This Wednesday I wanted to make a point that there are numerous ways to volunteer. I’m not talking about the different organizations you could become a part of. I’m talking about the actual actions you could partake in, or the ways in which you prefer to offer up your time. You get out of your [...]

Did you know that I’ve hidden a quote in a book in the library, and if you find it you can win a Stephen King hardcover novel? Did you know you can rent DVDs out the wazoo down in the lower level of the downtown campus library? Did you know that the library itself is [...]

Mountaineer Life- The Return of PSN May 17, 2011Hail, travelers, I bring good tidings. PSN has been resurrected with rewards aplenty for its jilted customers. Again I refer you folks to this timeline for the full scoop on the PSN Armageddon. A brief commentary on the offered games. Here’s the list from the horse’s mouth. PS3 users can select TWO of the following [...]capnwinters
- Vintage Videos & Games April 29, 2011Greetings folks, and welcome to what may very well be the final post of Mountaineer Life. We are going to look at Vintage Videos & Games, a Morgantown game store located right on High Street. Its storefront includes a lovely display case full of gaming artifacts. The display is certainly intriguing, a definite plus to [...]capnwinters
- Volunteer Abroad April 28, 2011-Picture from Amizade website Can you imagine tutoring children in Mexico or Navajo Nation? Would you like to take care of orphans in Bolivia? How would you feel about assisting on a clean water project in the Amazon? Amizade, pronounced ah-mee-zha-jee, will more than likely have the perfect program for you if you are [...]tonicekada
- Pet Owners: A Unique Breed April 23, 2011This is a wordle I made out of all of my blog posts in MountaineerLife. This is basically my blog in a nutshell!kerigero
- A Meeting of the Minds April 22, 2011Over the past few weeks, I’ve been in the trenches of Morgantown’s gaming scene. We’ve looked at tabletop gaming, a Smash Bros. tournament, and the businesses which sustain these things. West Virginia University, however, has not been featured. Well that’s about to change, as I recently attended a meeting of gamers in WVU’s Cols […]capnwinters
- Neuticles: Because who wouldn’t want fake balls? April 21, 2011The answer is your pet. Neuticles have been around for nearly 16 years. And since the first surgery was performed on a 9-month-old Rottweiler named Max in 1995, more than a quarter of a million cats, dogs, and horses (yes horses) have been “Neuticled” in the U.S. and 49 other countries. What exactly are Neuticles [...]kerigero
- Women against rape April 20, 2011-WAR’s facebook page So far, I have discussed attending events, local organizations, and short-term/long-term means of a way to do volunteer work. This week’s post is about joining a club on campus. This should hopefully be a more convenient way for busy students to offer their time to the community because, well, we [...]tonicekada
- Racquetball: It’s Not For the Faint of Heart April 16, 2011I’ve been looking forward to this story more then any other. It’s ironic, of course, that I am running late on posting it to Mountaineer Life. Please forgive me. Yesterday, at U92, we had our annual reunion sports talk show, bringing back hosts from the last several years and having them on for what turned [...]awieders
- Grey Hound Rescue April 14, 2011For my post this week I’ve decided to touch on a little known issue: Grey Hound Rescue. I did a radio story on this issue about a year and a half ago (one of my first broadcast stories) and thought that it would be a good and different way to blog this week…I just added [...]kerigero
- Take a walk in someone else’s shoes April 13, 2011This past Sunday, I helped women and children in Africa get clean water. My dear mother and I participated in the 4th annual Amizade water walk. Our mission was to raise money and awareness for the women who have to walk up to 3-4 hours just for a bucket of clean water, and the children [...]tonicekada
