Song from an episode of Simpsons where they went to a musical on Broadway about the Betty Ford Clinic.
Speaking of which, Welcome Back (now singing theme from "Welcome Back Kotter"), You're Dreams were Your Ticket Out. Welcome Back...
enough of that. The only good thing about that show was a hot John Travolta. Oh mama.
Everyone calm down, I'm kidding...If I weren't I'd be lying here with a stoach full of pills and alcohol.
Anyway, welcome back Allie. I'm sorry Broadway wasn't what you hoped [check one of the list, next stop Hollywood...then, when that's disillusioning, you can settle down in Kansas...like Dorothy and Marianne from Gilligan's Island...nice peaceful, moral, good-hearted, well-established Kansas...I'll let you pick your city, though, so it doesn't seem like I'm telling you what to do: The big captial Topeka (the popacatepotal is not in canada, rather in mexico, mexico, mexico...sorry, randomness i couldn't resist), the really big Abilene, the center of the geographic United States (Albany, Kansas), or the really small and quaint Kansas City (KA, not MO)]
I'm just kidding (no i'm not)
GET THIS!!!!
Everybody, if you haven't seen it, go to www.dailyherald.com, look under community news for Geneva, and find the story about Astronomy Day....IT'S BY ME!!!!!AH!!!!!!
Wooo, exciting,
Anyway, I'm done talking...I'm going to miss all of you...it's almost August...you're almost leaving...except the underclassmen, in which case i'm almost leaving...I'll miss you all...some more than others (you know who you are)
Doesn't that make you wonder (except those who know)
Bascially, all of you read this blog...and there's not too many people who do read the blog, so i'd say it's a pretty safe bet that you're one of them
Except Joe...I hate him
And Christy
And Gagan
And Dan
And Shane
And Jennifer
And Tim
And Renee
And Mike
And Mambo #5
And Anonymous
Anyone else who read my blog, i'll really miss you.
Good night ev'rybody!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CALVIN COOLIDGE! (RE-POST)
That's right! Calvin Coolidge was born on the birthday of our country (the 96th birthday to be exact) Now, doesn't that make him the most patriotic man ever to serve our country?
I know, haven't blogged in a good while...i guess i fell into the trap...THE FIRY BLACK BOTTOMLESS PIT OF NON-BLOG POSTING...MWAHAHAHA
Yeah, that would have been really scary if like the swamp thing had said...unfortunately, I said it...however, since this isn't some crazy audio blog, you could go read that like Boris Karloff (you'd better goshdarn know who he is) and pertend you never read it any other way.
So, I've been busy this week...working man now, you know. Wake up at 7:30, get home at 5:45...ugh...at least i'm making money...on the other hand, i'm too tired to do anything with the money...or with the precious time i have left over...meh...i just layed around last summer, it's kinda good to be out and about...and yet...
Anyway, making this as random as possible.
Was just listening to my 30th Anniversary Dr. Demento Album bought in Ohio (#1, just like anyother normal 17 year old, #2, does anyone say "album" any more? not like photo album or "i'll bum along" but like a music album) and I realized how perfect the lyrics of one song's refrain are for me...picture in your mind a fast paced rhythm that's just those clavi sticks banging together...kinda the sound you can make with your tongue, except really fast...you know, the sound that's like raindrops
"on roses and whiskers on kittens"
oops, wrong song
"I'm addicted to stress, that's the way that I get things done
When I'm not under pressure then I sleep to long
And I hang around like a lazy bum
And I think I'm going nowhere, and that makes me nervous,
Everybody's out to get me but I feel alright,
Everybody's out to get me but I feel alright,
Everybody's out to get me but I feel alright,
Everybody's looking at me."
Imagine that all run together, no pauses
Next on my mental agenda
It's kind of sad that Marlon Brando died yesterday. You know, he coulda been a contender. But when they give you an offer you can't refuse, you have to take it. I hear you can always rely on the kindness of strangers, but I bet he wound up with an earful of cider.
CHALLENGE: I just referenced 4 of Brando's best movies. Name as many as you can (the last one's easy)...please don't dissappoint...Shane, you're a movie buff...Gagan, you like old stuff like me...Kid, come on...one of you can go for the whole quartet. (btw, one of the four quotes he didn't say, but it's the most famous from the movie...he actually said "Stella")
Well, HAPPY COOLIDGE DAY!
4/3 = In 5 and half innings, the Cubs defeat the Sox, behind Maddux and HRs by Alou (his b-day), Sosa, and ... Rey Ordonez? Well, I guess he should be our starting shortstop...he won me over.
Random Factoid: Three Early Presidents died on the fourth of July. James Monroe was one. John Adams and Thomas Jefferson (both instrmental to the declaration's signing) both died on its 50th anniversary...isn't that the best, most fitting historical fact ever?
Pip Pip!
