Channel 7 appears to need a new meteorolgist, and if I
occupied an executive suite there, I'd definitely consider 
finding a place for Mike Wankum (unless he expects too much wampum
for Sunbeam's penurious proclivities).  Another WB56 face to 
consider adding: Lauren Jiggetts, probably the
most attractive TV newser in town right now.
