*waving lighter back and forth in the air*

Blogger, humorist, and now actor and singer…is there nothing you can’t do? You had me in tears with your compelling portrayal of Capt. Kirk and your liquid silk voice…wow.

Your forever stalker,
Diamond :0)

Pure magic… one would think that only Kirk could get brainwashed by a kitchen fixture. Scotty never would of.

Brent,

Will you pimp my band too? It’s called Jagged Catheter.

Wait … What’s with that look? Why does everyone wince at me like that?

The audacity of Youtube is that it actually had the nerve to ask me if I wanted to replay that.

That was beautiful, man. Brought a tear to my eyes.

I don’t know who this Guinevere person is, but she is going down!

All day yesterday I couldn’t get that song out of my head, it was driving me nuts! thank you! lol! :)

I’m thinking I may just have to purchase “Narrow Stairs” next month. Any front man that idolizes Jack Kerouac is worth a listen.

What is with the absurdly long intro to that song. Its like,”Yeah, nice guitar and stuff, but could you start singing”? Or did the words take with the Guinevere chick?

I had my phaser set to ‘kill’. Is that a problem?

On a side note I must say your acting is as melodramatic as William Shatner but his singing is better.

Mr. Tamborine Man…

Maybe she’s Queen Guinevere, wife of King Arthur (and Sir Lancelot’s lover…shhhh…).

Don’t be jealous darling, I stopped loving her long ago whereas our love will continue for as long as you have that handy light fixture thing.

Thank you, you are too kind.

If I were only a bit more opportunistic I might mention that there are other examples of my acting and singing available for purchase at the DangerCouch Store.

Fortunately for all of us, I am not that shallow.

Yes, Scotty would most certainly hold out for a Twinky.

That just hurts to read.

As always you are on the cutting and occasionally painful edge of entertainment.

Brent April 15, 2008 at 11:53 am

It asked me if I wanted to embed it into the very fabric of my site.

I did.

(In case the suspense was elevating your blood pressure.)

Brent April 15, 2008 at 11:55 am

Thank you, I hope you enjoy your stay.

Brent April 15, 2008 at 12:00 pm

That would explain the whole past tense thing.

Well Terri, when you accept the responsibility of Living Internet Resource, you have a duty to hand out the horribly addicting along with the harmless.

It’s not pretty, but it’s part of the job.

Mine too, I couldn’t get that song out of my head with a vacuum cleaner.

Reply

Brent April 16, 2008 at 6:22 am

So you’re saying that the mating cries of the elusive Manhattan Yeti top us both?

That’s just sad.

Brent April 16, 2008 at 6:24 am

You should hear the new one, I Will Possess Your Heart which can be found on YouTube, 5 minutes of intro, 3 minutes of lyrics.

I still like it.

Reply

Brent April 16, 2008 at 6:26 am

I’ll have to check out the Kerouac connection, I’ve always wondered where he got his observational style of lyric writing.

Reply

Chris non-C April 16, 2008 at 2:04 pm

It turns out that was the one I was listening to. I liked it once I finally got through to lyrics, but it was leaving me guessing too long.
