"I love my cigar," Groucho famously told a couple on his quiz show who had 22 children, "but I take it out of my mouth once in a while." Well, I love to eat, but I find it helps to stop doing it for a few weeks a year. I used to pause this way for... More »
DeLessio Is More

By Bonnie Wach | Wed, July 13, 2005
