It's back to school for all the public school kids around the State today! 

The first day was always my most dreaded day of the year. I'll never forget my mom walking me to my Kindergarten room where I met my teacher Miss Lydie who handed me a coloring book and crayons. It was the beginning of a stellar Academic career! 

My fondest memory of elementary school was when my Second Grade teacher, Mrs. Tennant, made me Peter Cottontail in the school play. Everything was going great until the middle of the play when my tail fell off. Mrs. Tennant calmly walked on stage and pinned it back on. At that point, they should have renamed the play "Pin The Tail On The Donkey". And that was the beginning (and end) of my stellar Acting career!

Tickets to the Pope's speech in Philadelphia go on sale online tomorrow. 

- Donald Trump said he had no idea he was supposed to speak there, but if Philadelphians want Trump...they'll get Trump!

A study by TravelMath.com found that the dirtiest part of an airport or airplane isn't the restrooms, but the tray tables. 

- And I would have guessed the TSA agents hands.

A new report accuses Taylor Swift of doing drugs during the MTV Video Music Awards. 

- If they're going to accuse her of doing drugs, they should accuse everybody who actually watched the show.

Have a great day and I'll see you back here Wednesday!
