Sesame Street: Mike Rowe's Dirtiest Jobs
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

I love Mike Rowe. He's hot looking and has a GREAT voice. I could listen to him read the phone book. As my granny used to say, "He can park his shoes under my bed any night." :D:

Re: Sesame Street: Mike Rowe's Dirtiest Jobs
Well, I certainly wouldn't go that far, but I do like the guy. And guess what -- Rowe is a barbershopper, or at least used to be. And he gives a lot of credit to the late Freddie King, his high school music teacher and director of the Chorus of the Chesapeake, for the trajectory of his career:GaTechGal wrote:I love Mike Rowe.

[INDENT]When strangers would ask me how I wound up with my name in the title of a hit show, I would never tell them the whole truth. That level of disclosure would require a mention of SPEBSQSA, and I’ve learned that long and unpronounceable acronyms make people anxious. -- Mike Rowe[/INDENT]
The full story is here: Mike Rowe Interview, and it's a very entertaining read.
