It is not the kayak that makes me a god, it merely served as the instrument of my epiphany.

Hark when the night is falling

Hear! hear the pipes are calling,

Loudly and proudly calling,

Down thro' the glen.

There where the hills are sleeping,

Now feel the blood a-leaping,

High as the spirits of the old Highland men.

Towering in gallant fame,

Scotland my mountain hame,

High may your proud standards gloriously wave,

Land of my high endeavour,

Land of the shining river,

Land of my heart for ever,

Scotland the brave.

High in the misty Highlands,

Out by the purple islands,

Brave are the hearts that beat

Beneath Scottish skies.

Wild are the winds to meet you,

Staunch are the friends that greet you,

Kind as the love that shines from fair maiden's eyes.

Towering in gallant fame etc.

Far off in sunlit places,

Sad are the Scottish faces,

Yearning to feel the Kiss Of sweet Scottish rain.

Where tropic skies are beaming,

Love sets the heart a-dreaming,

Longing and dreaming for the homeland again.

Towering in gallant fame etc.

You'll have to come out again soon.

See, I took a buddy out on Lake Minnetonka this weekend, and he had a beautiful 17' wood kayak.

That he built himself.

You and your web toes are a god to no one but the inflatable pump.

Squimp, squimp squimp….

Hey Joe your singing-scam worked, expect an e-mail with audio in your mailbox.

Lads, do you know the old story about two lions walking down a trail single file when the one in back leans forward and licks the ... uh ... butt of the lion in front? So the lion in front, not unreasonably, jumps around and asks the lion behind what the HELL he thinks he's doing? The lion in back responds, "Sorry, I just ate a Lawyer and I'm trying to get the taste out of my mouth."

Aside from the pleasant thought of, say, jdmorse being eaten by lions, sturmsebber's audio will be the sort of thing you will REALLY want to erase from the memory bank as soon as possible. Now I'm honor bound to play it on the next podcast, but I STRONGLY suggest that someone ELSE send an audio file I can play immediately after his to ... get the sound out of our heads.

Imagine ME singing ... AFTER INHALING HELIUM ... that gives you a rough idea ... and that doesn't take into account what he SAYS ... {shudder}!

Joe

Joe

As high pitched as your voice is now, the Helium would probably make it go ultrasonic, so other than it annoying some of the neighborhood dogs, I don't see it being much of a problem. </font>

I don't get upset. I get revenge.

Wait... that doesn't sound right.

Whatever.

Look, there'll be another podcast as soon as I can drum up another interview. I've got some requests out but no firm takers yet. But it's best to be PREPARED so ... why don't you just send me your latest and we'll be ready to go when the interview happens.

Oh, no you don't! That just what you'd expect me to do isn't it? You'll get it when I say so!

I have made requests of the followiing (you can see how desperate I've become ... well in some cases anyway):

Dame YK2 ( I may not have a current email ... or she may be reluctant to give me her phone number )

rune ( barrel, bottom, scraper )

OGSF ( RL intruded )

Peng (RL intruded )

Berli (Okay I haven't actually ASKED him ... in the first place it would be shortest Podcast on record and in the second ... I've got way too many Mondays as it is ... still, if he's willing )

Steve ( We're blaming the BFC Conspiracy )

All good choices. Well, except for Rune, of course. I imagine you could just put on a 60 cycle hum and it would be as interesting as Rune. Tell you what. Do five minutes of dead air and five minutes of Rune and see if anyone can spot the difference.

Did I mention that I used to sing professionally?

Joe

Being paid to stop hardly means you've sang professionally.

Freakin' car broke down and for reasons beyond my control, I can't get it fixed right now. Bought a bike to get to work... haven't been on a bike since 1979...

Anyway, it gives me a lot of time to listen to music on my iPod, and today, the pain in my ass finally effected my thought processes in a negative way. I downloaded Joe's podcasts and listened to some on the ride home. The horror of Boo's voice made me completely forget the torture of peddling the bike, and Seanachai's voice lulled me into a near comatose state. Thank the gods I'm starting 2 weeks of vacation so I can put off listening to the rest of it.

Oh, and yes Joe, any time

Don't count me out yet, Sir 37mm. Despite my once-a-month turn sending, I am still prepaed to once again use my powers of investigation for the glory of the Peng Challenge Thread.

Good work Juan-gigante…

The more pieces of this dastardly puzzle that we can create then the more ridiculous the answer will surely be!

I can’t help but think that the sea-slime is involved in some way; I mean just consider this quote said in regard to the stuff…

"This thing is ugly; it has no socially redeeming virtues."

I posted a sycophantic and toadying post over at The Panda's Thumb as MrPeng, and Lo and Behold, someone shows up and quotes a bit from my sig HERE at BFC at me in a reply over THERE at the PT...

I have my suspicions as to whom it might be. Anyone care to fess up and save me the trouble of investigating? Dint think so. It will go hard on the perp, I can tell you. I'm considering punishments up to and including a Stern Lecture with Full Finger Wag. I might even throw in a Look Over the Glasses while doing it. All depends on how hard it is to find the perp.
