Had a dream last night that I stumbled across Fredericks' apartment. It was in Los Angeles. There was a hand-drawn comic on the mailbox that was obviously drawn by FONPR. I went up to the apartment and rang the bell. One of his roommates answered (he lived with two sketchy dudes) and I sort of burst into the apartment and said "I gotcha Fredericks!" And he was all "Yea, you got me. I live in Los Angeles." Turned out he also had a hot daughter in her twenties. What?

Yea, you got me, Hugger!

Mortifying, low-self-confidence dream. 

I dreamed I had a habit of hanging out in the WFMU hallways during the Best Show (no idea why they let me in to do this).  Tom tolerated it, but it was clear he thought I was the saddest loser on Earth.  Then once, I overstepped the boundary...during the opening 20 minutes of music, Tom and Jon were talking about a song they both liked.  I walked into the on-air studio and chimed in that I liked it too.  Obviously done with my presence, Tom turned and yelled "SHUT UP."  I skulked home on foot.

Definitely not "Inception."

Wow. I must be feeling great about myself this week.  Most people dream that their hair and teeth are falling out when they are feeling down on themselves. I dream of disapproval from my comic heroes.  This is tantamount to a Best-Show themed wedding or tattoo.  Perhaps I need to take a break from the show?

Don't take a break.

Get the tattoo.

Dreamed I was listening to the show when my alarm rang.  Tom was upset with Mike for doing a fill-in the week before and briefly renaming the show "A Mantle on the Hill"  (mantle, not mansion).

Obviously my subconsious still hasn't adjusted to Steve.

EDIT: Maybe it was "Handle," not "Mantle."  Hopefully a handle is sometimes just a handle.

I dreamt that Tom was pitching a TV version of the Best Show to Lorne Michaels.  I was told about this by a friend who was at the pitch meeting.  He said that every time Tom described an incident from the radio show that would have adapted well to TV, he emphasized that "Mike liked it"--like that was really going to impress Lorne Michaels.

I dreamt that I was in New Jersey and I walked into a used bookstore/record shop that Mr. Scharpling was working at.  I wanted to come up to him and say "I really love The Best Show" but he just told a guy to "get out of his store!" and I was intimidated.

Basically, what happens to most people when they call-in to The Best Show.

Dreamt I was in the subway and Paul F. Tompkins and quite possibly Ted Leo was there, too. But when I saw PFT, I started waving really hard and saying, "Hi!!!" like a 5 year old. He had a pretty awesome mustache going on.

I had a dream last night that I went to a Mike Show Gathering.

It was in a parking lot like a tailgate party. as far as I could tell the only attractions were a guy cooking something on a little grill and a craps table. also Mike was giving away Mike show fan "gift bags" the one I got was a zip lock bag containing a pack of Virginia Slims and a block of home made cheese. there was also a note saying "be careful cheese may have dead bees in it."

I remember seeing a guy who looked alot like Snake Plisskin walking around.
I was the first guy in hardcore to whip people with his belt.

I fell asleep during the Paul Scheer and Jason Woliner broadcast (not because I was bored) and had a vivid dream about Tom and Paul discussing Piranah 3D DVD and its bonus features, including Paul's death. I haven't relistened to the episode and don't know if this actually happened.
