One curmudgeonly St. Louis talk show host, in his later years, set one ground rule for callers early in the year.
"We're not going to talk about how cold it is," he said. "It's January. January is supposed to be cold."
I don't blame him for staving off a barrage of "Cold enough for you?" calls. If I'd been a talk show host, I probably would have set the same restriction.
