December 27, 2012 2012 is days away from coming to an end. Whether it was a year filled with good or bad, or even ugly, it's time to put 2012 in the past. Why not celebrate the end of one year and beginning of another than with a big bang? And I literally mean a big bang. Here are some of the top firework stands in Tyler to get fireworks for your big New Year's shindig.
Our Christmas became, almost in a matter of hours, a white Christmas. Out of no where we are dealing with low, low temperatures and snow sticking to the ground. For all of East Texas, this is quite a change from our 100 degree summers and mild winters. But, we have to keep in mind that we are not nearly close to how cold it can get.
Well, Christmas has come and gone. All of the egg nog is gone, the Christmas dinner is just left overs, and all of the presents are unwrapped. So, how did it go for you? Did you get everything that you wanted?
This Christmas will not be a white Christmas for East Texans. Some people may be sad for this. With all that comes with snow, this might be a blessing. Watch these hilarious videos to feel a little better about our 60 degree Christmas.
During the holiday season there are lots of chances to drink. When it is time to head home, how will you get there? There are plenty of reasons not to drive after you have been drinking. Will you make the right decision this Christmas?
Just like Y2K, it looks like the Mayan Apocalypse was just another dooms day prediction come and gone with no end of times. For some though, this was a serious scare. They may have started to prepare for it. Maybe you did too. But, what are the ten worst things to have done to get ready for this apocalypse that you will regret tomorrow?
We have all battled a little food poising at least once in our lives. That lunch date out with friends turn into an evening spent with the toilet. Never a pretty sight, is it? With getting sick from restaurant food so common place, why do we keep chancing it?
By Monday and Tuesday we'll be sitting comfortably around the Christmas tree, sipping egg nog with family and trying to figure out how in the world a Furby really works.
In the meantime, it's a big ole traffic jam! Today and tomorrow are two of the busiest travel days of the year.
Triple A estimates 7.7 million Texans will be traveling more than 50 miles from home between Saturday and January 1. Millions of packages are on their way too, but they may not get here by Christmas.
The practices began in the middle of August when it was one hundred degrees preparing for games with one goal in mind - the state championship title game! A couple of East Texas teams have reached that goal and are one win away from gaining that title. The Daingerfield Tigers and Gilmer Buckeyes are playing in their final games today at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington.
Tyler Police are searching for the individuals responsible for shooting 13 vehicles overnight on the lot at Crown Kia/Volkswagen on Troup Highway in Tyler. The building itself also received damage from bullets.
With the horrific tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School last Friday, parents and educators are more concerned for the safety of children in our school system today. Many school districts already have emergency plans in place and carry out disaster drills from time to time to keep their skills sharp if an emergency were to arise on campus. One school district in the state has already given the teachers and administrators the authority to carry concealed weapons through its halls.
It is that time of year again. I am not talking about Christmas gifts, snowmen, New Years, and family. It it the return of McDonald's McRib sandwich. The question is, are you ready for it?
