Let's Talk Weather

As Tropical Storm Fay lingers, it got me to thinking about some storm-related things:

• I hate it when newscasters say, "There is quite a bit of weather going on outside." There is always WEATHER outside, you nincompoops. There is NASTY weather at the moment. Let's not forget our adjectives.
• I realized that I like only 3 newscasters, in this order: Martie Salt, Bob Frier and Lauren Rowe. The rest grate on my nerves. And don't even get me started on the peeps at FOX news. OMG. It's like a high-school news team. Especially the main anchors. They are so opinionated and partial, I can't watch for more than 60 seconds — until the first snide comment comes and I have to turn it off.
• The exception to the awful FOX news people is roving reporter Patrick Pegues. He's a cool dude in my book, and I am glad he is getting some meaty stories to report. I am a bit biased, since I've met him on a few occasions because of Steph and Rob. He was at my table during Steph's wedding reception, and we've both attended cookouts at the Hodge's on occasion, and he is a super-nice and funny guy.
• Because of the high winds, almost all of the billboards along I-4 on my way to work have been taken down. Halleluiah! It's been so refreshing to not be bombarded with useless info and gaudy graphics on the way to work all this week. Why can't we always have high winds?
• Tony Manolfi is the biggest douche for interrupting the end of the men's 20o meter medal race with a redundant weather update. Yes, he waited for Usain Bolt to cross the finish line before he came in with the update (which was basically the same update as 10 minutes prior), but we missed all the afterglow of Bolt winning the gold and beating the world record. We missed the excitement and the joy of the crazed announcers as they celebrated along with Bolt.
• That is all ... for now
