Oh, I am so going to have to convince my husband to knock it the hell off with the Babylon, especially since his friend who was part of my Babylon Hell Weekend is coming here soon.
And I concur with the James Blunt swipe, while we're at it...

WMR has been now been shut off during store operating hours, so no more Babylon for me!
I still have to put up with all those insane requests for the peanut butter & jelly song, though......

I personally think that they should play "It's a Small World" over and over again, but I know that Disney is particularly good at getting their royalties.

Just play it once every couple days: once you hear that dang song, it stays with you. Like fungus.

Speaking of checks, I think there are quite a few of you on this Bored who owe me some royalties for all the torturous posts you've made me withstand that strike at the very heart of what Our Lord Almighty holds so dear! When the Lord sends down a plague of All William Hung All The Time on your radios and evil iPods, you'll get the message and open up those wallets....

You are such a cunning linguist.

Let me edit that for you.
Please provide your checking account number and social security number and I will deposit the royalty fee directly to your account, you may keep 25% percent for forwarding the balance to Mr. Geldorf.

NONE!!! I drive them to fits of ecstasy!
(On a Disney note, Erin just came to me with her Jasmine costume, and she's finally put on enough weight that the pants don't fall right off. But she says it's itchy, so I don't have to worry that she'll want to wear it in the parks....)

Beware!
First it's the Jasmine costume at home, then it's the princess outfits at the parks!

She will wear Cinderella to the Princess Lunch, but she is very much Clothing Optional at home, so I think she will surrender to the comfort of cotton while in the parks themselves. And not just her undies, which is her favorite outfit of all...

Does she have any tatoos? She could give Tattooed Whore a run for her money.

Her brother tried to put a Naked Brothers Band tattoo from a package of Capri Sun on her when we were in Hawaii, but she balked, so he put it on my foot instead. So I left it there when we went to the beach just to embarass him. Because he's a teenager and all...

Yeah, right. You won't even sit still for toothbrushing. I can't see you going in for pain, Missy!
