First place
"I'm sorry. I ran out of 'funny stories from the set' days ago, and yet, I remain trapped in this talk-show set/dungeon, as you stare at me with that creepy intensity, and I hope you'll understand that I'm beginning to wonder whether I'll ever see my family agai-- oh, we have to go to commercial? No, that's fine. I'll finish the story when we get back." � Tim C.

Second place
"Isn't Craigslist great!!?? I would never have found out about your terrific show!!! What channel is it on again? And why are there bars on the windows?" � Richard H
