Do you want to know how good Albert Pujols is? His name is Poo holes, and no one makes fun of him.

This is awesome even though it's shot with a phone.

Annoying

Youtube headline reads "C6 acceleration" I'm thinking 'Hell Yes!!!! Can't wait to hear that monster pushed to the redline.' I then hear some horrible techno instead of the engine. Please fellow Youtubers, if you are posting a vid of your sweet a$$ hooptie lay off the music, any music. Allow the gloriousness of your motor to sound off.

correct:

P.S. please note the completely justifiable utterence made @ the 9 sec. mark.

video of the week

I have been known to experience earworms from time to time but this latest one is approaching 3 weeks in duration. Pretty much the most severe episode I have ever encountered. It started, innocently enough, while driving the family hauler, listening to the local radio station that promises "we'll play anything" to which I usually add, "as long as it sucks."
Anywho, it was beautiful early spring evening, sunny and warm, windows down sunroof open, wind in my bald, when I heard the synth intro. I recognized it immediately. Survivor with their not quite biggest hit, "High on You." Mullet driven, hard rock pop, ballad mid 80's hell/kitchy smarmy trash. Or MDHRPBM80'SH/KST for short.
That damn thing has been lodged inside my dome ever since, first thing in the morning, when I wake from sleep for that half wooden, half asleep trip to the bathroom. While running, while at work, while typing this crap.
I once, about 7 years ago had a horrible run of Billy Joel earworms, mostly "Uptown Girl," "Allentown," the song a bottle " a bottle of red..." whatever that is, and "Still Rock and Roll to me" But that now seems like a small creak compared to the mighty Mississippi that torment/entertains me day and night churning through my ears with line like, " I'm higher than a kite I know I'm getting hooked on your love." and "I'm screaming in the night I know I'm getting hooked on your love." and da Na na na Na na (wanker guitar hook)
So here it is, in all it's glory. Listen at your own peril, but please take note of the vidoes's high production value.

Survivor - High on You



Yes!!!. Is there a better example of mid 80's suck?? Yes, but I'm done typing for now. So bravely go forth and seek your own mid 80's suck, Im thinking The Outfield, the Hooter's or Rick Springfield...
