I just went to the UPS center in my area to pick up a package that was sent to me from the FOTs.
I opened it with excitement but never could have expected what was inside the large box.
A massive FRAMED PAINTING in the LeRoy Neiman style of me wearing my crown. It's a version of the photo of me in front of the Girls Gone Wild bus that you can see on my MySpace page.
Words cannot express how truly touched and blown away I am by this. It is just jaw dropping.
This is a collective thank you to everyone who made this happen. It reminds me why this is The Best Show On WFMU - because of YOU!
(I say this assuming that Fredericks or Charlie were not a part of this).
I will contact everybody individually as well.
Thanks again and happy holidays to you all!
Tom.

Awesome. Any chance you could post a picture of it?
Happy December Wishes, Tom.

Sounds awesome! I wish I had known about it, I would've chipped in. Oh well.
Merry Christmas Tom and the FOT!

sorry about that. it was kind of hard spreading the word while still keeping it secret. Keep in mind, this was a present on behalf of ALL the FOT.
Ho Ho Ho

If money was involved, how about letting us contribute after the fact? Since the gift was in all our names, it seems only right that we should be allowed to bear our share of the expense.

Incredible. Love it.
-
Woah, that's awesome. FOT're the best people ever for sending that, I love us!

if you want to shoot me a couple of dollars to help with the fabrication cost & shipping, I won't object. my paypal is kickthebobo-at-gmail.com. Any money beyond what the actual costs where will be donated to Kiva.org.
Again, if you were not on my original email list (you were Sarah, but I think it got bounced back) from when we did the sound effects machine gift, nor where you forwarded the message about this per my instructions to "spread the word", then this may not have been on your radar until now. I'm sorry if anyone felt left out.
happy holidays!

I was on the list but never found out where to kick in, KTB,so I'll be sure to do so now. Great job on making this happen!

(I say this assuming that Fredericks or Charlie were not a part of this).
Just want to say, I read this before I listened to the latest show, and wondered who Charlie was. The very second the person I would soon know to be "Charlie" spoke, I said aloud at my desk "Yep. This is Charlie." Lo and behold...

I was pretty confused about Charlie too. Haven't had a chance to listen to the whole episode from this week. I assume I'm in for a doozy?

That's fucking cool! Merry Christmas everybody!

Good. Guys. WIN.
Happy whatever you like, everyone.
