Drew

Hmm…where to begin?  I am a Colorado native, born in Denver and raised in Aurora.  I moved to Fort Collins in 2004 after being accepted to Colorado State University.  I immediately fell in love with Northern Colorado. In May of 2008, I graduated from CSU with a degree in Journalism and Technical Communication.  While I was a student, I spent countless hours at student-run KCSU, dreaming of one day working for a professional radio station.  Finally having the chance to work here at The Point is really a dream come true.  There’s nothing I’d rather be doing. My favorite bands/artists include Great Big Sea, Reel Big Fish, 3 Doors Down, Imogen Heap, Green Day, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Barenaked Ladies, Flogging Molly, Counting Crows, Blue October, The Fray, Michael Bublé, Nickelback, The Offspring and Tenacious D, to name a few. Thanks for tuning in to Today’s Best Music on 99.9 The Point!

Jerk Driver Wrecks Lamborghini – Drew’s [VIDEO] of the Day

Whenever a jerk in a sports car cuts me off in traffic, or speeds past me going 40mph over the speed limit, the only thing that keeps me in check is the hope that someday, either the police or the drivers' own stupidity will catch up with them.

Misophonia: ‘Hatred of Sound’ – Daily Dose of Weird [VIDEOS]

Nails on a chalkboard.  The mere thought of this sound makes me cringe, and I know I'm not the only one.  But did you know that some people can be sent into a rage or made sick by some sounds?  It's called misophonia; and as people like Emma Riehl know, it can be quite debilitating.

Should ‘All You Can Eat’ Restaurants Be Allowed to Cut People Off? Daily Dose of Weird [VIDEOS][POLL]

I worked in retail for over three years.  While it's not quite the same as food service, I did learn one truth that applies to both industries: Whenever a business runs a special promotion, at least one person will take extreme advantage of it and ruin it for everyone else.

Real Starship Enterprise Just 20 Years Away? Stuff That’s Cool [VIDEOS]

If you know me, you also know I'm a Star Trek fan.  I don't think I'm quite as hard core a fan as some folks, but I did go to the Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas a few times before they tore it out.  So I'm enough of a fan to think that building a real, working USS Enterprise starship is a fantastic idea.  One engineer has that dream, and he says it's completely possible with current technology.
