I think our local weather man is a robot.
Or possibly, Data from Star Trek, but with pinker skin and more fat.

I have no facts upon which to back up this assertion, just a gut feeling.
Also, he wants to fight me, as he is repeatedly making bad weather.

4. We have another one who looks like a yellow raisin.
His name is "Sven," and I can't stand him, either.

8. He is the only one I've encountered.
Though I do know of a "Thor," and my husband works with both a "Nels," and a "Bjorn."

Just imagine how insane I'd be, if I were consuming.

16. My minivan looks like a toaster.
It even has a sunroof, and sometimes I stand in it, to see if I can feel like bread.

9. That guy...
I like Kyle Underwood better. I like the weather garden though...something about them forcasting outside when it's 20 below makes me happy.

11. You know who drives me NUTS?
Mark Mallory.
He has nostrils the size of cataloupes, and they're on the sides of his nose.
I can't even look at him.

20. That's because I am mentally fried,
and things are just squirting out in inane streams.

There's a colorful analogy or metaphor in there somewhere, but I don't think I want to find it.

24. My favorite weatherbot is Sam Champion. He is the Golden God of Doppler
Edited on Fri Feb-23-07 08:17 AM by izzybeans
I no longer live near NYC to see him, but whenever he pops up on the national news it is like a classic SNL skit every time.

Imagine the Ron Burgundy-like voice saying "Hello There, I am Sam...Sam Champion. The Golden God of Doppler."

25. Do weathermen in Minesota like to panic the viewers?
As soon as the temp drops near freezing:

"Don't go outside! It's cold! You're in danger of frostbite if you decide to run a naked marathon it's so cold! If you must go outside, please dress properly, and after the break, we'll have a 10 minute demo to teach Minnesotans how to fight the winter cold. "

Or, more likely: "Hell has frozen over! It's the end of the world!!!"
