YOU KNOW HOW, WHEN YOU MOVE, YOU DISCOVER INTERESTING THINGS IN YOUR DRAWERS AND CLOSETS?
Well, sometimes "interesting" is the wrong word, but...
(Thanks to the drawers of former Herald research goddess, Liz Donovan)

Oh. My. God.
The Rock Bottom Remainders have got to cover this.

And, hey, just how far into Liz's drawers are we going to get?
Posted by: wiredog | July 08, 2009 at 04:07 PM
Wow!
It would have been a darned shame to have inadvertantly thrown that one out, huh? What was that originally produced for? It actually is pretty good, except for the fact that newspapers aren't usually big on jingle-type audio promotions.
Oh yeah.....thanks Gerald.

Oh dear Lord. Who is this???

Does Gerald deliver the Herald to NC? I thought it was kind of catchy but when I started playing it my lab got up and left the room. Everybody's a critic.

Funny thing nursecindy, "we" were just talking about you, so...
OT
Here is some proof that Miami is actually a pretty darn nice place to be. IF you happen to be at about 1500 feet. But seriously, 39+ years here for me and I haven't been shot yet!

You were talking about moi? I hope it was good. Those pictures are amazing. Miami is a beautiful place. The water is so clear. I lived in Fort Walton Beach for about 3 years and I remember how white the sand was and the water was such a clear blue. Great pictures. Thank you! Siouxie, which one of those McMansions is yours? I wouldn't mind living in that house on Biscayne Bay.

Thanks for the aerial tour of Miami, Brian. Beautiful.
I think I saw Michael and Fiona on Miami Beach.

Um...right next to Pat Riley's, cindy. What a house, huh???
Posted by: Siouxie | July 08, 2009 at 04:55 PM
Siouxie, as a semi-native....do you remember The Wackenhut Castle? That's what used to be in the big empty lot behind Riley's place.
Posted by: Brian | July 08, 2009 at 04:58 PM
I sure do. WOW. I guess Pat didn't his neighbors storming the castle.

From the inaugural and (as it happened) last episode of "Everglades Home Companion."
Who pronounces Herald as "Hear-ald?"

judi...
Its funny how you have your mp3 alert attached. At my office, I can't upgrade to newer versions of things like Media Player or Roxio or whatever, without special memos from The Pope or higher ups. But when your file started, up popped a message to download the upgrade...yes or no... So I hit "yes" and it automatically upgraded me without needing to lower the firewall. (All that kind of tech talk makes me giddy!) So thanks twice for that post!!

Oh dear Lord. Who is this???
Rochester Slim. I know, because it says so right in the URL. He's from Dave's neck of the woods, according to his website.

Wow. A minute and 22 seconds was all I could get through. I hope the ending didn't include top-secret instructions for robbing Fort Knox, or something.

Catchy, in its aural hemorrhage-ie sort of way.

I knew they were getting desperate for sales in the newspaper industry, but I never knew it was THIS bad.
Posted by: KJP | July 08, 2009 at 07:34 PM
I got off the couch, turned off the TV and bought newspaper.
You guys saved my life.

nursecindy, my labrador left the room, too. IANMTU
*snork* @ "the problem is...people don't read no more."
Yeah, they don't talk good no more either.
Someone should force Barry Manilow to listen to that over and over, so he'd know how it feels to suffer like that.

Annie, if we did that to BM, Amnesty International would probably have us arrested. Water boarding would look like a day at Disney World after that.

Why read when you can download .mp3 files instead?

When it first started, I thought jokingly that it sounded like it was going to lead up to an altar call. And damned if it didn't. The only thing he left out was "every eye closed, every head bowed."
