That assumes anyone is paying attention to CBS...

Oh, and this is your buddy Gaucho, posting as VermontGuy. If you will invite me to contribute to the blog, I think we can get rid of my alter ego and have a full roster of "guys" again.

I think I once saw a great headline in a small community paper that said (roughly- the original may have more words)

"WE ARE NOW PUTTING SNAPPIER HEADLINES ON OUR ARTICLES TO ATTRACT GREATER READER INTEREST"

No doubt as the result of tortuous committee work.

That's nothing, NeG. I saw an ad on a grocery cart advertising the (one of four, of course) local TV news triumvirate as "Warm, Young, Smart".

LAGuy: Just the one I received two days ago as Gaucho. Blogger won't let me change my name on that account unless I also change it at the Teahouse. So I created a new blogger ID as VermontGuy with a new email address.

Of course, I can always continue to post as Gaucho if no one minds.
