compete on the real prime time American Ninja Warrior which premieres tonight (Monday 6/6/22) at 8 p.m. on NBC.
Jordan is a trainer at New York City Ninja Academy and also used to compete as a rock climber before that.
We’ll be watching and cheering you on. Go Jordan!

If you were at the beach or in a pool over the weekend you might have noticed the thing that always happens to your fingers when you stay in the water too long… they get all wrinkly! But why does this happen? It’s actually really interesting phenomenon.
It’s really just the blood vessels below the skin starting to constrict, which a lot of scientists say it the body’s way of helping us out when it comes to picking up wet objects. Part of our evolution as a species. What?! Yup. It’s true. There was even a study done back in 2013 that has been published in Biology Letters where the scientists found that people with wrinkled fingers were faster at picking up items under water like marbles, rather than the people with unwrinkled fingers. There was no difference when they did it with dry objects out of the water though.
Fascinating. Science!
