I'm not quite sure why, but lately I've been noticing just how cheesy and annoying every news persons name is. So now I'm curious; what are the names of your local news people? I wonder if in order to get the job you have to have a name that automatically makes people think of you as a jackass. [Lest we forget the big hair for the women!] Hmm...

We have, for example, the names of the "crew" on the local stations here in Sacramento.


- Dirk Verdoorn
- Deirdre Fitzpatrick
- Lois Hart
- Dale Schornack
- Elissa Lynn
- Darla Givens


I would also like to add that the people of Sacramento voted "a playground" the best place to break up with someone. Uhhhh...

This town blows.
