I was hoping that you would use a few of the product placements from Eminem so that I could relate my fantasy audition.

Let's pretend that you did....
11. "He could be working at Burger King, spitting on your onion rings"
Spoiler
The Slim Shady Song - Eminem
This one brings back memories of a Detroit audition long ago.

Trying to be hip with the locals, one of the brunette femal APs asked an auditioner, "Who is better: Kid Rock or Eminem?"

My fantasy dialog went something like this:

Brunette AP: So Panic, who is better: Kid Rock or Eminem
Panic: Eminem, of course!
B AP: Why?
Panic: Well, Enimem's lyrics are much cleverer. Besides, how could I respect a guy who married Pam Anderson 4 times?
B AP: What's wrong with Pam Anderson.
Panic: She's too blonde.
B AP: So, you don't like blondes?
Panic: Blondes are OK. I prefer brunettes with New York accents.
B AP: Well, here is a ticket to New York. You have to be at the next taping.
--------------------- the more likely response-----------------
B AP: Security! Get this loser out of here.

J.J. Cale Points:

I am starting to slowly wean myself off being so generous with the JJCP's, but there were a number of notable awardings in this game....

Pea didn't get the lifetime supply of JJC points Billy Mays promised her (Or the sliders), but since she did answer in the first 15 minutes, I gave her the max of 3.

Fanny got a JJC point for cracking me up by invoking the wrong Billy Joel video! The reuinion video if The Longest Time! Keeping the Faith is in the musical courtroom....

Mini gets 2 JJC points just for being mini... .which also means she wasn't being mini.... :P

Moonie got a JJC point for fessing up to being a Spoiler Virgin....

1000aire did NOT get a JJC point for correcting my Lola lyrics. He has apparently never heard the REAL version of this song before....

Sprots got a JJC point for invoking the creepy Burger King guy....

Melly got a JJC point for digging up a baseball reference from before I was born...

Fishie got a JJC point for dredging up Joe Namath/Suzy Kolber, a rare classic sports moment I was actually watching at the time....

Panic got 2 JJC points for telling us his audition fantasy, even if it did involve Eminem and Kid Rock....


Points:

Pea 2+3
HSoB 10
Fanny 22+1
plasticene 3
mini 16+2
moon 11+1
1000aire 11
mntetn 9

This has nothing to do with LS, but you can bypass Vince and get your
ShamWow at CVS!! I saw them there last week. Just in case anyone wants to save that
shipping and handling fee.

That is too funny.

Digital Underground played halftime at a Nuggets game last year. Humpty Hump is still rocking the Groucho glasses and the fuzzy hat!

Do they even still make Stroh's? I don't know if it was Tone or Marvin that came up with it, but it doesn't matter. Together they make magic!

Before He Cheats - Carrie Underwood (This song drives me up the wall)
I hate this song. Summer of 2006 I was going through some trauma and would go days without sleeping. Every third song during the Insomniac Video Block was Before He Cheats. Every second song was London Bridge and every first song was Sexyback. Coincidentally enough, I was thinking about those months yesterday after answering and, when I was driving home yesterday afternoon, they played Sexyback! Unlike BHC, I love Sexyback, because Timbaland is God's gift to music.

It would have been funnier if I'd gotten the right video and the wrong song. I realized this later yesterday because I kept singing The Longest Time and couldn't figure out why. When I was trying to come up with the title yesterday I was thinking of the diddy bop shades line and I think all the old reunion guys were wearing sunglasses at the end. Ha!

I was hoping for a JJC point for shattering your illusions about the Little Red Corvette, but this is even better!

Everyone should talk about the ShamWow! Only they should still buy it from me! And everyone should hijack that lame Billy Mays' threads! To talk about me and the ShamWow and the Slap Chop and the Graty!

I hear Erin says she wants "that blanket with sleeves." I need to get in on that Snuggie action now...
Wowwwwwwwwwww
