By: Sandy Nelson snelson

Mar 29 2013
I think that this “Best of” Flashback Fridays, which originally ran on July 13, 2012, is the perfect pick for this week, but that doesn’t mean it was an easy choice to make.  I must admit that it was always one of my favorites, since Brian shared not only his ever-present knowledge of airports and airplanes, but also, in this one, his personal memories of his Dad.  It’s clear... read more

SWA Stew: Episode 51 (#StopBullying)

By: Brooks Thomas bthomas

Jun 22 2012
So we love to joke around on the Stew.  We make fun of each other WITH each other. Not at each other.  Bullying sucks.  It's not cool, and it can happen to anyone.  Even though it shouldn't.  Ever. You may have heard of Karen Klein, whose bullying story has swept the nation.  We're not replaying the video associated with her story.  Enough people have seen... read more

Bringing in The New Year With a Splash

By: Kari Kennedy kkennedy

Jan 03 2012
Nothing prepares you for the cold rush that takes your breath away.  Your limbs contract and pure survival mode kicks in to get you out of the freezing water.  The problem is, the air is even colder. And that’s how I started out my New Year this year, at an ice dive just outside Minneapolis.  Let me just start out by saying that by nature, I’m a lizard.  Heat makes me happy.... read more
