CHRIS MATTHEWS TAPING 'HARDBALL' IN CHAPEL HILL TODAY

Mr. Matthews bears a strong resemblance to a yappy dog that won't stop barking over a very small bone, but he'll be doin' his thang today on the campus of UNC in Chapel Hill ... with Sen. John Edwards as guest. It will air live at 5 p.m. on MSNBC (Channel 36 on the local Charter cable) and will replay at 7 p.m.
