Just for Fun Friday Monday

I decided to do something a little different today. I usually save my funny stuff for Friday, but I heard this on Sirius Satellite Radio's Raw Dog Comedy channel while I was touring the Midwest on vacation and, if your day is anything like mine, figured you could use the laugh.

There is no video to speak of and the audio is mostly safe for work, save one has a few explicit exclamations, but isn't filthy.

Enjoy!

Just for Fun Friday

I'm relatively sure that, as I watched this video, the feeling I had will probably be the closest thing I could come to what it must have been like for black people in the 1950s to see the likes of Pat Boone cover songs from the often-bawdy black roadhouse music scene that would become Rock n Roll.



Before you write me/comment about how it's not remotely similar and how Little Richard et al. were robbed, check the title of the post and chill out. I get it, but it's not like it's 'too soon' or anything.

Whoa

Ok. I hate reality shows. I watched the first two seasons of 'The Real World,' and that's about it--oh, and I did watch the first season of The Osbournes. I've never watched 'American Idol' or any of that mess.

So, it's taken me some time to finally click on the pic and news story of this 40-something Scot who'd never been kissed on 'Britain's Got Talent' that has been just about everywhere I look. But once it made the Washington Post, I relented and thought "Ok. Fine. I give up. Let's see how good this woman really is."

Damn. I love Les Misérables, so this was particularly touching. If you're a fan of music at all, you should watch. (Sorry, it's not embeddable)
