Time is the only thing you can spend once. As we go into Father’s Day weekend, that’s something to definitely remember. Being a father, bringing another life into the world, is an amazing experience and responsibility, and it gives you a blessing in time to spend with a person who will always be a part […]
What did you have for breakfast this morning? Orange juice? Me, too! Coffee? Me, too! Leftover pizza? Me, too! I guess there must be some special bond between us. Something unique. Something real. You know, I haven’t felt this way since I read that Charlize Theron likes to drink Red Bull — just as I […]
First off, I’d like to say this week is my birthday, and because of that, I’m giving myself and all of us, really, the gift that keeps on giving, mostly because it’s posted on the internet and the internet never forgets. No, not a nude picture, but an entertainment column. (I said GIFT, not curse.) […]
The following column is from Sean Leary’s latest book, Sean Leary’s Greatest Hits, Vol. 9: Not A Fit For Print, available on Amazon.com.

It’s important to have the vision to see the potential of someone or something, and not just the sight to see what they are now. In early 1977, George Lucas screened an early cut of “Star Wars” for a number of filmmakers and studio executives. It was before all the special effects were finished on […]
If you have small children, more than likely Satan is in your house. But he doesn’t wear black robes. He’s seldom seen spinning Led Zeppelin records backward. And he’s not the one that keeps flicking on “Real Housewives” and laughing when you’re not in the room. That’s the ghost of your great-great-great-Uncle George. Actually, he’s […]
The controversy continues over Dylan Mulvaney and her Bud Light can, and goobers like Kid Rock who are buying the beer just so they can shoot their crossbows at it or whatever on dumb TikTok videos. Bud Light’s executives issued a somewhat apology about the whole thing this week, but, as I said in my […]
Every week, we provide you with a huge calendar of activities that will take place in the Quad-Cities area over the coming week. Because we love you. And because it’s our job … to love you.
