My Friend, David Runnels
April 27th, 2009 by Romack















Last summer, I went to UMARMY with my good friends David and Karen Runnels - which was an absolute blast. While I was on the trip, I ran out of one of the most essential items packed in my travel bag - Electrashave. You see, friends - I have sensitive skin. If you ever see me walking around, or even going to church, with scruff on my face, it’s not because I don’t know how to shave, didn’t want to shave, or don’t know how to shave - it’s because it’s incredibly painful to shave. David was making a Wal-Mart run and asked if I needed anything. I asked him to pick up a bottle for me…and he came back with one - and even picked up the tab on it.

…and now, almost a year later, I have a little bit left in this bottle. I shave about three times a week, so it’s a pretty good bargain. I say all this to say - David Runnels is a true friend. He has warmed my heart and soothed my skin.

I am now a Rhapsody suscriber. Over the past couple of weeks, I've seen mislabeled music. But this is the best database/coding error yet! I wish I would have been smart enough to think this up...





















You are looking at the soundtrck for the movie Gridlock'd. You are also looking at Sesame Street albums. Little did you know the premise of the Gridlock'd move was absed on the adventures of Burt and Ernie on Sesame Street. That's one tough 'hood.

Another good thing gone wrong. The Frantics, Last Will and Temperment skit is a classic. So close your eyes or ignore the pirates, please.

How I miss the novelty music of Corky and the Juice Pigs. Here's a a little something for my fellow REM lovin' peeps.
