A Slice of Our Night Life

We are watching the Channel 7 news at 11:00. The weatherman transitions from a story about how average people are being priced out of L.A. housing to the blistering temperatures very, very badly.

"I could never be a weatherman," Russell says. "Those transitions."

I start laughing so hard I get the hiccups. "THAT'S why you couldn't be a weatherman? Not because of the meterological research, but because of the transitions?!"

Russell, by now, is laughing so hard that he can barely speak. "I guess -- the meterological research -- that could also hold me back."

The weather man points, then jumps into a crouch, a la Billy Blanks.

"He's very atheletic," Russell says. "That's another reason I could never be a weatherman. "
