Years ago, Dick received a postcard from a company which said Dick had been chosen by their IBM 4041 computer to be eligible for getting their wonderful sewing machine for a mere $12.87, with a chance to appear on national advertising. The AX3 was their finest choice model for all your sewing needs. Dick ordered it so he could expose the scam. Dick has a photo of the postcard on his site.Lost Amid the Pyramids

While we will all mourn over Leo, we must all look forward to having Amber MacArthur as DGW's co-host, who can convert all the remaining Mad Minutes in a matter of days, although he will miss the funny sounding name of Petaluma, about which he wrote about in Episode 435.
