I think things are good the way they are.  I like a two syllable dump.

I'm rooting for the return of "You're a ghost!"

I think a mix would be nice.

I was one of the first people heaved ho, so I kinda have an affinity for it.

What the hell? You can't petition the kid. The kid does what he wants, and YOU LOVE IT.

But can you petition the lord with prayer?

Correct. HEAVE HO with the traditionalists ... change is good.

But one thing that kind of tickles me ... if you listen to the show over the over the last month or so, there's been a couple times when Tom starts on a GOMP, and then catches himself. So it sounds something like "Get off m ... heave ho!"

Seriously though, how about a committee/petition to bring back the Rockford Files theme as the bed music?

Why do we need to petition anything?  Change is good.  If you miss GOMP or whatever, the archive is full of them.  I like that the show moves forward, almost always for the better, and doesn't get stale by using the same tried and true stuff all the time.  I don't want to second guess Tom's plans or whatnot for his show.

"You're a ghost" is too much of a gem to be used for every dumped call.  The satisfaction of hearing the rarely used "You're a ghost!" is equal to sitting around watching VH1 and seeing the video for "Cry" by Godley and Creme.
