Ive noticed lately that the LDL has been going out earlier. Is this an error or some change in progress?

Whoa.. the vocal version of In the light by DC talk was used for the :58 track on WUWA today :blink:
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

That song is a religious song... I didn't think TWC would be allowed to play those. :blink:

Is there a voice condition that makes it sound like someone needs to clear their throat ALL the time? If so Todd Santos definitely has it. It's really annoying that he cant clear his throat.

I know, that's really annoying.

I am glad I wasn't the only one not noticed that.  Don't they have cups of water handy at the desk or are there too many electronics? B)

I don't think they're allowed to have any food or drinks on the set (at least without having it covered with some tablecloth).

They used to be allowed to have coffee (or some liquid) with them at the anchor desk back in the day.

There's plenty of stuff behind the scenes, in the bullpen and such.

I actually think that is how he talks, unfortunately.  I am not a huge fan of Santos' presentations.

On another note, I am not feeling Crystal Egger.  She seems to stumble on her words quite a bit.

Agreed on both points!

I could have sworn I heard the opener music used for Your Weather Today from 2008 to 2010 during a commercial today...but I don't see how, as I don't think it was production music, was it?

Does Carl Parker not have a normal timeslot anymore? I haven't seen him on Day Planner in quite a while. I thought he may have been on vacation, but I just saw him in a (what looked to be a recent, albeit prerecorded) "Earth Watch" segment.
My super-awesome website!
