Today in the News 7/2/2013:
Today marks another hot day for us here in Northern California and I know the media will be picking up the story from yesterday about that. The other for sure hot topic will once again be the traffic nightmare from the BART strike. One thing I don't believe will be covered today is the sweeping changes at local CBSSports 1140 and their new line up for Monday July 8. 5:30-9am Carmichael Dave returns, 9-12pm Jim Rome, 12-3pm Don Geronimo & 3-7pm Grant Napier. However could a simple tweet mean the return to TV mornings for Don Geronimo? He spent a few months with Good Day Sacramento a couple of years ago so stay posted here for more as it develops.
What else will the news cover today....?

Final Question: what was favorite thing to cook as a teen/kid?

Final Thoughts:
The news of the day held true to my predictions in addition to the accident that occurred taking power out around 10am.
My 58 bored me completing but they did provide info on cool bike trail.
Fox again fails this time with no address for Red Rabbit though I already knew it was on J. I have a friend who works there so I could get provide it.
Now to Good Day Sacramento who in my opinion won the ratings again today. I was hoping for a photo of the scooter races but sadly no photos posted. However the photos posted may not do total justice but cool nonetheless. Like Alan in a helicopter. However Good Day Sacramento could not escape it's share of criticism. The show had some technical issues with its web stream upsetting many who watch the show via the web. This was not the first time nor would it or will it be the last but I will say the problem occurs far too often for this to keep happening and viewers too want to stay to keep watching.
Stay cool and have a great rest of your day.
