REVELATION
by Ducksoup

I was listening to some of my brother's CDs at work while Steve Dahl is on vacation, including some Billy Joel. I just noticed an interesting bit in "We Didn't Start The Fire". Check it out...

"...payola, Kennedy, Chubby Checker, Psycho, Belgians in the Congo..." Stop! Let's go to the replay official!

Notice which two references are back-to-back? "...Chubby Checker, Psycho..." Also note that the scary Psycho chords are playing under both of those references?

Which leads me to think that perhaps the actual lyric is "Chubby Checker's psycho!"

by Ducksoup

And the process of getting everyone caught up and up to speed continues...

Due to my computer probs, the 2001 Song Of The Year tournament, which had extended a record-shattering 5 months into this year, ultimately had to be cancelled. But good news, a winner was declared. The 2001 PriBax Radio Network Song Of The Year award goes to...[opens envelope]

Wasn't that educational? Anyhoo congrats to Taco The Wonder Dog, who also won Geak Rookie Of The Year as well as Best Video Of The Year for "Got A Bag Of Doritos".

In other delayed news, due to Lugnuts actually winning one of the many fantasy sports competitions we regularly go head-to-head in, I am currently sporting my Curly Howard look. Those who have yet to see me looking like this (Shaggy) better hurry, because it's growing back fast! (At least what little of it still grows.)

So, David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar are touring together. Um, okay. You know, this might make a good follow-up to The Osbournes. [Lugnuts, cue the Odd Couple theme, please]

"Some time earlier, the Red Rocker's band had thrown him out, asking that he never return. Confused, he went on tour with Diamond Dave, who, coincidentally, had also been thrown out of the same band...twice, no less. Can two washed-up rock singers tour together without driving each other crazy?"

Sammy: "That's not spaghetti, Dave, those are my guitar strings!" Dave: [throws strings at the wall] "Now it's garbage!"

This week's special guest: Former Beach Boy Brian Wilson, who stops by the buffet table backstage and, right after picking his nose, take a single bite out of each of the chicken wings so he can return later to finish them. Plus a special cameo appearance by Gary Cherone as one of the janitors.

ANY CALLS WHILE I WAS OUT? GUESS NOT.
by Ducksoup

Well I'm back to give the old Blog Pond another spin. Had to completely burn down the computer and start over with a clean hard drive. My virus protection is much improved so I don't expect further probs.

I'm sure you're all wondering what I'm up to, but right now I'm more interested in what the rest of you are doing, so let's do a quick roll call...

Max: now officially a bus driver, and also became a dad June 3rd. We welcome his daughter Cheyenne to the universe and hope she has better luck dealing with it.

Peace: Presumably recovered from the same nasty virus that crippled my online status. I'd phone him to ask how he is, but I don't think I can get the necessary bank loan.

Degauss: New crib, new job, new girlfriend, and possibly a new hope for PriBax Radio. Here's hoping we get a chance to return to the old "Apartment".

Lugnuts: Still maintaining the Baxley Entertainment Report, soon to be more accurately renamed The Ashleigh Banfield Hate Page if current trends continue.

Shaggy: Failed to make a scheduled frisbee golf appearance and has not been seen or heard from since. If anyone knows his whereabouts please call the missing persons hotline. (I'm also submitting a photo to local milk companies.)
