I heard this song by Warren Teagarden on the radi-adi-o, and figured I'd post the video:

By the time this post hits teh t00bz, I'll be sleeping off one of my trademark yerba mate fueled all-nighters (got savvy about the "post options"... uh... option). Yeah, I wasn't joking when I wrote that October kicks my ass, and starting right off the bat with an overnight "double" sets the tone for the weeks of ass-kickery to come.

Maybe it's the sleep-deprivation which makes me compare Messers Teagarden and Cole, but I'll let the commentariat judge for themselves.

I'd never seen either until now. Thanks, BBBB.

I listened to both while doing some housework. :) Yes, they are very similar!

Hope all is going well at work!
