Just saw this quote in an old interview I did from 2006. Note the Trump reference- it’s hard to remember when Trump was “just” a reality-TV host. And before that, a well-known rich guy.
(I’ll post the article below if you find it interesting)
This part was referring to an internet-based “cat reality show” I had hosted around that time-
Int: Was there a particular pun on the show you enjoyed most?
Tom “My weekly catchphrase "You are Meowta here!" Not that it's not a stupid thing to have to say every episode, but I always wanted my own TV catchphrase, like Fonzy or Freddie Prince. Or Trump.”
What a trio huh? Fonzy (Aaaaaayyyy!) Freddie Prinze (Looking Good!) and Trump, (You’re Fired)
Here’s the rest of this (remember, it’s from 17 years ago!)

“Time for a ride!”
Sunday, my lovely bride and I will be riding the scoot to Emigrant MT.
For those of you whom are fans of the modern western ‘Yellowstone’, Emigrant is the local ‘town’ to the ficticious ‘Dutton Ranch’.
‘Emigrant’ only consists of a Saloon and post office.
Our good friends ‘Philaberto’ and Sandy are there and we are going for a short visit. They are the reason we went to Emigrant the first time.
Pictures: visiting the Emigrant Saloon with Colonel Philaberto and his lovely wife Sandy.
Our route.
“Chili”
This was ‘Chili’ the red Husky.
He belonged to Uno.
He was only 6.
For some unknown reason, he became a fear biter.
If he thought you were going to grab his collar, especially if he was in his ‘crate’ he would snap or bite.
Otherwise he was a wonderful dog.
For some reason, I was one f his favorite humans. He would lose his mind whenever I visited.
He ‘bit’ his third person…
So he had to be put down.
I will miss him terribly.
