Originally posted by mikerowe: It has been brought to my attention that the production photos that I have personally autographed for nearly 10,000 fans of Dirty Jobs are disappointing in two key areas.
1. They aren't BIG enough. 2. They aren't DIRTY enough.
In an effort to rectify this oversight, and celebrate more new episodes, The Network has allocated several dozen dollars to upgrade my publicity shot. The new photo addresses both concerns quite nicely. It is of the standard 8x10 variety, and features me, covered in charcoal dust, holding my filthy hands toward the camera, and screaming in abject horror. The expression captures what I believe to be the true measure of pain and regret that have become hallmarks of my large and filthy face. You can obtain your very own signed copy - should you desire such a thing - by sending a request to the production company. The request should read:
PHOTO REQUEST Pilgrim Films and Television 6180 Laurel Canyon Blvd. #350 North Hollywood, CA 91606
Be sure to include a self-addressed stamped envelope with sufficient postage. (You’d be amazed how many forget.) Please make sure the return envelope is large enough to hold an 8”x10” photo. Please address the envelope exactly as written above. Please do not include anything else with a photo request. This includes lengthy letters, crocheted mittens, suggestions for dirty jobs, love notes for Barsky, boudoir imagery for me, or baked goods of any type. The aforementioned are all welcomed and appreciated, but must not be included with a PHOTO REQUEST. It only confuses things, and makes Barsky anxious.
Please allow 4-6 years for delivery. If you would like the photo personalized, please allow much, much longer.
Seriously, Mike
PS Ivy – Please also remove the sticky that says I’m unplugging for a bit. I'm not.
Thanks
Mike

How are we supposed to know when Mike decides to post an answer to a thread, with so many threads and thread postings?
This is from my newbie thread:
For those of you interested in reading Mike's posts here's how. Click here, which will take you to one of his posts. Now, click on his username on the left hand side. A dropdown box will appear; just click on "view recent posts." All of his posts will appear.
If 2000+ is a little too much for you then you can narrow down the search. The easiest way is to scroll to the top of this page and click on "Find." Then click on "Advanced search." When that page comes up scroll down to the calender and enter the date range you want to look at and then in the box that says "username" enter "mikerowe" (you don't need quotes). Hit enter. All of his posts for that time period will then show up.
lisaward@swbell.net I would think that your Dirty Jobs show would generate quite a bit a money for the channel. They should give you a raise, and a much larger budget with many photos in which to choose.
Still looking at getting you guys to Houston.. Are many "Dirty Jobs" ideas still coming to you? Just a thought...How dirty is "Dirty" to make the show?
this has nothing to do with your posting i was just hoping to someway contact you, and being the computer illiterate person i am i couldnt figure out any other way. anyway i love your show, it is hilarious! i just saw the monkey sanctuary one today is so far is definitely my fav. your funny little comments sure make the show what it is. keep up the good work. by-the-way, i thought i was a fan but i just saw some lady saying some pretty , uh whats the word, suggestive things. hmmm... i almost feel sorry for the things you must hear from fans.
Pain and regret, Mike??? The pain I understand, but regret? What is there to regret? (Go ahead and take all the time you need to make your list.) That is a nice dirty pic of you, but you kinda look like one of the backup dancers in Michael Jackson's Thriller video--at least the pose is reminiscent of that little number. I may actually send off for one of those photos....
A picture of Mike without a shirt, mud wrestling with me-- his new cohost here in Hawaii. Or pig hunting on Kauai with some friends, it's the same either way--there's mud in the picture.
Just to say Mike, you sir, are a darling man! I enjoy all the stinking fetid episode of 'Dirty Jobs'. Your witty banter with your unfortunate co-workers is hysterical! I am available for a trial run if you need someone for your serial monogomy position. Anyhoo, Lewiston Idaho is rich with the stink of POTLATCH lumber production. I have no idea what exactly causes the reek, but a persons nose is overtaken with it within about 10 miles of approaching our fine city. Again you are my dirty hero, i will continue to stalk you from afar! Jeannie
Hi mike i absolutely love your show.. i get so sick and tired of stupid boring shows on tv.. i watch your show everytime its on tv.. i know you probably get tired of hearing people tell you that but i just did get into this thing and this is the first time i've sent you anything i would love to have a picture of you.. i just love your smile but anyway now that i know how too im gonna have to get a picture since i can't have the real thing i guess a picture will do.. haha.. but i hope you read this and again i love your show i hope that i get some kinda answer back.. thanx
Dear mike, (i don't know if you saw this already) I am not reqeustig a dirty job i am giving a good idea...i think it would be great if you did a live 3 hour special, so we could see and witness everything, i think the fans would love that idea. You said yourself on 1 of the shows (you were cleaning the syrup stuff m....) it took you 7 hours, so please take my request into consideration. a huge fan, Abigail White
hello mike my name is olivia farrelly and i am 14 years old and i would like to ask you something. I am from nola (new orleans louisiana) and I would like to know if you have ever renevated a hurricane Katrina house. If you havent then that would be a good dirty job to do becuase well, it is dirty. If you have already done that dirty job then, I would be happy to see it.
Mike I love your show, but if you want to take a vacation.I know who would LOVE to do what you do: My hubby and he's got alot of experience in getting down and dirty.[He works as a C.N.A. cleaning up poop,blood,and other bodily fluids.] So just think about it. Please?

thanks alot , olivia farrelly
p.s.: I am a big fan of your show
Olivia I think he did that one already. He was helping someone get rid of mold in a house that was flooded, but don't quote me on that.
