Wednesday 9/9 Live Blog

How does one go about recognizing the significance of a day like 9/9/09?

For some reason it makes you feel sad, doesn't it? You're forced to face your own mortality in a way. Take no moment for granted. Tell your family you love them. Oh, and don't forget to pick up this month's Marie Claire to see Drew Barrymore and Ellen Page smooching it up for the camera.

Rick Collins put us through the Alpha Male Challenge, a 10-week plan designed to burn fat, gain muscle, and build true "alpha attitude." We took the shorter 5-minute course, with minimal results. Get your alpha roll on and find the book at Rick's website.

The American Lighthouse Cookbook features stories and recipes from America's shorelines, including a few in our area.

Vote for Pedro! Actor Efren Ramirez joined us to talk about his role as "Venus" in Crank 2: High Voltage, released on DVD yesterday. Efren has also appeared in Nacho Libre and Gamer...but is best known for his role in Napoleon Dynamite. Keep up with the latest Efren news at his website.
