I'm a lot better looking than the mother in the Partridge Family (was her name Shirley?)! What's frightening is me in front of a live mike-I'm only allowed to sing in the car-alone. Oh, come on!

I invite you to my house where my son will entertain you for HOURS on his drum set. If you are lucky, you may also get him to play the electric guitar for you. I am tolerant of this because he has flattered me by asking me to "someday" join his "band" as the piano player. I am hoping for lucrative TV contract as the next Partridge Family.

Come on! Can't you appreciate the genius of some of those sounds? The chicklets gum being popped from the wrapper, the shaving cream, the perfume bottles, the frilly slippers? Go unwind with some wine or milk or whatever you please, and look at it again. “Only so-so”? Come on! Can’t you appreciate the genius of some of those sounds?

(where, i have no idea. france, maybe?). watched the video. perhaps owing to my lack of drummer gene, only so-so. what i find interesting is the “the drummers in my family” part and the blog-in from others with “drummers in their families”. i know no drummers (at least none that are “out”, except ringo, who is dead to me since he hasn’t answered a single letter in 35 years) ergo, none in my family. so i love this parallel universe of drummers that apparently exists.

Especially the bathroom scene and living room scene with the dog squeaky toy. I'm going to pass this on to my drummer son, but with a warning that if he touches my toothbrush, his sticks will be firewood. I loved it!

I also love the guy in the feathery slippers. He's so serious, and the shoes are so silly.

That blonde looked like she was ready to throw down with that hand mixer at one point(I swear,for a minute I thought she was Lindsay Lohan). The toothbrush scene didn't freak me out as much as the tossing the books to the floor routine-there was a rug but still,hey! Alright,Robin,rocking the YouTube!
