Twisted Gopher

Tucson, Arizona - Jeffry Samuels, 45 year old father of 3, called the offices of TwistedGopher yesterday, wanting to go public with his enjoyment of several sit-coms his daughters watch. Samuels hopes that by sharing his story he can help other men realize that they aren't alone in having such desires.

"I'm currently really into iCarly", Samuels reports, "I kinda like that it's hi-tech, with them doing a webcast and everything. And that brother character, he really cracks me up, what a stitch he is. Lots of parents poo-poo these teeny-bopper shows, but I think they're missing some really good TV here."

Samuels said that for a long time he was hooked on Drake and Josh, but that he's moved beyond that now. "Once that Josh character lost so much weight, I kinda lost interest. When he was all chubby and unpopular I could relate to him, but I guess we just grew apart."

Samuels also said he hoped coming out in the newspaper would be easier on his wife - "I think if she realizes I'm not alone in this, maybe she won't think it's quite so weird."

Jeff was last seen watching Hillary Duff reruns. "Oh yeah, that one's sweet, she's still my favorite", Jeff said.
