  • Wow--- just WOW, Brad. It is going to be hard to top this one.

  • Watcha mean, Voyager?

    The fact that some doofus used his own baby daughter to shoplift beer of all things (It would have been a different story if it was diapers or formula) or my bastardization of the CDB classic?

    Thanks for reading.

  • Brad, what I mean is who could be so incomparably stupid attempting to pull off this heist. He was beginning early training for the baby in a life of crime.

    Except he probably had a craving for a cold one and left his wallet home in another pair of pants (or something like that).

    As to the music, couldn't say. Charlie Daniels ain't my cup of tea.

  • Get with Chris harris and find that camera she used to do the SELive in short videos and find a killer Karaoke track of the tune. . .

    I want to see Brad perform this song in a future blog this month!

  • Perhaps, you didn't know this Bushman_212, but I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. I'm the kind of guy who lip syncs at church.

    That being said, if we were to make a video it might take me a couple weeks just to grow a beard comparable to Mr. Daniels (hehehe... right).

    And let's not even talk about That Hat. It's huge and has to be custom made for Mr. Daniels. I think that may be the one think we have in common. We both have 20 gallon heads.

  • Wasn't there another two syllable name you could have used Bradley?

  • Now don't take it personal, professor_bubba. I just like the name Bubba. I've been calling one of my co-workers whose a native of Brooklyn, New Yawk, Bubba for years (he calls me Billy Bob).

    To be honest Bubba was the first name that came to mind and I ran with it. I suppose I could have used Rufus or Delbert just as easily.

    By the way, the actual first name of the doofus who tried to steal the beer was Michael. I don't think it has the proper ring. That's why the song was "inspired" by actual, true events.
