Growing up in a small Texas town, books were my way to travel the world and open up possibilities for the future. That’s why it was so fun to help @readingconnect build these little libraries where kids can exchange free books. #Greensboro #NC

You whipped that box into shape as fast as you were moving too!
Happy 2 help! This volunteer project was a fun one. @watchdogben and I built a free little library for our project with Reading Connections. Let’s be honest, Ben is a serious builder based on how fast he put it up!

Lots of parents and concerned community members keep reaching out to me because they just heard about this. They need to know what’s happening to make sure their loved ones and friends are safe.
There's no shooter, you don't know anything, so why don't you go back to regular programming? Will you play the Y&R that we missed later? I wouldn't ask this if it was really an active shooter.

With Sheriff Seabolt saying he was seriously injured falling off a ladder like thousands of others every year, it’s a good time to refresh on ladder safety.

Philosophical question of the day: Is picking up pennys off the ground still lucky if you’re the one that dropped them?

I’ve been trying to watch the same hour-long show for two weeks. Time to give it up.
