I just installed Google Chrome on my PC. So far so good, definitely more stabler and faster than IE and FF. :happy:
Chrome ftw!! Once I went Chrome I never went back to Firefox.
Aren't you guys up that early to get ready during the school year or for work or whatever?
Haha in the summer I usually head to sleep around 4/5am and sleep until who knows when! When school was in session I remained in bed for every last second possible!

FF had my heart for years. Then Chrome came and swept me off my feet. :wub: I have since divorced FF. She was starting to get on my nerves. Not as bad as my first wife though, that bloated, slow IE...she was a bitch. :bleh:

I'm always up late and sleep in late during the summer. During the school year, I have to get up early for classes (next semester I have an 8am, FML), so I will probably get up around 7:15, with just enough time to shower and catch a few minutes of news. I haven't watched TWC mornings in a few years now... there's no need to because checking weather.com or my TWC Android App is much quicker.

I had fun last night making color tables for GRLevel3. Can anyone say that intensities are indicated by the color code at the top of the screen? :wub:
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

I last watched TWC regularly in the mornings before WUWA when Steph and Mike had all of their energy devoted towards YWT. Still miss Heather, Nicole and Eat You Guy though :( They were a great team. I actually don't use TWC as my primary source for weather. Rather use NWS or local first.

Lol, can't believe I didn't notice that, I was watching too  :rofl2:

Pretty wild race last night though. Almost 20 cars out, mostly due to accidents, including that ~10 car wreck toward the end of the race. :yes: Will be interesting to see how things will feel once that track gets paved.

Tomorrow begins my NWS career.  Please wish me luck as I'll definitely be a little nervous on the first day!

OMG, that is like the longest URL I have ever seen. :blink:

Patrick, I wish you luck! Everyone is nervous and shy on their first days, but don't worry you'll get along with everyone and be familiar with your new position soon. :)

Exciting! Good luck, Patrick.  You'll do great at whatever it is you are going to do.  So, what exactly are you going to do? :P

I'll probably be filling out more government forms on the first day to get myself fully into their system, including all my benefits.  I imagine that I'll be shown around the whole office and be introduced to the staff.  The rest I won't know until I actually go into the office.

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone! B)
