>>Oh man, "cheese" does not begin to describe that Overtime video. It's
>>hilarious, though. I've also discovered a new pair of words that should
>>never again appear in the same sentence: "Mike" and "acting."
 
>Indeed.  I don't like any of the videos from the Guaranteed album.
>The Overtime video with Mike playing the hard-nosed factory supervisor

What about the part in the car where Mark pushes that girl's face into his lap? I think he mouths the words "hum a few bars".  I wonder if he married her.

Hiya Gang,

I wanted to give some big hellos and thanks to a couple of people and
rave about someone else. Yeah, like that is something new for me.

First I want to thank my newest buddy Lars-Ove Larsson for his
kindness in sending me all the music that Boon Gould put up on his
website (RIP). Not only is that super cool, but even though I offered
to send him a blank CD, he turned down my offer and sent it on to me.
How cool is that?

I have listened to most of it, but much like Steely Dan, I have to be
in the mood to hear him. I've gotten all the way to 'Haunted House'
which is kinda bizarre, and have enjoyed it fairly well. Thanks
Lars-Ove, you are a trouper!

Speaking of The Dan, I recently bought 'Everything Must Go' and
thoroughly enjoyed it. While I thought some of it was odd to say the
least, I enjoyed the title song immensely.

Also, I wanna give a big shout of thanks to Carl & Laurel for sending
me video and audio of interviews with Lolita after 9/11. I've been
able to watch the video of Lolita being interviewed by some TV person
(not the BBC which I would love to see) and was in awe of her before,
due to her survival and all, but watching her appear to be cool, calm
and collected was impressive. Lolita, I have thought of you as being
a cool person, but now I know you're also a cool cat.

I would make a joke about asking Lolita to marry me or something, but
I doubt my wife would be amused....but then she'd never read it, but
then again I think Lolita would probably find it unfunny as
well....so I am refraining.

Well, I think I've done enough damage for one day....so I will go away now.

Doug+
