Looking for some people who can take off during the week for some skiing in NY or Vermont.....if you have the midweek flexibility, let me know.

For those looking for some bar crawl fun tomorrow, please consider joining me on my buddy Chris's holiday bar crawl.  Information Item #1.

For those that can not make the bar crawl, how about checking out the Smoke Out Prohibition 2012 event at the Liberty Bell - as the headline reads in the paper: At least 500 people plan to get high at the Liberty Bell

Was reading about Phila school closings....can you believe how much violence there is in these schools?
