“Simon & Garfunkel, Better Than A Dime Bag” – GDub
Well it was neither a Wednesday nor 3 am, but it was pretty damn early when the head of the Midwest Edition phoned the head of the West Coast Edition of Yeah, I Figured That Much. The groggy WC head, taking full advantage of his “sleeping in” honors paying respect to another President’s Day, recalls a conversation not unlike this:
“I’m on my second run of S&G albums.” GDub
“Nice, aren’t you glad you bought that box set?” JDot
“Yeah, it’s better than a dime bag.” GDub
(silence) JDot
A typical exchange of pleasantries between the makers, creators, editors, writers, columnists, reports, and yes, idiots that make up Yeah, I Figured. Simon & Garfunkel are indeed better than a dime bag, and we’ve got the figures to prove it.

Ahhh...memories :)
As much as I'd like to take credit for the analogic wit of this great line, i believe the jerries, not the jingles, originally spoke it.
JINGLES JERRIES JINGLES JERRIES!
(Man, I'll never forget that day we skipped Intro to Computer Use to play darts at my apt. and geek out over the Luke Skywalker binoculars. That might have been the same day we spent a session at the library "lifting" Star Wars related articles of literature.)
