2011-11-03 00:17:00 If you're like me, and cannot go to BlogWorld Expo Los Angeles 2011, why not get in the way back machine and go back years ago to Las Vegas. For me, this was the first time ever that I got to meet these people in real life (or as the cool kids say - IRL). It was kind of funny because for most of the meeting, we were calling each other our twitter name (mine was "Dr A" back then. You'll see in the videos below just how much fun we had.

Flashback! The New Adventures of the Old Limelight
2010-08-20 20:09:00 Tina Turner with BJ Murray at Limelight, Chicago's ruling nightspot of the mid-'80s. A confession or a plain old fact, depending on how you look at it: I've never stepped stiletto inside Excalibur, River North's mega haunted-house-like nightclub and perennial favorite of Schaumburg bachelorettes. Why not, you ask? Well, I guess the best answer is that I'm more of a lounger than a clubber, and Excalibur packs 'em in 3,000 at a time. (I cannot with the crowds. I really cannot.) But last week, during a conversation with Chicago artist Gary Weidner at Macy's Glamorama fashion show, I learned Excalibur has a past that's a little more recent and a whole lot wilder than the kind that earned the...

Lu also concludes the verse with a powerful Pete Wentz (Of Fall Out Boy) punchline which...
