It's a crowded field, but I think some combination ticket with Omar and Mike is the only sane choice for Newbridge...
I'd display their bumper-sticker, for sure!

Signed,

Hopeful

(Great stuff as always, btw! Appreciate the shoutout.)

Thanks! Yes, 10/9/07 (and the rest of October's recaps) will be finished ... eventually.

Thanks for the mayubeniciodeltoro support. I would gladly accept the position of Mike's running mate, although the buzz at Sunday's Pancake Supper was that Mike would soon offer the slot to either Bishop Pablo Fontana or local hero Brock Peuchk.

Post by: Martin on October 30, 2007, 04:25:25 PM: Peuchk got my vote! We need more heroes. (And less Heroes, but that's another matter altogether.)

I haven't seen Stroszek yet, but I'm pro-Herzog. I also like two of the three Lukas Moodyssssson films I've seen, if that helps my case.

Post by: samir on October 30, 2007, 07:52:20 PM: If Brock ran, his little friend would be the guy in the ski-mask. He'd have my vote, too. It's the Hero's Call, to vote for him.

See Stroszek. If you don't hang yourself, we'll talk.

Post by: Mason on October 31, 2007, 10:42:41 AM: It would be an appointment, but I see Omar as Comptroller or Auditor General.

I've been digging the recaps lately. I used to be one of the snobs who'd say, "I just listened to the Best Show. Twice even. What's the use of a recap?" Oh to be young and foolish. They're totally entertaining on their own and offer unique commentary that gives it a whole new context.

You want props? I'll give you props.

Ever consider publishing a Best Show compendium?

Thanks for the props -- glad you've been digging the recaps of late. In the past I've jokingly suggested some sort of fancy hardcover compendium published by McSweeney's. My calls/e-mails to Dave Eggers have not been returned.
