All I can remember is being screened by Bo Snerdley, being on hold for half the show, and trying to think of a clever “dittos” to Rush.

I can imagine :)

I'd forgotten about the "dittos". Sometimes the caller would overdo the dittos, and the response would be dead air.

Rush: "What was your question?"

Ouch, lol

I remember being home from work one day with a cold, and I was listening to the Rush Limbaugh Show and posting my thoughts on the daily Rush Limbaugh Show thread, when somebody posted to me "I think Rush is talking to you right now."

Honestly, I thought so, too, because Rush made a big admission of failure and I had called him out on it. After a while, though, I started getting attacked by some with legitimately arguable differences of opinion, and by others with the "who are you to tell Rush..." personal attacks.

Anyway, that thread from "The Rush Limbaugh LIVE Radio Show Thread - Wednesday, May 25, 2011" and had me going in many different directions (even including a reference to Donald Trump!). I just reread it now, and much of what I wrote is still going on today; and much of the rebuttals against me have failed to pan out as predicted by the naysayers.

Anyway, for anyone who is interested in a random trip down Rush's Memory Lane, here is a link to my first comment on that thread, which occurs at about 27 minutes into the show. It's probably the first content comment from the show, as the posts before it were the usual pre-show chit-chat.

If anyone is really interested in rereading that show's commentary, I suggest starting with my post and just scrolling from there (don't follow thread replies).
