I've always had a soft spot for this one. The last two panels are money in the bank.

In the book, Onstad puts up the alternate version of the strip with other names on the speed dial, and he seems to imply in the notes that neither version was as funny as he was hoping it would be. I kind of agree, but I always wonder if "Beef's cel" even has a number attached to it (since we learn later beef doesn't have a cell yet); or if Ray was just being optimistic and saving space for when he eventually got one.

And yet he still puts Pat's number last.

Ha...well spotted.

I'm wondering if the P. Diddy SOD are actually songs by P. Diddy or just ones that he recomends.

LOL! I'm guessing ones he recommends, just cuz it would be funnier that way!

You better have wicked sack to be talking that way to wallabeechamp, Assetbar Philippe.

But playing in traffic is fun!

I thought.

Did Lyle give me bad advice again?

Probably both. Songs of his own that he recommends you listen to.

Mmmm..Boston Market.

Mmmm..P Diddy Song of the Day

i used to work for boston market...all the samples you can eat!

I have to say I wouldn't have guessed that Pat would be on the speed dial...

I think this is back when they were the three dirtiest doods in town

Ray calls Pat several times a day, mostly to drunkenly harass him after he's had a few too many martinis.

I GOT MY BONE ON PAAAAAAT

This was back when they hung out and pat wasn't such a dick.

The answer to Ray's question is ZERO.

For every Tony, Toni, Tone song a guy listens to, a ball falls off.

In fact, they have told their publicist that they would like her to lobby for them to be considered for the Nobel Prize in Medicine for contributions to the treatment of testicular cancer. She is strongly considering resigning.

the ol' boston market sidestep. classy.

Next time I am having relationship troubles, Boston Market is going to be the key to reconciliation.

I think he is just trying to shut T up about his love life.

The number for Button #2 is (718) 387-6962

Free when you call from work!

That is for Dial-a-song, not P. Diddy.

Tina is exactly the kind of person who makes a cheesy custom label and then puts the label on crooked.

I love these old crazy alt texts

I love his little claws...

The claw is indeed what makes it.

How does this have 3.5, this is beautiful stuff.

Does it REALLY never rain in southern California?

As to the relevance of your question, I am not sure. But I can certainly answer for you, as a lifelong resident of SoCal (as no one calls it.)

It rains very, very rarely. Oftentimes, it will rain, at most, about 10 times a year. When I was a little kid, every time it rained I would get excited and ask my parents if they thought it would flood. They always stared at me like I was crazy. I would later discover that this was because it was only raining about 2 inches, thus making my questions exceedingly silly. Also, we do say 'like' unnecessarily in almost every sentence, and most of the people here are on pot. (See: my high school)

OMG!!! I *need* to put that on my speed dial!

Your mom is on my speed dial.
when we do it.

Boston Market is officially going on my speed dial.

LOVE me some Beef and Boston.
