Live-Blogging Carl Kasell's Final Newscast →
I just listened to this and I’m here at the office. And is it embarrassing to say that I am still crying? I don’t think so.
I miss Carl already. Tomorrow’s news just won’t be as noteworthy.
And to it’sherfactory - do it. I still have my recording and I love it so.

They combined Big Night and The Imposters!
I’m watching the US “Office” and maybe I’m making a snap judgement, but it’s not funny. (Also, I don’t really miss TV, but I did enjoy the CNN coverage of Questions to the Prime Minister last night. Great entertainment. And maybe it was the accents, but it was far better than this “Office”.)
