Life is skittles and life is beer

[slipjig3]

The universe occasionally likes to lull us into a false sense of complacency by tossing a nice day our way, hoping we embrace the good weather long enough to dash our finest hopes with a mid-April ice storm or some such malarkey. That said, I'm not going to turn down a day like today: gorgeous sunny spring-like weather, warm anough for me to ditch the jacket in the car and tool around with the windows down. To sweeten the deal, the DJ was kind enough to oblige with Falco, Tommy Tutone, Depeche Mode and Semisonic back-to-back. I don't think I've ever felt better screaming out a phone number to no one in particular.

Meanwhile, over at Arby's, they have these new Buffalo Popcorn Chicken Shakers. Concept: Breaded chicken fragments in a cup with a lid—pour on the sauce, cover, shake and eat. That's the concept, anyway. Actual course of events: pour on the sauce, cover, shake, taste, wince, spit, wipe tongue with napkin, fling remaining chicken fragments at passing mall vermin. Advice: avoid product like a hooker with a visible infection. (I don't think it's related, but they gave me a senior discount today. I'm not entirely sure how to take that.)

If I'm going to have a Lehrer earworm, I'd rather it have been "I Hold Your Hand In Mine". But I'll take this over "Pumpin' And Blowin'" anytime.

So if Sunday you're free why don't you come with me...

(Actually, "Vatican Rag" is my preferred, but it's all good. "First you get down on your knees, fiddle with your rosaries....")

~The law was very firm it
Took away my permit
The harshest penalty I ever endured.
It turns out there was a reason
Cows were out of season
And one of the hunters? Well, he wasn't insured!"

R-r-r-r-r-rpck me Amadeus!!

It would have been even better with some b52's , methinks. But then I am partial to Rock Lobster or Planet Claire.

I got suckered in by those Arby's things, too. They sounded good, though, didn't they? ! :/

I was about to curse you soundly for the title of this post, which gave me an immediate earworm.

However, it was wiped out several lines later by the mention of Falco.

Now I might have to kill you. ;)

Maybe you need to dye your hair purple. ;)
