Title: ...I'll live with it. You'll die without it.
Post by: captain carrigan on March 26, 2008, 08:48:01 AM: I love the quote that appears in the opening theme, but have no idea of the context. It sounds like Mike Sajak. Can anyone tell me what show it's for, or what he's talking about?

Thanks.

Post by: masterofsparks on March 26, 2008, 09:14:43 AM: It is indeed Mike Sajak. I can't remember which show it's from, but he only called twice (actually, I think he may've called a third time during a marathon as well). I think he repeated the quote on all of the calls. It was even commemorated on a FOT sticker.

Post by: buffcoat on March 26, 2008, 10:16:17 AM: Mike Sajak calls four times. The "Sajak Credo" I believe is during the first call.

• March 22, 2005: Mike Sajak 4 [Meltdown] (2:33)
• March 15, 2005: Mike Sajak 3 (2:33) No Archive [Yo La Tengo]
• March 8, 2005: Mike Sajak 2 (1:15)
• March 1, 2005: Mike Sajak [Pat's Brother] (2:03)

I like the Meltdown one the best. Mike also calls to curse out (and I mean really curse out) his paperboy's father on one of the Best Show premium CDs.

Yeah, it's weird hearing JW actually swear. Especially swear that much.

What special CD is the paperboy call from? 2005?

It was even commemorated on a FOT sticker.

Can someone tell me what else is going on in that sticker? Specifically, what is that kid holding, and why? It's been awhile since I've heard the Sajak calls, so it could be something from them that I'm missing, but I haven't been able to figure it out.

Post by: gravy boat on March 28, 2008, 12:04:07 PM: I have the sticker and it looks like a weed whacker. I haven't heard the calls yet so I don't know of the connection.

Post by: Steve in North Hollywood on March 29, 2008, 08:06:29 AM: Is there any relevance to the child holding a weed-wacker on the "I'll say it. You'll hear it ..." sticker that goes out to all the FOT's? I haven't heard any Mike Sajak calls yet.

Post by: Sarah on March 29, 2008, 08:35:43 AM: Come on now, BigSteve. Jouster thoughtfully provided the means to download a Mike Sajak Funpack just a few posts ago. You have aspirations to ROY? Do your homework.

Post by: mostlymeat on April 01, 2008, 03:44:54 PM: FYI don't burn a CD of the Sajak fun-pak and then mail it to your son without exising "Mike Sajak calls his paperboy" first.

Oops! I thought this was a family show?
