The Half Hour of Power

"I'm not making this up, Tom" 

Love the Bouncy House/Staten Island Mall woman on a leash stories Mike brought up.

Tom should have a 10 minute segment on the main show where Mike brings in his cutting edge news items and also rumination a such as the mature MILF/young Granny topic

Mike should have given you props for the Pynchon info, Epic.

I would have given props if I remembered where I first saw it. I can't remember stuff like that. I'm a sponge. Stuff is coming in at all angles.

Does it come out at all angles as well?

[B_Buster]

Of course!

Tom, Dudio, Mike.....the song is called "Sadeness" by the German group Enigma. All the lyrics are in Latin and French:

"Procedamus in pace
In nomine Christi, Amen Let us go forth in peace
In the name of Christ, So be it
Cum angelis et pueris,
fideles inveniamur We shall find the faithful in the
company of angels and children
Attollite portas, principes, vestras
et elevamini, portae aeternales
et introibit rex gloriae
Qius est iste Rex glorie? Lift up ye heads o ye glorious gates,
and be ye lifted up ye everlasting doors,
and the king of glory shall come in.
Who is the king of glory?
Sade, dis-moi,
Sade, donnes-moi Sade tell me
Sade give me
Procedamus in pace
In nomine Christi, Amen
Shall we proceed in peace
In the name of Christ, Amen

Sade, dis-moi
Qu'est-ce que tu vas chercher?
le Bien par le Mal
la Vertu par le Vice
Sade, dis-moi, Pourquoi l'evangile du Mal?
Quelle est ta religion, Ou sont tes fideles?
Si tu es contre Dieu, tu es contre l'Homme
Sade tell me
what is it that you seek?
The rightness of wrong
The virtue of vice
Sade tell me why the Gospel of evil ?
What is your religion? Where are your faithful?
If you are against God, you are against man

Sade dit moi pourquoi le sang pour le plaisir ?
Le plaisir sans l'amour.
N'y a t'il plus de sentiment dans le culte de l'homme ?
Sade tell me why blood for pleasure?
Pleasure without love?
Is there no longer any feeling in man's Faith?
Sade, es-tu diabolique ou divin? Sade are you diabolical or divine?
Sade, dis-moi
Hosanna
Sade, donnes-moi
Hosanna
Sade, dis-moi
Hosanna
Sade, donnes-moi
Hosanna Sade tell me
Hosanna
Sade give me
Hosanna
Sade tell me
Hosanna
Sade give me
Hosanna
In nomine Christi, Amen In the name of Christ, Amen"

That is supposed to be either the Marquis de Sade talking to himself, or a monk doing the questioning.

I kept waiting for Tom to hang up on the Beach Boys guy with that woman talking in the background.

The Best Show has developed an appreciation for prog-rock that I've yet to join.  I recently bought a copy of Yes' Fragile from the dollar bin of my local used record store.  Other than the two songs I already knew and liked ("Roundabout" and "Long Distance Runaround"), I could barely make it through the album once.  On the other hand, I also gave Drama another try - the one Yes album I used to own - and it actually sounds pretty good.  Maybe I need to try again.

I find that being very drunk helps make the prog rock go down easier if you're not already inclined towards enjoying it, I listened to like three Rush albums one night and enjoyed them because I had been hitting the sauce since early that afternoon.

I had a similar experience once while camping. It didn't stick, though.

Was there a HHOP on October 20th?

[B_Buster]

Yes.

[erg79]

From the Boston guy's call, I never heard the song as "apples and tomatoes," but Apples and Bananas instead:

[Krokodil_Gena]

HHOP needs more weirdo calls. I'd love to see people do the "Hang up the Phone" prank on Tom. I know he would not tolerate any nonsense, but it would be interesting to see somebody try.

[Carver]

That was quite the creepy laugh on that guy.

[cowboydan]

Hope that toiletmouth film student calls up again. I find him invigorating, as I'm sure does AP Mike.
