    Happy B-Day, Sprinkles, You’re halfway to 60. Wait, isn’t there some sort of health code banning 29-year-old cupcake sprinkles. You’re gonna have to go. Oh, and push the fish.

    Good Night & Good Luck,
    -Don Imus

    Sherri, you are giving him an even bigger head. Now he thinks he is special.

  4. Sparky Says:

    Thank you all!…(applause stops)I am very appreciative and honored to be the headline on SherriTalley.com. I hope that you too will one day know how it feels to have this honor bestowed upon you. Yes it’s true I am 29 today and next month marks my 10th anniversary here at KTBS-3. That’s also ten years that I have endured the wrath of the anchor we call Sherri Allen Talley!

    Oh! Like the ‘wrath’ is unwarranted! Let’s let the others know about the ‘jacket’ edisode, shall we, Sparky!

  6. Sparky Says:

    Now I admit that was funny, but I did not “make” you do it. It was just friendly advice from your director. I just wanted you to know that the jacket reflected a whole lot of light and that the cameras were having to be shaded quite a bit more than normal. Plus if you have had that jacket for three years isnt it time for it to go to Goodwill?!?!

    Awww… I remember when you were just a pup. A young weekend director with color bars in your eyes. Now look at you! I’m so proud! :) Happy B-day Sparkles!

    Sparky, you’re fired.

  12. sparky Says:

    rt: Does this mean I do not have to come to work today? You better call Weimar at home and tell him he has to come in and direct the 5,6, promos, sportsline, 9, 10, and overnight!

    Happy burfday sparky! i was there when you used to be called Tim.

  14. Colleen Spillane Says:

    Actually it makes me reflect on my new workplace where we are not allowed to page..and when we are paged by the receptionist, we are paged by a number. I am no longer Colleen…I am 2271! Took me over a year to stop fighting that fight.
    But…really if I think about it, I can remember making station-wide pages…IN A PLACE OF BUSINESS mind you…that would go something like; “Sparkles call 856 please.” or “Spider Monkey you are needed in the newsroom.” or “T-Bone dial *63.” or “Jason Weimar report to the mens room..they are out of toilet paper.” Usually these were done for the delight of a newsroom tour group.

  15. Sherri Says:

    CWA, this deserves its own topic!

    And there’s a reason they won’t let you page.
