...which leads into a good 'ol Sat. forecast.

EDIT:  ...the hell?  STAR has indeed crapped.  Looks cool with just the clock and temp, though.

Sharon is now a stay-at-home mom, I believe.

Why is everyone so shocked about Natalie's departure?  He Forecast Earth was whacked earlier.

Per a tweet, Abrams has been called in to cover for Al Roker on Today, so it's Carl and Mike tonight.

I've been working with my little EEE PC 1000HE for about a week now, and it's a pretty powerful little netbook.  Also picked up a slimline external DVD writer for my CD/DVD use.

Big factor in picking up this computer?  I get 8 hours of battery life.

What happens when you get to cover a space shuttle launch LIVE?  You get the Local on the 8s at 7:50.

Gotta pay those bills!

TCI > AT&T Broadband > Comcast.

TCI had limited channels, AT&T brought in a ton with low prices, Comcast sucks.

Awesome title card
Gameboard
Contestant lecterns with one in "ring-in"
Final Jeopardy category is displayed on that monitor after the Double Jeopardy round.
This is what the captioning plugs look like in HD.
Trebek at the gameboard, Final Jeopardy!
Final Jeopardy in progress, note the category is just on the monitor.
Contestant lecturns with the darkened set behind them.

Ignore the WSBT bug.  They don't know how the hell to do a bug.

If anyone can get the 8-8:10 segment recorded for me, that'd be greatly appreciated.  It looks like they are going to talk about my town's flooding!
