I'm back! Either Phil and Denny were too busy eating for the past week and never read Volume 1, Issue 1 of the NTD blog; or their dislike wasn't quite strong enough to prompt an immediate cease and desist order. Either way, with all that in mind, here goes...
I have been hearing rumblings lately from the tubby twosome that somewhere there is someone who is thinking of putting them on the radio for a regular gig. My first thought in that regard is that they certainly have faces suited for it. My second thought is that, while I don't have an over abundance of experience on the airwaves, I believe it originates from someplace called a "booth". This might present a problem. When I think of a booth, I think of either Steak n' Shake or a phone booth (when was the last time anybody saw a phone booth?), neither of which is conducive to hosting 550 pounds of jovial jubilation. Oh, well.
In just a little over three months, twofatguyswithnothingtodo.com has been checked out by close to 35,000 pairs of eyes.(assuming there are no Cyclops who count themselves among our faithful) That's pretty darn good, but apparently not good enough. Every Saturday afternoon, Phil & Denny order a six-foot sub and then sit down to have a web site business meeting. The sandwich usually lasts longer than the meeting, but I have overheard them say (I don't get invited to the meetings) that they wish the message board would become a bit more active. If you are a regular visitor, a first timer, or like most people just got here by mistake, jump in and say "hi". Let 'em know you care.
Did you know that the word "fat" is actually one of the most versatile words in our language? It can be used as a noun, verb, adverb, and adjective...there are only 16 such words in the English tongue. I myself could only think of two others -- "snow" and "poop". Fat has also been adapted as an idiom (fat chance or chew the fat, etc.). It's even been modified as a current slang term for something great or impressive, as in "That fat guy is really phat!"
Before I close and go back to what I do best, nothing, let's go back to the message board for a minute. Supposing Phil and Denny really do get their radio show, what would be a good name for the show? (Please, not twofatguyswithnothingtodo! That's too easy.) Submit your idea to the message board and at the very least get your name mentioned here next week. I can't promise that they'll really call it that (the last time they followed one of my suggestions it involved an ex-cheerleader, a swiss army knife, and a potato), but you never know...

PHAT FAT FACT: Phil's favorite movie is The Untouchables. Robert
DeNiro purposely gained 45 pounds in order to look more like Al Capone in
his portrayal.
PHATTER FAT FACT: Every time he puts on another 45 pounds, Phil celebrates by watching
it again. Since 2006, he's seen it five times.
Till next time....
