Oh so cute, right?

I'm confused by this inter-species relationship, but hey, Nature has no rules, as far as I know.

CARS

Photobucket

I'm currently doing my proper research, interviews, et al into the stale sock drawer that is my carpooling past. Until the carpool driver profiles come to light, here's this little gem. It's a little heavy on the dialogue sample, but nails the ambiance of 1980s nighttime driving beautifully. Not that I would know what that is firsthand as I didn't get behind the wheel for the first time until 1993. This wheel was attached to a Plymouth Voyager Minivan. In 1995 it was totaled in a car accident on the way home from band practice with my brother. We flipped over and rolled into some bushes. Neither of us were wearing a seatbelt. The only injuries involved a scrapped knee (me) and a sore neck (Alex). Alex had his guitar in his lap and only one string broke.

Carpoolin'

Photobucket
(Not a picture of my old carpool)

Hopped up on Apple Fritter, (which is the new Madeleine cookie I guess) I was remembering the days when my brother and I carpooled to and from grade school in the 80s. The people who drove us to school everyday were a very colorful band of characters that surely deserve to be immortalized on my blog. I would so something very gross to find out where they all are now.

So stay tuned, because I plan to introduce the group in a future entry, and from then on devote one entry to each driver I could remember. Thus is born my "80s Carpool Driver Bio" Series.

Sy Sperling on Gay Beach

Photobucket
Mr. "I’m not just the president, I’m also a client.”

Usually the celebrity guests on the Gay Beach are DJ Tedward's friends pretending to be someone else, but once in awhile he gets the real thing.

This time, he actually got Sy Sperling, the founder of Hair club for Men. The interview was pretty amusing and revealed Mr. Sperling to be a very cool guy. Skip to the end of the show and you can catch the talk, which even included some people who came off the street to thank Mr. Sperling for his work.
Listen to this by this Wednesday as the show will be replaced by a new episode.
