Wasn't this aired on TWC?  I can't find on the site.

Yes, it's on the August 1990 playlist. The updated site will have it. I have it as a 5:00, but I know I have footage of it as a 1:00.

The first two features look pretty cool. I wonder if my mom has this (she has an iPad).

Personally, I find her to be rather plain-looking. And I'm not exactly a fan of her robotic-like, mumbling singing style.

I'm not into Asian chicks, but I have to agree with you on Rihanna.

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.

I haven't had a problem either. Then again, I rarely visit more than twice a day. And even then it's usually only for a second.

You didn't answer my question. I understand you want things to be equal (even though what you're proposing doesn't make things equal), but I'm looking for a specific number for the "fair share" argument. But in response to your comments, how exactly does a rich person become or stay rich at the expense of someone who is poor? I have never had any rich person steal money from my checking account or prevent me from obtaining wealth. Yet the government essentially does it every month when I get my paycheck. Going back to my point from a while back, what incentive is there to work hard (which is something you need in order to make everything equal in your mind) when the reward for that work is the same no matter what? I'm for equality too, but not at the expense of someone else. Everyone in this country already (more or less) has equal opportunity to achieve whatever success they desire. If you want to go to college, you can. You can either work until you can pay for it, or you can get a loan and pay it after you get a good job. What socialists and communists seem to want is for everyone to have what they want right this second, without having to work for it. I'm sorry, but life doesn't work that way. At least not in a way that's truly fair and equal.

In a nutshell, the rich not only should pay more in taxes than the poor, but I don't think they pay enough.  Not by a long shot.

The rich currently pay about 40% of all taxes, while 51% of the population pays nothing. So how much is enough? Should they pay all of our taxes? If not, what percentage of their income should the government take? 40% 60% All of it?

Marny Stanier maybe? Hard to tell.

Doesn't sound like it to me. If it was, I'm sure she would have announced herself like John Doyle and Liz Jarvis did in other LF videos during that time.

I finally did get the name of the song (from this site!) used for the 30-second local forecast.

Really? What was it?

Thanks, Lightning. I've been wondering the same thing myself.
