littledonny: Mike, have you ever stayed friends with any of the guests of your show? A lot of them seem really fun to hang out with.
Mike Rowe: Several of the people profiled on "Dirty Jobs" correspond regularly on the "Dirty Jobs" message board. Many have written to me privately after leaving. Some have sent me presents. One man who I shall not name was kind enough to send me some Tupperware with some poo in it through the U.S. Mail. It was a lovely holiday gesture that I will cherish always.
Pam: One of your answers to a question on the message board included a tidbit that you became an Eagle Scout (congrats by the way, 25 years later!). I'm curious to know what you did for your community service project? Thanks, Mike.
Mike Rowe: I read and volunteered at the Maryland School for the Blind. It was, ironically, the first time I had read anything out loud and one of the reasons I became interested in narrating.
amber: I just wanted to wish you an early "Happy Birthday!" Any special plans? Are you big on celebrating birthdays or are you more of the type that just lets it pass by quietly? Thanks for all your hard work! Amber
Mike Rowe: I've never fully understood the celebration of an event that I had absolutely nothing to do with. I'm grateful for every birthday I've ever had and look forward to many more. But, in my opinion, the best way to celebrate the anniversary of your birth is to send a thank-you note and some flowers, or perhaps a small container of Tupperware with some poo in it, to those directly responsible.
montypythonlover: As a Monty Python lover, who's your favorite Python and what was your favorite Python movie? Because, as I well know, you've seen something from them, from all the quotes you've spurt out on the boards.
Mike Rowe: John Cleese. "The Life of Brian" is probably my favorite collection of MP scenes. "The Holy Grail" is probably my favorite MP movie. But, really, if I'm flicking around and I see any of them I watch until it's over.
