Welcome back stranger. You musta been WAY out in the boonies. There
was a parting of the ways between Steve and The Pain That Must Be. For
the particulars, DAGS.

It wasn't even a TOH episode; it was an Ask TOH segment. He's pleasant
enough, and he's not Bob Vila; that's two good reasons to cut him some
slack right there. He doesn't have any credibility with the
tradespeople yet or the other cohosts, but he'll probably do okay. As
long as he's not Bob Vila, I don't think anyone has to worry.

Zowie! T'anks for the correction. Morash taps this guy for the lead after a
45 minute visit from Tommy, Richard or Roger??? That's some cojones.

Steve's gone. Theories range from: left mad 'cuz he wanted more money; left
happy 'cuz he wanted to do other things.

The New Guy's some 'schmoe (izz'that Yiddish for something? If so -
something benign, I hope) that was a homeowner on a TOH episode. Morash
liked him, thought he had a good rapport, and tagged him to be the host.
Haven't seen him myself, but reports are he's off to a rough start -- as was
Steve, Tommy, etc.

Dunno if it's Yiddish, but it's Al Capp in his Dogpatch cartoons---Daisy Mae
and Li'l Abner for those old enough to recall.
