  • My PJTV Segment: It's Like The Sopranos!

    These are my notes from yesterday’s Pajamas TV segment, which was live yesterday. If you check this page, you can see the video. I’m slated to be on again this Friday, October 24, at 6:00 pm Eastern. It’s easy to pick on the Garden State of New Jersey, almost too easy. Like shooting fish in…
