@pattomasulo help save my marriage. You signed this for us on a studio tour in Jan of 2012. Husband wants me to toss it because it's wearing down. Will you send me a signed pic to replace it? 😆🤞 @WGNMorningNews

It's about that time of year that we, as parents, start begging the inventors of the world to PLEASE CREATE A SUNSCREEN PILL. I'm already over applying and reapplying sunscreen all damn day.

@johnkrasinski @somegoodnews @LimebackArt My 7 year old is putting fun facts in our front window to put smiles on people's faces as they walk by. He loves animals and can spout off so many random facts at any time! We love watching your show!

[Melanie @mundercontrol]

Getting a little morbid around here with our daily fun facts in the window!
