Often we don't print the question because it's obvious in the answer.
These questions have all been emailed to this website.

Yes, we went boar hunting.

Yes, I own all 5 of the ORIGINAL Planet of the Apes movies.
Yes we went to high school together.
No we did not meet in prison.
Favorite Live Event you covered? Woodstock 2 in the mud.

he put me in Escape from LA - very cool.
Favorite Human interest Story? This past year I covered dozens
on Home Delivery. Sheila you were great, The Henson family
rocked, and many more (you know who you are). There was one, Beth,
an aerobics instructor who lost her leg in a motorcycle accident. The
fact that her insurance company would not pay for her $40,000 dollar
prosthetic leg was devastating. Home Delivery and Next Step
Prosthetics gave her the new leg . Powerful story.

ARTICLE


On 'Cash in the Attic,' Odds & Ends Justify Means
By Marisa Guthrie
NY DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

Winning the lottery has become a pillar of the American Dream.HGTV's "Cash in the Attic" capitalizes on that collective wishful thinking, sending appraisers to the homes of people who are looking to unload something old to buy something new. "It's really an insight into human nature and this retentive quality that we have," said John Sencio, who as host has visited dozens of dens of disarray. The strangest collection Sencio has come across: toothpaste tubes, some empty, some not.Sencio's father is also the family pack rat. He has 5,000 vinyl record albums. His mother's favorite day of the week, on the other hand, is garbage day. So the question has become: To sell or not to sell the vinyl collection?
"That has been a discussion in my family for 20 years," said Sencio. "I don't know how I'd feel about it. That would be a big moment in the Sencio mythology. That would be a fundamental shift."
