Today’s Weather

January 25th, 2008 No Comments

If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!Greetings from Studio B.  Look at that hair-thank goodness SOME one is not on TV today.  Here’s something that WILL look good:  the sky.  Sunshine, and single digits this morning.  More clouds later today, and another medium chance of small snow […]

These Boots Were Made For Ebay

January 24th, 2008 No Comments

The funniest CUFFs are the ones that shine a bright light on the Dark Places of Paul and Tom. Today’s episode is a shopper’s delight. Let me just say for the record: I do not buy boots on line. Not that’s there’s anything wrong with that.

Cell Phone Diary, Day 2

Here’s round two of the big experiment with the small screen of the Samsung. Haven’t quite figured out the timing yet—I don’t finish the phrase “401-k” at the end.

Fun With Google

January 23rd, 2008 1 Comment

I mean with the ads, at least.  I can’t click on them of course, but I do enjoy the (theoretically) context-sensitive ads that pop up in the blog.  There was something this morning about a free book on ”prophecy.”   Don’t we have a pretty Good Book on prophecy already?  I’m just saying.  You could also click […]

Wednesday Weather

January 23rd, 2008 No Comments

My writers are not on strike, but I am doing repeats.  Another strip of overnight snow is expected, with another inch or less of accumulation by morning rush hour Thursday.  It’ll be colder than… (insert your favorite term here) Thursday, with highs around 15 and winds around 15mph.

Experimental Video

It’s not Paris Hilton–there’s no green tint…but it DEFINITELY is amateur video.  It could be the start.  Of something small.

Who’s the most Vanilla of them all? Judge for yourself. This piece of embarrassing audio is courtesy of WZPL’s Smiley Morning Show, and last week’s “Rap Idol” contest. Go ahead, laugh at me. I can take it.

Tuesday Weather

January 22nd, 2008 No Comments

UPDATE AT 7AM:  The Indianapolis National Weather Service tells me they had just under an inch of snow overnight, which matches up with most of our weather watchers.  Lafayette reported an inch and a half, and judging from radar estimates, the totals might also be a little higher in an area between Lafayette and Kokomo.  […]

Monday Weather

January 21st, 2008 No Comments

UPDATE AT 11AM:  I’m raising the ante to 1-3″ overnight, to account for the possibility of higher totals in the northwest/west part of the viewing area.  Heaviest snow looks to fall between 3 and 7 am.  Once advantage of my strange shift:  I’ll be at work already. 
FOR TODAY:  Some improvement, with temps in the 20’s, […]

Wide World Of Sports

It was the third coldest NFL game ever in Green Bay Sunday night, but I think Mrs. Poteet is still hot over the final score.  Here’s the silver lining for the Colts/Packers fan I live with:  wouldn’t it be great to have the Patriots stopped one short of a perfect season by a Manning?  I […]

Happy Dolly Day

January 19th, 2008 No Comments

Did you celebrate Dolly Parton’s 62nd birthday today?  What would you get for the woman who has everything?  Or has had everything done?  Dolly defies categorization as easily as she defies gravity.  She’s got a great sense of humor, and is always fun to watch in any kind of format.  I hear from people who […]

How Low?

January 19th, 2008 No Comments

At least it’s sunny today.  I’m about to make a personal appearance at Sam’s Club.  Not as a public figure, just someone who wants to buy bottled water in bulk.  I’ll put on a bulky coat.  The chill advisory remains for tonight, and the ongoing forecast is still good…zero to five below for the actual […]

Negativity

January 18th, 2008 No Comments

Looks like sub-zero weather Saturday night, so there’s a Wind Chill Advisory in place, and a baby boom nine months down the road.  Or does that just work during snow storms?  No big snows this weekend.  There will be Big Cheese on the top of Mrs. Poteet’s head Sunday during the Packers Game.

Not only am I cross-talking with radio people all over Indiana, now I’m cross-blogging.  WMDH Radio just re-vamped their website.  Now it’s in color!  And Jon and Kelly are blogging.  Good luck with that. 
My newest radio partner is Brian Free on WXXC, who also brings a blog to the table.  Abdul from WXNT is a […]
