Cribbage and the theme song for the new economy...

I never thought cribbage would make an appearance in a Weird Al song, but... in this economy, why not?? Read on:


From Pittsburgh Live:

"Theme Song for the New Economy: "Whatever You Like" by Weird Al Yankovic. Takes rapper TI's ode to materialism to its logical recession-era conclusion. Favorite lines: "You like Top Ramen, need Top Ramen/Got a cupboard full of 'em, I'll keep 'em coming/You want it, I got it, go get it, just heat it/Dump the flavor packet on it and eat it./Pork and beans and Minute Rice/And we can play Cribbage all night/And baby you can have whatever you like (if you like).""

Thanks Weird Al.

Maine cribbage playing musician...

From Maine Jud Caswell:

"Jud Caswell lives where the two Maines meet: where ex-hippies play cribbage with fishermen and a kind of rural poetry is salted with Yankee gumption. He grew up on a little farm in Morrill, Maine, picking carrots and milking goats; listening to records by Cat Stevens and the Beatles, reading Mark Twain and Kahlil Gibran. A multi-instrumentalist from an early age, he wandered through jazz bands, orchestras and medieval ensembles before finding his home on the acoustic guitar.
Heralded by Sing Out! magazine as "one of the leading singer-songwriters on the current scene," Jud has won eight nationally recognized songwriting contests."

COME AND SEE WHY!
