We love Liz, we love Bruce, we love dogs and we REALLY LOVE this tune. Thanks to Brad for his always welcome counsel...

Meeting Across The River

Hey Tony, can you give me a few yucks
Tonight I’ll listen up while I ride
I take the metro through the tunnel
Listen to the podcast ‘til I come out the other side

Yeah Tone, Liz Clarke’s, she's the real thing
The Littles love it when she’s on
Sometimes she sighs, she don’t say anything
Writes of NASCAR’s romance
The word's been passed, you won’t give it a second glance

You gotta stay cool tonight, Tony
They’re checking if you’re fit for a canine
Don’t get your heart set on a puppy
‘Cause this dogs surely gonna outlive you this time

And lets be clear what you do for man’s best friend
Here, stuff this bag in your pocket
Don’t let your neighbors see you not picking up after him
And the dog is yours for just a while
He’ll revert when you die or go senile

Hey Tone, take him on your G5

    There are certain songs that take balls to cover, and if you don't nail it you can drive a truck through the hole you leave. John, you nailed it. Take a bow.

    Crying tear onto my laptop (what else would one cry besides tears?) The only downside is this trumps the jingle I was working on "Meeting About Your Liver"
