I believe that less than a year ago I saw one of the "Good Luck" pictures 
of departing employees they occasionaly show before and after the final 
commercial break (only on Friday nights?) and it was a picture of Flunky 
reading "Good Luck <name>", though I don't remember the name now. 
So assuming Mulligan is still there, Flunky was probably played by some 
now-departed writer. 

You guys failed to mention MY favorite part of the Flunky segments, 
which of course came at the end of each of his interviews: 
    Dave:   "OK, good to see you Flunky, etc., 
	     Have a good weekend." 
    Flunky: "Yeah, right." 

More classic Dave.

good about him in the wonderful portrait.  One question, how many lifetimes did

last night's top ten was somthing like "Top Ten Reasons Sinead
O'Connor Dislikes the Pope".  all was well and good until they reached
number eight.  it was very obviously and poorly overdubbed to read 
"8. He snubbed her at the Grammy Awards."

did anyone else notice this?  if it was censoring i wish they would've
just bleeped it audibly and whited-out the list.  

i guess we'll never know what was too offensive for a top ten.  unless
one of you fine people was in the studio audience.  if so here's your
shot at fame.  you'll rank right up there with "Mr. My Dad's a
Comedian" on the old a.f.l. instant popularity scale.

With regards to flunkie the clown, I seem to recall that during one show a few 
years ago, Dave bid farewell to the staff member who plyed flunkie - I don't
believe it was G. Mulligan though...

Also, one of the funniest Chris Elliot characters I can remember was
Chris Elliot as "Venus, the Goddess of Love", a take off on some
lame ads for a Vanna White TV movie of the time (which was unbearable!).
Chris posed in these Sexy Poses, sprawled out on a bed, with his gut
hanging out and often a cigarette in his mouth - it was pretty
sick! :)

Hmm...I remember when Edie Brickell was playing and he went on and on about
her. "I'd give a week's paycheck just to deliver her paper" and then 
declaring that his one true ambition in life was to introduce Edie to his
mom.   "They're not Bohemians. They're ROTARIANS!!!!"

It was quite funny.

And now my request: does anyone have a lot of Teri Garr interviews on tape?

I have 4 or so (I missed "Teri Garr Week"  :(

I'd love to trade - got lots of stuff including both of Diane Keaton's
appearances (which were two of the funniest interviews I have ever seen).

I also have lots of non-letterman video rarities. 

Diane Keaton was only on twice right??  She was great!

Naw, the cartoon that reminds me of Dave isn't Bugs Bunny, its Calvin

and he is just revealing Dave's childhood in cartoon form.   ;^)

Are you sure?  I thought it was:  

"Dave's rocks and minerals, Dave's minerals and rocks.
 He's got a whole lot of them.  He keeps them in a box.
 
And then it goes something like:

"He's got malachite; <something else>; <something else> too."
"Dave's rocks and minerals. <something else blah blah blah>"

Old favorite pet tricks:

 -- The dog that aggressively attacked the vacuum cleaner
 -- The dog that got into progressively smaller boxes
 -- The dog that would howl when the NBC Nightly News theme came on
 -- The parrot that defecated on command (anyone remember the command?)
 -- The pit bull that bowled ("Hammer")

Option A:  Send a postcard to the Letterman show during the month of
           August and you will be sent two complimentary tickets two
           years later. (This option is out for you)

Option B:  Go to to G.E. Building (formerly the RCA Building) in
           Rockefeller Center _very_ early in the morning and wait on
           line to be a standby audience member.  If there are enough
           seats (i.e. not all the ticket holders show up), you will get
           in.  Take a book; taping starts at 5:00 P.M.

	hey, how about the dog named "Boy" that walked around with a
paper bag on his head?  =^)  Dave declared that one to be the winner
despite "Stupid Pet Tricks" not being a competition (no wagering!)

I had the episode taped and noticed some other words flash up when #'s 5
thru 10 flashed off the screen, so I rewound it and watched it frame by
frame.  No. 8 originally said:

8.  His holier than thou attitude.

I don't particularly see what's so offensive about this, but that is
what it said.  Could this be Dave's way of still getting it on the air,
leaving one frame in that somebody would eventually see?  If so, way to
go Dave.

This time, he gave no explanation of the kick, but he did weird Dave out so badly while wav-ing his fists around that he's never come back for another visit.  Who knows,

     I saw both of the Glover interviews and I was wondering why you thought he
was on acid.  He was surely extremely wierd but how can you be for sure that he
was on drugs?
