Why all that paint?

Last thing I bought was a new iPod clock radio for $69 at PC Richard and Sons.

Touch is overplayed.  I have heard it half a dozen times tonight alone.

At least there's ONE smooth jazz track in primetime...

TWC's public relations have researched that a clock isn't well-requested.

Oh gosh, I haven't seen those in years now. One ad that is really irritating to me is the ad for Al Roker... "For years, his name has been synonymous with weather"... "he's a trusted friend who tells it like it is". Lies, lies lies!

I hate those too. Al has no idea what he's talking about, and he overreacts and gets hyper about everything... a little ADHD, no?

That's why I don't use gold. It isn't much simpler and customizable.

It's a lot easier with the new system though for the sponsor tags. All it requires is changing a graphic, as opposed to sending updates to all the STARs everyday.

Does anyone know whether or not Perez was her maiden name? I know she had kids in the early 2000's.

That first picture was from the meltdown on 1/22/08, which reverted a lot of things on the satellite LF. But I'm pretty sure it was in 2005 as I stated, a few months before the BWTL relaunch.

Was that first picture from the meltdown? Because I'm pretty sure the snow color codes changed around May 2005.

The "First Day of Summer" LOT8s opener was shown today...it's really nothing special, though.

Was there one for Father's Day yesterday?

Yes. I wasn't too crazy about the Father's Day one but I do like the summer one.

Hello STAR team,

I was vacationing at the shore yesterday and have noticed that Atlantic City is listed twice on the lower display line on this IntelliStar. Could this be fixed? I would suggest changing one of them to Wildwood, as this is a well-traveled to destination, and also since there aren't any locations in Cape May county (what this STAR mainly serves) listed on the LDL. The other city is Egg Harbor City which I'm okay with, unless you had something else in mind.

Let me know, if possible, what changes you have made, as I won't be seeing this STAR again for another couple of weeks.

Thanks!

Amazing how most Americans are uninterested in the World Cup compared to the rest of the world

I never even heard of the World Cup until last week...
