Welcome to the

200^th episode FingerlessGlovestravaganza!

An inside look at FG: The Man, The Legend

I’ve taken this auspicious occasion to invite back some of the classic characters from some of the more memorable of the past 50 episodes of FingerlessGloves.  They’ve been asked to share a few memories about how they came to meet FG, how their lives has gone since their appearances, or basically any behind the scene secret they wish to let you in on.  Enjoy.

Immoral Weatherman:  “It’s going to be pretty foggy out there today folks.  With this limited visibility you might have a rough time getting in to work this morning.  On the other hand, if you hit somebody, they’ll have a rough time getting your license plate number.  I say just floor it and hope for the best.”

Lottery Loser:  “They say the best things in life are free.  Well lottery winners have access to free stuff to, you know.  But they also have access to the second best things in life, which happen to be incredibly expensive.”

Bumper Sticker Enthusiast:  “In my free time I like to do a little light reading.  And by ‘free time’ I am referring the period of time between when I enter the freeway and when I exit, during which I easily get bored and have to look for something, anything to do.”

Turkey:  “Gobble, etc.”

Fancy e-mailer:  “I live my life by the old saying ‘Just because you can do something, doesn’t mean should, unless it has to do with making something pretty – in that case I say go for it, girlfriend.’”

Cartoon Watcher:  “I enjoy watching children’s cartoons.  Aren’t I incorrigible?  Look to me for your daily dose of loosey-goosey mayhem.  Some people may call me a bit of a scamp – well, guilty as charged!  I’m too much of a child at heart to take such things too seriously.”

Sleep Supervisor:  “What are you still doing up?”

Gas Station Gift Card Receiver:  “When my husband first gave me the gift card for gasoline, I was pretty angry at him.  But then I used that card, along with my gift card to the effigy supply shop, to work out some issues.  It always surprises me – burning the likeness of somebody really brings out your true feelings for them.”

Snow Advisor:  “Some people have made the claim that it is irresponsible to release a national bulletin that gives no more information than looking out a window.  Well these are obviously unaware of how important I am and, therefore, how important any bulletin I release must also be.”

Tall Guy:  “It’s funny when people ask me ‘What’s the weather like up there?’.  This is because it points out one of my obvious physical differences – or, as differences are more commonly referred to in society, ‘deficiencies’.”

‘Ovenable’ Creator:  “After I created the ‘ovenable’ box, I became an instant celebrity in the frozen-food-product-box-designer world.  Everyone was waiting for what I would come up with next to re-revolutionize the industry.  But the best I could come up with was ‘spatulate’ and ‘frying-pantastic’, so they all left me.  Such is the fickle world of box designing.”

FG:  “How did all these people find my new site?”
