TWC Today News / Bring TWC to TWC Today!!
« on: September 20, 2008, 08:57:35 PM »
Alright, I've been telling you guys since last night that I have an idea that might get someone from TWC to our forum. Here is the idea.
Want TWC to come to TWCT? Let's tell them so! Tell TWC that you want them to join us here at TWC Today! Just make a post in this thread saying that you want TWC to come here, and why. The more voices that speak out, the better the chance that TWC will listen. Apparently they don't feel that TWCT is important enough to spend their time on. Well I want to tell you that TWCT has grown so much that we now give TWC one hell of a run for its money, and as such we NEED to have someone from TWC here to hear our complaints, questions, comments etc. Maybe TWC will realize how important being here is to all of us.
I'm also going to post a notice on the front page of the site, so that others who aren't yet members might join us and join in our mission to get TWC to TWCT! After enough people have spoken, I will be contacting TWC with a link to this thread and a sampling of some of the posts in it.
Think of this as an online petition of sorts.

General Weather Chat / Winter Predictions
« on: September 17, 2008, 12:34:22 PM »
As we enter into the final days of summer, its becoming time to look ahead to cooler temperatures and even (yikes!) snow. So how does everyone think this winter will unfold? Will it be cold or mild? Will there be snow, or none?
My thoughts for winter in my area are as follows. Judging by how summer was a bit on the cool side (I don't think the temp ever climbed above 95), I think we're going to have a cool and snowy winter. We're already expecting to see temps perhaps in the 40's tonight, and we're still in September!

General Discussion / YouTube Warning
« on: September 16, 2008, 09:22:37 AM »
Seems another huckster is ripping people's videos and posting them as his own. The guy's account is: http://www.youtube.com/user/RICHWXNET, and so far he's stolen videos from both of our Chris's, Victor, Billy, and Devon (number1twcfan). Devon knew of this, but only posted at TWCC, not here, so I thought I'd make up for his ignorance and let you all know of this latest threat. Seems you guys like to know about these things, so I'm willing to let you guys know when I know of a new threat. I know I've made a big deal out of this kinda thing in the past, but it seems its probably in this forum's best interest if I relax a little about it.

General Discussion / O.J Simpson Trial Underway
« on: September 15, 2008, 01:05:20 PM »
So, O.J. Simpson's latest trial got underway today. What are your thoughts? Do you think he's innocent this time, or guilty once again? Do you think he'll get a fair trial, especially with the makeup of the jury (a very big topic in the news)? Got other thoughts?
I think he's guilty as charged. Of course, I thought he was guilty in 1994 also. Seems to me he thinks that since he's a star (albeit a former one) he can do as he pleases with no fear of ramifications. And as far as I'm concerned that farce of a trial in 1994 only solidified that belief in his mind. Some might say I'm prejudiced. Not true. If he were white I'd feel the same way. No one writes a detailed book called "If I Did It" if they didn't do it. And I think that same belief that he deserves preferential treatment allowed him to believe he could bust into someone's motel room to steal items he claims are his. I think his actions were unjustifiable, and he ought to rot in prison for awhile. I'm sure the sight of O.J. behind bars will make alot of people feel alot better about our justice system (and give the late night guys some good material!). And it'll show O.J. that he doesn't get preferential treatment because he used to play football.

Local Forecast / TWCC Trammell Clips
« on: August 20, 2008, 09:00:36 PM »
Is it just me or has Matt reverted back to his original naming scheme with his Trammell clips? I am browsing through them as I type this and none of his Trammell tunes any longer seem to have the newer names... 
If this is the case, does anyone know why he did that? Not that I mind or anything, as that particular naming scheme is my favorite of them all. In fact, it was always my opinion that his original names should've been the official ones (not to slight wow in any way-his names are excellent also).

TWC Today News / New videos on the way!
« on: August 10, 2008, 06:34:03 PM »
Just wanted to let you guys know that I will be adding some more new (not so new?) videos to the site today. I say not so new because some of them have been seen on YouTube.
Be that as it may, their still going on this site. The goal of this site is to be your all in one TWC resource, and part of doing that is offering the most complete, comprehensive collection of videos available anywhere on the net.
Also, I will be creating a page for this most recent Trammell-a-palooza, so if you have video from the past 3 (4?5?) days, please post it here!
