Harry Uggams is in Queens to give us a follow-up on yesterday's bizarre sex crime. Neil Simmons covers a Terre Haute story of scuba divers competing for marbles in a huge vat of jello. Rodney Klein and Anita Menendez will offer their critique on this station's new matching blazers. And finally we will all nitpick our weatherman, Mister Fasial Huffines. Please stay tuned..."
