Lessons learned from the storm

One of the Channel 4 reporters -- I think it was Christina Hager -- had 
it fairly easy: seated as a passenger in a van, she narrated the snowy 
scene, speaking to the camera in the back seat.   She was startled to 
see pedestrians jaywalking just a few feet in front of the slowly moving 
vehicle, and called out: "Are you crazy -- crossing the street in front 
of a van?"

Now, friends: Don't do that on live television.    If you insult a 
stranger on live TV, he might talk back to you rudely, and audibly, as 
this one did.

"_You're_ ----in' crazy!"  Yep, live on the 6 o'clock news.

So that's the scene from here; back to you, Jack!
