'All of a sudden, all hell breaks loose': Hagerty's review of Olive Garden becomes Internet sensation

'All of a sudden, all hell breaks loose': Hagerty's review of Olive Garden becomes Internet sensation "Because the restaurant was the Olive Garden," reporter Dave Kolpack writes, "Marilyn Hagerty's earnest assessment swiftly became an Internet sensation, drawing comments both sincere and sarcastic from food bloggers and others.

Remembering James Kilpatrick, 89, conservative columnist , wordsmith, half of '70s '60 Minutes' segment pair PressPass

James J. Kilpatrick's in-your-face, conservative bickering with liberal commentator Shana Alexander three decades ago was famously parodied — and then copied for years to come on broadcast and cable channels.

Driving watercraft demands attention, common sense, too PressPass

To anyone ever taking a spin for the first time on an all-terrain vehicle, dirt bike, motorcycle or snowmobile in the winter, a few basic requirements such as how to steer and where the gas, clutch, and brakes are is standard operating procedure.

ALWAYS IN SEASON: Swallows mount aggressive defense of their space PressPass

ALWAYS IN SEASON: Swallows mount aggressive defense of their space Barn swallows have nested on two separate buildings, and they seem to be competing for air space. They’ve certainly become more determined to guard their own territories. Both broods have hatched, but the young are still confined to nests.

Such a contest would be a clash of titans, just the fix that political junkies seek. Alas, it is not likely to happen.
