How Dirty is It? You Don’t Wanna Know Jilda Unruh

Jilda Unruh and Brian Andrews ham it up for his ‘How Dirty Is It’ reports airing on WFOR where places people hang out, and things people touch get swabbed and tested for germs. Hint, your smart phone is gross because it turns out you’re gross!

Personally, we’d rather go through life oblivious to how dirty is it and soap up singing Happy Birthday song for 20 minutes.

If you must know however, here’s how germy Dade transit, and Gov’t Center food court are. [link]

RIP Mr Awesome

I saw a story in passing about a seven-year old boy who got electrocuted when he jumped in his family’s pool. Unplugged from news cycle I didn’t pay much attention to it until I started seeing all these people posing with a drawing of someone called Mr Awesome. Who’s this Mr Awesome I thought?

Calder, it turns out is the son of Chris Sloan, the owner of 2C Media – the local broadcast design powerhouse whose work can be seen all over TV. Mr Awesome is Calder’s nickname, the picture everyone is posing with is self-portrait.

Our condolences to Chris and his family during this difficult time.

Video: Rock On! Julie Durda Aces First Pitch at Marlins Game

On Saturday WPLG meteorologist Julie Durda threw the ceremonial first pitch at the Marlins vs Mariners game. And aced it. Shortly before that she spent a few hours with Marlins pitcher AJ Ramos learning to warm up, exercise and how to throw the ball well. And apparently he thought her well.

Despite all the training and warming up though, Julie says she was sore after the throw and had to ice her arm. But at least it was worth it. Also, the Marlins beat the Marines
