Purchases you've made for which The Best Show is entirely to thank/blame

No no no no--the mental image of that big-headed dork in an erotic frenzy was never meant to occur in conjunction with a lush Modigliani nude.

You know what the worst part of it is?

It's an audiobook.

That is awesome Pidgeon.  From  Amazon:  "These 77 of mine include sonnets of praise, some erotic, some lamentations, some street sonnets and a 12-sonnet cycle of months. If anything here offends, I beg your pardon. I come in peace, I depart in gratitude.”—Garrison Keillor "

Not quite a purchase, but I went to my local library the other day. By the counter they have a spinner of Graphic Novels. I'm not particularly interested in comic books (I'm not against them, I just don't have the time/money to be interested), but something made me give it a spin. Guess what I saw. Tales Designed To Thrizzle vol 1!!!!! Kind of odd that something I would never have heard of if it were not because of The Best Show turning up in a small town library 4000 miles away. So I borrowed it.

I bought the Snake and Bacon collection and the Tales to Thrizzle collection after hearing Michael Kupperman last week and looking up some of his stuff.  I got the Steve Coogan collection for my birthday this year from my my ladyfriend (who was already a fan, so I guess the Best Show gets partial credit on this one), the Big Dipper collection. I feel like there's more, but I can't think of what they are right now.

In short, a whole lot of great music and American comedy which I never would have been exposed to ordinarily.

Oh, I forgot about the DC Snipers. Never would've heard of them if not for Tom's support back in 2007.

A crate full of 40 Eagles Fan Faces and stock in Dick's Sporting Goods.

"I Don't Care About Your Band" - by Julie Klausner.

I read the entire thing while I was stranded at the LAX airport and I didn't even notice the five hour layover.

I bought a bag of Wherther's Originals after Zack mentioned them on last weeks show.

Could this include purchases I've almost made?

I not only got the Timewaster Letters (twice, as I gave away one copy) but the Timewaster Diaries on cd.  What fun!

Funny book. Funnier still when you get to hear his voice.
