Hey guys! I have been lovingly watching these past few days but lurking since I didn't have too much time. I've been busy with mid-terms, doctor appointments, projects, Irene cleanup/fixing (STILL!!!) and more. I found out I had a back injury from swimming years ago that has gotten worse so I am going to a chiropractor multiple times a week for it. Not a big deal but time consuming.

One exciting thing for me anyways is that I leave tomorrow to go to the National Weather Association Conference in Birmingham, AL until Tuesday. Looking forward to being with a whole bunch of weather geeks

The IS2 is very glitchy for my area. Being such a relatively new system I think its normal for some units to have complications.

You won't beleve this, but I found Dan Chandler (with his face shown) doing an educational special on trains. He hosts this made-for-video presientation from 1994 called Railroads of North America.
Railroads of North America
I'm not sure whether or not if this was his only non-TWC voice-over spots or not. I think he should come back to TWC! 

I know another voice-over he has done recently, though I'm not sure if I should disclose it.

No, you shouldn't.

Posts like this are starting to drive me crazy. If you're not sure if you can disclose it or not, don't mention it in the first place.

Thank you for posting the video! It's neat to see what the narrators "look like" and what jobs they do in addition to TWC. I wonder if Allen Jackson has done any segments like this.

why would u want the dan chandler narrations?

Where did he say that?


Anyway cool video. Nice to put a face on the man!

Does anyone think one of these computers are good for their price? i'm debating because i want to have a compatible computer for my WinTv 950Q tuner.

Dell or HP both $429.99

Personally I think its worth paying a little bit more for a system with an i5 cpu. It would handle your tuner better as well

Going back & forth from EC & Mexicali, I've picked up a Mexican accent...right now my accent is sluggish between English and Spanish. If you heard my voice right now, you could tell.

Thats kinda cool you picked it up


Whats up with youtube? I used to be able to browse a nice list of the most viewed videos for the day but now its this laggy mess. Is it like that for everyone now?

Guess who got his first driving... lesson today?

You know who.

I know - welcome to hell.

Yay!!! I still love driving. The thrill of it hasn't warn off yet except for those nasty traffic jams. Hopefully that isn't too bad for your area. It seems a lot harder at first then it really is. You catch on quick!

The cell phone/electronics policy at my school seems rather lax now, except for the consequences. You can have them with you, and you can even use them during lunch, before and after school, and during passing periods. However, you can only make phone calls in the first floor during lunch and after school. Electronics can't be used in the classrooms without permission, and if your phone goes off during class, you'll get a Saturday School, and will get the device confiscates until a parent picks it up.

Seems like a fair compromise!

Is it me... or are schools these days are getting stricter and stricter with their policies?   

Also, hi guys. Just visiting.

Hey Ana! Hope you have been well

Cell phones don't belong in school. They should be off at all times. You are there to learn.

They should never be allowed on in the classroom but I think using them in the hallway or at lunch is ok!

Agreed. Most common vehicle/method for cheating.

Is it really though? It seems a lot easier and less suspicious to lean over and look at someones answers. I find it hard to believe a teacher couldn't figure it out. Its pretty obvious when someone is staring at their pants texting or googling a question.

For those of you who are in classes with those who are cheating just know that you are actually learning the material and are smarter than the others. You can't get through life or school cheating forever. At some point it will catch up with them
