Word is (not making this up) the management told the people they didn't have to pay for their food.


You think?????!!!!???????


In a related story WVOW is still off the air. Power company people can't even get to the transmitter site now. In another related story shortly after we went off the air, I told one of our part timers that he should go on the air and make the announcement that we were off the air.


HE DID, or at least tried to.

Does this mean you don't have to go to work?

From the WSAZ tape, It looks like the anchor bolts failed.
It also looked like they were very small.
Someone needs to look at the permitting process
for that sign in Logan.

Missed the building by about one foot, and no, Gen, I need not get the day off. I still had to work.

Must be true. Britney Spears was not injured in a minor fender bender Saturday night.
