PORT Authority

So, here's a PORT (point of random today):

I totally wish that the fancy screen in my car that shows me the sat-nav, audio, et al a.k.a. "stuff" also had a button for "karaoke."

I'm always driving around singing along to the radio, and every once in a while there comes a point where I don't know the lyrics. Be it that it's a new song and I'm still learning it or the lead singer has slipped into teenage mumble mode. Sure, I could use the gadget to add lyrics to my iPod, but that doesn't really help me when I'm driving...the screen's too small when I'm trying to keep one eye on the road as well. I use that sing-along feature on road trips when the driver pleads with me to keep them awake. That'll teach 'em.

If you want to delve into the world of misheard lyrics, by now you should know about this site. Some are really funny...some notsomuch. I offer it to those who work at offices where they've blocked social networking sites. Or people with a lot of time on their hands. Or the curious. Surely all of you have a funny story you'd like to share now, so feel free!

Does this really matter? Who reads this anyway? Seriously. Okay, fine. I'm probably the only Poli-pino you'll ever meet and I: like to cook up a good meal (but if given the choice I'd rather eat out); watch TV and films from here and there; love to laugh and try to do it often; hate to cry but end up doing so...and often; believe we ALL make a difference to SOMEONE at SOME POINT; love long walks on the beach, it's cheesy, I know, but I do love them especially with my family; wish I was as erudite as Stephen Fry, as cleverly comedic as (too many to name here) and as oblivious as Mr. Bean. Obviously I could go on...that's why I started the blog!
