I’ll be busy this weekend recording Eye of the Tiger in handfarts
Well, the Phils lost game two last night. Shields kept the Phils hitters off balance and the Phils left a ton of runners on base. Right now, Philadelphia sports talk radio has done a complete 180. Yesterday, the morning shows were contemplating if a 4 game sweep would be a good idea, today they are looking at Moyer taking the mound and deciding if we should pitch Hamels on two days rest to stay alive in the series. Philly fans, relax. Seriously, we left Tampa with a split and while that isn’t up 2-0, it is a great start to the series. This Phillies squad is a tough team and we’re still in a good position, 1-1 and heading back to our house. Keep hope alive. It’s only one loss…

I’m going to spend the weekend doing lots of recording – I’ve got a small stack of books (The Hidden Alphabet, The Scrambled States of America, and The Secret Life of Walter Kitty) to read as part of the next volume of “Daddy Reads” for the kids, need to post Youtube vids of me playing Sex on Fire and Laid from Jan’s guitar lesson this week, and I also need to make good on a promise to mamatulip to record Porkadillo, the song based on her post as well as a cheer up Flutter version of Eye of the Tiger (played in handfarts).

ok, i am the resident spider killer in our house because mr. lime is terrified of them. but if i saw a big ass spider like that i’d die of a heart attack for sure.

Thanks for covering the spider action for me today!

Sex on Fire is one of my favorite songs. Have you heard Closer by them? That one is my very favorite!

lime – i thought you lived in the carribean for a year, don’t they have big bugs there?
Chris – np
tori – yeah, I’m going to see them next month in Philly, can’t wait!

As a child of the 70′s, I loved the Ron Howard video. And Plaid Stallions. Thanks…

I want to hear the recording of “Eye of the Tiger.”
Could I use it for an intro to my 100 word stories for podcasting.isfullofcrap.com?

Does that mean you’ll wear the cute little shorts?

The “Vlad and Boris “Song for Sarah” YouTube was superb: we both wanted more.
Actually , all the Russians are laughing at Palin on their local TV stations, actually, the whole world is laughing at Palin (and McCain), disregarding the mentally challenged in some remote states, some hard-core Reps who love “a good old financial crash” or, well, all the people who never saw Saturday Night Live
Must check out all your YouTube videos asap.
Oh, my SO convinced me not to comment on “sports you know nothing about”, so a quick “Go Phils Go” is hopefully appropriate.

I too am hoping for the shorts.

Houston – definitely you can
mamatulip – oui
Carolyn – the things i do for my guitar students
Peter – saying Go Phils is always appropriate
Kerry – lessons are $20/ half hour, $30 with the shorts, and I do remind you that tipping does enhance the performance

Eye of Tiger. In handfarts… Well, that’s different!

I used to listen to sports talk radio in NY ( WFAN), It got way too irritating. I’m down to just reading the scores. But go Phils even though I live 90 minutes from Tropicana stadium.

and also, ever since I saw that Mark Wahlberg sketch a couple weeks ago, I’ve been saying that to my cats. “heeey cat! how’s it going? say hello to your mother for me, ok?” did you see this one? made me giggle.
