Not sure what to get mom this Sunday? Q103′s Dalton Castle is here to help. Though his method may be disturbing, and we think you can probably skip it (sneaking a picture of mom coming out of the shower sounds like the worst thing we can imagine), Dalton’s sentiment is dead-on: People like having sex, and [...]

Why are moms awesome? Here are (just a few) reasons why moms are awesome. 1. Moms will teach you not to be afraid to fall down. Even if you don’t want to learn. 2. Moms don’t mind getting wet in the rain for you. 3. One word — cookies. 4. Dad jokes are embarrassing. Mom [...]

The 10 Worst Moms in Pop Culture

Donald Deane — Fri, 10 May 2013 11:04:09 +0000

If movies and TV have taught us anything, it's that all mothers are NOT created equal. While some fictional moms might be willing to play the doting matriarch, others engage in twisted mind games, dole out severe corporal punishment and even commit murder most foul. Think about that the next time you forget to call your mom on Mother's Day.

5 Awesome Notes To Kids By Moms

Stephanie McMaster — Thu, 09 May 2013 13:40:20 +0000

Mothers have been communicating with their children via handwritten notes for years. Some mothers put more of a humorous spin on their notes than others, however. With Mother's Day right around the corner, we're hoping the children of the moms behind these hilarious notes have something awesome planned for them:

Awesome Mom Plays Black Keys on the Spoons

Emerald Catron — Tue, 07 May 2013 18:52:13 +0000

Don’t be confused by the fact that this video starts with a lady feeding a bunch of kangaroos — this IS a video of a lady rocking out on the spoons. The kangaroo intro merely adds to its general amazingness. Deb “Spoons” Perry really likes ‘Lonely Boy’ by the Black Keys, and so she decided [...]

Unfortunately, not all moms have a warm, motherly heart; here’s our list of 10 Mothers Only a [...]

10 Things No One Should EVER Give Mom on Mother's Day

Stephanie McMaster — Fri, 03 May 2013 21:34:24 +0000

Shopping for Mom can be stressful. She’s the woman who brought you into the world, who cleaned your face with her own spit when you were little, who asked you on a daily basis if you were raised in a barn (and did so lovingly). There’s no gift that can thank her for all that [...]

Wow Mom With Impressive Macaroni Art This Mother's Day

Stephanie McMaster — Sun, 28 Apr 2013 21:34:48 +0000

Macaroni art is as much a part of Mother’s Day as brunch and sentimental cards featuring sunrises. If you have a mom, chances are that, at some point, you showed your love for her via dry pasta. If you are a mom, you’ve probably re-glued that one piece of macaroni that keeps falling off the frame [...]

Mom's Pearls of Wisdom

106.9 The Rock — Fri, 01 Apr 2011 13:00:59 +0000

This is 'take two' for me. I was almost finished typing my blog and my 2 year old pressed the power button on my laptop. Of course, I didn’t save it and I couldn’t find the recovery file! Never a dull moment around here!

The first call I made upon the erasing of my blog was one of desperation to my mother. She is my ‘go to’ girl for anything that I need advice about. What better person than one who has been through, and survived, three children? If one of my kids does something awful, I call her. If I need motivation to clean my house (or write my blog) I call her!
