Emilio sent in this snap of his latest Goodwill Trophy.

Emilio admires Sally Jessy's eye wear. Sally Jessy admires Emilio's Snuggie.

“During my Pre-Snuggie days, which I refer to as my own personal Dark Ages, the book selection at the local Goodwill consisted of multiple copies of John Grisham, and that mostly complete Encyclopedia set that I’ve had my eye on for the longest time. Then, I wore the Snuggie on half-price day, on the Yellow Stickered items only, mind you. And BAM! Sally Jessy Raphael’s book practically lept off the shelf into my unrestricted hands…And look, I get goosebumps just thinking about it, although I’m toasty warm in my Snuggie. Here’s a Yellow sticker on the spine. Half off! Coincidence?

…and get this. The title of Sally’s book – “Sally: Unconventional Success”. You could say the same for what I’m wearing – “Snuggie: Unconventional Success”. Coincidence? Goosebumps.”

We left Emilio to his shopping, who ended up taking home that 1990 Brittanica set with only the letters ‘Q’ and ‘L’ missing. Whoa – 1990 was also the year Sally’s book was published. Coincidence? Goosebumps.

NOTE TO THE YOUNG AMONG US: Sally Jessy Raphael is not a lesser-known Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. She hosted a talk show in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and the book that Emilio is holding in his Snuggie hands currently ranks as the #2,573,380 best seller on Amazon.com. Sally’s still making a cultural impact.
