I can't resist it.  I gotta take El Cheapo!
Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

Hmmm......do you reckon El Cheapo may solve all of our problems?  Could it very well be that El Cheapo is hiding the back of the GEM car?  Find out tomorrow as.....

Audience:  BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Don't boo the host!

Anyway, is it El.......wouldn't this be exciting if it was the back of the GEM car Fireball?

Fireball:  YES!

It is........



([color=339900]DINGS[/color]) [TPIR theme] ...THE BACK OF THE GEM!

$8605 and El Cheapo gives us our 2nd winner!  Congrats Fireball!

[holds up a sec and listens for any clangs]

Aww shucks, we don't have 3 in a row.  Anyway, the actual retail price is.......

$1373!  Sideshow, c'mon up here!

[Sideshow and I go to the turntable yet again]

Ya know something Sideshow....

Sideshow:  What's that?

You may need that shed to hold all of your winnings after you take this.....



Rich:  A trip to Las Vegas!

Go all in as you and a friend enjoy your 7 night stay at the Mirage Resort & Casino!  Comes with a one bedroom tower suite!  



Sideshow, we're gonna play Flip Flop!



The price is NOT $4237.  You can flip and it becomes $2437.  You can flop for $4273.  OOOORRRRR you can flip flop and make it $2473.

You can also hit the button, but if you do that, I'll be forced to feed you to a Manhandla Hive!

Are you a flippin'?  Are you a floppin'?  Or are you a flip floppin'?  Get over there and choose your poison Sideshow!

I heart Vegas!

I just came back last month, and I wanna stay at the Mirage.  But this is tricky, cause Vegas can be cheap IF I am flying from L.A.  But, the Mirage is a pretty pricey place to stay.  I'm gonna just Flop...make it $4273.

[Sideshow flops]



Ok, so you think the price is $4273.  If that's right, you're going back to Vegas.

It is....

[smacks button, nothing happens]

It is....

[smacks button again, nothing happens]

[gives a Chuck Norris kick to button, this time it drops to reveal]



([color=006600]DINGS[/color]) ....$4273!  Have fun in Vegas, but don't go now.....

[goes in front of turntable] ....because our 1st Showcase Showdown is coming up next!  Please please PLEASE don't go away!

Ok, we're back with our Big Wheel!  You guys should know how to play this game.  Get a buck, win a grand.  Get it again, win ten grand, get the green in your bonus spin, win another 5 Gs.  'Nuff said, Sideshow, spin that wheel!

[Give me a # 1-20, you can give me more than 1 #, but unless you specifically state a scenario where you wanna spin again no matter what, I'll ask you if you want to use your 2nd spin #]
