Halloween Special?
Dave G from Detroit writes in and says Oct 13th falls on a Friday and suggests a Halloween special. Dick says, we don't have time. Leo jokes, we can make this clever and interesting, but we don't have time; we can actually have some content, but we don't have time; this could be a good show, but we don't have time. More importantly, Dave thanks Dick and Leo for the "netcast".
