Well, here we are again. I like old Bob Newhart comedy- the one-sided phone calls.

Yep, does sound like the place wants the business though.
Betting on a monsoon and more. Still waiting for when Lowell comes through with his beary bigfoot imitation with his friends the raccoon tribe…
Side B: Thank you for calling. Can we hep you?
B: That’s a lot. When are you planning this event?
B: Sure, three weeks is no problem. We can give you a choice from three levels – low-, mid- and high-end.
B: Bankers? Will this be held in a shark tank? Will we need tongs?
B: An outdoor shark tank? Will we need bigger tongs?
B: Any chance of cancellation due to weather?
B: Anything else?
B: Open air bar, no problem.
B: The quote? Well, we need a bit more detail…
B: Free if we can get the rights to
Incredamous? Increda mouse? Is cat on the menu?
20 years later “I wonder what the exact moment I got into concert promoting was?? Should I have just shot myself THEN??
3 weeks? Plenty of time to get more paint balls. A million paint balls seems like overkill though, I bet a hundred thousand would be more than enough.
Lowell will probably be in the mental ward of the nearest hospital by that time. Or not. I don’t know, I’m not Greg and he might not even know at this point in time.
That makes on average 5,714 paintballs per person? About a day’s worth of fun.
Shall I date myself and ask Which Bob Newhart show you’re referring to? The one with the blonde wife or the one with the brunette? 😉
I thought Carol the receptionist was blonde and Emily the wife was brunette (Suzanne Pleschette)?
No, I’ll date MYself, and admit that his phone call routines pre-date all of his TV shows. “The Button Down Mind of Bob Newhart” was his comedy album. Album as in vinyl… because that was all there was if you didn’t have some kind of professional reel-to-reel system of sound reproduction.
Viva La Reel-to-Reel, my better half has one that still works I think. We have boxes and boxes of reels, and I can get rid of those when I can get rid of the slide projector and slides; and that will be a long time yet.
Nice to know I’m not the only one that remembers ‘comedy albums’ and yes vinyl was ‘the thing’. Versus the old 78 rpm shellac wonders….
Love those Newhart phone calls! “Hi Walt! How are you, guy? You got another ‘winner’ for us?” (Sir Walter Raleigh calling the East India Company)
a pity for they were willing to give hubris a discount for the video rights which proably means paste has them
Kelly has the video rights (for Dusty Trayles’ TV show) in exchange for producing souvenir DVDs for the participants.
Three weeks? Lowell might be dead or found by then.
Seems Greg has some knowledge of how these conversations go.
OR … he just talks to himself … ALOT. LoL
No one going to ask who the poster is of in the last panel?
Hmm… nope. Are you?
I can guess.
