The story of the Jeweler’s Row peeping tom never really took off, perhaps because it didn’t have hilarious characters like a guy in a pimp hat. Anyway, NBC 10 finally made this a story worth commenting on when Deanna Durante somehow made him crash into a wall. He seems to walk into the wall himself and crash into Durante; it’s clearly some sort of Jedi mind trick.
After the collision, Benjamin Sorkin hilariously asks Durante what’s wrong with her and she then immediately throws the red flag and calls for instant replay.
Snow! We had a couple flurries before, but right! now! we are finally getting out first snowfall of the winter. The grown-up in me likes the thought of an easy morning post for the blog, and the kid in me likes the thought of getting off from school and playing Madden ‘93 all day.
The graphics up above from wxcaster.com show the snowfall potential for the NAM, WRF, and GFS computer forecasts. The resolution on the NAM and WRF is higher and seems to have a decent handle on how much may fall despite the location differences among all three models.
This is what I sound like when I talk about baseball statistics, I can only assume. I think I have a WRF file in my system directory.
It’s been about a month since we all decided to forget the name Latrice Bryant, the aide to Councilman Wilson Goode who makes $90,000 a year to call Fox 29 racist during City Council meetings.
Hairston explains how nonsensical the interview is going to be:
“I think on one hand I was able to understand some of her concerns and what she felt,” Hairston said. “But on the other hand I was a little bit confused as far as what she can see from this. What did she learn? Can’t you see how this looks?”
Bryant again cited race as a factor, Hairston added.
“There’s a tone of race in her interview,” he said. “I don’t know why. That didn’t fully come out.”
So it seems like she will continue to act like she is boinking Councilman Goode, surely a good way to bolster denials of a romantic relationship.
There isn’t an election anymore to get peoples’ minds off this whole situation, so it’ll be interesting to see what, if anything, Goode does to get the local media’s attention away from it. My suggestion: A cute wittle itty bitty puppy should do the trick. If not: Geeze, I dunno, drop C4 on a city block?
Matthews was voted most valuable player of the 1983 National League Championship Series and helped lead the Phillies past the Dodgers to the World Series. History could repeat itself when the Dodgers show up for the first game of this year’s NLCS in Philadelphia on Thursday.
Reader Joe writes: “If Sarge is named MVP and helps guide the Phillies to the World Series I’ll be quite impressed.”
Here’s a video of Pete Ciarrocchi from Chickie’s and Pete’s at the tryouts for the Sixers Dancers. Be sure to catch the “celebrity judges” at the 1:48 part, Jamison (he gets called “James”) Uhler from NBC 10 and (of course) Jennaphr Frederick from Fox 29. Later, there’s an interview with Roots keyboardist Kamal Gray.
I am shocked an appalled. Where’s Gervase from Season 1 of Survivor?!
Did you happen to catch the 11 o’clock news on NBC 10 last night? You probably didn’t, because (1) it was the local news and (2) thanks to Olympics coverage, it was delayed ’til sometime after midnight.
Man, did you miss a great show.
It was a little late, so I’m a little fuzzy on the details (and I wasn’t home and couldn’t capture it). But some of the segments last night were simply amazing. Bookended by commercials were these three stories: A man from Ohio fired from Burger King for sitting in bubble bath in industrial sink and putting it on Myspace, a local swim team who watched Michael Phelps win, and a local kid from some Catholic school who “Goes for the gold!”
This last one was the part of a series, and was of course the longest. It featured glowing interviews with his mom, his aunt and even a nun. The reporter (I think Jamison Uhler) let us know that the little Catholic kid’s biggest passion was “supporting the troops.”
Anyway, all of this took up a pretty big chunk of the broadcast; the rest was pretty much just weather and sports. And maybe a little on those parents who filed the lawsuit against the city but are also charged their a baby’s death. But mainly it was about supporting the troops and Ohio Burger King location scandals. I must say, I hope this 12 o’clock news is a regular thing if it’s going to be like this.
