Can you believe your eyes?


Nuclear accident? World's worst case of heartburn? No just a frog who ate a fly on a Christmas light. Good news, the light was removed and the frog is happily chasing flies.

Reasons I love Country


The Country Music genre is such a cool thing. There is no other type of music that allows you to connect with an artist the way Country Music does. Case in point: Keith Urban.

Eight year old Matthew Pinkham and his mom Becky went to a Keith Urban concert in Louisville, Kentucky. It was like something out of a movie. The Pinkhams were in the second row. Out of the blue a man offered to boost Matthew up on his shoulders so that Urban could see the little boy's sign. You see Matthew had a sign that read "I want to play 'Kiss a Girl' with you." Keith not only saw the sign, he also motioned for Matthew to come up on stage where the eight year old proceeded to play guitar with his hero. What an amazing moment in this young mans life.

A little back ground on Matthew. He had to go through Nashville's Vanderbilt Children's Hospital for a bone disease. While he was there he had a chance to meet Dierks Bentley and get Dierk’s autograph on his guitar. His guitar now sports Keith Urban’s signature as well. Speaking of Keith, on his website he referred to Matthew as "the bomb." I’m pretty sure Matthew feels the same way.

There you have it, a warm fuzzy to go. You’ve got to love Country.


Here is a link to the video. It's shaky. I'm guessing it was Matthew's mom who shot the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGX6kfSyrtg
