Request Line: The Beach

INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY/NIGHT/DAY/NIGHT/DAY/NIGHT/DAY…

DJ 3000 and various other robot entities remain trapped in a time loop inside the KDFO recording studio.  The collection of robots (and cyborgs) are spread out throughout the studio, in various reclining poses. 

— [door flies open] —

JOHN DIMAGGIO: [enters the room excitedly displaying an item] Hey guys, look what I found!

RQBOCOP: …I…THOUGHT…THEY…DISCONTINUED…THOSE…

DJ 3000: …THEY…DID…..BUT…WE…BOUGHT…ONE…LAST…BATCH…OFF…E-BAY…FOR…THE…BEN’S…RETIREMENT…PARTY…

RUSSELL WILSON: …I…heard…about…that…party…

JOHNNY 2.5: …IT…WAS…PRETTY…WILD…

RUSSELL WILSON: …I’m…thinking…my…own…will…be…a…bit…more…sedate…

DJ 3000: …GOT…ANYTHING…YOU’D…LIKE…US…TO…SERVE…?

PETUNIA: …I…have…a…suggestion…

RUSSELL WILSON: …oh…damn…I…forgot…about…those…things…

JOHN DIMAGGIO: Why are you guys all talking so slowly? This is weird.

PED-209: …OUR…PROCESSORS…ARE…LESS…EFFICIENT…WHEN…IT’S…HOT…

DJ 3000: …AND…IT’S…BEEN…HOT…AS…BALLS…ALL…WEEK…

JOHN DIMAGGIO: [munching on the Choco Taco] Oh.  Yeah, I get it.  I slow down when it gets hot, too.

MAXIMILIAN: …I…WISH…THERE…WAS…SOMETHING…WE…COULD…DO…

JOHN DIMAGGIO: We can’t just adjust the air conditioning?

DJ 3000: …THE…CENTRAL…CONTROLS…ARE…LOCATED…OUTSIDE…THE…TIME…LOOP…BUBBLE…

JOHN DIMAGGIO: Ah, nuts.

DJ 3000: …PLUS…IT’S…ALMOST…TIME…FOR…REQUEST…LINE…AND…WE…STILL…NEED…A…THEME…

PETUNIA: …I…have…an…idea…

DJ 3000: …FOR…REQUEST…LINE…OR…ABOUT…HOW…TO…DEAL…WITH…THIS…HEAT…

PETUNIA: …both…actually…

PETUNIA rolls over to the soundboard – which is connected to the portal lenses by a series of wires – and fiddles with some dials and slider.  The view through the portal changes rapidly until it settles on…

A blast of cool air flows through the portal, drastically reducing the temperature in the studio. 

PETUNIA: The beach!

MAXIMILIAN: OH HELL YES.

RUSSELL WILSON: [frowning with disapproval at the salty language] Where is that?

PETUNIA: New England, but we can go anywhere…

PETUNIA enters a new set of coordinates.

PETUNIA: …Portugal…

PETUNIA: …Tahiti…

PETUNIA: …Brazil…

 

DJ 3000: I LOVE IT! LET’S KEEP IT LOCAL AND FOCUS RIGHT ON DOWN THE ROAD IN VENICE BEACH.  GOT A SONG TO START US OFF WITH?

PETUNIA cranks up the volume on the soundboard.

PETUNIA: I sure do!

Today’s theme is “the beach”.  We’re looking for songs that mention the beach, or beach-related activities and items.  We’ve done a few water-themed ones before so let’s try to keep things relatively focused; generic songs about “water” and “swimming” should be avoided in favor of beach-specific themes like “sea and sand” and “surfing” and such.  Post links as “https://www.youtube.com/watch?c4NaD!An_3cH0 and they should embed in the comments after you refresh.  Last week’s puzzle answer of “We’re In the Money” as performed in the film Gold Diggers of 1933 by Ginger Rogers was handily solved by BeefRiverLives.  Everyone ready? Let’s get wet!

Oh man. I am a GENIUS. Tornado warning went off, which meant I had about about 15 minutes to get dinner grilled up nicely on the barbecue. Literally the second I get inside with the food, the heavens open up. I am invincible.

Now I just have to convince God to spare my house. But I’ve had a few beers so I feel like I’m in prime negotiation mode.

I’ll be disappointed if this doesn’t get me Blair Witch’d, but it’s been a day and I still need to walk the dog before drinkin’ time commences.

Horatio Cornblower

Buddy, I have some news for you about the weather in New England.

Although after tomorrow it’s supposed to get pretty damn nice.

Whelp, I’m out (until I get wasted tonight and remember another one that I just HAVE to poast) – Gonna leave on a bit of a down note, but one with RESPECT and awe for the original members of Antifa.

As always, thanks for the fun RTD!!

‘Yeah, I be going down in Florida
Where the sun shines damn near every day
Yeah, I be going down in Florida
Where the sun shines damn near every day
Yeah, I’ll take my woman out on the beach
And sit down on the sand and play’

Burrow is out “several weeks” and the Bengals said they are going to sign another QB. If it’s an unknown camp arm, Burrow will be back by Week 1. If they trade a mid-round pick for a QB, maybe to Week 7.

If they sign Brady or Kaepernick, then Burrow is gone for the year and they’re going down swinging.

scotchnaut

If they sign Brady

Redshirt, put down the spoon of Cinncinnati chili and just walk away

SonOfSpam

Why is he holding the chili spoon over a flame and tying tubing around his bicep?

Redshirt

Look it’s been a few stressful days, okay?! I saw a link about “Replacements QBs for Burrow” and the names Darnold, Tannehill and Flacco and then I went to a dark place.

BeefReeferLives

Oof. As soon as I heard about that I thought of you Redshirt. Hope it’s just a lil sprain & Joe’s doing fine by the beginning of the season

(well, until he plays us, of course. For those two games I wish him screaming pain)

Pulled from the murky depths of my memory-De La Soul’s Three Feet High and Rising was incredible.

A lot of people have questions about the content of this song which are answered by the title of the song.

‘Breakin’ a stick with a brick on the sand
Ridin’ a wave in the wake of an old sedan…

Scratched by the sand that fell from my love
Deep in my dreams and I still hear her callin’
“If you’re alone, I’ll come ho-ho-home”

You think that, since we got some rain Thursday morning, we’d pause on the record setting. NOT.

Just broke the record for most 115+ degree days in a year (doubt we’re going to see 0 til NYE, also). Also, we’re going to break the record for hottest month in history — currently averaging 102.9 for the month of July (prev record is 99).

In case you ever wondered why we took so many drugs in the 70’s. Sorry in advance.

The “There’s No Accounting For Canadians Taste In Music” Report: This song was immensely popular back in the day and it is horrible. If you’re in the mood to see the 80’s-est video ever, have yourself a gander.

My wife loves this band and she’s not even Canadian.

scotchnaut

Hmmm. I don’t know her but I can tell she has very poor taste in at least two areas…

POW! ZINGO! BANDERSNATCH!
