Neither one has anything particularly great in mind, that I've heard. 

So what can we do to get rid of this recession? I can't stand living in an economy like this much longer, nor can anyone else.

Do Obama or McCain have anyway of greatly improving the economy?

General Discussion / Re: NBC Weather Plus Discussion

With the acquisition of TWC by NBC Universal, we might as well discuss it. KXAS-TV here in Dallas/Fort Worth has it on Channel 5.2. I would love to see NBC WX+ integrated into Weatherscan.

Not me. I don't like WeatherPlus, and Weatherscan undoubtedly has higher ratings than WeatherPlus. Heck, I don't even know anyone who watches WX+. Besides, TWC is suppose to operate as one separate channel, meaning no merges or anything like that.

If Weatherscan is discontinued, that would greatly affect me. You hardly see any beach, gardening, or health forecasts on TWC anymore, do you? Weatherscan is much more convenient for me as far as local weather is concerned rather than TWC.

I'm pretty sure that WeatherPlus will simply cease operations. If TWC would accept NBC's offer back in 2002, WeatherPlus would never had existed. But TWC declined, and thus NBC launched their own channel to compete. But now that they own the more successful TWC and Weatherscan, there's no need for them to have WeatherPlus anymore.

I have a habit of doing stuff like this, except with LF songs. Why, just this morning I caught myself humming a Chris Geith song.

Haha, same here. Yesterday I had

this song

stuck in my head all day and kept whistling it. Heck, now that I think of it I might have it stuck in my head all day today too. What can I say, it's a great song.

I can't see TWC having Sunrise Weather on weekends. Doesn't make sense. The sun rises during the week too, not just on weekends...

"Welcome to Evening Edition; I'm Adam Berg; Paul and Alexandra have the night off, so let's DIVE right into it, though, and see what's goin' on!"

Yeah, I was going to post the whole thing but couldn't remember it, so I just DOVE into the Paul and Alexandra part and posted just that.

Freakin' awesome! Finally the gang leader gets his shot at weekday EE after all these years. You know, I actually considered this situation over the weekend. 

This is his first time hosting primetime weekday EE? I thought he'd hosted it before.

Great job with the fog icon! I've been looking for one without "FOG" on it for awhile.
