more like good at being off-topic, though almost always very funny.
but you're taking away from the point, which is that NPR and PBS will be reduced to some dude mumbling the aviation weather.
apathy rules.

'i love chopper john'
you remember that commercial? forget who it was for but it was a dude on a cell phone getting weather updates and he's on the radio and goes 'now for the weather, how's it in the sky chopper john?' and he searches weather on his phone while some kid is like 'chop chop chop chop chop chop (making helicopter sounds)' in the background.
then it cuts to these two old guys fishing and the guy is like 'i love chopper john'
hahaha. that part rocks!

...There is a plot to politicize public broadcasting. It is plain as a pikestaff, and it is coming from the Right. It is obvious, undeniable and happening right now. The Bush administration is introducing a political agenda to public broadcasting. They are using the lame pretext that PBS is somehow liberal to justify it into a propaganda organ for the government...
that's a good reason to fight to save pbs, from this article:
