Hucklebug, Outtakes Episode: Intro, cribble, “Renegade,” extended RIP’s for Ed McMahon and Farrah Fawcett, the day we got cable, every night is treat night until we run out of bologna, Scotty Dude outtakes, extended fuck-off for Mark Sanford & ensuing discussion of cheating, poo-poo undies, Dr. Phil/Frasier, graduation, out-tro including Top Five Must-Haves In My Dream Home.
NOTE: Intro and out-tro were recorded on 9/25, the day of the “garbled recording” on Stennie’s side. Your Humble Editor was not able to fix this, so it remains.
Music: “The Hucklebuck,” performed by Otis Redding, Lee Rocker, and Frank Sinatra.
Must haves for the dream home:
1. Basement – for storage and the occasional man-cave item
2. Location – close to restaurants and stores, but far enough away for privacy
3. Great neighbors – Respectful and friendly
4. Groundskeeper/maid/handyman – cause if it’s my dream home, I want someone else to keep it up.
5. Solid gold toilet (heated) – If you’re dropping mega-cash for a gold toilet, you gotta spend the extra dollars for the warmer.
OK, so maybe I low-balled my opening bid for the start time of the Hucklebug AlTracks-o-rama a bit. Yeah, a bit. Really any time on Friday evening probably works, though I’m pretty worthless after 11 pm. (It’s 11 now, and I’m fading fast.) Also, it’d be good if we could do it before Pinky comes in mid Nov.
Re: Hotpockets trademark infringement. If you’re feeling bored, I could regale you on the finer points of Likelihood of Confusion analysis, which would peak the fun meter right up there with on-air Jenga. Long story short, if you weren’t using the phrase Eat Free(ly) in connection with the same or related goods*/services as Hotpockets, you don’t have much of a case.
FWIW, you could set up a “gripe site” to tell the world how much hotpockets blow and make fair use of the slogan/mark.
*I appreciate that it’s stretching credulity to refer to what they sell as “goods.”
I’m a little behind again 🙁
OMG—I love the behind-the-scenes of the singing of the “Renegade” opening!! GOOD STUFF!!
I heard something recently about the Cash4Gold people getting in some sort of trouble…
Actually, Stennie, I’ll disagree with you on whether or not it’s bullshit when men say that they’re not meant to be monogamous. I think different people do different things. Some do have a harder time resisting the urge to be with as many people as possible while other men don’t have that urge at all.
I think it’s unfair to call “bullshit” on any attitude when it’s controlled by a personality. I know people who have quit smoking cold turkey, but I don’t judge certain folks I know for not being able to do the same. JUST SAYIN’.
There’s also a difference between cheating and having an open relationship. I have a friend who is married with a kid and he and his wife date other people. I don’t get it, but it’s their life. It doesn’t make much sense to me to call it a “marriage” if you’re dating other people. But again, people are different. What works for you might not even make sense to someone else.
So, how a person feels and how he she chooses to live their life is up to them and short of messing with other people, I think it’s not fair to judge folks, though it may be fun to.
I don’t have a dream home, really. Though I dream of owning a cabin on a mountain top in Japan one day. I don’t care what’s in it so long as it has running water, electricity and Internet. I also dream of having a flat in Edinburgh, Scotland overlooking the Royal Mile. Again, don’t care what’s in it so long as it has running water, electricity and Internet. I’ll provide everything else.
OK, on to ep 160!! HUZZAH!
