A Song for Bendo

Since Dolan complained bitterly about not being awarded an intro song a few posts ago, I've decided to atone. There were several songs I thought about before settling on one appropriate tune. Candidates included Weezer's, "I'm a Loser Baby," Peter, Paul, and Mary's, "Right Field," Phill Collins', "I Can't Dance," and Sarah McLachlan's, "Angel." However, in the end, there was just one song that fits best.

Bendo, your song is officially: The Theme from Brokeback Mountain

So you decided to step up to the plate. You figured it was time to take that risk, to say something completely stupid and irrational. I welcome this.

Now I do have a few problems with it. First, all of your song titles and artists simply don't match. You might want to check those, genius. But then again, for someone who has been stalked and publicly humiliated on his own blog since it's existence it doesn't surprise me that you were shortsighted on your research.

Secondly, you obviously took deep thought in assigning me my song, because I haven't heard jokes about that movie in...hours? Honestly, the late night comics have been beating that topic to death for months and months, not to mention SNL and every other person in the entertainment industry. Do you not have the brain power to reach for something else, maybe something new and even semi-original? Again, I'm not surprised.

And to have a song with gay overtones from you? Lets be honest Dan, when is the last time you got laid? The last time you got any action whatsoever? Yes, I do recognize you have a newly found girlfriend (and this post has nothing to do with you darling, I'm sure you're a sweetheart) but before that: it has been years--correct? It's obvious to your friends that you're not exactly a ladies man (or rather the polar opposite), so maybe we're missing something? Need to admit anything?

Now what caused your suddenly burst of ill-placed brashness may only be attributed to a few things:
1. You are finally tall enough to ride the roller coaster this summer.
2. Surprisingly, you found someone to go on a 2nd date with.
3. Your green card came through.

Now my friend, it is time for your songs. After some thought I've decided on a few:

"Senorita Margarita", Tim McGraw. It's about the closest thing you've come to a girlfriend in years.
"I Touch Myself", The Divinyls. Enough said.
And finally…
“The Tijuana Taxi”, by The Spirit of Mexico. This must have been what was cranking when you ran across the border.
