#1 I believe the Sports and Comics section and sometimes the Obituaries. Everything else is tilted, twisted and disjointed.

#2 Well, there's weather too. I believe that...most of the time.

#6 Move out here EU6305, you'll end up cursing the weatherman before noon.

As soon as a person realizes it isn't reporting, but entertainment and advertising with the occasional attack story. For instance, I heard nothing about the Kansas Secretary of State having his personal home laid siege. But you know what - kittens, that's what.

#8 That must be a shock to the newspapers and television people. Even the weatherman is suspect. I rely on my dog for the weather. Whenever, there is a bad weather or a thunder storm within 40-50 miles, she heads for under the bed. She is right more often than the weatherman.
