We can be Invincible

[eggwards]

I won a Pat Benatar album from Larry (lfkbear) and Cheryl on Sirius OutQ this morning. I easily identified "Invincible" by Ms. Benatar as they were trying a name that tune game. I could have gone on and said, yes, and that was featured in the movie "The Legend of Billie Jean", but that would have been overdoing it. '80s for $100 please, Alex?

Of course I pulled the biggest faux pas you can make calling into a radio show...I left my radio on. The call screener didn't ask me to turn it down, and I had run into the other room to try to be away from the computer that was streaming it. I thought it was OK, but nope, here's the hosts telling me to turn it down, and I had to run, like a fool into the other room to do so. So much for the big OutQ debut. (I've been on radio before, though never nationwide). Still, I have free swag, and you don't!

I booked my flight for Bears in the Woods yesterday. It was cheaper to fly into Chicago than Madison, so I asked John if I could ride with him , and he's said yes (Through the intermediary, Randy, I'll have to call and re-confirm). $168 for practically the same flight I took last month for $305. Off season I guess. This is a good thing. Now we just need to get Chris up there as well!

I also sent in my reservation for Fiesta in January. Ahh, future travel. I started looking for airfare, and man, that's expensive. Hopefully there will be some cheaper rates soon, or maybe I should drive?

Since it was helpful to have my flight information in the journal last time, I'll put it behind a cut...

Hee hee hee! I heard you call in. Nice voice! Now that you are an accomplished radio personality we know you won't make similar mistakes in the future.

Have fun in the woods!

Congrats on winning the contest! I wish I could have heard you; would have been nice to have a voice to go with the face. It's hard for me to listen while at work because we've been so swamped. I did manage to call in yesterday morning to welcome Larry back, though. ;-)

I am sure eggwards would agreed with me on this. If you guys want to see and hear him (now, I'm talking high quality voice and pictures .. 30 fps) ... you should get a MAC. We were talking last night for a few minutes using a program called "iChat AV". It was so cool to be able to do that. I have to say...he has a great voice indeed and he is a SUPER NICE GUY. And on top of all that he is a MAC geek like my self.

Invincible is my favorite Pat Benatar song! I would have known it right away, too! :)
