Today’s Music: House of Heroes – God Save The Foolish Kings
It’s Thursday, a special birthday day, but first let’s see what gems we have digested this week.
First, we learned of a special birthday boy. I can’t link to it (it was an email), but I can say that an especially shiny pair that passed on the word. The Lizzie one and her sparkling friend, Ginger.
I also learned that in a pinch, like when your s key ztops working, one can alwayz uze the z key. Oh, and happy birthday to Benzeknees.
This birthday thing amazes me. How do people find out whose birthday is when anyways. I am pretty sure nobody knows that my birthday is September 11 and I intend to keep it that way.
The really big news in the past week is actually today’s big news. Our blogging buddy El Guapo is having a birthday day. Yep,December 6. This Guapo is so famous, he even has a town named after him. Somebody must have gotten it for him on his last birthday. There is also an island in Mexico. So, my friends,, we are friends with a guy that has everything. Makes it easy to buy for him though. What do you get for the guy with everything? Easy, nothing, except a post or 20 in his honour. Or have a big party.
El Guapo is a pretty suave dude. One can always count on Friday and his latest musings. Always looked forward to.
We are now at the point in the post where we have a poll. This weeks poll is very simple, yet elegant. we need the answer to the eternal question, “What Should El Guapo Do Next?”
It is now time to wind up the musings on El Guapo’s birthday. I leave you with a couple of quick videos. The first is the only known video (without a bungee) of the famous dude, and he is doing what he really loves, playing the blues. The second is the newest dance craze, the El Guapo, funky sock is optional.
Love the dance. Happy Bday El Guapo!
I imagine the other one is on a dryer somewhere
Nicely done!
As was yours
Yay! Another great bday post!
Liked yours best
Now I have that song and dance stuck in my head!
My apologies, unless its a good thing, then you’re welcome.
That last video made me tired after 30 seconds!!! Thanks John!!
I only watched the first 30 seconds myself. Short attention span.
After our long association, even without having seen the videos, I’m pretty sure you’ve captured the essence.
(The one sock proves it.)
Tahnks so much John, for a fun memorable birthday!
You will be busy for a while I think. Enjoy. And happy birthday.
Interesting dance … but a great tribute. Happy Birthday Guapo!
Everybody needs a dance named after them. I am thinking the el guapo has a better sounding name than the John phillips though
Although the alternated leg warmers were pretty impressive, I want a pair of those bowling shoes. Not that i would wear them, but I want to see if they would power a lamp. Fab post!
Happy birthday, Guapstein.
Aren’t they great. I need a pair of skates just like them
Oh, that would be brill.
Got through the links on your post, now on to the reader and my email to hit what we’ve missed. Added a few new blogs to follow as well. A very good day.
I am so glad you joined in the foolishness. Have a wonderful evening. (Mentally does math to see if you are in the appropriate time zone for that to be correct. Ascertains it is a complete shot in the dark.)
It is dark and it is evening. Hope to talk again.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
And to you as well. It has been a good year on here hasn’t it.
Thanks for the birthday wishes John, I just saw this! Happy New Year too!
Same to you. Have a great year. Enjoy your stuff, glad I found you, gotta thank El Guapo for that.
