I'm happy that the archive descriptions for this year have been updated. I missed those.

Wow that's awesome!!!

Awesome! The Recidivism recaps are great for in-depth descriptions, but it's nice to be able to quickly look for one specific thing.

When they ask how Tom spent his Thanksgiving weekend, he can tell them that he filled in eighteen months of archive descriptions.
I am four shows away from being done. If anybody out there can give me the bullet points for those final four shows, I would be appreciative. My head is spinning and I hate the sound of my own voice right now.
Omar has proven himself to be a WORLD CLASS CHAMPION with his recaps. I have never has as much respect for the man as I do today. Reading through those recaps for the last week has been truly impressive.
Please post bullet points in here and I will close this thing out.
Thanks!
Tom.

Tom,
Here are the bullet points for the final description-less show, September 14 2004, if you want to fill it in.
- Calls from Laurie from Miami, Officer Tom and Petey
- Listener Chris serves as correspondent from, and eventually gets kicked out of, MOVIN' OUT, the Billy Joel musical
- Some talk of Little Steven's Underground Garage Festival (The Stooges inspire mania! Bo Diddley rapped!)
- Tom somehow made the listeners think he has Green Day tickets to give away
- Rafer Guzmán, the rock critic from Newsday calls in, then gets GOMP'd
- Tom got screwed out of Jets tickets by his co-worker Jerry, and caller Trish tries to help them work it out
- Tom is going to Los Angeles for two weeks
--Jouster

Ugh . . . Trish.

Ugh . . . Trish.
Also one of my least favorite caller-moments.

Its like I had amnesia and then someone punched me in the face and I didn't have amnesia anymore.
