Is anyone else as annoyed by flakiness as I am? or is everybody too fickle to take a side?

Leotard (chezanne.sflak.info)
If you've ever wanted to see a man in a leotard - you got more than anyone could ever want LIVE on Good Morning Utah yesterday. It was tight, revealing, bedazzled, and it was all me.

Very few people can say they know man who is Bear, now priveledged to say I'm one of them. I met the man behind the fur, did the same stunts, and performed with him in costume at the Utah Jazz game. This is my story behind the story.

This morning my photographer and I had a "near death experience" at the Days of 47 Rodeo. Key word is near.

Bluffdale resident describes speeding problem (Bill Brussard)
I just finished the lastest installment of Speed Zapper. This week I'm trying a new approach. This week I'm in Bluffdale. A woman who'd seen Speed Zapper wanted me to come to her neighborhood. She told me cars there drive way too fast, and there's a lot of young kids who live there. She's worried someone is bound to get hurt. If you've seen any of my Zapper stories you know I grill Speeders who drive fast in neighborhoods and school zones. This time I changed it up. I didn't grill one speeder, but we got people driving way over the speed limit to slow down. Tune in Monday on Good Morning Utah @ 6 a.m. to see how we did it, as well as ABC 4 News at 5 p.m.
