Anyway, my point here was going to be that he makes this one "joke" all the time that annoys the hell out of me. Whenever he meets a just married couple, he turns to the man and says "when did you get married?" and the guy answers, then Al says "that's the last word you'll ever get in." I will estimate that I have heard him make that joke 20 times in the last year, and each time he does so it brings me one step closer to hunting him down outside the Today show studios in Times Square and causing him grave physical harm. Keep up with that joke, Al. It just gets funnier and funnier each time you attempt it.

Interesting. I was just going to post that his wife, Deborah Roberts, appears to have the more serious journalistic career, and I wonder how that affects him.
Studies show that in emotional level, most men are not happy when their wives' careers are more high-octane than theirs.
