Moments with Joey – Eye Doctors & Tooth Fairies

Pin It

SCENE 1, INTERIOR. MORNING, CLASSROOM. The teacher is helping a young boy with his equivalent fractions assignment before school. After a few minutes the boy starts to understand it; the teacher begins to score journal entries. After a several more minutes the boy puts his pencil down.

JOEY: When I was little, I didn’t believe in the eye doctor. [Pause]. But then I found out that he really does exist.

[Offhandedly, not really paying attention].

TEACHER: Oh, so sort of like the opposite of the tooth fairy?

[There is an intake of surprised breath from the boy, and his eyes widen like fried eggs. The teacher notices the look of shock on the boy’s face and quickly adds].

TEACHER: Just kidding, the tooth fairy? Totally real.

[The boy breathes out a sigh of relief and begins to work on his assignment again].

JOEY: I always knew it.

[Fade to black].

Media of the Week - Mashup #7 - Boulevard of Mashed Songs

Pin It Oaisis & Green Day?

Simply brilliant.

I think no more words are truly necessary...



Just as a bonus, who doesn't love a little Snow Patrol along with The Police?

Media of the Week - Mashup #6 - Eight Become One

Pin It So, just who doesn't love it when eight classic songs are brought together all in order to make a new remix sensation?

Yeah, that's what I thought, too.

Ruminations at 5:00 AM

I found myself on the threshold of decisions this morning as I rolled over and looked at my alarm clock. I blinked unbelievingly at the time displayed: 3:30.

Should I get up or just lay here?

As I stared up at the ceiling fan, a thousand questions rattled about inside my head, like pennies in an empty coffee can. I knew if I were to get up, I would most likely become tired early in the day – probably being spent by lunchtime. This was doubtless not the best alternative when one has a class of 26 rambunctious students, and faced with the likelihood of an inside day if the temperature is too low…

I lay there and willed myself back to sleep.

Sleep wouldn’t come.

Pin It This particular mashup is in honor of Tib, residential fan of John Mayer. All I can say is that it's a good thing that we're friends...

Media of the Week - Mashup #4 - Dark and Difficult Times & A Little Extra

Pin It With the lastest Harry Potter movie sensation sweeping the nation, it would seem that a Harry Potter Mashup would be in order.

And here it is...



Of course, I realized that I accidentially posted this on Sunday - and even though I removed it, it still showed up in Reader.

Curses.

Because of this, I must share another song or two to still make this post somewhat exciting...

Media of the Week - Mashup #3 - Collision of Six Songs

Pin It When six songs come together and flow into one another in a seamless tapestry, one can not help but smile...

This is probably my favorite mashup of all that I'm going to share...there's just something wonderful about how these songs all seem to go together. It's almost like they were meant to be mixed together in a potpourri of awesomeness.

Seriously.
