Oh sure! Tease us with the promise of a visual of Tricia "raising the roof" and then fail to deliver... What a letdown!

During this bit, Pesca started a sentence like: "I wonder if when we say 'the Interwebs', listeners really think...". His end of the sentence was "...we don't know that it's called the Internet."

This is very odd, since I was totally expecting something like: "...we are the biggest dweebs in the world."

I don't know how many people think you don't know that it's called the Internet, but I'm pretty sure there are a lot of us who think you're a bunch of dweebs when you say "the Intertubes", "the Internets", and "the Interwebs".
