3. On a juror being discharged from a rape case after being caught smoking cannabis in the court toilets:

4. On a bunch of different uses for vodka, including a way to remove a bandage painlessly by saturating the bandage with vodka:
“Actually, if you drink the entire bottle first, removing the bandage probably won’t hurt, either …”

LOS so soon we forget. We got that one day of accumulated snow fall. 22 inches if I recall. John Bolaris I salute you!

John Bolaris (born June 27, 1957) is the chief meteorologist for WTXF (Fox-29) in Philadelphia.

Bolaris' most recent tenure was at WCBS-TV, New York. He started his career in 1982 at Metro Weather Service where he worked as a syndicated meteorologist until 1987, when he joined News 12 Long Island. Later that year, he joined WCBS-TV for the first time as the weekend meteorologist and worked there for the next three years.

From 1990 until 2002, he worked at WCAU-TV (NBC-10) in Philadelphia as the chief meteorologist. In 2003, Bolaris returned to CBS-2 in his home city of New York.

On November 1, 2007, it was announced that he would move back to Philadelphia to become the chief weatherman for [WTXF-TV], for their 5 p.m and 10 p.m. newscasts. His first broadcast upon his return to Philadelphia was on January 8, 2008.

He has an associate's degree in applied science from Suffolk County Community College and studied meteorology at the U.S. Air Force Weather Technical School.

Bolaris has won four Emmy awards—three for Best Weathercaster and one for Best Entertainment Host for "Time Out," a show he co-hosted for five years on NBC 10. [1]

He has one daughter, Reina Sofia with The CW 11's (WPIX's) Tiffany McElroy, who also worked with Bolaris at WCAU in Philadelphia.
