I agree, BtD. It has scope. It has reach. It has panoramic perspective. It has pickled weiners.

Plus it was his first "epic" song. Theres something special about that. And you know my opinions on GiF, and how its one of the top 3 songs Als done

you know, i tried to follow the song, when i went to MNN for a show in 97 i tried to cross the state line 6:39, but it didnt happen

In my opinion, I think it was okay. After I heard it, I thought it was a parody of John Denver or something. I thought Albuquerque was more dramatic, but bbtm was more Al-ish.

Well, you gave it a try. That has to count for something. I'd actually like to see the Twine Ball. I'm afraid it'll never happen, though.

Sounds like a good road trip. Make sure you check out Wall Drug.

Favorite quote from this past Sunday's sermon: "I'm sure you'd all like to see the video of our Minnesota vacation and the largest ball of twine."

(and no I didn't ask afterward if he was familiar with TBBOTIM)

Aww, but why not? j/k That's kinda funny, though.

I bet that would have been hysterical if that was what he was quoting from though...
