Did I mention that 'Wilma' is being discussed on CNN? Day & Night.

edit* not to trivialize the horrific impact of a hurricane, but there's only so much to report.

1. I suppose it's more newsworthy than Natalie Holloway.
But they do tend to overdo a story.

13. Certain stories, that is.
And then supposedly when this hurricane hits Florida, it will more than likely be a Cat 1.

5. Yep I've switched to Tit-n-Teeth (Giada) over at the Food Network.
If you have seen one show you've seen them all. Kinda like this Wilma coverage. First pan to her hand cutting onions make sure you show her cleavage then her toothy smile back to cutting garlic repeat. She is the show not the food.

We just went through Rita and I know how important information is. That said two hours and no new info is a bit to much talk for me.


Pardon me I must go and throw up now. You know they hired me for my looks not my cooking.

6. I for one am glad to see all this reporting.
After all it's a Sunday, what else are they going to report.

7. It is a Sunday and they have talked about Wilma for four hours.
They could report on the WAR, it doesn't take Sundays off. Or the rest of the world, I'm just guessing, but I would imagine there is 'NEWS' happening somewhere.

9. But Floridians can handle a hurricane!
New Orleanians are just not capable of handling one.

It is CNN's duty to deliver this message to the US of A.

:sarcasm:

10. But...but...now we have Tropical Depression Alpha!
It was a TS, but it tracked over Hispaniola, forecast to strengthen back into a weak TS but not really do much.
