"Before you know it as the years go by, you're just like other people you have seen, with all those peculiar human ailments. Just another vehicle for temper and vanity and rashness and all the rest. Who wants it? Who needs it? These things occupy the place where a man's soul should be." -- Henderson the Rain King

The Wappler Doppler

Our local weather man on KIRO is named Andy Wappler (pronounced Whoppler), which means that every time they run an ad for the nightly news they mention the Wappler Doppler. I don't know if that's as funny to anyone else as it is to me, but everytime I see one of those commercials I end up rolling on the floor laughing. Good times.

The "Wappler Doppler" was actually named after Harry Wappler (sounds like an odd and hopefully rare medical condition), Andy's father.

And you are right...it is funny *every* time.
