Slightly off-topic.

I could be waaay off base, but just finished a StarWars/Empire Strikes Back marathon with my little nephews. Hadn't watched them in years. I was amazed at the similarities in tone between a young, bratty Skywalker (all that backtalk to Yoda! shocking!) and the indignant tones of some of the calls from various Newbridge residents. It was uncanny! The 'nooooooo' after (SPOILER) Vader tells Luke he's his father sounds identical to lazer whip death!

Cutting off a line of questioning, or changing the topic, with a dismissive "Hey, ..."

One that made me laugh for days afterwards - "you sound bald".
Remember how he couldn't stop his leg?

referencing bygone places in Newbridge:

"you know, down by the _____ before it ______."

one was something like "you know, down by the Newbridge Cod Fishery before it evaporated?"

Listening to the latest Gem reminded me of a new one:

Musically inclined Newbridgians who sing the praises of, or admit to only using, drum machines and/or Simmons Pads.

On a similar note, I'm glad that JW recognizes the inherent comedic potential of Steinberger basses and guitars.

Thought of Mr. Wurster at the hardware store the other day for some reason...

"What is this? An inquisition???"

I get a kick out of him calling in and talking to someone while he's spying on them (EXAMPLE: December 14, 1010 - Aimee Mann calls in. 80s Rick calls in to talk to her. During the conversation he mentions how lovely she looks and when she says that she doesn't know how he would know how she looks he tells her to look out thewindow.)
