What I was going to say was that this reminds me of the Bake Sale Rush Limbaugh had years ago.

I saw this too. It was great. I've watched FNC exclusively since 11/7/00.

Did you notice the third-world men standing on the sidewalk not doing a thing?

I watched it with an irrepressible smile. Definitely too cool for Today.

When the police car was stuck and they needed more people, Mike Jerrick said 'Where's Paula Zahn when you need her!?!"

Very funny.

What a great story! I imagine Brian came back from Kuwait with an even greater appreciation for America.

Pushing the police car was such a hoot.

Also loved the clips of Brian in Kuwait eating in the mess hall with the troops. Last week when he was actually there, I'd be in tears when the troops were talking to loved ones back home. The guy and his wife with the newborn twins had me sobbing.

I'm on the Left Coast so I don't get to see as much of "Fox and Friends" as I would like (no tape delay). I did see the "car push" -- a great bit!

One question, 'though. Why is Kilmeade always griping about the lack of attention he receives?

I watch Fox and Friends every morning.......and contrary to popular notions about who watches the show, I would be a demographer's/market researcher's dream. Head of household, 47, father of seven, six figure income, college educated, etc., etc..........and a total goofball who enjoys folks who don't take themselves too seriously. :) The trio at Fox and Friends remind me of your goofy but very bright neighbors. I like 'em, I like their stances on most issues, and they do NOT take themselves too seriously. Winning mix in my household.

For some reason FOX isn't coming through today! Its like its scrambled or something, all the rest of the cable channels are fine. Maybe its got something to do with all the snow, I don't know.I must have it! Losing it... fading...this is a bad thing. I'm tellin' ya,a bad thing.

Tell ya what I did do, and before this segment aired, I called Fox News Cable in New York and asked to be put thru to a voice mail that Brian would be likely to hear.

I thanked him from my heart for the joyous, humorous, touching, truly informative and fantastic reporting he did from Kuwait.

I could not help myself, those clips last week were priceless, for us and for our FANTABULOUS MILITARY! (I want more!) Loved his segment on the mess tent today-LOL! But hey-these guys get LOBSTER once in awhile....TERRIFIC!

If anyone feels so inclined to tell Brian in person, via voice mail, how much you appreciated his comments, the Fox News Cable number in New York is 1-212-556-2500

Well, I can't resist. I was one of those guys pushing the police car this morning.

I work in the same building as Fox. I came in early by train this morning to beat the worst of the storm. On my way I passed Rockefeller Center, where only a hardy few were waiting outside to see Al, Matt and Katie do the weather. I thought, hey, today's the day to get on camera, nobody's here.

Called the wife on the cellphone, said "Honey, turn on the Today Show, look for me on the right. I'll wave my briefcase." Al spoke to the people right in front of me, my wife later told me I was there clear as day.

Walked half a block over to Sixth Avenue, crossed the street right at the Fox Studios, saw a bunch of guys going to push a cop car. I decided to join in, because, well, it's what guys do in snowstorms, it's fun, right? It was only when I got to the car that I realized it was the guy from Fox and that someone was filming us. I was the guy right next to him on his left with a green hood, in case anyone saw it.

And has anyone seen that giant snow mountain in the street that Fox has shown a hundred times today? Two of us went out and climbed it an hour ago. Every tourist in town is posing for pictures on top of it, it's (amazingly) higher than the traffic light. A fun day so far.

His reports were always interesting. Sometimes he went too fast, probably due to excitement. But I learned a lot watching the demonstration of the chem suits and the chow lines and so on. Moreover, you can bet our TROOPS appreciated him and Fox. Are there ANY other mainstream news media people there with the troops?

Hard to believe one school district could bring you both Alec Baldwin (the Bloviator) and Brian Kilmeade (who, with Peggy Noonan, seems, from TV, to be the best of the bunch listed below).

  From Baldwin to Bedford Falls

By Michael Watt

So yesterday Bill – you know, William Baldwin of the Massapequa Baldwins -- ...

.... Tim Van Patten whom some of you might remember as “Salami” from “The White Shadow” but that’s only because you don’t know that he has directed several episodes of “The Sopranos” and “Touched By Angel.” ...

Tim, you should know, also graduated from Massapequa High School. With me, Class of 1977. As did Brian Setzer, Brian Baldinger of Fox Sports and NFL fame and Jessica Hahn, for that matter. Jerry Seinfeld graduated a few years (1972) before I did, but my brother in-law lives with his family in the first house the Seinfelds bought when they moved to Massapequa. My good friends Laura Savini of WLIW Channel 21 and Brian Kilmeade of Fox News are also from Massapequa. Peggy Noonan the speechwriter grew up in Massapequa Park, and Ron “Born on the Fourth of July” Kovic’s father was my Little League coach.

Oh, and did I mention the Buttafuoco’s (MHS Class of 1974, both of them)?


Not all the following folks grew up in the Massapequa/Massapequa Park area

Neighborhood News

Race car champion Jim Brown lived in Massapequa Park until a crackup took his life in the very race that made him famous all those years, the Indianapolis 500...

Weatherman Frank Field lived in Nassau Shores, where his son, meteorologist Storm Field, later made his home.

Will Rogers, homespun writer, sharp-witted philosopher, comedic cinema cowoy had a home on Clocks Boulevard in East Massapequa. Some of his contemporaries lived across the street and together they rode the marshes making action films.

Christine Jorgenson, who had the first highly publicized sex change operation, lived just west of the Massapequa reservoir. She took walks around the neighborhood, attracting the curious from all over. An observer’s walk to the bocce court and/or the reservoir would usually net a view of the long-legged beauty, who was once a guy.

Did anyone catch the bit about the quote that was posted outside the entrance to Camp New York? I think it was a quote from Isaiah? Anyone recall?
