Best Walk-up Songs For Softball

Old guys like us have been giving that same speech for decades now. Only the names and cited evil genres have changed. You practically recited a lecture I got verbatim from a bible study teacher in 1981 when he caught me wearing an Ozzy shirt.

Edit: Not to say "the speech" doesn't have validity, it very well may (I just don't give a sh**). But I'm not buying it has any more validity now than it did then. That's just too convenient.

Ahhh, I long for the good old wholesome days of my youth, when we got whiskey bent and hell bound with Hank Jr, tried to convince our girlfriends that ZZ Top was not being gross when they sang about that "white shiny jewelry". The Scorpions said to "give her inches and feed her well". Oh, and to be "one toke over the line, sweet Jesus". And that's not the hard core stuff from my age.
I found it amusing that, when conservative radio stations played Kid Rock's "All Summer Long", they would blip the part about smokin' funny things, but the lines about drinking whiskey from the bottle and sex on the beach at age 17, that was okay.
Okay, I admit I hate the recording about sliding down the pole with no panties on, and my DD thinks I'm uncool because I can't stand to see preteens and young teens grooving to a song about "she moves it like a cyclone". But my dad couldn't stand the songs listed in the first paragraph either, so I guess it's all fair.

IMO, you can't beat first 10 to 15 seconds of this one as walk up.

I ran a search on "ghetto music" and got 43,000,000 hits. It is obviously an accepted genre.

I only got a little over 2 BILLION hits when I ran a search on "sex."

If a topic is within two orders of magnitude of "sex," it is a pretty commonly accepted topic.

Ran a search on "ssarge" and "hitting," and got only 512 hits. Not within FIVE orders of magnituide of "ghetto music," and barely within SEVEN of "sex." Talk about humbling. . . .

Don't take it too hard, I did a search on "ssarge" and "sex" and that brought up 746,932 hits, whereas "ssarge" and "ghetto music" got 45,856 hits.

Just kidding, of course. I share this computer with my wife, and I don't want her catching me searching for inappropriate topics like "ssarge".

Sure it has more validity now...just like it had more validity for our generation than for the preceding generations. As culture degenerates, the ramifications grow less and less tolerable...presumably (hopefully!) reaching a point where they are not tolerable at all. A little rebellion is one thing...wholesale nihilism quite another.

In any event, the logic undergirding the position that we have nor moral authority to impose limits (because of our own transgressions) isn't tenable. It's of the "two wrongs make a right" species, and basically justifies any level of debasement by this or future generations.

Skarp, can I please get some help with this sentence? Are your words getting bigger?

[anonlooker]

Take the "r" off of "nor" and see if that helps your understanding. If not let us know.

Thanks Anon. Who would win in a spelling/vocabulary competition, you or Skarp?
