I'm sorry, but I LOL'd at the kid at 8 AM ET...."I was hoping to build a sandcastle, but now, thanks to all this oil, it's just, not gonna happen until it's cleaned up. It's just, heartbreaking."  :bleh:

Sorry for the double post..

Am I crazy, or did I just hear the old "chimes" for the Weekly Planner opener on Weekend Now???  :dunno:

I'm sorry if this has been like this, I rarely watch WN.

Anyone remember when TWC called July 4th by its actual holiday name Independence Day?

Is it that big of a deal that they're calling it the Fourth of July? I don't know anyone that refers to 7/4 as Independence Day... everyone I know calls it "the Fourth," "Fourth of July," or "America's Birthday."

Agreed.  Who cares what they call it, as long as we know what the holiday stands for :yes:

Sorry, it was a link to a Twitpic that belonged to Mike Bettes. It was a condom protecting his microphone.
