We have a local TeeWee reporter who utters the most wonderful malapropisms any time he departs from a script. This morning, he was out in the 'burbs someplace for "Live Snow Team Coverage" and, looking into the camera very earnestly, he intoned
"I'm here in X County, where the first remnants of snow are just starting to fall..."
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
And just think, he's got a fancy degree for that!
ReplyDeleteIs the death count still hovering around 0 for this once a century event known to historiand in the future as "Kill-Blizzard 2011!!"
ReplyDelete(yes, TWO exclamation points. One is for slackers.)
The production they are putting on for what is estimated to be a 3-5" snowfall is pretty impressive. But how do you top it if it really snows?
ReplyDeleteI was watching the US "Top Gear" on which Tony Hawk talked aboput some movie or another being his "First forte into stunt driving"
ReplyDeleteI guess he spends most of his time skating, riding, and recovering from injury, he can't be expected to have a vocabulary, too.
"But how do you top it if it really snows?"
ReplyDeleteThird exclamation point?
HAH! :D
ReplyDeleteMaybe even a fourth, if it really, REALLY snows!
ReplyDeleteIf he waits around long enough, he may even catch the last remnants of snow.
ReplyDeleteClearly, he doesn't have a dizzying intellect.
ReplyDeleteBUT WAIT!!! Maybe he's thinking ahead? The first flakes that fall will probably be the last ones that melt. Do you understand yet? Kentucky Jones
