Wry On The Rocks

I’ve never watched “The Real Housewives of New Jersey”, but read that one of the more notorious wives (is that redundant?) has left the show in a snit.  Danielle Staub, in a written statement of her treatment by the other wives claimed that, “They didn’t talk about anything but me.  I don’t talk about them…I talk about me too!”

If there is a Emmy for up-front naked  honesty, I nominate Mrs. Staub.  Now if she would only fade away, but the reality is she is probalby headed for another  show.  Too bad that Andy so underestimated the time frame alloted to the Staub’s et. al.  .

     When did the evening TV weather report become a full-blown production adopting a style more suitable for a National Geographic feature?  And, when did the TV weather people start treating me like an idiot.  Do you notice how they usually start their evening telecast with a commentary on that day’s weather?  Like..”well today was a beautiful day…sunny and warm…”  I know what the weather was today!  I don’t live in a submarine.  I want to know what it’s going to be tomorrow!  And I want to know what it’s going to be here…not in Casper, Wyoming or Sioux Falls, Idaho or where ever.  And if it’s going to be hot tomorrow, I don’t need to know why…high pressure area over Coos Bay?  Air masses?  Station pressures??  I don’t care.  Just tell me how hot it will be and is it going to rain??  Period.
