Angry Weatherboy Gives Thanks
Lately I've run into more and more people who have been wondering if everyone on the show is as angry as it seems on TV.
In general the answer is no.
Robin is crazy angry...but in some way it's part of her charm.
She blames it on her "Crazy Parents". (Ask me, her parents seem normal)
Anyway, I don't think we're any angrier than anyone else who wakes up in the middle of the night.
As a matter of fact, I think all of us have a deep gratitude for where we are in our careers and for our friends, families and loved ones.
We also hold deep gratitude toward the people who decide to watch us every morning. So, thanks.
I really believe that each of us would say that we are humbled at how generous God has been with us...
So, in honor of Thanksgiving, I will confess that I am thankful for the 10 years I've been here. (I am especially thankful for Larry's weekly warm embrace. (Great hands))
I am especially thankful for the marvelous friendships that I have been fortunate enough to enjoy. (I am ready for Pat to move out of my extra bedroom...It's been 16 months now...get your own place buddy.)
This is a fun job and in spite of all we say... a great place to work.
I am thankful to be here.
Not.
Just kidding.

p.s. Don't be mistaken...I am still very angry about being overlooked for employee of the month for 124 months in a row. I have been royally screwed!!!

...don't think you guys seem angry; it's just that dry (and sometimes offbeat) sense of humor that I too have and can relate too. Each of you add something funny to the morning news...

Paul--The morning show is quite different if you are not there. Your comebacks are great with perfect timing. You will take on projects that nobody else seems to handle as well as you do.
Stay angry, but don't depart.
It's so good in the a.m. to wake up to you and your WGN news comrads.
By the way, I love your little children when you have had them on as well as Mollie

I really appreciate the fact that your show is real easy on the ears. I work nights and sometimes want to sleep a little longer and your show just lulls me back to sleep. Hey that's a good thing! The best way to "see" how good your show is, is to just listen to it vs. see and hear. Try it it works for me. I hate GMA and those screaming MImi's at every weather forcast..ugh!

I love the morning show it helps me to fall back to sleep when the hubby has to get up early. The morning weather segements are best for that.
