You no say daddy me Snow me I'll go blame

Top 5 things we learned watching Eyewitness News ROUND-THE-CLOCK coverage of the BLIZZARD OF 2006(!!!).

(Ech):

1. IT SNOWED A LOT AND CARS, IF YOU SEE HERE, ARE COVERED IN SNOW!
2. CARS GET STUCK IN THE SNOW!
3. COMMUTERS DUMB ENOUGH TO COMMUTE IN A BLIZZARD GET STUCK IN THE SNOW!
4. IF YOU SEE HERE, IT'S STILL SNOWING!
5. AND THIS PERSON HERE IS CLEARLY STUCK IN THE SNOW!

We watched the noon top of the hour broadcast on Channel 7 in New York yesterday. Then we watched the 11 p.m. lead stories, after the Grey's Anatomy.

Hands down our favorite moment yesterday was last night, when a clearly rattled Channel 7 reporter in Bergenfield said the following, while standing in the parking lot of a 7-11:

"We're here in Burgerfield and --"

(EXTRA FROM SK8TER BOI VIDEO RUNS BY, ARMS FLAILING AND SCREAMING).

(CUT TO B-ROLL).

(CUT BACK TO REPORTER, NOW STANDING IN STREET).

"So that's the story from Bringhamfield, where --"

"BEEEEEEEEP BEEEEEEP," says the SUV trying to turn into the lot, blocked now by the Channel 7 crew.

* Honorable mention goes to the snow blower guy in Brooklyn who waved maniacally at the Channel 7 crew to get the f*ck out of his way while he cleared the sidewalk.
