Stupid-ass poll...

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

Well I think this is our opportunity to help our olde-school media brethren by coming up with more (and better) poll questions. Me first.

Which road in Huntington should be the first to be named after James F. and/or Joan C. Edwards?

Questions for Huntington..

Should it be pronounced "Cameron" or "Cameroon"?

Should it be called Doulton Aveune or the place where you may be killed in a drive-by?

Should it be Gary "Music" Miller or Gary "non-verbal but sung" Miller?

When cities/suburbs/streets get names that involve two words, they are very often jammed together to form a new/fake compound word. Interestingly, it's right here that outside agencies/voices frequently blow it -- they either take them back apart or put the emphasis on the wrong syllable.

And, now that I've rested and had food, I'm quite sure the question does, in fact, answer itself.

Just be glad they spelled "south" correctly. It IS the newspaper you know.

And if it lasts more than 4 hours, don't call the doctor. Call a couple more broads.
