Some folks might use the impending holiday weekend as an excuse to shirk work responsibilities or mail it in at the office today. Fortunately for you, the powers that be at the Weekly Wrap-Up are not among those folks. Today’s pre-Independence Day show was bigger and better — OK, it was at least bigger — than usual, featuring three hosts (Danny, Brittany and me) and a full 25 minutes of WWU action.
Now, truth be told, the last couple minutes devolved into a messy mix of Saved By the Bell Trivia and 4th of July plans, but the first 22 were strong to quite strong. Oh, and if you hold out long enough, you can glean some valuable tips for holiday acquatic activities from Danny, our resident water safety expert.
But enough about what’s coming up this weekend. Here’s a look at what we discussed in our review of the week that was on the Silicon Prairie:
