Say hi to your man on the street

[The Big Ragu]

I just got interviewed about a neighborhood issue for the local network news tonight. Look for me at 6 spouting pearls of wisdom for all the grammas watching.

 

[Bob Cook]

"I never thought something like that would happen here - it's such a tight-knit neighborhood."

 

[Sic semper tyrannis]

"He seemed like such a quiet person. He kept to himself."

 

[Ace]

I can't wait to see what you are holding in front of your face, Rags.

If it's anything like your great posts, are they going to split your comments up with commercials or just dedicate a few minutes each newscast for the month of July?

Finally the return of Heywood Jablome

 

[Buck]

Ragu: He was a qwuiet guy, kind of a loner.
Interviewer: Are you suprised he killed Buckwheat?
Ragu: Oh, not at all. That's all he ever talked about.

Nope. One of the networks.

I was keeping an over/under for myself until someone posted this.

Finally the return of Heywood Jablome

SWEAR I thought it when he asked for my name after he interviewed me.

You pretty much nailed it. Called my dad right afterward. He's the only person I could think of who would be home at 6, might actually watch the local news, and would care.

Network and local news are different, right?

Maybe. But it's the local affiliate for one of the networks. Sorry I wasn't more clear. I don't know how it works.

The news director gets up in the morning, reads all the papers and tells his staff to cover the good stories.

 

[Dirk Legume]

That's how we on the radio get our news. Totally a good way to news gather, right? ;)

I have opinions on dickheads also.

I was the star of the newscast, by the way. Someone randomly saw me and called, too!

He was interviewed as part of a helmet retrospective.

 

[Care Bear]

Were you interviewed in the dark with an altered voice?

 

[bumpy mcgee]

Was Chris Hansen conducting the interview?
