Guess who found his missing passport 6 months after he paid the Department of State to get a new one. Congrats, guys. My fee has now become a generous contribution. Spend it wisely. 

Haha well at least you didn't misplace it overseas. Mine fell out of my bag on a plane I had a few days ago and I had to get it redirected back to Scotland. Its a scary feeling knowing you have no way to return to your own country without going to a US Embassy.

Greetings from Rome folks! I am wrapping up my European vacation over the next few days in Italy before heading back to the US. I just arrived here from Athens. Weather is great

Cool list! I like many of those!! Thanks for being conscious about not uploading the content because of privacy concerns. I appreciate it I might burn a CD with some of these. I have been looking to make some TWC discs for my various car rides.

What I miss are those HD intros. Those were beautiful. I would die for a collage of ALL of them. I still can't find the sunset one.

Those really were good. I miss them

I wouldn't do it either way. Lots of math involved and most of the math is useless because you probably won't need Calc 3 in most cases for your job

Patrick summed it up pretty well. Plus I can tolerate math a lot more than writing/reading.

Lucky!! I'm the opposite

Well...that was...quick. Wasn't expecting it to go from bring nothing to a named storm in one day.

This is the same low that has been in my area for the past 7 days. It produced thunderstorms this week that dropped 4" of rain in some areas. It just moved offshore yesterday.

Yep I have a friend in Florence that got the same. It's been a headache for the Carolinas and SE VA for days.

Everything Else TWC / Re: General TWC Discussion

I really like the new update, especially the background! But if they upgrade the Max app, i'm buying it. I can't stand the ads.

I don't like how TWC pushes new updates to the free app (even though it has many many more users) rather than those who shelled out money for it. At least update both at the same time!

Won't be visible here like what Mike said. Won't see a solar eclipse here until May 1, 2079.

Darn I probably wont be able to see by then anyway

As Patrick said this issue has been repeated many many times. There is nothing wrong with enjoying the content from the past years of TWC. Some of you are just going to have to accept that TWC is moving in a new direction, as is EVERY other television channel in existence. The network isn't doing this just to spite you and loyal viewers. It's trying to find a balance that more people will enjoy. Christina you are right that everyone is entitled to their opinion but when the topic has been repeated over and over again its time to stop. Most of the people discussing this have made their opinions clear in various other topics and posts. What has changed to warrant the discussion? The topic of discussion has been going on for years. Clearly nothing has or will change. Albert Einstein once said the definition of insanity was doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Some of you may want to keep that in mind.

If you wish to start a petition well more power to you. I will be frank in saying they don't work but believe what you like. If you want to have any impact at all I suggest you make your comments over here http://feedback.weather.com/

What "beverages" do you like to drink, Martin? Dr. Pepper?  (This is sarcasm, by the way.)

Mountain Dew of course
