Those of you who have not yet stumbled across captoblivion should -- really, really, really should -- read this post recounting the saga of last weekend's trip to Virginia Beach for Digital racks.  Just be careful not to be drinking soda or anything hot when you read it, because spraying soda or hot coffee out of your nose is really not a good feeling.  The man could give Dave Barry a run for his money.

(And he has C.W. McCall's Wolf Creek Pass completely memorized, and can recite it at full speed.  But that's another story.)

And right at end of the whole damn show was a real nice tunnel, now wouldn'tcha know... Sign said clearance to the 12 foot line but the chicken's was stacked to 13-nine. We shot that tunnel at a hundred and ten, like gas through a funnel or eggs through a hen. We took that top row of chickens of thicker n' the scum of a Loosiana swamp...


Mmmmm.... I'm also rather fond of The ol' home filler up and keep on a truckin' cafe. The chorus girls on that one sound scrumptious. And Crispy Critters:

Boy lemme explain the situation to ya: A: you gettin me down. B: we got us a leash law here and C: you in the wrong town. You drop one string a beads in that there park you gonna see a whole lotta stars. You got fifteen seconds to get outta town boys, or we gonna blow ya to mars.
