    Looks like even the most loyal tanning-bed goers are learning that the sun is bad. It's about time! This week Snooki (real name Nicole Polizzi) shot a video for Sunlove, a sunless tanner at Belmont Lounge in New York City. We stopped by for some one-on-one time to find out about her tanning habits-and poof-creating products.

    When did you start using self-tanner?
    "I just heard about Sunlove not too long ago and then I tried it out. It doesn't leave your face greasy, and there's no bad smell to it like other spray tans. I never used spray tanners until this one because I usually just went tanning. But you know after the taxing, you don't want to deal with that, and friggin' cancer-so this is a great product to replace all the bad stuff of tanning."

    So do you think you'll use self-tanner going forward rather than hitting the tanning beds?
    "Oh yeah, definitely, definitely."

    1. I-55 in Louisiana
    "The second you cross the Mississippi state line into Louisiana heading south, it's like driving on a washboard. You can close your eyes and know. I had a cup full of soda one day, and the road literally rattled it right out of the drink holder and all over the floor of my truck. God help you if you think you're going to play a CD going down there." - Trucker Kevin Johnson, Rushville, Illinois

    2. I-12 east of Baton Rouge
    "It's one of our deadliest stretches of highways because it goes from six lanes down to four lanes. They're widening it now, but just another two exits because they don't have the dollars to finish. So that will just carry the problem farther down the road." - Jennifer Marusak,

    You could have sworn it was still winter… that is until your clock "sprung forward" taking away an hour of your precious sleep. And suddenly you realized- it's spring! But more than rising an hour early and a noticeable increase in both bee and butterfly population, spring means it's time to hit the beach.
