Proud to be an American!
Last week I called on all of you to lift your voices, to come together as patriots and pedal the wheels of democracy, and vote Johnny Lerro as the "Sexiest Local TV Personality" in Chicago. Big government (Redeye) tried to muzzle us. They tried to keep Johnny's sexiness locked away in a secret military prison (their meeting room).
But they couldn't.
They closed the voting early. Or, maybe it closed on time and I didn't bother to learn that beforehand. But in just 3 days . . 3 DAYS . . we managed to garner Johnny enough write-in votes to be listed in the final results. Do you know what that means?
Johnny Lerro is the Ralph Nader of Sexy Chicago TV Personalities.
Congratulations are in order to Larry Potash, as well. He made a valiant run at Johnny, finishing right behind him in the write-in category. But like Mr. Nader, Johnny is a member of the Green Party (hence, the fingernails), and once it mobilized for this popular vote, Larry didn't stand a chance.
I'm so proud of all of you who raised your torches of liberty, and waved them as symbols of Johnny's hotness. Now the next time an apathetic friend tells you they're not voting, because "one vote doesn't matter" . . . I want you to drop kick them.
There's no room in this country for people without conviction.
But as they lay on the ground, dazed, gasping for air, I want you to share this story with them. I want you to tell them about Johnny Lerro- a man who lived the American Dream- and how you helped him pursue his own dream . . . of life, liberty, and the pursuit of the sexiest fruits and vegetables.

Johnny Lero is weird, I miss the fresh grocer, but he had to lead off into the 5th-rating news channel.

I always enjoy the cooking segments, and the one the other day, with the high school student sharing her award winning pie recipe was very interesting, and with Larry enjoying the pie was very entertaining
I wish though, that more time can be given to these segments, one of the anchors are always saying due to time, we have to "hurry" and "let's speed it up" we only have a few more seconds. I feel this is very rude to the guests, tha they have to hurry through their segments. Give the people enough time to share their particular item, with out the anchors saying,"let's hutty and do this, before our time runs out"
I really enjoy the morning crew as well as WGN news all of the time, the morning crew is crazy, but that is what makes the show entertaining, I know some people don't care for a lot of their routines, but I enjoy them, but I hate to see them rushing their guests.
Thank you
