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!)

Thank you for reminding me. I wanted to talk about our post-show hangout in Memphis and here it is:
“Feed and Care”
Of a Pachyderm…
Just picked up my little black truck from the repair shop.
Another $2K. That makes $17k this year. $11k was just to repair the paint.
Headlights needed complete replacement, the harness had melted.
When you own an Elephant, everything is bigger.
Not just feeding the beast.
Picture: it was under 1/4 tank.
