BILLY GOES DOWN!!

The saga does indeed continue... and I am a happy man.

There is No Parasol That Could Shelter This Weather...

Every once in a while, evil triumphs...

'KING OF KONG' VILLAIN RECLAIMS DONKEY KONG THRONE

This is an update for all of my minions who are familiar with this man and the docu that made him infamous. As much as I don't really like the guy, you gotta respect a human being who can rock a flag tie with the dress shirt tucked neatly inside black jeans with as much confidence as ol' Billy do. Not to mention that hair-lmet.

Someone's gotta take Billy down. Who's gonna do it?

Anyway, as the summer starts to wind down, I reflect on the last few months as I went through more hills and valleys than usual. Here I recall the many life-lessons learned:

• Unemployment in the summer is kinda cool... for about a month.
• Studying for a Series 7 exam is rough, especially if your study habits have radically declined on an annual basis since 7th grade.
• The Summer of Bearproof is in full effect: 5 shows, some radio action, and a sore neck.
• Driving shirtless in a car with leather interior is very awkward. Don't do it.
• If/when your roommate asks what you're doing tonight, if your reply is "pizza and a two-liter" make sure your reply is focused and properly enunciated (don't imply, accidental or otherwise, that a "cheerleader" is your beverage du jour avec pizza).
• Unconfirmed study shows that in public restrooms gentlemen prefer a "one-stall-courtesy" on either side (kinda like league bowlers), unless situations won't allow it. No verdict yet on the ladies room.
• Purple Stuff
• $1 corndog Tuesdays and streetside taco stands. Both rule.
• There are lots of moms, ladies and kids at The Gateway during the daytime. Not many dads, or even guys.
• Power stances and windmill guitar strums are awesome. The ladies love it.

Back to the books, see ya in October...

Out There Runnin' Just to Be on the Run...

Yes, even a hibernating bear pokes its head out of the cave once in a while to check out the scene. Before I retreat back to my hole I figured I'd write something. I know I don't post much. I apologize for that. With the weather improving I think I shall eventually emerge from my lengthy slumber with more to share. For right now though...

Read This.

Visit This.

And Enjoy This.

Additionally, some curious folk have inquired as to the title of my blog. I agree with them that it is very clever and thought-provoking, but it isn't original. I confess I stole it from one of my favorite songs when I was younger. Here is the flashback for your viewing pleasure.



"Just Take This With You"

I'm moving on. Yes I'm grooving on. I'm finally free.

I'm not going to weigh in on all the drama going on with Late Night Network Programming lately. I will say that the best part of my every night is hopefully only on hiatus. I was a regular viewer of The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. The fortune of the situation is that this last week has been dynamite entertainment. I am happy that Conan's taken the high road in this whole situation while keeping his humor hat on at the same time. I'm proud to be a Coco fan.

What a week for TV. I was glued every single night. Great stuff Coco. We love ya and want to see you again soon!
