My favorite line from the trailer:

"Is there a hidden camera around here somewhere?"-Alan Thicke

I think I'll put this up there with the Stuttering John film.

Last night everyone was loving Tommy G. call after call.

I lost power around 11 PM due to the almost hurricane winds that occured during those bad thunderstorms and the station that was live and local and giving the most instant information that time of night was NJ101.5. I tuned around the dial on my little back up radio and everyone else had nothing, syndicated programs or very little information. Tommy G reassured everyone that PSE&G JCP&L and First Energy were out trying to restore power as quickly as possible. I wish all stations were live and local 24 hours a day so they can respond to situations like this. Isn't that what's serving the community is all about ?
