csberry: (Oh My Joel)
Shortlegs (my lil bro) and I used to record ourselves a bunch on cassette tapes as kids. I have several still that contain recordings of us doing play-by-play and interviews for pretend Olympics, calling the Indy 500 (I was really into Rick Mears as a child), and DJ'ing the music we were listening to at the time.* Calvin and Nigel have been playing with their own tapes lately recording stuff, so I thought I'd take some of my old tapes in the car with us on our drive to Point Mallard today. There was one portion of a tape from about when I was 9 and Shortlegs was 6 that had all of us laughing and rewinding over and over.

I'm going to get some of this a bit wrong, but here's a quick, messy, loose transcription of the section...

Shortlegs (using a squeaky, kinda "old lady" type voice): And now it's time for another show...

Me: It's the Cory's #1, Doug's #1, and...Cory's #1 Show! So, shut up.

Shortlegs: And Mike's #1.

Me: No, Mike is #42

Shortlegs: And Cory is number 10 million.

Me: [unclear statement]

Shortlegs: Cory is the worst...most terrible...most horrible person in the whole universe.

Me (teasingly): I'm going to play this part to Mom!






* - Listening to the tapes, I heard a very strong influence of ABC Sports/Wide World of Sports, Top40 radio, and cartoons.
