We lost our precious Barkley a few weeks back. I was too upset to blog about it , it was just too painful. The house was so lonely Mom and I decided we needed a new dog. Erick was in China and sent us a link to an ad for Cocker puppies. There were two females and one male, we decided on the male and before long we decided we wanted a brother and sister. So we welcome Eleanor and Rigby to the family!!!!!!!

Rigby is playful and into everything!
Eleanor is equally as playful especially when Rigby riles her up!

They do everything together!
Rigby will be a jumper and a counter surfer! Here he is in flight!
"Look into my Eyes! I am Eleanor your new dog!"

Time for a puppy nap!

We are glad we kept a brother and sister together!

Keep your eyes here for tons of pictures and videos to come!!!!!!!!!!!!

How I heard it!

Mis-heard lyrics are always fun. As a child when I heard something and did not know the context or even some of the words I sang them as I heard them.

Here are some of the funny ones:

Steve Miller Band's "Jet Airliner" Lyric: "Big Old Jet Airliner, Don't carry me too far away".
At this point in my life I had not heard the term Airliner, I heard airplane but not Airliner.
I had at this point met someone named John, Fred and Lionel (from "The Jeffersons").
So I thought this was Steve Miller asking his friends not to carry him too far away, so I heard it as:
"Big John, Fred and Lionel, don't carry me too far away". If you sing it with those lyrics it makes sense. My brothers still rag on me about that one 30 years later.

Fleetwood Mac's "Rhiannon" Lyric: "Rhiannon,Rhiannon,Rhiannon,Rhiannon"
Ok at this point I had not met any one named Rhiannon. Becky? Sure, Carol? Sure, Rhiannon? Uh NO! So I thought the song was about someone unable to make up their mind, I heard the chorus as, "Yeaaaaaaaaaaa, No, Yeaaaaaaaaaa No, Yeaaaaaaaaaaa, No"

Elton John's "Your Song" Lyric "It may be quite simple" This one is forgivable and I think what I thought he said was quite poetic on my part. Elton(Actually Bernie Taupin) is talking about his love for a woman (or Man) and that this song was his way of expressing it. So I heard the lyric as "It may be a quiet symbol". A quiet symbol of his love, an easy, quiet song. Am I the crazy one here?

The Bee Gee's "You should be Dancing" Lyric: "Whatcha doin on your back?" I guess I never really listened that hard to the lyrics. I thought there was no vocal at that point beyond a kind of scat. So I heard it as "Skibbaditatditat, Ohhh, Skibbaditatditat, you should be dancin Ya" Yea I know, but this blog is called "Dave's Warped View"!

Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" Lyric: "There is no pain you are receding" Needless to say when listening to PF I was usually comfortably numb myself. But it made sense in the context of the lyrics for me to have heard, "There is no pain you are receiving". Oh well, I can't explain you would not understand, this is just how I am.

Boston's "More than a Feeling" Lyric: "Its more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)" Now this is a mighty mushmouth song, I can't understand half the lyrics because Brad does not enunciate! Plus his voice is going through so many echoes and modulators how could you understand him? When this song came out I was a child that used to stay up late and watch TV. So I heard the lyric as "More than a feeling, well I'm livin' on Soul Train" Thanks Don Cornelius!

Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water" Lyric: "Smoke on the Water" My best guess is, due to the way the lyric was sung, I heard it as "Slow coming home, Yah" I guess I didn't care there was a clue in the following lyric, "Fire in the Sky".

More To Come.............

"Dinner Impossible" Chef Irvine Discredited/Fired

Chef Robert Irvine from the Food Network show "Dinner Impossible" has admitted his resume was slightly embellished. The Food Network is looking for a new host for the show for next season but is honoring the contract and finishing out the season that is currently in production with Chef Irvine. Click Here for the details!

The way I see it, what's done is done! Chef Irvine has proven himself every episode by not only completing his tasks, but also giving an entertaining, uniquely British point of view on cuisine. His skills cannot be denied. When they do replace him the new host will only be emulating Irvine and utilizing the Sous Chef that he trained. FN has already changed the opening montage for the show to reflect on his experience and triumphs on the show. That alone should tell them they still have someone who is unique and effective regardless of a few white lies he may have made to get ahead. Everyone does it! Come on!, the show is fun and informative, I will watch it with Irvine, but will think twice about viewing his replacement unless it's Gordon Ramsay.

The last installation of the "Next Food Network Star" had one of their finalists bow out of the competition because he lied about everything that made him a good candidate for the show. If he would have won (which he would have) he would have faked his way through a series of shows that would have been miles better than the boring, banal Mother that won. Open your mind FN it's not about ethics, it's about entertainment, information, and effectiveness.

Or as they say here is Texas:

"If it ain't' broke, don't fix it"!
