TTS Criteria

In case anyone's wondering why today's TTS was Frank Morano's record breaking marathon talk show broadcast (see previous entry) and not the rather more newsworthy stories occuring on the Island - The massive Paper Mill fire, the tragic death of a young boy killed when a TV set toppled on him, yet another senseless teen suicide, or any of the political stories gaining local ink (Nascar and the rest) - I've decided TTS (Today's Top Story) posts will focus on slightly more eccentric news items - hopefully events that are in some way uniquely Staten Island.

Larger and less amusing stories may well appear on occasion but I'll be making an effort to avoid most "hard" news.
