The Speedway archives for May 17, 1993: “a light day of track activity saw John Andretti shaking down a car for Willy T. Ribbs at Walker Motorsports. Andretti hit 220.157 mph in the car, the fastest non-qualified car of the afternoon.” All I remember is that *some*body’s water broke, and we exited, as quickly as […]
Happy New Year!
This Weekend On Pet Pals TV: This Year’s Iditarod Winner
That’s me talking to Dallas Seavy a week and a half ago. This kid just crossed the Iditarod finish line in one of the closest finishes ever. Either he or his Dad have won the last three races. See my conversation with the winner, and plenty more of the sights and sounds of Alaska during […]
Happy Birthday Graham Poteet
Special Deals For Vets Sunday/Monday
I usually take the opportunity of Father’s Day and Veteran’s Day to pop up a picture of my Dad. Any excuse to see him again. He’s my favorite vet; I’m sure you have your own. I asked online the other day about places honoring vets with special deals and meals and here’s a compilation of […]
This Kid REALLY Loves Root Beer
As both a Dad and a root beer lover, I loved this video of little Noah. He’s a toddler taking his first sip of root beer and REALLY REALLY loving it. It’s the same reaction I have every morning with first cuppa Joe. Luckily, no one is around with a video camera. Noah’s father, under […]
THE PAUL & TOM SHOW #214
Paul & Tom have tinkled together many times, but never on the show, at least until THIS episode. There is a chilling discussion of the proper way to have a glass of water with ice, and the boys also consider who will be the next Dick Clark. RANDOM QUOTES: “We did have some humdingers.” “So […]
Happy Father’s Day!
(Originally posted June 21, 2009) My Dad, Charles Poteet, is the Greatest Dad In The World. I’m in second place, and I have two future candidates for third place that I’m pretty fond of. One of them let me pass the time recently on a road trip by making him perform.
Happy Post-Mother’s Day
I’m late to the post-a-pic-of-your-Mom party on Facebook. I don’t have any digitized shots of me and Mom handy. (Guess I should attack those old photo albums someday.) I did find this one of my parents. For the vast majority of my followers I should explain that the thing on the left is a “hi-fi” […]
THE PAUL & TOM SHOW #96
Tom may sound a little funny, but only because he has numb tongue. Sibilance! He’s trying to self-medicate his mouth. He’s actually searched for information on unclogging his own saliva glands. At least he’s not wearing Adult Diapers, not that there’s anything wrong with it. Not to Paul: he defends Depends. The show closes with […]
THE PAUL & TOM SHOW #42
If Kendra Wilkinson is famous, why aren’t Paul & Tom? Even Tom’s Dad is surprised the boys are still working together. But not all is lost–Paul had a completely satisfying Career Week, and Tom has some Breaking Baby News. Is it a boy or a girl? We also learn Tom the 2nd is sensitive about […]
PAUL & TOM SHOW PODCAST: Fri Oct 1, 2010
Paul believes once you’ve Skimmed you can’t go back. He’s not lactose intolerant (some of his best friends are lactose) but he has experimented with Almond Milk, man. Today we learn Paul’s Kryptonite, and Tom demonstrates the audio difference between a Harley and a Kawasaki. But does he know the difference between his Dad and […]
