I'm getting dizzy from all these trackbacks.

POC, does the Steely closer redeem the set for you?

(P.S.  Yeah, the "don't speak right" verse is really really dumb and I wish it weren't there.  I'm guessing that English wasn't Lee Oskar's first language.  Indeed, I'm guessing that it's Lee Oskar singing those lines.)


yes, the dan redeems everything. i'm about to swing right out of my chair.

no excuse for oskar. why can't he hire a translator, why can't he hire a translator...?

ooof, fawin' in wuv!

Near-BOS to Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds (even though Joe Frank had left the band two years prior, a piece of trivia I find delightful).  What a great, simple melody.  What's that little piano-tinkle thing they keep doing called?

WPOS (worst pronunciation of Set): HJF&R, "Fawwin in Love". should be played back to back with Kenny Nolan's "I Wike Dweamin'"

Feh.

Did Dave just pronounce it "fawwin" in the back-sell? I believe he did!

And was Dave trolling with his offer to listen to TV themes on his stereo system in exchange for a couple of bottles of Moet Chandon?

I love that we all had *identical* reactions to all that.

Any sign of Alicat?  Think she's in a Round 2 interview?

BOS to War.  Very fond associations with this song, I don't know how one can NOT smile after hearing that refrain over and over.


Alicat called me on my cell to ask me to proxy "Miracles" for her, but I had to jet over to a customer at 10:30 & just now got back.  She was not in an interview, but rather squiring 2nd-graders on a field trip.

I heard the back announce & I am pretty sure I was the gentleman in question who debated the TV theme choice with him.  I said it wasn't even the best theme of the shows debuting in 1975, behind Barney Miller & Baretta.  So does this mean I have an open invite to go drink champagne at Dave's house?  He won't get laid tho.

Dude, isn't this like the second time Dave's hit on you? No, seriously! I vaguely remember us teasing you about this in the past...

Could that have been the first (and likely the only) 6-way jinx in board history?
