If you are a fan of HQ Trivia, you must watch this video of an out-of-nowhere game that I got an alert on my phone about […]
Words by Jennifer EssickPhotos by Jennifer Essick and Kerry Speckman Located near the Northside of Jacksonville, Catty Shack Ranch Wildlife Sanctuary is an amazing place that gives homes to exotic big cats in need. The sanctuary houses lions, tigers, cougars, leopards, bobcats and more all obtained from individuals who had illegal ownership or kept them […]
As if I needed another reason to love Sun-Ray Cinema, Tim and Shana have introduced TAPPED OUT TUESDAYS where all regular screenings, all day, every Tuesday are only $5 (technically, $5.35 with tax). That’s a savings of up to 55 percent off regular-price, evening screenings (at least that’s what Siri told me … I suck at math). With […]

Baseball’s never been tartar! (“Tartar,” as in “tartar sauce,” as in stuff you dip shrimp in … hey, I’m writing this at 6:12 in the morning, so cut me some slack). The Jacksonville Shrimp home opener is Wednesday, April 11 and is followed by four games against the Mobile BayBears. But I don’t know the […]
