It's Tuesday which means I have to try something new that Val basically decides for me. Since we were at the Niagara County Fair last week, Val had me ride 'Rudy' the camel.

It's Tony Tries Tuesday and this week I am taste testing a classic beverage from the early '90s - ZIMA.  If you were around back then you remember this drink being all the rage for 5 minutes and then disappearing, kind of like the Macarena.  ...

It's a bird...it's a plane...it's...Tony Tries Tuesday!  On this edition I try and conquer my fear of the 'Ride of Steel' at Darien Lake Theme Park.  Val Townsend forced me to do it but that doesn't mean I went without a fight!   If you are not familiar, Darien Lake's 'Ride of Steel' (commonly referred to as the Superman), is a roller coaster that reaches a height of 208 feet and 75 mph.  Now I am

We had another special Tony Tries this week, where Val comes up with ways to humiliate me.  This week she had me try out Lipsense makeup.  Not only did I have to wear the makeup, I had to put it on myself!   We were lucky enough to have Jill, our Lipsense distributor, stop by and supply the goods to help make me look more beautiful.  Would it wor...
