Tim McGraw is the son of Tug McGraw, who played 19 seasons in Major League Baseball from 1965 to 1984 . . . so this is appropriate: Tim will headline the first-ever, all-day concert event at the legendary Field of Dreams field in Dyersville, Iowa on August 30th.  And he's doing it to pay tribute to his father . . .

Happy Quitter's Day!  The second Friday in January is when people are most likely to throw in the towel on their New Year's resolutions.  But here are three times when it might actually MAKE SENSE to give up on your goal . . . or at least reassess it.   1.  When you're motivated by the wrong reasons.  Sometimes, we pursue a goal just to prove other people wrong or soothe our own fear of failure.  But when a goal doesn't align with your core values and needs, it's hard to stay motivated. 2.  When your goal no longer resonates with [...]

Popcorn buckets became a thing in 2024 . . . from the unintentionally sexual one given out for "Dune" to the popcorn CASKET offered at "Nosferatu" screenings.   But the Cinemark theater chain is taking things to the EXTREME.  On Sunday, January 19th . . . which just happens to be National Popcorn Day . . . they're running a BRING YOUR OWN BUCKET promotion.   You can bring in any container you want, as long as it's "clean and sanitized" and can hold popcorn, and they'll fill it for just FIVE BUCKS.  But if they decide it's not safe to use, they [...]

The "New York Post" created a list of Christmas movies with each zodiac sign in mind.  Here's which movie you should watch, based on your sign, and a short explanation:   Aries:  "A Christmas Story" . . .
