I do not like cliches in news copy or any other writing.

I do like it when someone butchers a cliche, either on purpose or by mistake.  That’s funny.   

 We had a KTBS photographer who was the best at accidentally crafting entertaining cliches.  Two of my favs:  “He was running around like a chicken with his nose cut off.”  And, “She was driving like a bat out of a cave.”

A friend of mine from another country once told me I was comparing apples to pears. 

Your comments on cliches?  

Tuesday, June 24th, 7 p.m. Central on ABC.  This will make you laugh!  I’ve seen episodes.  After seeing the episodes with commentary, I don’t think the promo ABC is currently airing does the show justice.  Click here to see it.   If you keep watching, you’ll see promos that include the commentary, then you get more of a feel for the show’s humor.

The penguin prank in Mansfield was so well executed.  Suzie Talley was the queen of effective pranks when she was in college.  Hey, LindsAy, remember when I kidnapped your cow and sent you ransom notes and pictures? 

Afriad to post a comment here?  Not sure how?  Some people have told me they’re not quite sure they trust this process.   They say they read postings and comments, but are hesitant to comment.  This might help:

–You don’t have to reveal your real name.

–Your email address won’t be revealed.

–I don’t know everyone who registers a comment and I don’t revel the identities of those I do know, unless they have first identified themselves on this site.

–To comment, simply click on the orange square with the number in it and follow the instructions at the bottom of the comments.

–Jump in.  It’s fun.
