Peter blurts out that the second instrument on today's quiz is a french horn.  Did I tell you guys that Peter and I played french horn in junior high school band?  I was first chair, Peter was 3rd (out of 3).


Was Peter as dumb then as he sounds now? :wink:


Be nice.


OK, "was Peter as much of a lovable ditz then...?"


Yes.


More dish please.  Were you attending the same school?  Which was it?

Adam's Jr. High, in Richmond up on the hills (aka, East Richmond Heights).

He was a very gawky, innocent and intense guy.  Very nice, but seemed a little lost.  I was also in math class with him, and he used to drive everybody crazy, including the teacher, with questions.  He actually cared about learning the stuff, which was fine, but our teacher was so incredibly bad, it just dragged everything out.  The only good part about that class was that the teacher had such a bad temper that he'd go nuts and actually throw things -- chalk, erasers, books.  I think he actually hit a student a year or two later....

Lost touch with Peter after 8th grade -- he was just gone after that.

Saw him again in college, though we never talked.

Wow, James Brown on Kfog at 1:50.  Not something you expect to hear here.

KFOG seems to be compelling their airstaff to share their innermost thoughts with the Fogheads via the KFOG Blog page. Everyone has posted something at least once in the past week (Mike Powers included that pic of Beck busking at Pancho Villa a couple weeks ago that's been making the rounds of late), and ol' Dave, that serial blogster, has posted three times, including one earlier this evening, in which he tipped what tomorrow's set is going to be. I won't spill yet, but if you're curious go here:

Thanks for that link, Jim.  With access to everything through the Clubhouse, I never visit the actual KFOG (or Drive, or CG ...) pages anymore.

So I noticed some amusing censorship in the blog comments area.  I won't get into whether censoring is good or bad or necessary or not in the blogsphere, I'll just note the absurdity of this rebus:

sad, sad, sad:  today's Pop Quiz Fogheads can't seem to figure out who sings "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother".  incorrect guesses so far include the Moody Blues, Neil Diamond and the Righteous Bros.

ETA: woman Foghead asked: "are they Caucasian?" WTF?!?

To be 1/3 fair, Neil did cover the song and included it in his live set for a long time, IIRC.

You are quite correct... but I'd bet you a month's salary that the Foghead in question was not anywhere NEAR thinking that.  Hey did you peruse my comments on Gay Nite at SBC in the Sports thread?

The 3rd song was Zep, "the Lemon Song."

I gather "lemon" was the tie that connected all of them (Lemonheads, Oranges and Lemons, Lemon Song)? What does Xavier Rudd have to do with lemons?

Yep, 'fraid so--got a date with the wife. We've been kind of on opposite schedules this week so I promised her we'd go out on Saturday. Sorry--otherwise I'd dig hangin' wit'cha.
