Banned because I'm finally at my parents' house in eastern Washington after a long day of driving.

As I'm trying to find more happiness in my life now, I stumbled across one little thing that made me smile today, which I'm going to share with all of you.  I recall a 30-second commercial airing on TWC in the mid 1990s that was both cheesy and memorable, and I finally found it on YouTube:

Safe Step Ice Melter

So, do any of you remember this ad or get through it all on your first look without chuckling? :P


Thanks for sharing Patrick!  :D  I didn't start watching TWC until 2004 so this is the first time I've seen that commercial, but it certainly got a laugh out of me!  :lol:

Just got home and I read about this on social media and I thought, What?!? No!!!  :cry:  I remember seeing him in many movies as well as on the TV show "Mork & Mindy".

R.I.P. Mr. Williams.  :(

66º Sunny

I'm under a Red Flag Warning until 11AM PDT this Tuesday because of low humidity, gusty winds, and a chance of thunderstorms. Very rare to see that advisory around here!  :o

Vince Guaraldi Trio - A Charlie Brown Christmas (1997 Starbucks Exclusive CD)

I know it's August  :P  but I found that CD at a thrift store earlier today.

Hi everyone.  I creeped around TWC Classics years ago, but I never posted.  I've had a fascination with meteorology since I was about 8 years old.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IygQxE5aK4  I had the opportunity to be on WJAC and give the forecast 8 years ago.  I've met a few members at WTAJ and I got a studio tour.  That was even longer ago.

Although I still like the news and weather, as a senior in high school, I want to go to college and get a degree in Music Education because I think it's important to have that still being taught today, and I want to be a roll model like my music directors have been to me.

I enjoy sonic branding.  I think it's fascinating.  I do some composing of my own and I love listening to the works of other composers, whether it be old-style TWC with jazz or classical, or even news music.  I'm a self-proclaimed music nerd... and I'm OK with that.

If you want someone to talk to, add me on Facebook, send me an email, follow me on twitter, watch my YouTube videos.  I'm very active online and I love to talk to people who are into the same things that I am.  :wave:

Welcome to the forums!  :wave:

Here is my laptop's desktop as of now. That pic in the background is the harbor at West Bay in Olympia, WA, which was taken by myself earlier today.  :)

I don't get why the LDL is still blue despite TWC being in Storm Alert mode with the SA music playing during LFs.  :unsure:

It appears that the new traffic provider is INRIX.

The Weather Channel Began Streaming INRIX's Traffic Data in Continuous Ticker

The Seattle Seahawks begin their pre-season tonight at 6PM PDT on FOX. It'll be a rematch with the team they crushed in Super Bowl XLVIII six months ago, the Denver Broncos. Six months is too long to wait for the next season of NFL football, especially for a 'newbie' sports fan like myself!  :lol:

I decided to redo my personal LOT8s music mix CD for fun.  :)





Both of the background pictures are that of the Columbia River Gorge on the Washington/Oregon border near the Maryhill Stonehenge, taken in March 2014.

As for the songs, I removed 9 songs from the original mix (because I wanted to :P) and added a new song, "Jessica" by The Allman Brothers Band.

What do you guys think?
