My friends and I talk about the show all the time.

I have a simple request.....write a short post about something funny on the
show.

I just did elsewhere. But what would be the point in doing this for
YOU? You don't like the show, so not only would my descriptions of
the humor not do it justice, but even I were magically able to make
funny with words something that happened you still would just respond
with some version of "yeah, real funny. ha ha."

There is nothing in that for me, and I don't owe you anything, so
sorry but no sale.

Talking about the show is fun with someone else who a) likes the show
and b) listened to the same part you did. When someone asks "Did you
hear yesterday when..." and the answer is 'no', there is great
disappointment because both people know that if you weren't "there",
you probably won't find a description of what happened to be funny.
Of course there are SOME situations that may lend themselves to a
simple description, but those would be the exceptions.


Pick something from tomorrow's show.......SORRY...I just remembered the
goblin doesn't work on Friday's......OK....not a problem.....pick the
funniest thing that you heard on the show today.

Since we don't have sirius.....and don't even have the ability to hear the
show......we would appreciate just hearing about some of the funny stuff
that we're missing.

None of us are too proud to admit that we've been wrong.....and we all might
just say.....Wow... Stern is funny again .....let's go out and get
sirius....
