Is that a weather map in Pete Bouchard's pocket, or is he just glad to see us?

how much snow?

UPDATE: YouTube has taken down the clip because of a "copyright claim" from Channel 7. Fail Blog still has it up, link in the comments, but in case it disappears from there, it's a capture of Bouchard talking about snow totals on Jan. 18. He points to a listing for Princeton and says "the biggest amount that I could find, almost as big as me, about nine inches." And then he glances off to the side, as if he's expecting a giant hook to come pull him off the set.

Pete Bouchard puts together a pretty impressive weather package:

My girlfriend *thought* she heard him say that. I told her, "give it a few hours and check YouTube." Thanks for coming through.

Try some different blogspot URLs and see if blogspot is blocked, then see if are all "gay" sites blocked, etc. Try GLSEN or LOGO or LGBT health coalition or something to see if more straight-laced (pun intended) GLBT sites are blocked.

If they're blocking personal blogs, that seems basically appropriate. If they're blocking GLBT sites, that's particularly problematic at a healthcare institution where providers are hopefully educating themselves on the cultures they serve.

...although interestingly, it's not actually mentioned under the acceptable use policy, but rather under the section regarding quick facts for laptop use. more likely than not this one is getting filtered for excessive nudity. there's a lot of hot naked guys on that blog.

but not pete bouchard. not that he's not hot. just that he's really not nude.

just sayin', since you can't see it.

That blog seems to be basically decent, but a bit on the racy side. Ads for sex toy shops, etc. Which, really, shouldn't be a big deal or anything, but I can see why a business wouldn't want to be liable for that stuff being up on someone's screen and someone feeling it was harassment or something.

BWH reminds you that with any electrical device, there are risks of electrocution, battery explosion, transmission of infection or contamination, as well as risks from electrical currents while using your laptop computer.

Uh, thanks?

... if they get radioactive material on my laptop.

this may be true, but given that i will be underneath my laptop, i am going to hold them accountable anyway!

oh, wait. they require a use a table and not hold my laptop on my lap. must be because they know it will be dripping with radioactive green ooze and don't want me to get sick. how nice of them :)

I'll have to forward this to a friend of mine who is a teevee meteorologist. However, I suspect Pete was really just having some green-screen fun. I also imagine that his producer won't be letting him live this one down for a while...

Copyright my ass… this is fair use… it's educational.

Anyone else have another source for it? I wasn't able to show it to the PB fan in my house yet.

I just amazed that one of 5 people who still watch local network news was sentient enough to catch this gaffe. Seriously? Who but shut-ins and inmates watches local news broadcasts anymore?
