I just did the Wii Fit's Free Step Aerobics while listening to a B-52s CD. NOTHING gets me moving like the B-52s!

:D

1. Limp Bizkit is my favorite workout music.
I don't really care for it, but it's as hard as it needs to be and it's the perfect tempo. For cardio, I like older (Mortal Kombat era) techno rock.

5. No wonder "Rock Lobster" is your earworm!
Could be worse. Could be Quiche Lorraine.

has anybody seen
a dog dyed dark green?
'bout two inches tall
with a strawberry blonde fall
sunglasses and a bonnet
and designer jeans
with appliques on it

LOVE the B-52s. We are children of our generation, are we not?

7. LOL
We certainly are!

It was fun to work out to the B-52s. I was even singing along, much to the chagrin of the darling 7 year old daughter.

10. I used to run to "Cosmic," but they were one of a bunch of bands I ran to at
that time. Not my favorite, but they had their time and place.

13. Clan an drumma and their off-shoot band, Amniroch (I forget how to spell it)
That stuff gets the blood going. It's basically designed to make you want to fight and fuck.
