So Long, and thanks for all the fish Toward the end of tonight’s bath, Little E went through this elaborate ritual of trying very intently to hang his wet washcloth on the bathtub’s hand rail. I asked him if this meant he was ready to get out of the tub.

“No, dad,” he replied. “I’m still playing.”

“What are you doing with that washcloth then?”

“Dad, I am hanging curtains for my dolphin*!”

Okay, no more Nate Berkus Show for you. Where in the world did he ever hear anything about hanging curtains??!?

(* he has a dolphin bathtub squeeze toy. we’ve named him Douglas the Dolphin.)… Read more

What??!? Let me preface this by stating that I don’t know where any of this comes from… but it sure made for an entertaining evening.

LITTLE E: Dad, I need a pencil so I can draw a walking pickle with legs.
ME: This I gotta see. Here you go.

[a short while later]

LITTLE E: Dad, look! A walking pickle with legs and eyes!
ME: Wow! So it is. … Read more

Part of my job at work is to make sure that there’s closed captioning on all of our programming. Airing something without captioning can net a heavy fine, and would probably get me fired if I wasn’t already staring down the barrel of being laid off in a couple of months when the operations center moves up north.

But sometimes, it would help, it really would… if the people who type in the captioning, even in an unpredictable live TV environment… would pay attention to what the hell they’re typing. … Read more

Let me be the first to say that there’s nothing funny about the severe weather that’s been killing folks by the dozen across the southern states. I’ve seen videos of Alabama tornadoes tonight that make me want to mess my pants, even though I’m on Youtube. Stuff like that makes me feel pretty sheepish about posting cell phone photos of the relatively mousy little rotating wall cloud that drifted over my house last night.

That being said, I’ve always thought that one of the first duties one has after something like this is to find a reason to smile. And the following gem from CNN.com fits the bill nicely. … Read more

When you work with teevee weather people, you’re used to thunderstorm warnings and tornado warnings and flash flood warnings… but this morning, live on the air, our weatherman had a new one to deal with:

…a virus warning!

As always when these things happen unannounced, there’s a lot of talk about improving the warning system… like, oh, say, NOT HAVING IT POP UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SCREEN ON THE AIR.

I wonder how many folks are still trying to debug their HDTVs. 😆
