The weather man just called me his friend twice in the first 2 sentences of his introduction on Overnight Outlook.

That is definitely a weird way to approach your audience.

I guess I should feel closer to the staff at The Weather Channel now.  They’re “friendly“.

Maybe I would be a bigger fan of Ann Coulter if she called me her friend.  Of course then I’d have to make it through the first 2 sentences and that probably wouldn’t happen unless there was a backup tv to recover from the brick throwing incident………
