Hey kids. With Dave in reruns this week, I've been forced to entertain
myself. Usually that results in a rash and/or court date.. but this
time it results in my..

Top 10 Signs You're Obsessed With The Late Show:

10. Your strict "no-talking during the show" policy includes
commercial breaks and a 5-minute post show "cool down."

9. During lovemaking, you scream "Who Asked For It?"

8. Bill DeLace recognizes your face and name. / You know who Bill
DeLace is. (tie)

7. You reenact the show every morning with homemade Paul and Dave
dolls.

6. You're still holding a candle-light vigil for the return of Pea
Boy.

5. Your apartment is known as "The Dave Cave," but your name isn't
Dave.

4. Constantly on alt.fan.letterman, arguing the historical
significance of Peggy The Foul Mouthed Chambermaid.

3. The centerpiece of your shrine for Chris Elliott is a giant jar
containing Chris Elliott.

2. All you ever wear is double-breasted suits and your Larry "Bud"
Melman pajamas.

1. After all these years, you're still searching for Dave's erotic
blog.

1. At a Phillies game this week, the big screen told us to "make
some noise".....and I felt really guilty/weird whilst wooing.


2. I met a fellow artist yesterday who lives in Brooklyn, she
mentioned the bridge, and I felt compelled to tell her how Dave and
Harry walked across it. Like she gave a rat's ass.

My TV remote control won't work, even with new batteries and I'm
wondering how I'm going to access the VCR to tape new shows next week.
This concerns me more than having to get up to change channels.

An improvement on the clunky old "DVR" that resolves the old problem of shows
not ending when they're supposed to; you just set it up to record for an extra
ten minutes or whatever and you don't have to worry about missing the closing
segment....r

If you have the model number, try Googling for it and see if there's a PDF of
the instructions online somewhere....r

Last night we attended a phenomenal wedding reception. First class

The Eddie Bruce Band. Wow. Almost as good as the CBS Orchestra.
I'm sure I'm the only guest that thought that.

My TiVo does that. Quite handy when recording live sporting events
(TdF).

Is that a dig? I have a cold; don't expect perfection. Turned out to
be a fabulous list. I, myself, personally LOVE it! If you want to,
turn it upside down and do it the right way. :p

Sally

P.S. ....and nobody said a dirty word, but Zsa Zsa was perfect...these
were really great, even if I didn't start with a 10. My bad. Uvula and
ZuZu's Petals were my faves.

have begun with "10" for the last 25 years.

I've created a program to reset the list.

Didn't use a Mac though so you might not be able to read if properly.
