    I love Robin Quivers. I'm not sure where I have been because I didn't even know she had a book out in 1995.

    I knew she had a book but I didn't know she was so charitable.

    Most of the crew is actually charitable. From Artie's cupcake going to St. Jude's Children's Research Hostpital, Gary's cupcake to Life Beat along with Howard and Beth's contributions to several charities...it's great to know that they give back. As funny as it is for the crew to mock Robin, she really does put effort into helping others.
