Life sure is funny. It's hard to imagine doing anything else because it's still so much fun! Every morning on the show I interview different community members about events or issues. I really enjoy this because it connects me even more to the community and I get to find out about all the great things our area in beautiful central New York has to offer. I'm a hometown girl.

BOSNIAN MAN'S HOUSE HIT BY METEORITES SIX TIMES
A Bosnian man believes he is being targeted by extraterrestrials after his house has been hit by a sixth meteorite. Radivoje Lajic, who lives in the northern village of Gornji Lajici, says the plague of meteorites began in 2007. Experts at Belgrade University have confirmed that all the falling rocks he has handed over were meteorites. They are now trying to figure out what exactly it is about his house that particularly attracts them. The strikes always happen when it is raining heavily, he says, never when there are clear skies. After the fifth rock struck his house, Lajic said: "I am obviously being targeted by extraterrestrials. I don't know what I have done to annoy them but there is no other explanation that makes sense. The chance of being hit by a meteorite is so small that getting hit six times has to be deliberate."
Man hopes to be crowned 'World's smallest'
A 40-year-old from a village in south west China is hoping to claim the title of world's shortest man.
At just 76cm (just under two feet, six inches) Huang Kaiquan is only 1.4cm higher than previous record holder He Pingping, who died in March aged 21. Huang, who smokes heavily and is a former magician, is the height and weight of an average three year old. In Sanjiang village, Huang is known to locals as 'Short Brother'. He still lives with his mother Cheng. She said: "He didn't grow at all one month after birth. We thought it's just late development and didn't pay enough attention. "When Huang was three, he still wore the clothes of a one-year-old. It was then we noticed his unusualness."
