Anyone seen the dude on One Caribbean Weather who does the horrible sad weather report with the parrot? He's sitting 35ft ahead of me at the airport in Barbados! Anyone have any good questions? I'll probably be here around half an hour.

Edit: I wish I could take a stealth pic but it's a lot harder with my new PDA.

D'oh looks like he left. Maybe it's for the best, if his work is as soul-crushing as it looks I might have pushed him to suicide

I wanted to know where he gets the matching shirts for his parrot.

The entire on-air team of the 24 hour all-caribbean news channel is the whitest group of people I've ever seen. The Osmonds have more soul.

WTF?

Did they just transplant an entire news crew from Dubuque?

I am surprised they are not STATIONED in Dubuque. It seems to be the trend with a lot of regional weather centers being farmed to the next larger metro.

JG, since you are here, where does one find matching shirts for their birds?

Are you looking for a shirt to match the bird or for shirts for the birds to match each other, because it's different places.

I have seen the following celeb's at airports:

Mary Tyler Moore in Minneapolis as she unveiled her statue that day in St. Paul. I stopped her and asked how it went and she told me it was a good day. Oh Rob....
Brooks and Dunn in the Nashville Airport. I was standing behind them and fazed out since I don't know country music that well. But I did notice their luggage tags and then said cool.
I saw Rita Pearlman and Danny Divito and a huge crowd around their Limo at the Kansas City airport departure lane. I was driving so I couldn't hassle them.
Da Bears........Coach Ditka. I saw Mike Ditka in the O'Hare airport at 6:00am on a Saturday morning as he was headed off for his indoor football league. I stopped and talked to him. He gave me a dirty look when I stopped him and said "hey coach?"
I saw Gabe Kaplan in the San Diego airport back in the 1970's.

I love hassling people I don't really know.

I assume it's harder to dress the man and the bird the same than it would be two birds alike.
