BS: MY version of HELL

26 Feb 09 - 10:23 PM (#2576931)
Subject: BS: MY version of HELL
From: olddude

My version of Hell consists of stuck in a room listening to non stop Kenny G and given only Jello to eat ... wait wait ... that is not hell that is my local hospital ... why would anyone do that to sick people huh. Went to visit a friend ...

Now I am not proud of the fact that I don't like Kenny G ... but
I don't like Kenny G. I would rather listen to my dog passing gas then Kenny G .. (I apologize) but at least with dog gas understand the smell

And Jello what is that all about, why every time anyone gets sick they shove that stuff down ya like it is going to make you better... well it aint I am here to say ...I am an expert on it and it never made me better, nor did listening to Kenny G brighten up my day even a tad

What is with that little sax anyway ... geeeeeeeze
sorry to all the Kenny G fans ...
I fully expect to be burned for this, I will take my meds as long as I don't have to eat jello

I have to agree in part, at any rate. Jell-O because when you pass something more substantial than gas (depending on your condition and/or meds) it can be quite painful or even dangerous to your health. I will make no excuses for the vapid music. One man's Hell is another man's heaven, I guess.

When I had a long stay in the hospital I had friends and family smuggle in fast food and other goodies or I would have surely died!

There was a little sax in the hospital? Just a little? I've worked in hospitals and there was sax going on all the time...doctors, nurses....

Oh. SAX.

About Jello. It's mostly sugar and water and easily digested. It's also cheap. Personally I'd like it served in the brain mold, perhaps in different colors. Green brains, blue brains.... Jello in anatomical molds: perfect for a hospital.

I have one of those molds. Never used it because I figured I had to make gray Jello, and I couldn't figure out the right formula.

You are scaring me .. so I have chrons disease, every time it acts up, yup go home Dan .. I think you need to eat jello and clear soup for a few days and take your meds ... so went up to see my bud stuck in the hosp.

then doc says we better scope ya. Now I don't know how many of you had the old roto router scope thing .. not fun ... when they do it they pump ya full of air so aferwords in recovery you toot like a steam boat. So last year I am laying in recovery virtually naked, tooting like a cheap Kenny G CD .. and this young nurse comes in and says ... Hi Dan you don't know me, I am your new neighbors ... just moved into the house behind your office, would you like some jello

you guess it Spaw would be proud of me ... I let out a semi blow
can't look she or her husband in the eyes since

I had to ask Jacqui who Kenny G is, and now that I know I have to agree with Old Dude. The saxophone sounds like a giant kazoo to me.

Jello aint so bad if you slather a lot of whipped cream on it.

My Hell would be, stuck in a room full of rappers and rock heads.Then, at the break, one of those women screechers that you hear in the supermarket. They sound like a hog caught in a barbed wire fence.
Then, as a treat, listening to George Bush speeches.

The old joke is what did Kenny G say when he steped off the elevator?

"That place ROCKS"

I was draged to a Kenney G concert one night. Free tickets. He's learned how to do something I understand is called circular breathing. Forcing air our of your mouth while breathing through your nose. It's an old trick. But it enables you to hold a note for 5 or ten minutes. Or even longer. Well ol Kenny had to prove his point at leat three times that night. And the crowd went NUTS. I kept thinking - hasn't this stadium of jazz fans never heard of Roland Kirk?

I agree although I think I could take all the Jello in the world before I could take one Kenny G. CD. Kenny G. is without the Devil. On a very good note I heard on CNN yesterday that Muzak music company (the company responsible for most of the elevator music and music you hear while on hold)is almost bankrupt. YAY!!! finally and up side to this nasty economy. That stuff is mus-yak. Watch Kenny G. come to the rescue witha financial bailout for them.

I also agree with Sinsull. A coffeeless world full of Jello and Kenny G. that is without a doubt hell in my book.

Maybe I'm the pervert here, but in my opinion the human female bosom is the most beautiful thing in all of nature. It is we latter day puritans who have made them obscene.

This thread brings to mind a concert Jacqui and I attended recently. First we cringed; then we laughed; then we left for the sake of those around us. Pure torture.

Kendall,
There is a reason someone goes into a topless coffee bar and it is not in admiration of the female breast. Places like that attract the worst sleaze in the world and those living nearby have to deal with it.
The owner of the Nude Juice Bar in NYC was horrified that the "element" from Jackson Heights was planning to show up by the busload in his gated community. He had utter contempt for us and couldn't believe we would even notice his sleazy little enterprise.
When it threatened to tarnish his own neighborhood, he changed his mind.
The human body is beautiful. It should be respected.
Mary, the Prude.

Regarding the beloved Kenny G: There was an article, with interview, in our local paper a couple of months ago. Kenny was asked what music he listened to himself. He replied that he never listens to any music except his own. I'm still trying to get my mind around that; I've never heard any other performer say anything like that in my life.

I am completely in accord with Kendall's respect for the Divine Curve. As the Founder and Chief Missionary of the Temple of the Golden Globes, I can say with some authority that there are hardly any objects in the Universe of more inherent beauty. The fact that they come in matched (more or less) pairs is sure proof of the existence of a boutniful and generous Divinity that shapes our ends, mishew them how we may, not to put too fine a point on things.

I have heard a bunch of artists say that about only listening to thier own music. I don't understand that at all. I had one tell me he didn't want any outside influence just his own creativity. I laughed and probably made him mad but sometimes if you say something stupid you deserve to be made mad lol. I don't understand that at all. To me it is arrogance. I think Kenny probably doesn't listen to other artists music because then he has to come to terms with how lame his own is.

I'm with you kendall, the human female breast IS one, if not THE loveliest things in the world. And come on! There is nothing perverse about it. It was the first thing I truly recognized this side of the womb. We are all predisposed to find it, admire it, love it and grow from it.   Talk about mana!

The shape is lovely and has fascinated artists through the ages. It is repeated in form over and over again in nature. It has a velvety texture, just the right amount of turgor and resilience and the nipple is alive and responsive to touch. What's not to love!

Without the breast and the wonderful species, the human female, who bares, bears it, this would be a hellish world indeed

I like tits. But, I just don't see the appeal of titty bars or titty cafés. As a young and curious lad, I performed extensive research, every spare moment I had, which included investigating such venues of exposure when I was in the big city. Cover charges, expensive drink and food... nice tits, yes, but, "water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink". Essentially, useless as tits on a bull.

And, I certainly understand SINS's viewpoint. Such has no place in a residential neighbourhood or on Main Street. I am disgusted by a situation we have in Moncton, a strip club across the street from Moncton High School. I am no prude, but, not in my back yard, thank you.

Just a minute - I'll go look him up:

From Wikipedia:

Rodney Crowell (born August 7, 1950) is a Grammy Award-winning musician, known primarily for his work as a singer and songwriter in country music.

Crowell was born in Houston, Texas to James Walter Crowell and Addie Cauzette Willoughby. He is considered to be part of both the alternative country and the mainstream country music camps[citation needed]. He is a contemporary of Steve Earle and, like Earle, was also influenced by the songwriting greats Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt. Rodney played guitar and sang for three years in Emmylou Harris' "Hot Band".

By the way he was *not* married to a Mandrell but Rosanne Cash. Humpf.

My room in hell is full of people playing frantic non-melodic jazz on saxophones. Odd how many hells have saxophones.

If nudity were legal no one would notice after a few weeks, and we might actually get a generation without the Victorian hang ups.

Reminds me of Homer and Jethro singing their version of Wildwood Flower. ...as a stripper she thought that her fortune would be found,
But she ran into trouble and then she was gone,
Instead of saying "take it off" they hollered, "Leave it on".

Have to agree with you on Kenny G. But the worst thing - really truly my idea of hell - would be an endless loop playing Whitney Houston singing "and Aaaaayyyyyyyy wiiiillll alwaaaayyyyyysss laaaarrrve yoooouuu". Or that song from Titanic. That kinda stuff.

...being one of those people who are made to apologize to Rush Limbaugh.

Its become a sort of a rite of passage to be a true Republican.

Yesterday, one of the office phones went wonkie and produced an itchy staticky noise like the one I used to get with dial up computer connections. I thought would explode. Like nails on a blackboard. I wasn't alone. Someone unplugged the guy's phone. He wasn't happy but at least no one was murdered.

Pop singers singing folk songs and applying pop singing standards to them. Makes me very cross and grumpy. I think I am becoming a militant ballad singer!

I got a brief preview a few weeks ago, they did an MRI scan on my brain (Think holding perfectly still with your head in a washing machine) they put special headphones on me to heep my head perfectly still. They played Pop Music through the headphones for the ENTIRE 25 minutes the scan took, but not just Pop Music, but a Pop Radio station so the in between the "songs" there was some inane, irepressibly cheerful MORON making "small talk" (as in VERY small in content). If That was Hell, I would not be very surprised!!!!

When they stick you in that little tube to do the MRI
it is also unwise to eat a bean burrito before going in ...
