Pop culture obsession

Jen and I have spent more time together over the last few months than in the previous 14 years.  A recurring joke is to look over at the other and ask "How was your day, dear?  Did you do anything exciting?"

During one of our recent marathon car sessions (more on that later, once I'm back on track with the blogging) we heard the song "Easy Lover" by Phil Collins and Philip Bailey.  Good grief, even this song has a wikipedia entry.

During the song, Jen looked at me and asked "Was Phil Collins the Timbaland of the '80s?"  We debated it for awhile but failed to come to a conclusion.  Jen suggested that I blog it and see what the assembled brain trust thinks.

So without further ado, we have the 2nd SavedBySherpa Poll.  (To your right, there, Sparky)

I hate to be a critic, but technically this is the 3rd SavedbySherpa Poll.
1 - How many clothes am I wearing?
2 - Which charachter do I look like with my beard?
3 - Phil and Timbaland.

But really - who's counting? :)

Not that I am a perfectionist or anything . . .

Miss you guys!!!

Ha! Thanks for keeping me honest, Amy. Sorry that we're missing out on all of the parties/holidays.

I realized that but was going to let you slide. Have to hand it to
Amy for calling you on it. D
We forgive you though.. Bound to be jet lag.

This made me a sad panda today when I did a reply all.

I'd have to go with an act like Cameo as the Timbaland of the eighties. Of course I consider a lot of the music of the eighties to be worthy of interrogation use on Guantanamo detainees.

Synyrd!

Disclaimer: I consider most eighties music a worthy interrogation tactic on Guantanamo detainees.

Justin,

I'm surprised it just started happening - I guess folks think I've just been ignoring their mail for the last 6 months. I'm sure no one would think that, though :)
