i don't think david moss should have the job that he has. don't get me wrong...i like the mossman--i have heard his news since way back when he was doing traffic reports on 1100 am wwwe...i hope my memory is correct. i was a little leaguer then listening to tribe talk/games on that station back in the early 80's and i believe he was doing traffic reports from a chopper . but as judy blume would say: that was then, this is now.
i liked the mossman back then...now, i feel, i am only entertained by him if i pick apart his inadequacies for fun since they are so obvious ( sorry mossman).
1. movie and a mansion? gimme a break...i can handle the 'movie' part even though it's an advertisement for hollywood...i accept it because movies have ties to the economy and so it could be news (even if it is tabloidy). It's the 'mansion" part that gets me. at the time of a heavy bombardment of foreclosures, nobody wants to see a house that they will never be able to afford. those who can afford it can also afford to get top notch realtor to work overtime for them to find them these kinds of houses. don't waste news time advertising houses for local realtors...that's what commercials are for. shame shame shame
2. movies and a meal? gimme a break. hey, i'm cool with learning some new recipes...but from someone who knows what they are doing. does the mossman have any training as a cook? he seems very much like a novice. professional cooks all over the city must be as disgusted as i am with the mossman's lack of cooking abilities. does the mossman film this all in one take? his cooking segments look very raw (no pun intended). we know its filmed because we see the same rerun presentation several times throughout the week on the news (a topic for another blog: rerun news segments). maybe i should be pointing the finger at the producer for this one. the mossman always looks so rushed and he is always sloppy with his presentation. he rushes through a half-[...] explanation of what he's cooking then he just throws the garnish any ol' way which can defeat the purpose of having a garnish. ornanmentation is supposed to make things look better...not worse. chef ramsey would freak out if he saw this.
the mossman seems so wishy washy with various jibber jabber as he rushes through things. what really got me was the other day when he was throwing a cobb salad together ( a cobb salad by the most literal definition is throwing whatever you happen to have in the fridge--even leftovers-- together into a salad...its a salad built from schlop...who needs a recipe for that?) he said something to the effect of: a cobb salad is called that because the ingredients are all lined up in rows--like a corn cob. what?? it's COBB salad, mossman...not COB salad...named after a man with the last name of COBB. yikes--misinformation on the eyewitness news. shame shame shame
it's not all the mossman's fault...these news segments need to go...that's the program manager's mistake..
phew. i glad i got that off my hairy chest. (my gripes, that is, not the cobb salad).
now that the details of julia child being a spy has been confirmed...maybe gene gene the dancing machine from the gong show really was telling the truth that he was a cia assasin.
wowie.
andre... USE PRIMARY SOURCES !!! al gore did. you mislead people into thinking that global warming is a farce.
keep in mind that the warmer air is, the more moisture it can hold. global warming has increased average global temps so the atmosphere has more moisture in it than ever has before. is that where all the water is going--to our atmoshere? nope not all of it...don't forget that the world's population is increasing exponentially...there are more desalination plants than ever before. people use water---yes, even salt water. alot of water is tied up and diverted into in human consumption and industry whereas it was not before.
with all due respect to one of my favorite weather guys, maybe this is why i haven't heard the "you da man, andre" in quite some time (a few years?)i'm starting to think that local fox news is not fair and unbiased. the cable fox channel is unfairly conservative--we all know that...but it's starting to seep down to the tabloid fox local news. shame shame shame
i still think 'you da man, andre' but more than once i have heard your scepticism on this matter. as one professional earth scientist to another : USE PRIMARY SOURCES !!!!
how does a #1 team become the underdog? oh wait we're talking osu--a team that thinks they are #1 because they beat teams like kent state, akron u, and youngstown state...gimme a break.
how do you make buckeye cookies? you stick them in a bowl and beat them for 4 hours !!!!
