I can see where you're coming from.
When we first got FoxNews on our cable, I jumped every time one of those 'dire warning' alerts came on.
Now, I'm pretty numb to them.
If they ever announce that global nuclear warfare has just commenced, I probably won't even know about it until I see the flash....:)
YEah and then they had a whole combination of them. I mean I can see the one they just need on Roger Ebert and his serious condition but every time a big holiday comes around and FOx does these alerts I have am expecting them to annouce that terrorist just attacked the National Mall or something. It gives always gives me a start. I have email Fox but like my 20 other suggestions it is ignored (sigh)
