What made me laugh-- I've said to my wife many a time that I want to be a weatherman, not that I have ANY skills in that area --BUT-- There is no other job where you can be wrong so many times and still get paid!! Wouldn't ya know it -- in the interview Don Kent said it -- almost word for word.

Don -- are you among us in this forum??? fess up!
