I would buy \\\"Songs I Hate,\\\" too. And then sing along really loudly and sarcastically.

Also, my personal get-that-out-of-my-head song is Black Sabbath\\\'s \\\"Iron Man.\\\" My friend Chris sang that to me for about two years in high school and now I am immune to it\\\'s stuck-in-the-head powers and can use it to evict any other song which tries. :)

Look out, Nebraskanista in the room.

The show was wonderful. Hilarious performance, Geo.
It sounded like you were really having fun and the D*C audience was loving it. Nice job.

I really enjoyed the Twitter Song. I missed a bunch of them somehow. The \\\"dolphin\\\" tweet and the \\\"tai chi\\\" tweet were good ones! The \\\"Grease\\\" tweet was hilarious!

(captcha - Gilbert Debacle. I guess that fight didn\\\'t work out they way you thought!)

Many many excellent moments in this podcast, but the phrase \\\\\\\"butter tent\\\\\\\" is what stayed with me all day. Wonderful performance!

I would totally buy \\\"Songs I Hate\\\" by George Hrab. ;-)

Great show! First time, second time and probably third time as well.

Runzas are called bierocks in the generic form. Yes, this means someone coined the term \\\"runza\\\" and named the eatery thusly.

Everyone was too polite apparently to correct you, the honored guest. Kearney is pronounced \\\"CAR-knee.\\\" Other Nebraska places of note pronunciation-wise are Beatrice (bee-AT-riss) and Norfolk (NOR-fork). Not that the lattter two would really matter as they are nowhere near Kearney.

I spent a while in TV in Nebraska and always heard about it from the natives if one of the anchors from out of town would mess up placenames.

Geo,

Awesome to see you at Dragon*Con, in perfect form as usual. I don\'t get to see you in concert much, living in the south, so it\'s always great to catch a live show. Keep up the awesome work!

recaptcha was named tracheas. I only have the one. Should I name it?
