Mark: And now here's Mark with the news... Thanks, Mark. Good news, campers. It's the WBBY "Coping Corner"! And here to help you make those critical choices is the WBBY authority figure! Good morning, Mr. Authority Figure! Mike: Good morning, Mark... and good morning to all you guilt freaks out there. Let's start right out with today's special dispensations. First of all, joggers. It's okay not to run today. That's right. You can take the day off. You have permission. And the same goes for you smokers trying to quit. Give yourself a break. Have a cigarette today on Mr. Authority Figure! Okay, let's move right on to today's negative reinforcement. Sunday newspaper readers, you must read the whole paper today, the "Parade" section is not enough. And dieters, I'm very disappointed in you! I know a lot of you have been going off your diets because it's a weekend. Mr. Authority Figure will not stand for it. So cut it out. It's disgusting. Back to you, Mark. Mark: still to come - Mr. Authority Figure mailbag! Mike: Also, I'll be approving of a chocolate cake for some lucky fatty!
