I'm sure this makes Mike as happy as it makes me furious

hehe, you bet I am My friend and I were tracking this storm all day today. 8 to 14 inches of snow in the forecast here now.

Seems like we both keep getting screwed Aaron, today is the third time this month we have been in the 30's and up getting nothing but a COLD, RAW RAIN.  I'm getting pretty tired of this keep happening, I rather it's just be sunny outside it's not like we haven't had enough rain this year anyway. This is turning out to be EXACTLY like what the Winter of 2006-2007 was and that's not good.

It's ok...nothing very special. No Ice Fairies, O Tannenbaum or First Noel by Main Gazane, or Silent NIght by Jeanne Ricks

I really like this playlist, they're playing new songs and songs they haven't played in years. What I don't like is that they recycled Vince G. songs in the Primetime playlist, the songs you listed could have played in it's place instead.

WeatherStar XL v3 Emulation - Color Change (Nov. 09' Update Part Two)
I made some changes to the coloring of the titlebars and slides Slides that have not been changed since yesterday: Current Conditions - Still has the greenish tint right now. Almanac (except for titlebar) Narrations Used: Alan Jackson/Current Conditions - (ripped from one of my IntelliStar vids w/o music) Alan Jackson/36 Hour Forecast - (from twctoday forums) "Paul"/Extended Forecast - (from neospeech.com) Features "Thumper" by Aangel

Hey, would you be able to send me a copy of the file of that LF you mentioned?

Or if your asking me that because you want the audio of the narration I can just send you those instead.

That could be the Snow/Sleet icon, it's hard to tell the difference between that one and the Wintry Mix.

<3 the story of the Christmas Tree Ship. I want to see it again.

Yeah, as sad as it was, it was sort of compelling to me. I am pretty sure the last time it aired was 1/2/04, so yes, it has been a while.

The Christmas Tree Ship ep of SS came on this past Thanksgiving IIRC. If it wasn't Thanksgiving it was during that week because it came on after DP ended.

12 Days Of Christmas Emulation Special - Detroit, MI

12 Days Of Christmas Emulation Special - Detroit, MI

Our fourth stop takes us to the soon to be COLD and snowy motor city of Michigan.

Song: Micheal Colone - Ice Fairies

I was having some problems with the titlebar on the Current Conditions screen so I had to overlap another titlebar on top of it which is why the coloring is off and you see part of some text behind it.

I'm going to address these concerns about YT views:  If all of you want to improve your views, then you need to create more variety in your videos and not post more than once a week.  Most of the mainstream doesn't care about LFs and TWC like we do, so you got to mix it up more.  Aaron, you were uploading TV commercials that were getting very high views, so why not try a few more of those now and then along with anything else you want?  If I ever start uploading videos, I'm not going to focus solely on LFs or TWC.  I'll actually do weather videos and anything else random that I feel is funny or interesting to capture.

Additionally, is YT views really that big a deal?  You don't need views to survive on YT.  Uploading a video is solely for the pleasure of the user to keep those memories and share them with the world.  Whether everyone else thinks it's awesome or not doesn't take away from the treasured moments that the user wants to capture forever, which is why you have your own account.  I'm trying to deal with family, friends, getting a job, and so many other things to where I could care less about my account having zero videos uploaded and zero views right now.  There are far bigger problems in life than getting enough YT views, so please keep everything in perspective here.

With the help of Zach, I plan on doing video game recordings and probably other stuff to start off the new year and I'm also cutting down to 1 or 2 vids a week.

Possible system this weekend? Winter weather?

Everytime you mention winter weather, the NWS starts mentioning it for me too. I haven't seen it, but I heard the Euro is developing a major storm for the EC this weekend.

I heard The Love Unlimited Orchestra's "Forever in Love" as background music  on an episode of Malcolm in the Middle, strange thing is I've seen that episode a few times so I'm surprised I'm just now hearing that play in the background.
