Wow, just when you thought Chris couldn't get any more annoying...

I have to laugh at this:

I feel like reporting TWCT to SMF because of this.

Anyone recently heard their IS say "Overnight" vs. "Tonight"?

The IS has said that during the overnight hours ever since it was introduced in 2004. ;) It actually used to have the text as "Overnight" during the overnight hours too - but for some reason that got changed and the text says "Tonight" but the narration reads "Overnight".

I just noticed they've opened a Sonic here in Bensalem. I thought that was a southern chain! :unsure:

Nope. They're set to open one around here, too, from what I've heard.

A few Sonic's have popped up here within the last few years :yes:

I only like their drinks.  Their food isn't very good :ermm:

Sonic has always been a national chain, but they've recently started their "explosive" expansion.

They've been advertising for Sonic around here for 4 years, and they are JUST coming into the area. Makes no sense, but that's typical. :rolleyes:


Sonic is great, though.

Good morning all. :) Well, my power just kicked back on. The remnants of Fay started heading back east (after missing us this weekend when it was heading west) last night towards us, and this morning, the winds from the system knocked out our power at about 5:15 AM CT this morning. Power was restored around 6:42 AM CT. No word right now on school cancellations in the area, but most likely cancellations WILL happen, seeing how long the power was out, the traffic signals are out/flashing red or yellow. That, along with the winds that are still blowing and gusting out there will make conditions unsafe for the school buses to be on the road. In any case, we'll be waiting for official word from the district. :yes:

Don't hold your breath Stephen. If the power's back on and all there is is some wind, I'd be getting ready for school.  :D
