Best Show Origins

Brad Somerstant called on Nov. 7, 2000, about his bid for Water Commissioner of Newbridge County, NJ , but I don't think there was mention of a town called Newbridge.

I listened to that Brad Somerstant call at the Best Show Vault. It was one of the funniest calls, ever. I was thinking Brad Somerstant would make a good  mayubunatorial candidate, given his previous electoral experience.

I am at the point where I am not sure if President Baseball is a real movie or not.

I think I am just going to believe that it is. My days are brighter because of it.

I listened to the Best Show 4 or 5 times before I figured out that Newbridge, NJ was not a real town. Seriously.

I've never played any of that SIM stuff, but I could seriously get into it if SIMulated Newbridge gets off the ground.

Tom's House - for the super-secret final level: Tomageddon - a suburban house with everyone who ever threatened to kill Tom coming down the street towards Tom and Dogmo in the driveway, fists up and teeth bared.

Awesome! Next door to Tom's house is the house belonging to his neighbor Keith Kinkaid.  ... Keith is Tom's annoying neighbor who's constantly badgering Tom to maintain his yard to Keith's exacting standards, and to attend the neighborhood watch meetings that Keith organizes. Oh yeah, Keith is also the High Priest of the Newbridge C.O.S. (Church of Satan) and wants Tom to attend one of his "Blood Sacrifices".

(Newbridge C.O.S. -- another possible SIM location?)

(Omar's entry about Keith Kinkaid also mentions Newbridge Colonial Days, which sounds like it also has great potential as a game element).

Holy Shit, Dave B: Second Life Newbridge.  Someone (else) must make this happen!

I concur. This is a very important job for somebody else. If you build it, I will pay for the finished product. Maybe. Within my means.
