I think that the holidays feel like frozen noses. I love walking with the dog for long periods of time.

Hopefully it's snowing and you've got to wrap up warm. So I think a frozen nose is a sweaty armpit

John Colhane is a professor at the Delaware School of Law. He calls reporting on the Depp trial.

He was using the blood to write graffiti. Oh, and the poop.

Johnny Depp is alleging that his wife pooped on a bed to express how angry she was with him.
