Dude had the the soundtrack, the audience participation album, and (I believe) a bootleg of the film itself. That's a high bar from the get-go.<BR/><BR/>No only that, Dawg would invent lines to answer all the standard lines -- and, infuriatingly, he would mix it up every week, so that no one could bogart his material. And if his answers did start to enter the canon, he would invent lines to answer those.<BR/><BR/>He was, in short, a one-man Floor Show, a Wild and Untamed Thing.<BR/><BR/>Gene, I salute you for coercing me into the Oriental in the first place -- and for making me sick with anxiety about what happens to <I>RHPS</I> Virgins.

Can't tell you.")<BR/><BR/>Just don't get him going on the subject of Scott the Usher....Crispinushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15806928003525908542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8944798.post-42642178638958970582007-10-24T09:12:00.000-04:002007-10-24T09:12:00.000-04:00Clearly he was not worthy!Clearly he was not worthy!C.

My date took me and there was a costume contest. I won 2nd place as a non-discript transvestite! Could have been the posing, posturing and camping I was doing on stage (I was a ham even then). My date was actually embarrassed. The fool...CLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18348533141508294220noreply@blogger.com
