We all know one....

I know a music expert. When the first note of the song starts, he can name the band, the lead guitarist, and the guitar he/she is playing. He knows the drummer's name, and if he/she had an addiction problem at the time of recording. He can also tell you how many paternity suits the lead singer has. A freak of nature this guy is.

Once, he threw a picture frame, made out of 100% elephant dung, at me. I'm rolling around his living room floor, with a 2 inch gash over my right eye, like a punch drunk prize fighter. As I'm bleeding, all over my NASCAR SUPERSTORE customized Kyle Petty t-shirt, he stands over me just like a referee would. Does he look to the kitchen area to see if anybody is going to throw in the towel? Does he wait for me to stand up to give me the standing eight count? AAWWW H3LL No! In the best impersonation of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin he says "Josh Homme!! How many times do I have to tell you? Josh Homme is the lead guitarist of KYUSS. Now quit bleeding on my carpet!"
It took twelve washes to get the blood out of that t-shirt. I now get cold chills around elephants. Last but not least, I will never get Homme and Garcia (lead singer of KYUSS) mixed up again.

I'm telling you this story for a reason. I'm in training! The date is set, Friday Sept. 12Th! I have my daughter Morgan throwing picture frames with her left hand. My son Brandon is training at the local hospital to be the best cut man in the south. I'm not looking to dethrone the champ. I'm just preparing in case I get the answer wrong again. Well, I know it's training time! Morgan just came out of her room with a huge smile and a picture frame in her left hand....

(if you don't know what happens on Sept. 12Th then there is NO hope for you! I'll give you a fight'n chance 'cause that's the type of guy I am: Google; James Hetfield & Kirk Hammett)

I read your blog for this reason! You can tell a story that make me laugh like crazy. Good luck with your training.

Beth please take a look at the two times you posted. (I'll wait!) You must be on dial-up, it took you four minutes to look up what happens on Sept. 12Th? I'm sure you just forgot to tell us you knew in the first post! (LOL) Training is going well, and thx for your support. You can look at the comments from "The evidence, your honor" post for more info!

in a repeat of Tyson v. Douglas circa 1990, GET3 has KO'ed an unprepared favorite. I had completely forgotten the impending return of all things Metallicky. Well, not all things, I just didn't remember the release date. You win, big guy! Lunch is on me.

We might not be able to agree on drivers, but we can agree on music. I too await the release of Mission. No need for violence just the need for the old style metal!
