A text conversation between Hulk and me last night:
Hulk: I'm sitting in a bar and they're playing Sleeping Beauty's song.
Me: I just wanna use your love toniiiiight!
Hulk: I don't blame you....Now I'm re-living the summer of '69. Those were the best days of my life.
Me: Where the hell ARE you, the WSAM Bar and Grille?
(WSAM was the top 40 AM radio station from our childhood. Trust me. This was a hilarious line. However, Hulk took forever to write back. So I wrote:)
Me: Don't you remember WSAM?
Hulk: Yes, of course. That's the station that played Gears hockey games.
(sighhh)
Hulk: I'm still bummed that Jimmy quit and Jodie got married, but now I'm rocking the Kasbah.
Me: You have got to get out of that effing bar. Of course, I'm listening to my Thomas Kinkade Christmas clock, so who am I to judge?
Hulk: I can't leave. I just requested every Ratt song ever recorded so I have to stay for that. Also, pour some sugar on me.
Me: IN THE NAME OF LOVE! Come on fatten me up. That'd be redundant. Are you there for some kind of sports watching?
Hulk: Yep...watching the bowl games.
Me: I want you to know I have any clue what that means. I mean, are you watching bowling? Are people throwing bowls? Is this some sort of pottery event?
Hulk: College football games. Purdue v. Western Michigan & NC State v. blooo de blooo de blooo blooo blooo...
Me: I don't see what bowls have to do with football.
Hulk: Geez. They just call them "bowl games." If you do well in football your team gets to go to a bowl game.
Me: Well, that makes no sense. They should try to make more sense, if you ask me.
Hulk: It makes as much sense as paying for dog day care. Damn, now Johnny's working on the docks and livin' on a prayer.
(Fortunately for us all, I went to bed at this point.)
