Month: December 2009

I got to love the fans that have watched the show I was on and the people that visit my blog pages here and on BNVN.com and or Examiner.com

At the same time I have to wonder about some people that send hate mail and post just the stupid stuff.  If you can’t say it to someones face then why would you post it? 

I was just looking over my Examiner.com page to see if there was any comments made and I saw this one.

Nicole Foster says: I have seen and heard your name for some time now. Doug, you are an jerk who makes money from other peoples misery. Go to hell !

Really?  So what does CNN, Fox News, NBC News, The Weather Channel, ABC News, CBS News, and the rest of the media do?  Oh yeah, they make money from reporting the news which in most cases is bad news.

Some people need to get a life and think about what they post before they post.

Global cooling is in full swing in the Midwest as high temperatures did not even make it above 3F in the Minneapolis, MN metro area today.  The arctic air mass that has moved into the area also brought brisk winds which made it feel more like -21F.

Looks like today will be a mass panic at the malls for Christmas Shopping and travel due to a powerful winter weather system setting up in the central part of the United States.  I’m gearing up to go cover the storm that Neva and I joked about with having to do so much stuff over Christmas that watch everything gets shut down due to the weather.   Forecasts are for 20+ inches of snow from Minneapolis to Saint Cloud, MN.

Sarah Palin and her family made a visit to the Mall of America today to meet fans and autograph copies of her best selling book “Going Rogue”.
