    Artie, it's probably just the Mexicans testing the arms package we sold to them (for pure tracking reasons only of course).

    .... Fucking ATF......

    Apparently, there have been some pretty strong opinions about her competence as a weather gal. She was referred to as "a pair of talking breasts" on one message board, undoubtedly by a female viewer.
    I go to lunch on Tuesdays at a sub shop that has a TV usually tuned to the station for which she works. Whenever the weather report comes on, every guy in the place stops to watch. And I don't think they care about the relative humidity.

    My guess is the audience is hoping for really cold weather--at least inside the studio.

    We have funky names for some of our towns, even ones that weren't drived from Native-American terms.
    There are several towns in the Cape Cod area that end with "ham" that sound like they're two separate words - i.e. Westham is pronounced "West Ham," Wareham is pronounced "Where Ham" (in the smokehouse, being cured ... but I digress) and Eastham is pronounced "East Ham," etc.
    Then you've got the stuffy Brahmins who live in Chatham who pronounce their town "Chat-um." Woe is the neophyte news person who drops a "Chat Ham" on the air.

    Turns out it was a practice flyover for tonight's Fourth of July festivities in Boston that no one from Boston attends anymore.

    Just watched the news. Nothing about marauding Canadians crossing the border. Just the new Hispanic weather girl with the enormous breasts continuing to mispronounce "Piscataqua" like there's steam escaping from her head.

    Anyone check the news? We've had four military flyovers in the last half-hour. And I mean they're CLOSE. Window-rattling close.
    Are the Canadians invading? OK, they can have New Hampshire. And northern Maine. And pretty much everything in Vermont except for Burlington and the Ben & Jerry's factory. Even though Ben and Jerry went corporate a long time ago, their Cookies & Cream is the best on the planet.
