    Why is it that Todd and myself are the only forum hosts who look like we’re really contemplating the meaning of life??? I think the hand on chin thing should be a prerequisite…

    And, how come Todd and I have been placed on the far right??? Seems like a huge right-wing conspiracy to me…

    There is no contemplating the meaning of life………..its 42

    I had the hand chin thing going for 6 months, then I found out ethenol works wonders on super glue.

    [David Roth Weiss] “Seems like a huge right-wing conspiracy to me…”

    Yes, it may seem a vast right-wing conspiracy but truth be told, we started by placing everyone conservative then liberal, every other one — or was it liberal then conservative? Then we sprinkled in a few centrists, here and there just for laughs.

    In the end though, I think we scrapped it all for a general put the leftists to the left and the arch conservatives to the right, kinda thingie.

    Kinda pretty actually, would you agree?

    We found it remarkable that when we did that, a great mystery appeared in that suddenly all the names were in alphabetical order.

    Spooky.

    Best regards,

    Of course David… everything’s a conspiracy, you should now that by now.

    I would write more, but I have to go adjust the aluminum foil in my hat. I’m also fairly certain that someone is listening to my conversations through the coffee maker.

    That, plus I have a full afternoon of contemplating scheduled…

    Great shot… That must have been a really bad take…

    Yes Randall, it was Todd and I who inspired Auguste Rodin… Without us he would have just been one more would-be artist playing with mud.

    And, if you think about it, without us, Dobie Gillis would never have had a good place to share his inspiration on the old Dobie Gillis Show.

    …whereas my personal inspiration has always been Maynard G. Krebs.
    Funny how life comes full circle.

    [Todd at Fantastic Plastic] “whereas my personal inspiration has always been Maynard G. Krebs.”

    My hero. Television’s unique and fleeting depiction of the beatnik.

    What was Kreb’s ever-present response to a job?

    Anyone? (Just the quote if you know)
