Deborah Aaronson just appeared on your program and she made me laugh aloud at her ignorance when she said we should avoid black cats today as they are considered unlucky. I wonder if Ms. Aaronson thinks we shouldn't feed our black cats today either; or perhaps we should just run over our black cats in our lucky red car whilst wearing our lucky red underwear. My black cat just declared this day "Avoid Deborah Aaronson Day" and since he's smarter than she is I'm celebrating along with him. Happy Avoid Deborah Aaronson Day!
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN,
WHEN THE SEGMENT WAS ALMOST OVER, YOU HAD A TABLE WITH ITEMS THAT REPRESENT GOOD LUCK. YOU HAD A PIG ON THAT TABLE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE TO BUY IT, FOR MY GRANDDAUGHTER LOVES PIGS.
IF YOU COULD GET ME THIS INFORMATION, I WOULD APPRECIATE VERY MUCH.
I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE MORNING NEWS FOR YEARS NOW BEFORE I GO TO WORK. SOMETIMES I CANNOT GET OUT OF MY APARTMENT FOR I WANT TO LISTEN AND WATCH WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO OR SAY.
ALSO, I REALLY LIKE LINDA CHURCH'S WARDROBE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE I CAN BUY THE TOPS SHE WEARS. SHE HAS GREAT TASTE IN CLOTHES.
BEST REGARDS,
LINDA SCHANTZ
