"Back in my day we didn't have heat waves. Every last one of us walked around with a huge block of ice taped to our ass...and we liked it!" These young kids today...listening to their evil rock-n-roll and smokin their mary-jo-wanna.

uauahhhhgh. It hurts when I pee.

It's Justin Ryan leaving. He's going to Detroit for a weekend gig.

I'm not surprised. I finally saw some video, and he's good. Could use a little more strength in his voice, a little more "authoritah" in his presence and presentation, and a little more age on him, but he's good and will just keep getting better.

I agree Arp2...in an earlier post, I noted how he was pretty bad 2 years ago, and look at him now; going to a top 10 market. If he has shown this much improvement in 2 years here, I cannot see why he wouldn't improve in Detroit.

By the way, isn't Borak from Detroit? How ironic, Adam Joesph leaves for Philly where Tony is from, now this. Point is, another young talented meteorologist heads for a big market...Philadelphia, Cleveland (Scott Sabol), Detroit all in recent years. Thats a good track record!

Geeee, I wish Amy was leaving though...there are days where I have an Opedipus morning...I want to jab my eyes out with two golden brooches. Amy...YOU ARE NOT FUNNY!!!!!!Try and do the weather, and nothing else. Please polish your voice and stop making those bizzare facial expressions!

come on dave, we're all pro's here. ya know, thick skin and all....

it's a pretty honest open forum... we've all had to take it at some point. it's all part of putting yourself in the spotlight.

now granted, it's easy to critisize from the outside... but we've all done it. and if this one comment helps the talent improve, that's what it's all about... imho

I guess I just prefer to talk about people BEHIND their backs, the way God intended it.

I've had a "Cartman" avatar! You don't remember it? It was from when he was hunting down hippies....I, too, hate hippies.

Sure. He'll keep adding experience, and it'll be "better" experience. He'll (most likely) have better tools, better attire, better image consulting, and better coaching.

i've retained too much crap in the last 18 months here at work, i'm sure some of the "lighter" things got lost... maybe when the "king" wears out his welcome we can hunt those damned hippies again

Maybe I'll make that switch and then come back with the "Simpsonized" King.....I don't even have to do any work for it!
