Mad Libs for 2K

I think I shocked Roy today during The Morning Waking Crew by admitting I've never played Mad-Libs. It was very clear I had no idea what I was doing! We were playing 'Swift-Libs,' qualifying listeners for their chance at the final 'win 'em before you can buy 'em' tickets to see Taylor at Gillette in July. The tickets went on sale this morning at 10am. Hopefully, you got your tickets or were one of the lucky few who won them on The Morning Waking Crew.

Weather

Snow showers end during the morning hours followed by clearing , breezy at times, high 43...34 in the North Country. Your weekend forecast.
