As soon as we left the studio today, our whole show staff gathered around the coffee maker to talk about just one thing: Emily's lack of experience with dog scarves.
Emily's a hiker, a biker, a woman about town. So it stood to reason that at some point in her peregrinations she'd seen a dog with a bandana around its neck. (In my mind the dogs are always labs, the bandanas are always red, and the effect is always cloying. Like this.)
The topic had come up because we got a caller on today's show who is making dog scarves with Hillary on them. And so while I was imagining frisky retrievers in standard faux-outdorsy habberdashery, Emily was asking, "What about Pekinese? Don't they trip on the ends of the scarf?"
Which cracked us all up. Perhaps Emily had spent too much time in Europe, we thought. Dogs don't wear real scarves! But it turns out she had a point.

Cute dog, scarves are a bit much. I find the show (TOL) quite informative, just the thing for the great NW. Would it be possible for Emily to speak more slowly? It would give her more time to think about her next question and not have to fill the space between with "uh, umm..." ect. Thank you.
