    Click on "hear it" under Dowd's pic, then click on the Who's Carl This Time that starts with "Cheney shrugs."

    Their riffing was actually much longer. I wondered how they got two hours of taping into 48 minutes. Heavy-handed editing!

    Solid work IJAG. You sound much sweeter than all of us know you to be around here :D

    Definitely a solid job. Rarely does a caller get all three questions correctly.

    The Cheney question was a gimme. I immediately knew that the answer to the Obama question was his former minister, but I wouldn't have been able to come up with his name. I don't think I would have come up with the third answer.

    Dammit I wish all three had been celebrity coverage! I wouldn't have even needed to read the news...I just know that shit by osmosis. :D

    How much advance notice did they give you that you'd be on the show?

    I filled out a form on the Web site, and they called me on a Tuesday afternoon. They got more info and said 'We'd like you to be on the show. We'll start you as a backup contestant, which is what everyone does.' So that Thursday night, I sat by a landline in case one of their pre-arranged contestants wasn't reachable. It was a no-go.

    So then I was moved into being one of the pre-arranged contestants. Which happened this week. I found out for sure on Monday, and it was on from there.

    And the owners of the Avalanche Bar didn't mind you monopolizing the pay phone like that?

    Solid.

    Nice job, IJAG. I really liked PART of that third answer. :)

    Glad you could keep that cell phone working long enough to stay connected. ;D

    Had to be done on a landline. And my cell phone works fine since I got a new one three months ago.

    Good to hear, IJAG. That last phone probably met with a terrible death ... I dunno ... running over it with your vehicle. Or maybe an unfortunate left turn.
