In response to: Remembering Daphne Schirripa
Nick [Member]
There is little doubt how wonderful she was. Daphne accomplished what most people can only hope for: Leave the world a better place than when you entered. Those of us fortunate enough to have been a part of her life certainly are better people for having known her.

Now for the answers:
1) If he knows what's good for him, yes.
2) I have no idea.
3) No raise, but I like where your mind is at.

First: Effin awesome! I think she did a reasonable job of representing the company without betraying the state's economic woes. Bully!
Now, for the questions.
1) Was the host drunk?
2) How was your boss/Cybernet chosen as a guest?
3) Do you get a raise? (I know it's not related, but wishful thinking.)
The subject matter is a little over my head, but even more than that, it's depressing. So much bad news, and it's always someone else's fault. When are people going to realize the government doesn't control the economy? Out of one side of their mouths, they're blaming Obama for the economy -- which is at least 10-years in the making -- and out of the other side, they're cursing him for spending too much money trying to fix it. Oh, and then there's the "why doesn't the government just get out of our lives?" argument from the same people. Maddening.
Sorry about the tangent. Good show, Cybernet!

It scares me to share the road with people like this.

Wow. I know some drummers that wish they could do that. Fun to watch as was the bear. The oil, that is a whole different story.

Wow, way to go safety officer Fujimoto! I will do all of those things. Is it OK that I like to drive sans pants, a la "porky pigging" it? I hope so, because that could really cramp my style.

It's OK, Karin. I cried, too.
Your points each are valid, and I wish more people realized how easy and vital seatbelts are to use.
OH! And solid points about median cable barrier. Even if you didn't mean cable specifically, I get paid to promote them. THEY ARE SAVING LIVES! Of course, people still will think they're a huge waste of money. For more info, go to www.michigan.gov/cableguardrail.

Keep your eyes and attention on the road and what's going on around you. About a year ago, a bicyclist was killed when a van swerved into him. Turns out that the driver of the van briefly took his eyes off the road to change the channel on his radio.
Briefly look both ways when driving through an intersection, even though you have the right of way. Most people don't survive getting t-boned by a car speeding through a red light.
Don't tailgate!
Watch out for the driver who isn't paying attention. A driver instinctively overcorrects after swerving off the road, and you may just be right next to him (or her) when it happens.
Support the state installing barriers in the median on major roadways. There was at least one fatality on US-23 when a car on US-23S crossed the median and hit a car on US-23N. The driver of the car on US-23N died.

HEY! And, yes, I did cry. =)

First, why do people not wear seatbelts? At this point it just seems like second nature to wear one, and not doing so is just begging for the Darwinian theory of natural selection to take be demonstrated.
Second, the Fuj will probably cry when she sees this - she cries at everything.

The bear is awesome, the drummer is on crack (but I love his energy) and oil sucks. I particularly like how the bear takes a moment at the end of the video to lick an area of his body humans cannot lick on themselves. Perfect ending. GO KUNG FU BEAR!

I know! I thought the exact same thing.

Amen, John U. Bacon.
Amen.
On a side note, Bacon doesn't look at all like he sounds on the radio. Weird.

I've seen this before, and it is totally sick. My question is if he can really place the ball that well, why isn't he playing for Inter Milan or something? He could at least take all the free kicks and such. Then I start wondering if it is fake. Then I wonder how many times they tried all of these before they got the successful shot.
No matter what, it sure is fun to watch.

Not my voice, and I think those are other MDOT folks and their kids. Small operation with a BIG message. :o)
