> [@Duckster](#): > > Katie did an inteview earlier this week on a sex topic with a medical doctor. Her interview skills where that of a 16-year-old, full of tongue-ties, misspeaks and stutters. She was obviously embarrassed by the very topic. From the very little I’ve been able to listen to her without getting physically ill, this is her style in general. Because of her, I no longer enjoy watching the Olympics, she’s such an idiot and bad reader, her misspeaks and stutters make the whole thing unendurable. ---

Reading between the lines, I think what you’re trying to say is: YOU LOVE KATIE! ---

Yeah, but Anne Curry has it goin’ on! She’s a cutie. Heh, speaking of dumpy, I don’t think it gets much worse than Matt Lauer and 'ol Al Roker. 😃 ---

It doesn’t seem to fit with the morning anchor type. My guess is he’s going bald. Did he ever give an explanation? I don’t watch the _Today Show_, so unless I turn the TV on to NBC in the morning, I really don’t pay any attention. I did notice the haircut though. ---

Something about Katie Couric’s mouth makes me think she’s really cute sometimes and really hideous sometimes. Oh yea, it’s freakin’ huge. That’s what it is. ---
