Recently, Dr. Cliff Huxtable himself visited our station. He was here to do an interview with our main anchor.
Now, I've always been a comedy nut - ever since I was a child. I told the Cos I owned "Bill Cosby: Himself" on cassette. I was very happy to meet such a legend.
Then the story takes a dark, tragic turn. Actually, it turned into a great story that I thought was pretty funny.
At the end of the interview - someone asked Mr. Pudding Pop where he gets his Philly Cheesesteaks(he's from Philly)... and the Cos couldn't remember. But he did shout out a phone #... 555-932-2252... rapid fire went this phone #.
So afterwards, trying to be funny, I say "Wow, you can remember that phone #... but you can't remember your favorite cheesesteak place." to which he replied, in his famous drawn out Cosby voice "That's my home phone number you asshole!!"
He was kinda joking... I think. Still, having a beloved entertainer call you an asshole is kinda cool.
