I’ll bet the worst ending ever is ‘Rich Girl’ by Hall & Oates.
Don’t spoil it for me, I don’t have time to listen today!
Great podcast.
I’m thinking about the Harrah’s deal… You guys were saying you didn’t think that they would move forward on the development if the deal goes through but perhaps that’s the best reason to do the deal… Killing these properties for re-development means a cash-flow hit and Wall Street doesn’t like that idea very much but of course a private firm doesn’t have these problems.. I think I saw someone alluding to this somewhere and it makes some sense to me.
Still, the idea that doing both means VERY deep pockets is absolutely true. It’s interesting stuff no doubt.
Now, I wonder if Kerkorian would consider taking MGM Mirage private? Since he’s openly talking about dumping his stake in GM he’ll have some additional cash on hand. Interesting concept.
For years I thought “Hall & Oates” was really “haulin’ Oats” not a big fan you see…
Just started listening and I’m still back on the implosion of Boardwalk Casino, the worst thing about losing the Boardwalk is that the Prince impersonator now plays in different places every night and he’s quite hard to find for us “out of towners”.
“Hall & Oates” will some day be greater than the Beatles, when they get a Circus show… yeah, some day… and I didn’t like zoo man it titty.
Don’t knock Nils, lest you answer to me.
And I always felt bad for Tommy Shaw. All he wanted to do was play rock guitar, do tons of blow, and screw every groupie he could find. But he had to put up with Dennis DeYoung and his stupid pretensions.
Rita Rudner also went from NY-NY to Harrah’s. Didn’t that just start?
I will not utter a bad word about Nils, I assure you.
Rudner’s show opened last week.
“Worst Show Ending Ever?” I have not listened to it yet, but thats saying something for this show.
My money is on something about shoes.
Nils is a rock-god.
Lame ending. It reminded me of the way Monty Python ended the Holy Grail movie.
A few suggestions:
-’Cherio’ (I’m sure Lou from England will help with spelling
-’Have a hundirific week!’
-a 4 minute montage of people saying goodbye in different languages
-“Help control the pet population, have your pet spayed or neutered.”
-’If you liked this broadcast, we hope you’ll watch it again tomorrow night and maybe tell your neighbors about it.’- Dan Rather(don’t worry he’s not using it anymore)
-”I think you’re all fucked in the head. We’re ten hours from the fucking fun park and you want to bail out. Well I’ll tell you something. This is no longer a vacation. It’s a quest. It’s a quest for fun. I’m gonna have fun and you’re gonna have fun. We’re all gonna have so much fucking fun we’ll need plastic surgeory to remove our godamn smiles. You’ll be whistling ‘Zip-A-Dee Doo-Dah’ out of you’re assholes! I gotta be crazy! I’m on a pilgrimage to see a moose. Praise Marty Moose! Holy Shit!”
-I’m spent.
i HATE toby keith
“tim dressen — reminding you that life is a gamble”
“hope you’re up five hundy, cause it’s always midnight somewhere”
you know, i have a feeling that you’re not even CLOSE to the worst show ending ever
Sorry but I’m not sure of the correct spelling of Cheerio, but it is pronounced Cheerie Ho in some parts of England
Now that would be a great finish to the next edition of Hooker Hunt - a Cheerie Ho saying Cheerio
“This is Tim Dressen saying ‘May all your points be made, and all your hookers disease-free.’”
“As Han Solo said, ‘Never tell me the odds.’”
“Thank God the dog didn’t fart during this one.”
My vote goes for
“Thank God the dog didn’t fart during this one.”
or maybe
“What Happens in Vegas ends up on Five Hundy By Midnight, so Behave!”
Hey Michele, Playboy Club just opened atop the new Palms Fantasy Tower.

Might want to add that stop to your next visit to Sin City. Just think of all the shoes you and Tim can see there.
Just a short walk across I-15 from the Barbary Coast.
Sign off suggestion:
“I’m Tim Dressen, and you’re not!”
“I’m Tim Dressen and I approve this message”
“Nacho Cheese Wishes and Daquiri Dreams”
This week’s show ending was, without a doubt, the worst show ending ever. Rest assured that I was on the Internet within minutes, registering my disgust throughout the world.

Whoo Hoo! Marilyn slots! Thanks so much!
