Mine was, but I've never really even told anyone at the office that I was on, so it's no big deal. I did get some calls afterward from people I hadn't heard from in years who were stunned to see me on TV, which was kind of odd...

Answer: Yes. I was on Studs. No, you cannot see the tape.

Not a game show, but I was on Woof! with Uncle Matty. Unfortunately, it's still on PBS in re-runs. I had never seen it before, and if I had known what his training methods were I never would have agreed to it.

No, I am not going to tell you my dog's name.

I know, I know -- I was just trying (in an apparently vain attempt to be funny) to poke a little fun at myself and my inabilities.

Whatevah.

(But did you hear that TM? You're all mine!!)

I'm pretty sure she isn't naming names because she was embarrassed having to yell out "C'mon big money! No Whammies!"

Wow! It's time for the "the game show I was on is smarter than the game show you were on" argument already? Time flies.

Yeah, that's so much lamer than the "Spooky is lousy in bed" or the "TM can't play hoops" argument. Thanks for pointing out the error of our ways. We'll try to do better to live up to your standards and expectations.

I would like to be a contestant and completely suck, just to hear:

"That’s right, Dave --you lost. And let me tell you what you didn’t win: A twenty volume set of the Encyclopedia International. A case of Turtle Wax, and a year’s supply of Rice-a-Roni, the San Francisco Treat.

But that’s not all. You also made yourself look like a jerk in front of millions of people. You brought shame and disgrace to your family name for generations to come.

You don’t get to come back tomorrow.
You don’t even get a lousy copy of our home game.
You’re a complete loser!"

Hell, we can go to court and hear that.

This show was the highlight of my day when I was home sick from elementary school. 7-Up and Press Your Luck. Good times.

I think the game show stuff is funny and interesting. As you can tell its the smarter of us who have been on game shows.
Anyway, I have never heard the game show stuff before so I thought the "its that time again" thing like people do for recurring arguments would be funny.

Alas, another lesson for ole Hank.

Well, the last stanza anyway. Our local courts don't give away Rice-a-Roni any more. Damn those budget cuts.

THIS POST CONTAINS AVERAGE JOE SPOILERS -- DO NOT READ IF YOU ACTUALLY TIVO'D THAT PIECE OF CRAP TO WATCH LATER

After watching the Average Joe last night and reading Thurgreed's post about it, I started thinking about whether there is any female celebrity that I think is so cheesy that I wouldn't date a guy who dated her. I just can't think of any female equivalent of Fabio.

So, a poll. Is there any female or male celebrity, besides Fabio, that you hate/dislike/disdain so much that you would never date a person (even if that person is really hot and you like them) just b/c they dated the hated celebrity?

I don't think I could date any guy who had ever dated Jennifer Love Hewitt. This means that Carson and Alec lost their chances at me, fools.
