I Do Not Like that Muskrat Love song (but I always listen to it EVERYTIME)!

There are songs that you don’t like, but for some reason they are like the newest “In Search of Nessie/Big Foot/A Really Good Star Wars Video Game” show, you get hooked and can’t walk away.

Muskrat Love is one of those things. I haven’t taken the time to see if songs about animal love are even legal, but I will keep listening and take the risk of PETA coming to my house (hopefully they send pretty ladies directly after a photo shoot).

So, I was on http://grooveshark.com (It’s like youtube for music) and then it happened, I typed M-U-S-K-R-A-T L-O-V-E and there it was. Ny audio nemesis – Muskrat Love

Muskrat Love by Captain & Tennille on Grooveshark

recorded by a duo that created some of the catchiest pop/synth songs in the 70’s, Captain (Not a real Captain. I think he found the hat on sale, or something) and Tennille.

Now, if that was the only version, that would be bad enough, but the cooly cruel Grooveshark drags you deeper into its web of awful (ly good) 70’s novelty hits. C&T weren;t the first to record this Amorous Ondatra song, here is the original by Willis Alan Ramsey

Getting Ready to Go Somewhere; Men .vs Women

I love Women (especially my lovely, very, very, very understanding wife), but there is a huge difference between how long it takes a guy to get ready, compared to a gal.

Let’s say it’s a dinner for an elderly family member’s birthday. The guy feverishly searches through the mysterious mound at the bottom of the closet of; shirts that don’t fit anymore, MC Hammer pants mchammerpants and two different kinds of flip flops to reveal “The Really Good Shoes”. The guy feels like Indiana Jones Indiana-Jones discovering a lost treasure, then spies a Motely Crue headband motley+crue he wore to the concert he took Ellen “Best Cherry Stem Tie-r in the whole school” cherrystem Smith to. His mind goes back to High School and all the fun he had.

“Are you ready to go, honey?” The voice of a woman running around breaks him from his day dreaming, “Yes,” he says. “You’d better be. We don’t want to be late!” Annoyed, he responds “Alright!”

Shoes – Part 1

Men and Women view shoes differently. Women own lots and lots of shoes.

christinashoecloset

When a shoe closet has its own;
Zip Code,
Bathroom, and
Search and Rescue Team – there is a problem

Now, Men love Women in stylish (That’s Latin for High Heel) shoes. Here is how Men dream of the TSA at the airport…

Men would fly so much more and hide all kinds of water bottles all over. Anyway, back to shoes.

Normally, Men only own a few types of shoes;
Tennis Shoes (Funny, Men own these type of shoes but never play tennis.)
Work Out Shoes (See comment above and insert Work Out for Tennis)
One Flip Flop (Where the other one is a mystery, until you move – or your significant other makes you clean up your bedroom, then you find 2 more. The mystery never ends…)
Work Shoes
Church Shoes (These should be Hole-y, though. See what I did there. :pause: Okay, let’s move on then.)
Shoes you paint in (These used to be your Tennis or Work Out Shoes, but now they look like they’ve been in a Tug of War with a Pit Bull and The Alien from “Alien”.

Weird shoes (You don’t know why Men own them, they just do)

Men are Dumb, an Intro

Hi! I am Jeff. I’m a married man, and I am dumb. Now, this sounds like I’ve joined a Dumb Guy Anonymous group, but to my knowledge there is none, til now.

menaredumbanonbanner

I’ll start my own, and let you read the minutes each week (That’s Latin for blog posts. See what I did there). This blog is a way for me to be honest about my (and other guy’s) dumbness and try to help men everywhere stay out of the doghouse. Sure, we may discuss some of the cra- I mean, different ways that women walk through life with all their rules, but we will be nice about it. Right, guys?

The name of the blog if Men are Dumb, and I Should Know. The reason for the title is I thought I was the smartest man aliveuntil I got married.

Men discovered; The Wheel, Fire, but still can’t remember to put the toilet seat down.

It all started with an Intervention with my fiancé, her top 5 MySpace friends and her tearful Mom trying to explain much of what I thought was cool (a choir of Big Mouth Billy Bass fishes singing “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” as people walked into my apartment, building a replica of Disneyland out of empty soda cans, and claiming that I was “going green” because my dog licked my plates clean after dinner, etc), wasn’t.

So, welcome to my blog, and I hope I can help other men not be as dumb, and do my best to help women not sigh and shake their heads at men (so much).

New World Army an Intro

In 2006, what began as a Star Wars audio drama script morphed into an original Sci-Fi story about a band of rebels fighting to survive in an world ruled by robots. New World Army is a Audio Drama that brings together great voice talent, editing and serialized story-telling taking cues from Lost, Battlestar Galactica and The Terminator.

New World Army was initially released in 2007, but we are re-releasing it to expose it to a new audience. Enjoy.
