But how do you celebrate March 15th?  Put on some Ides of March record and eat a Caesar Salad by repeatedly stabbing into it with a steak knife while watching the adventures of Popeye?


exactly. except for the popeye part. and ketchup on the salad.


You have to watch Popeye so that you can hear someone talking to a Brutus.  But you're right, we need some blood on the Caesar.

So watcha doin' fer lunch tomorrow?

Now's as good a time as any to ask: Did Brutus at some point have his name changed to Bluto?  Or have I had the name wrong all these years?

Holy Shit!  "Drivin' While Blind"

BOS just for the shock value of hearing ZZ Top on 10@10

Is St. Patrick's Day an all-Irish set?  An all-green set?  I suspect the former since Dave can't bring himself to pass up a chance to play U2, but have you heard anything?

We hear Top often enough but this song is a definite 10@10 breakout.

At my college station we had  a PSA for the Eye Bank... and we'd inevitably play it followed by this song (or "Doctor My Eyes")

Only 1:17 by my clock and we're already on tune #6.  Yikes!

Speaking of Yikes, who's doing this "I Haven't Stopped Dancing Yet" song?  I can almost see the coke spilling onto the mixing board.

VHM to Rev. Jesse Jackson speaking truth to power.  I wonder where he got lost ...
