Podcasts about rhymes

It's time for another Life in the Fast Lane, and we're here to share a piece of advice: “You don't plan a life that rhymes like that.” We enter the backrooms in the Tokyo Drift Minute (#39) to find some Initial D connections, and to wonder what Japanese words Sean has picked up so far as well as what he thinks Morimoto says. We then Run the VIN, which features a couple of very long posts. (Classic Vin.) Joe asks: how would we spend a day as Vin's Kojak videographer? Joey raises a new goal of media literacy for this segment: to ensure no one else is further duped by Vin Diesel suggesting that Fast Forever is definitely in production, and it's definitely not a World Cup promo. (Alas.) The Rock continues his quest for an Oscar win with a potentially questionable decision. Jason writes in to dive in deeper into the Bear Paw minute, as well as to share some stats about various F&F rankings. (Rotten Tomatoes is wild!) We talk about the big moves made at Joey's BBQ re: our Fast Forever prize before discussing new release movies (Leviticus, Jackass: Best and Last, and Supergirl). Joey talks about winning a very cool lottery, sort of.

The software patches on the Kremlin's digital autocracy have officially failed, and the nineteenth-century Tsarist operating system underneath is throwing rods in real time.In this massive, deep-dive episode of The Eastern Border, we map the exact, radioactive parallels between the catastrophic hubris of the 1904 Russo-Japanese War and the structural collapse unfolding across the Russian Federation in July 2026. From Saudi Arabia delivering an eleven-dollar macroeconomic sledgehammer to crowd out Urals crude from Asia, to Ukrainian strike drones casually cruising unhindered over strategic refinery networks in Tatarstan, Saratov, and Bashkiria—the carotid artery of the Russian war economy is being systematically severed.We tear through the sanitized vranyo of official state data to expose a brutal, street-level reality: a systemic 25,000-ton daily gasoline deficit, a 72-hour starvation clock on fresh food logistics, Alexander Lukashenko's breathtaking capital strike and fuel extortion against Moscow, and the state-approved chemical execution of the civilian vehicle fleet via toxic, high-sulfur fuel substitutes.Worse still, the macroeconomic void has expanded to an astronomical 20 to 25 trillion rubles when accounting for regional deficits and a forty-five trillion ruble consumer debt trap forcing millions into payday loans and pawnshops. Meanwhile, the corrupt Ponyatiya system continues to reward bloody military failure—exemplified by the "Muradov Paradox"—while the sports bureaucrats in Moscow commit the ultimate "Tracksuit Treason," legally signing away the annexed territories to secure a VIP pass to the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics.History doesn't just repeat itself... it rhymes. And right now, the final verses are being written in the ashes of the post-Soviet resource empire.Become our patron:https://www.patreon.com/theeasternborderMerch store + another option for memberships:https://theeasternborder-shop.fourthwall.com/Follow what's going on here in the very border of Eastern Europe:https://bsky.app/profile/theeasternborder.lvDownload all episodes for free on our website; pictures accompanying certain episodes can be found there as well!http://theeasternborder.lv/Car4Ukraine Eastern Border Summer Campaign!https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/summer-sunshine-trucks-2026-eastern-borderSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

Owning My Masters (Mastered) is a digital archive of original rap music and spoken word poetry containing two volumes of music, an annotated timeline, videos, and a digital book. In this project, A.D. Carson exposes the artificial boundaries imposed on understood ideas about knowledge production in academia by employing hip-hop creative and compositional practices to interrogate ideas of citizenship, history, historical imagination, race, home, and humanness. Using sampled and live instrumentation and repurposed music, film, and news clips, an introductory video, and original rap lyrics, heoffers a new examination of how to create theory through hip-hop. The unmastered album was originally submitted to Clemson University in South Carolina as the author's dissertation, composed against the backdrop of the growing unrest across the U.S. and the world in response to the public attention to the deaths of Black people, many at the hands of police and vigilantes. As such, the songs highlight outlooks on Black life in America—on campuses and in communities across the country—and how they fit with geographic and temporal place and space. For this publication, the tracks have been mastered, and Carson has written a new introduction to contextualize and reflect on the moment in which the songs were written. It is a 2026 ACLS Open Access Multimodal Book Prize Finalist. Kishauna Soljour is an Assistant Professor of Public Humanities at San Diego State University. Her most recent writing appears in the edited collection: From Rights to Lives: The Evolution of the Black Freedom Struggle. Learn more about your ad choices.

Rest to Return is a podcast for a restless world. Kohenet Keshira haLev Fife is your host. This series is rooted in Shabbat, an ancient Jewish practice that teaches us how to belong to time. Here, rest is a sacred rhythm woven into who we are. We continue by gathering around a single question: Where do we find permission to rest?  Here is the Rauh Jewish Archives entry about Congregation Torath Chaim. You can learn more about the Torath Chaim Cemetery here(23:12-25:10). The concept of b'tzelem Elohim comes from Genesis 1:27. You can learn more about Kohenet Jo Kent Katz and her work here. You can learn more about Kohenet Jo's work with Transcending Jewish Trauma here. Abraham Joshua Heschel calls Shabbat “a sanctuary in time” in his book, The Sabbath: Its Meaning for Modern Man. You can learn more about Octavia Raheem and her work here. The quote that I refer to in this podcast comes from her podcast, Leaders Devoted to Rest. Enjoy the live version of Lay it Down, Let it Go here. Check out the Rest to Return webpage for photos, info about the Rest to Return retreat, and more! This episode is brought to you by the Institute for Jewish Spirituality. Rest to Return exists because we believe slowing down is a spiritual act. IJS believes that too. For over two decades, IJS has been helping people go deeper, through Jewish mindfulness meditation, contemplative prayer, sacred text study, and embodied practice. Their offerings range from online courses and silent retreats to immersive cohort programs for seekers of all experience levels, clergy, and spiritual leaders who are ready to live and lead from a more grounded place. Kohenet Keshira haLev Fife is part of IJS's core faculty, and the wisdom you'll hear in this series is very much in that spirit. If this podcast is stirring something in you, IJS is a place to go further.

Every property cycle has had its ups and downs—but one thing has remained remarkably consistent: the market has always recovered and gone on to surpass its previous peak.

The first half of 2026 has already delivered a stacked lineup of rap releases, so we fired up the mics to take stock of the year's best albums so far. Before getting into our midyear favorites, we talk about our all-time favorite summer rap anthems and unpack J. Cole's unexpected affinity for James Taylor. Then we dive into some of our favorite releases of the year, including Play With Something Safe by Roscoe P. Coldchain and Nicolas Craven, Planet Frog by Action Bronson, Cry Baby by Vince Staples, and several other standout projects that have been living in our rotation. Theme song produced by DJ Cutso. Rhymes by DEM ONE. Episode produced by DEM ONE.

Someone can be a local skater in Jacksonville one year, then be sleeping in a truck in Colorado the next, chasing work and trying to keep a creative dream alive. That's the reality Voodoo and his cousin Ian bring into the garage with us, and it turns into one of those conversations that moves fast from laughs to real life lessons without losing the thread.We talk skateboarding at Monument, the OGs who actually help younger skaters level up, and how that daily grind mirrors what it takes to grow as an independent hip-hop artist. Voodoo breaks down his approach to honest lyrics, why he refuses the fake-flex rap template, and what it feels like to go months without studio time when you're out of state trying to survive. We also dig into the practical side of music marketing: networking, venues, mini tours, merch, BeatStars leasing, UnitedMasters distribution, and the hard math of streaming payouts.Then we switch gears into culture and current events: the Dave Chappelle stage attack, why comedians keep getting targeted, and how “offense culture” and social media censorship change the way people talk online. It's part free speech debate, part parenting and resilience talk, and part reminder that context matters more than outrage.Tap play for road trip stories, DIY music strategy, and the kind of perspective you only get after trying to build something the hard way.

Between Two Voices: Understanding Code-Switching   Welcome back to Blended! Today, we're talking about code-switching. A couple of episodes ago, my panel and I were talking about intersectionality, this phrase come up and, I have to admit, I hadn't heard it before. It's one of the things I love about Blended, it always throws up something new. And I thought that, if it was new to me, it might be new to some of you as well. So we wanted to give code-switching its own deep dive. Today we'll be talking about what it means, why it happens, the hidden toll of sacrificing personal authenticity to fit in – and what we can do to create inclusive environments for everyone.  IN THIS EPISODE:   [00.54] Introductions to our Blended panelists.   ·         Leah – Author ·         Jeff – Community Consultant and Executive Producer and Host of Beats, Rhymes y Comunidad podcast ·         Dr Lola – ERG Strategist and Founder and Executive Director at Immigrants in Corporate  [06.22] The group explore what code-switching means and why it happens, and share some personal examples.   ·         Inauthenticity ·         Altered: o   Mannerisms o   Dress o   Language o   Body Language Context ·         Perception ·         Acceptance ·         Bias ·         Conscious/unconscious ·         Professionalism/credibility   ·         Intent ·         Stigma ·         'Cookie cutter' mold in the workplace ·         Archetypes – European white male centric   ·         Patriarchy ·         Impact of 'casual' tech CEO's ·         Raising children to code-switch ·         Awareness ·         Generational differences ·         Accountability ·         Too much, or not enough ·         Socioeconomic impact ·         Exhaustion ·         Diversity ·         Normalization ·         Fear of change – what are you really afraid of? ·         Ignorance ·         Courage to call things out   "It's how you alter the way you show up, whether it's in a conversation or an environment, from your mannerisms, your body language, the way you dress. Anything that's an inauthentic version of yourself that you're presenting in an effort to gain approval or acceptance." Jeff "I was raised on it… It was expected of us. This is what you do to adjust, to do the best you can to eliminate bias and assimilate into what's acceptable." Leah "It's changing. I'm being more intentional about creating a code of my own, because there's been too much stigma around how we show up – especially in the workplace." Jeff  "It's a burden, a backpack of rocks. But, after a while, we get used to it." Leah "As a black woman in America, you can't talk about this without talking about race and gender… Sometimes code-switching becomes armor… but it's exhausting." Dr Lola "Sometimes when we think about change it can get so big that you retreat, it almost feels impossible. Then I realized it just had to start with me... If you check yourself each time you're afraid and ask yourself, 'what about that bothers me so much?,' then you're creating an atmosphere that allows people to be themselves." Leah   [42.13] The panel reflect on the mental health impacts of code-switching, and how it shows up in community. ·         Identity ·         Shrinking yourself ·         Belonging ·         Code-switching with ill-intent ·         Recognition ·         Permission ·         Setting the tone ·         Culture ·         Forcing people to conform   "We talk about the word belong, but we don't actually interrogate what that requires." Jeff "How do we attract a different culture? If people are code-switching – intentionally or unintentionally – it's because something about that environment has told them they need to." Dr Lola   [57.19] The group discuss responsibility and who should take ownership of code-switching.    ·         Leadership ·         Safe spaces ·         Empathy ·         Grace ·         Understanding ·         Support ·         Curiosity ·         Allyship ·         Boundaries ·         Education ·         Open dialogue ·         Power ·         Visibility   "The leader has a responsibility to set the tone. I think, as individuals, we're always going to need to code-switch to a certain extent, but you shouldn't have to code-switch consistently, to your detriment." Dr Lola   [01.06.56] The panel share ideas for what leaders can do to tackle code-switching in the workplace.   ·         Training ·         Impact of AI ·         Shift focus to individual ·         Consistency ·         Vulnerability ·         Ability to get it wrong   [01.18.52] The group sum up their thoughts from today's discussion.    RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED: You can connect with Leah, Jeff and Dr Lola over on LinkedIn.

Rhymes (2026) is another Tom Will poetry collection from Tom Will, in which he invents the technique of rhyming. It contains plenty of roundels, a form created by Algernon Charles Swinburne, as well as triolets, rondels, villanelles, sonnets, englyns, several original translations of French poetry into English, and no limericks. Being a Tom Will collection, there are cats, moons, townies, and some very advanced Spoonerisms.In this episode, Tom gave us several (long!) descriptions of various poetic forms and their histories, before his phone stopped recording and the last 40 minutes of our conversation were lost. I apologise for this (we lost the parts where he described his approach to translation). Tears in the rain.

→ Watch on YouTube → Detailed Show Notes → Timestamps: (00:00) A brief overview of these chapters.(06:04) The Lord covenants to make Israel a peculiar treasure, a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. Time, pressure, and heat create jewels.(14:07) The cultural context of Exodus 19.15. Our doctrine is that intimacy and having children is holy and good within the bonds of marriage.(15:08) The greatness of the glory of God requires transfiguration for individuals to enter into his presence.(17:14) D&C 84 adds that Moses was preparing Israel for temple covenants to bring them into the presence of God.(20:13) The Lord reveals the Ten Commandments.(28:34) Rhymes to easily remember the Ten Commandments.(33:37) An example of a modern day set of Ten Commandments.(52:06) Additions to The Ten Commandments are found in chapters 21-23, The Covenant Code. There are conflicting messages in the Bible about slavery.(59:26) The Israelites accept the covenant and ratify it. The Joseph Smith Translation clarifies the ambiguity in the Bible about whether or not God can be seen.(1:02:55) As we are willing to receive light, we will receive more light.(1:07:32) The Tabernacle is planned. Elder Bednar encourages us to discuss the temple more often.(1:13:49) Symbols of Christ in The Tabernacle portray our journey back to our Heavenly Home.(1:19:56) Artisans furnish The Tabernacle. The Lord doesn't give a commandment without preparing a way for it to be accomplished. The talents we posses are part of God's divine plan.(1:23:46)The Sabbath Day is observed. We need to rest and be refreshed. (1:24:49) Aaron makes a golden calf for Israel to worship while Moses is on the mountain. The Levites enact violence against the apostates.(1:32:59) When the Kingdom of Israel splits around 921 BC, Jeroboam constructs golden calves in Dan and Bethel. The story of the golden calf may be a message to Israel casting Jeroboam as an apostate king, perhaps portraying a theological rift after the schism in Israel.(1:34:46) The bull (calf) was a symbol for God in the ancient Near East and represents strength and might. It may also be a representation of the pedestal or footstool of God.(1:37:38) The stone tablets are broken and the Israelites are given a lesser law. This may also help us see the Book of Mormon in a new light.(1:48:21) Moses represents the Savior Jesus Christ as he offers a prayer pleading for the Israelites. → For more of Bryce Dunford’s podcast classes, click here. → Enroll in Institute → YouTube → Apple Podcasts → Spotify → Amazon Music → Facebook The post Ep 368 | Exodus 19-20; 24; 31-34, Come Follow Me 2026 (April 20-26) appeared first on LDS Scripture Teachings.

"I'll take it from you, homie, you'll see, cause you know the Leprechaun is the real O.G."The Horror Bulls roll up with Leprechaun in the Hood (2000), the sequel where the franchise fully abandons logic and leans into pure chaotic energy. Rap battles, magic weed, Ice-T, and Warwick Davis absolutely going for it — we break down whether this is dumb fun or completely unhinged nonsense.

As tensions rise in Israel and antisemitism surges across the globe, familiar patterns begin to emerge. As Rabbi Dunner notes, the Haggadah's call to see ourselves as if we left Egypt is not abstract. Just as in the original Exodus, when things worsened before redemption, today's chaos may be the prelude to transformation, reminding us that history's echoes often signal what comes next.

In this episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones and Jason England continue their discussion of Hip=Hop in the year 1996.From classic albums by A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul to the massive breakthrough of The Fugees, the conversation explores how 1996 produced some of the most important rap records ever made. But it was also the moment when hip-hop started shifting—from a culture-driven scene to a more commercial industry.Bomani and Jason break down why albums like Beats, Rhymes and Life, Stakes Is High, Hell on Earth from Mobb Deep, and Ironman from Ghostface Killah captured a turning point in the genre. They also discuss how artists like Lauryn Hill helped expand hip-hop's audience while changing the sound of rap. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

What if the best financial advice isn't new—but simply forgotten? In this episode of Earn & Invest, Doc G sits down with historian Joseph S. Moore, author of How to Get Rich in American History: 300 Years of Financial Advice That Worked—and Didn't. Moore spent a decade exploring centuries of advice aimed at everyday Americans, testing which strategies actually worked—and which didn't. Remarkably, his research led him to build a seven-figure net worth using lessons from the past. Moore's journey began with a personal financial scare: after taking a risky “NINJA loan” to buy a townhouse in 2005, he realized his vulnerability as the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 approached. Selling his home just in time sparked a curiosity that would consume the next decade. One of his most surprising findings? Optimism is a powerful predictor of financial success. Research from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau shows that believing you can shape your financial future often outweighs inheritance or education. Moore argues that financial “gurus,” often dismissed for overhyping strategies, actually provide hope and practical frameworks that help people take action. We also explore how many “modern” wealth tactics are centuries old. House hacking—renting out spare rooms to pay a mortgage—was once a standard working-class strategy, frequently managed by women whose contributions rarely appeared in official statistics. Mobility was another forgotten tactic; in the 1800s, roughly one in three Americans moved annually to chase opportunity. Moore introduces the concepts of slow time and fast time: slow time is when we build skills, capital, and relationships; fast time is when booms, crashes, or major shifts create opportunities. Those prepared in slow time can seize advantage when fast time arrives. We also discuss concentration vs. diversification, the myth of effortless compound returns, and why financial independence isn't the finish line—it's the point when life becomes flexible enough to pursue meaningful goals. For anyone curious about wealth-building, historical financial strategies, or the patterns behind money and opportunity, this episode offers practical insights drawn from 300 years of experience.

Note: this episode was recorded before the latest developments in Iran. What can incidents of antisemitism from America's past tell us about its future? For Mijal and Noam, there's no one better to answer this question than Professor Emeritus Jonathan Sarna. Professor Sarna--a legendary scholar and author of the essential book American Judaism--takes our hosts on a tour of the late 19th century, when Jews found themselves excluded from a variety of spaces. Together with Mijal and Noam, he finds hope in the Jewish community's response--both then and now. This episode is in memory of Leo M. Bernstein. Get in touch at WonderingJews@unpacked.media.

This week, explain if we didn't laugh we'd be sobbing all the time. New segment: What did the government do to radicalize you or activate the resistance this week? Coming to you straight from Minneapolis. Amy's arch nemesis Bovino got fired in shame from his job depriving people of their constitutional rights by the administration. Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine fame came to town to give a protest concert at First Avenue with secret special guest The Boss, Bruce Springsteen. Amy and Maya didn't get tickets. Maya explains the bizarre dual worlds they are living in. The Boss wrote a song for Minneapolis celebrating the resistance. P.S. Minneapolis is an impossible word to rhyme and that's why you don't hear a lot of songs about this town. Maya drives through an ICE operation, looses hope, then gets a great message from a friend. Local journalist Georgia Fort and national newsmaker Don Lemon are arrested for journalism. First amendment much? Maya has fond middle school memories of Habeas Corpus. Can we just go back to being fly-over country. Our favorite resistance song this week is about how someone in the administration is a “Bird-legged Ho”. Apparently, kids don't drink out of the hose anymore. Maya reviews The Wrecking Crew starring friendly hunks Dave Bautista and Jason Momoa. Maya reviews Predator: Badlands. Amy explains a very specific Bad Bunny dance.

Gammer Gurton’s Garland, published in 1784, is one of the earliest collections of English nursery rhymes, and contains verses both familiar and alarmingly unsettling. Intended to be read to toddlers (i.e., “children who can neither read nor run,” according to its subtitle) and named after a fictitious Grandma (“Gammer”) Gurton, who'd be analogous to Mother Goose, the volume were assembled by the eccentric scholar Joseph Ritson, who was known for his collecting of Robin Hood ballads, vegetarianism and ultimate descent into madness. Portrait of Joseph Ritson by James Sayers, early 1800s. We begin our episode with a snippet of a 1940s' rendition of “Froggy Went a-Courting” by cowboy singer Tex Ritter. It's a relatively modern take on Ritson's “The Frog and the Mouse.” But like quite a few rhymes in the collection, this one had appeared in print earlier. Already in 1611, British composer of rounds and collector of ballads, Thomas Ravenscroft, had written out both lyrics and musical notation for “The Marriage of the Frogge and the Mouse,” a song he described as a folk song or “country pastime.” While a few other rhymes in Ritson's collection were borrowed from one of two earlier editions of nursery verses (both published as Tommy Thumb’s Song Book 40 years earlier), most of what he collected appeared for tge first time in Gammer Gurton’s. We hear a bit about some of the familiar rhymes that premiered in this collection, including Goosey, Goosey Gander, Ride a Cock-Horse to Banbury Cross (with the “rings on her fingers and bells on her toes” lady), Bye, Baby Bunting, and There Was an Old Woman who Lived in a Shoe.” Ritson's version of the last, however, takes a rather rude and unexpected turn. 1865 edition of Gammer Gurton’s Many, if not most, of Ritson's rhymes seem to have been weeded out of the gentile or sentimental collections we know today. Naturally, we devote attention particularly to these objectionable verses. Included are a handful of aggressively nonsensical rhymes, which could pass for 18th-century Dada and verses notable for their cruelty. The most alarming contain brutal slurs, threats, and playful references to assault, adultery, matricide, suicide, and animals going to the gallows. The last third of our episode is dedicated to poems noteworthy for their survival as musical ballads. The first discussed is the basis for song “Lady Alice,” which later appears in James Child's 1860 collection The English and Scottish Popular Ballads. Ritson's version, “Giles Collins and Proud Lady Anna,” is a greatly simplified version of the ballad later cited by Child. While toddlers might appreciate the simpler storytelling, the subject matter — namely, doomed lovers — is not the normal stuff of healthy nursery rhymes. More surprising, is the fact that Ritson's story begins with Giles Collins in the process of dying and Lady Anna dead (of heartbreak) within a few verses. After their deaths, a tentative suggestion of undying love, a lily reaching from Giles' grave toward Anna's, is destroyed – an unhappy turn on the not uncommon motif of a rose and briar entwining over lovers' graves. We close with a discussion of “The Gay Lady who Went to Church,” an innocuous-sounding rhyme, intertwined with the history of two rather gruesome folk songs popular around Halloween: “There Was an Old Lady All Skin and Bones” and “The Hearse Song” AKA “The Worms Crawl In.” Also discussed is a surprising link between Ritson's nursery rhyme and a faux-historical ballad invented for the very first Gothic novel, Matthew Gregory Lewis' The Monk.

David and I began building oilfield heat exchangers in a heavy steel fabrication shop in Oklahoma when we were 14 years old. We were universally known as, “them schoolboys.”Steel shops are notoriously noisy, but when we heard “Schooolboy!” ring out above the cacophony of hammers and grinders, we would swivel our heads toward the sound and begin walking toward whomever was looking at us.“Hard, dirty and dangerous” describes the work and the men we worked with.To call them “drunks, deviants, and derelicts” would certainly be less kind, but no less accurate.There were also 8 or 9 solid family men, most of whom were foremen and supervisors.The oil coolers we built were the size of a two-car garage. And several times a day these metal monsters would be lifted 5 or 6 feet off the ground by an overhead crane and go swinging through the air to another part of the shop as far as 300 feet away.Heavy steel flying through the air is entirely unforgiving. One of my responsibilities was to drive injured guys to the hospital. But few of my bloody passengers were injured in accidents. Most of them were injured in fistfights with coworkers.When we were both 16, David and I were joined by a boy named Jay. Dark hair, dark eyes, and skin that was decidedly not English, Irish, Scottish, or German. We liked him immediately.David put a quarter into the machine and yanked a Pepsi from its mechanical jaws. He handed it to Jay and asked, “Are you some kind of Puerto Rikkan or something?”Jay scowled and said, “No, I ain't no dang Rikkan.”David smiled, clicked his Pepsi bottle against the one that Jay was holding, took a long drink, then said, “It's good to meet you, Rikkan.”We found out later that Jay was Italian, but his name was Rikkan from that day forward.A few days later, Rikkan began calling David “Cliff” and my name somehow became “Dean.” Rikkan never told us why he chose those names, but he refused to call us anything else, so David and I fell into line. I began calling him Cliff and he began calling me Dean.Jay, David and Roy became Rikkan, Cliff and Dean for the next 3 years. Utterly absurd, but completely true.Devin Wright has a sparkling laugh and I've always enjoyed hearing it.So when Devin began working with me 20 years ago, I would walk into his office each afternoon and ask a ridiculous question. Devin would laugh his sparkling laugh and I would walk away smiling.One day I popped my head into his office and looked at him quizzically, as though I was confused. He looked back at me, equally puzzled. With a completely straight face, I asked “Did you get a spray tan?”For once, Devin didn't laugh. He vigorously denied it, utterly aghast that I would ever think that he was so vain and shallow that he would ever stoop to such a ridiculous…I quit listening after that.So now you know how “Spraytan” was born.Jacob Harrison became “Boxwine” in a similar fashion,Dave Cullen became “Skunkmeat”Howard Wolowitz became “Fruit Loops”George Costanza became “KoKo”and Jeffrey Eisenberg became “Jet.”No, “Jet” is not a reduction of Jeffrey.When we agreed to meet for lunch last week, Jeffrey suggested by text that we meet at 1300 hours.I texted him back, “I never knew that you were in the Air Force. Did you fly fighter jets?”If all of this sounds lowbrow, redneck, hick, uncultured, ill-refined, outmoded, outdated, dinosaur-ish and in poor taste, I agree.But no one can spend 4 impressionable years working with drunks, deviants, and derelicts and walk away without at least one bad habit.Roy H.
