“You know what I want.
You know what I need.
Or maybe you don’t.
So listen to me.
Do I have to come right flat-out and tell you everything?
Give me some money.”

He’s on the run from a mob of torch-wielding Cavs fans.

Am I missing something? Where did Joe go? Are my internets broken? Time to call Al. Whatever this is I’m sure hostmonster is behind it.

Stonehenge:

“The problem isn’t that the band was flat, The problem is there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being crushed my a dwarf. It tended to understate the hugeness of the monuments themselves.”

or something like that

My favorite part isn’t even a line. It’s when they are playing at that local fair or whatever it is and they show the guy sitting on the bench, with a frown on his face, giving the band a thumbs-down. Cracks me up every time.

Joe, you need to get yourself out to Fresno.

Fresno Grizzlies (Pacific Coast League)
As Seen on TV Night with Shammy Cloth Giveaway, June 6
Whether its Ron Popeil hawking a Chop-O-Matic or Billy Mays touting the virtues of Mighty Putty, it’s a fact that infomercials have become an inescapable part of the American television landscape. On Saturday, the Grizzlies are paying homage to these legendary pitchmen and their legendary products with “As Seen on TV” night. Clappers, Chia Pets, and Snuggies will all get their due during this special evening…but you should wait. Because there is more. The first 2,500 fans through the gate will receive a free Grizzlies Shamwow. That’s right, free! This product generally retails for $29.95, so get yourself to Chukchansi Park in order to take advantage of this amazing one-time offer. Also, there will be a baseball game, if you’re into that sort of thing.

1. Amen to whoever mentioned the Saucy Jack part.

“You’re a naughty one…Saucy Jack/
You’re a haughty one…Saucy Jack!”

2. The part where they reconvene backstage after the Stonehenge prop debacle. They cut to the conversation going on back there, just after the dwarves were dancing around the 18″ stonehenge-angelica houston made model.

Anyway, I’m too lazy to recall the exact quotes, but David St. Albans is responding to what Ian must have just said off camera, saying something like “No, I don’t think the problem was the band was flat, I think the problem was there was an eighteen inch model of stonehenge on the stage w/ little dwarves dancing around it….”

Joe,

Two things.

1) Pujols has gotten on base in at least half of the his plate appearances for 13 games in a row now. Excluding Barry in 2004, who probably did that for 130 games in a row, my question is is this a noteworthy or merely mean feat?

2) When are you gonna talk about The Last Detail, maybe tying the atmosphere into your Cleveland childhood? That movie is the bomb, just watched it again.
