That Fridge story on the front of espn.com is about the most depressing story ever. I'm gonna do something less depressing now, like run over a kitten.
What makes the story so horrible is that it has a big uplifting piece in the middle that gets destroyed at the end, making his fate seem that much worse.
But let's be honest. Haven't we all wallowed in our own urine in a chair while watching TV because we didn't feel like getting up? Just me?
Why did you say "neither Parsons nor a project"? It is Alan Parsons.
Guest vocalist for the Alan Parson Project in recent years? Kip Winger from the band "Winger." Not to be confused with Glenn Danzig from the band "Danzig" or Alex Van Halen from the band "Van Halen."
I read the Fridge story too. I was trying to work the timeline in my head. By my calculations, he got down to 190 pounds in the 2007-2008 time frame, went through a bunch of therapy, and as of now he is back up to over 400?
have seen the fridge on more than one occasion at the augusta hooters...hunkered down at the barstool getting freebies from those that wanted a brush w/fame. at the time, he was a bricklayer apparently.
Somehow, I'm more hungover today that I was yesterday after the Vegas trip. A lift & a run has done very little to change this. Still, I regret nothing.
That guy Lynyrd Skynyrd had the best voice. Almost as good as that cat Steely Dan.
ReplyDeleteWhat about your ex, Thin Lizzy?
ReplyDeleteTasteless joke, The Teej! The Thin Lizzy gee-tarist just died! Shame on you for degrading our typically high level of discourse.
ReplyDeleteGee, I wonder why I mentioned them?
ReplyDeleteInteresting link I just sent to folks at work. Interesting = Depressing.

ReplyDeleteThanks TR for that uplifting reccomendation. I especially like the part about him sitting in his own urine.

ReplyDeleteThat is why I now wear adult diapers. That and the fact that they make my butt look good in jeans.

ReplyDeleteAs Potchey once said, "Like the hangover, the regret soon fades."
ReplyDeleteI'm a terrible person, thus I rarely regret anything.
ReplyDeleteWait a minute, Ike Diogu is still in the NBA?
ReplyDeleteOkay then.
