This happened last Sunday at McCarran International Airport. Passengers were stuck on two consecutive planes on the Las Vegas tarmac for hours without air conditioning or water.…
By Ken Hegan for MSN So I’ve been hunting down interesting summer music festivals. And I’ve found a strange one in Sherwood Forest and Double JJ Ranch near the tiny village of Rothbury, Michigan. It’s called ELECTRIC FOREST, it runs 4 days from June 27-30th this summer, and it’s a trippy mix of jam bands,…
