Thanks for the memories of the Phillipino bands phonetically working their way through the Top 10 Hits. It was either them or the 10-cent beer at the E-Club that made my visit to beautiful downtown Vietnam, Republic of, so much more enjoyable.
stay safe.
wv=insion: The ability to see hidden deeper meaning.
Okay, a little background into why I find this so funny...
About 15 years ago, Mrs. G. and I went on a cruise with friends of ours, another couple we had known for years - actually commenter SCI-FI and his wife B. The cruise started out of Tampa, FL, and the package had us staying in Tampa for two days before the cruise started.
The first night we were in Tampa, SCI-FI and I went down to the hotel lounge because they had pool tables. Well, there's a country and western band playing. No big, I can live with country.
Until they played "The Electric Slide"
You have not lived until you've heard a fourth rate C&W band do the Electric Slide.
And Skidmark, I've seen and heard a local little restaurant band in Thailand working their way through 70s/80s old rock hits and actually being good, to the point where the singer sounds a lot like the original, for example when singing Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA.
Oh I have so much soul! It's Saturday morning and I'm all alone. I even got up and started dancing while spilling hot coffee on myself with tears of laughter rolling down my face. Dude you started my weekend so right!
Dad, gun nut, motorhead, shaved-head biker with a foul mouth and a bad attitude. Living the dream in Free America after escaping the Volksrepublik of Massachusetts...
A. Somewhere between having too many to fit in one safe and Jay G. (smijer & buck)"the Virtuoso of Vitriol" (AD)"If ever there was a zombie apocalypse, I’d want Jay watching my back." (Liberty)"...totally unhinged (but in a fun way)." (Marko)"...an insane yet friendly hybrid of Dr. Evil and John Malkovich..." (Lissa)"You, my friend, have a twisted mind!" (Old NFO)"Jay is a man I trust to watch my back, but I won't trust with my daughter." (Sigboy)"...the kind of guy my mother warned me about." (Brigid)"...bouncing off the walls sounding like Gonzo on crystal meth." (MedicMatthew)"Yeah, if we ever meet, I'd like you to not be mad." (Salamander)"Jay is an absolutely wonderfully crazy gun nut. " (Top of the Chain)"Enough snide remarks to power a space shuttle" (Snarky)"American Rage Boy" (Kevin Baker)"the Northeast Gunblogger's Social Secretary" (Borepatch)"the Godfather of the Northeast Gun Blogs" (Weer'd beard)"I though you'd be angrier." (Randy)"Gun pimp" (Robb Allen)"Well, Jay's not like that; turns out he's just like he is on the internet, only more so. And life-size. And in 3D" (Tam)

Open Invitation for New Shooters
Just want to extend an open invitation to all potential new shooters in the Northern Virginia area. If you have never shot a firearm, or would like to get back into the shooting sports, or are an accomplished shooter who'd like to try something in my arsenal, give me a shout.
New shooters get range time, targets, gun use and ammo on me. I've even got extra eye and ear protection - all you have to do is show up.

I drank. I was stoic. Apparently I have no soul.
Not that I want to take the fun away from anyone else...

I'm glad someone else found that as funny as I did... ;)
Ok that was funny.

The top rated comment on this video at YouTube:
"Amazing! Katy Perry, shame on you for stealing these guys' song."
Everything is better with polka!
Of course this is coming from a guy who had a high school teacher with a big ole accordion like the guy in the video, and yes it was played in class.
