Someone left a Large Barbell hoodie at the box. It is hanging on the racks.

Snow, snow, snow. It is supposedly going to accumulate at one inch per hour for up to 12 hours today. Yikes.

What is the best book you have ever read and what is something that very few people know about you?

1) Ishmael by Daniel Quinn
2) I used to be petrified of public speaking so I memorized pages upon pages of text and just recited them.

Let is snow! I finally have a car that won't slide everywhere when there's precipitation on the ground!!!

1) The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein. I say this not because I have never read "Grown up" books but because I think it's very thought provoking. If you're familiar with it, which storyline do you see? The selfless tree who gives all that it has to the little boy? Or the selfish boy who never seems to learn how to provide for himself because the tree continuously gives him all of his wants?

2) Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey Jr. is my 2nd cousin.

1. Proof of Heaven - a neurosurgeon falls into a coma and describes his journey into the afterlife as his body fails. Not as morbid as it sounds. I thought it was a good read.

2. Favorite late night host: Jimmy Fallon. Favorite late night character: SNL's Stephan. Yesyesyesyesyes....
