You Asked for This

Since nobody posted anything, you're stuck with this. My daughter and her friends found it this weekend while we were in Myrtle Beach for a cheer competition. The first time I heard it, I thought it was the single worst song ever recorded - in fact, the sheer stupidity had me laughing for the rest of the evening. And every time I think about it.

Subsequent listens didn't change my opinion, but they did make me realize something important: this may be the single best encapsulation of Myrtle Beach ever put on wax. And for that, it deserves your attention.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you 'Myrtle Beach', by Sunny Ledfurd. It'll change your life.

It’s off his seminal album, A Tradition Like No Other. It’s available on Spotify.

In a strange bit of coincidence, I nearly simultaneously found this post and an email from a trade association I belong to announcing the location of next year's conference. The location? Goddamn motherfucking myrtle beach.

Mr. Ledfurd has quite the catalog. I recommend "Pontoon Boat" and "Adderall." And no, that's not a description of a big day on the James River. The guy leans toward a mid-Atlantic Robert Earl Keen with a lobotomy.

William & Mary women’s basketball coach Ed Swanson will not be retained after nine years on the job, the school announced Monday night. Swanson led the Tribe to a 126-128 record, and a 63-87 mark in Colonial Athletic Association competition.

This season, W&M went 10-20, with a 5-13 CAA record.

Been off the grid because of the new job, but have a "are we bad parents' question for you all. A 'friend' and his wife are sitting in Cancun without their kid because at the last minute, day before trip, they realized their son's passport had expired. Would this 'friend' and his wife be bad parents?

This one’s a good one

i've never been to myrtle beach, but that song makes me want to go there-- and interesting choice to fade to none more black for the last minute. seems like daytona

A WHOLE bunch of drama for the Heat tonight. Erik Spoelstra and Jimmy Butler had to be separated multiple times coming out of a timeout. And Udonis Haslem definitely threatened to beat Jimmy’s ass.

This place in Mexico is nice but what all-inclusive place charges for wifi per device per day. Complete bullshit.
