SomaCow

SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow, brought to you in this hour by Justin Wilson and his delicious Cajun Style!

In this hour, we discussed our respective New Year’s (mine - lame, but nice. J and Mickey’s? Sexy Party). It’s a good hour, and Elross actually finds a way to solve all the problems in Gaza! Imagine that!

One thing I have been trying to do all week is decipher just what the hell Auld Lang Syne means.

First off, I always thought it was Irish or Gaelic or something. It turns out it is Scottish. Ew, ken, ye bastid!

Here are the lyrics:

Shid ald akwentans bee firgot,
an nivir brocht ti mynd?
Shid ald akwentans bee firgot,
an ald lang syn?

CHORUS:

Fir ald lang syn, ma deer,

fir ald lang syn,

Wil tak a cup o kyndnes yet,

fir ald lang syn.

An sheerly yil bee yur pynt-staup!
an sheerly al bee myn!
An will tak a cup o kyndnes yet,
fir ald lang syn.

CHORUS

We twa hay rin aboot the braes,
an pood the gowans fyn;
Bit weev wandert monae a weery fet,
sin ald lang syn.

CHORUS

We twa hay pedilt in the burn,
fray mornin sun til dyn;
But seas between us bred hay roard
sin ald lang syn.

CHORUS

An thers a han, my trustee feer!
an gees a han o thyn!
And we’ll tak a right gude-willie-waught,
fir ald lang syn.

I really cannot stop laughing. I am heading to bed. Maybe I can get a right gude-willie-waught!

When reviewing the notes from this episode, I was greeted with the following notes: “Mickey wants to bang Oprah, Geoff’s sack and the shaving thereof, Jen calls…again…”

Wow, I don’t know that there is that much more I can say about those that listening yourself won’t take care of!

There are a few things I feel I must tell you, though. First, we are taking nominations for Listener of the Year-2008. You can nominate someone (or yourself) here on our forums!

Also, Geoff reviewed a fantastic book that he recommends to all-no matter what your beliefs. Even though it was written a few years ago and he’s read it a few times, it still gets him riled up over what is going on out there.

And to update you on the SomaCow Media doings of 2009…

SomaCow is still going strong on Friday nights (live) for 3 hours (7-10 Eastern)! Join us!

Saturdays now showcase Prime Time Geek (PTG) live from 8-10 Eastern. Their first show with SCM was last week and Felix had a great reception. Join us again this week!

On Sundays, The Sports Buzz still continues to discuss the hot sports topics of the day. This week join Ryan and special guest Luke sitting in for Todd, from 6-8 Eastern.

Just Push Play continues to entertain with Brian (titsMagee), CR, and Nova on their new night of Mondays from 8-10 PM Eastern.

And expecting to start this week, Wednesday?, is the return of ComaSow with Geoff and Jen! We’ll be reviewing new bands sent in to us as well as show you all a little glimpse into our crazy life. Check out the site for details on time!

Thank you all for an unbelievable 2008! We are looking forward to an even better 2009.

SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow, brought to you in this hour by our new show, Prime Time Geek - Plug in, and be enlightertained!

So, in this hour, we decided to put right a great wrong, namely, underappreciation of our Producer, Ross. The guy goes through so much to get our show out each week… And we don’t even offer him health insurance! Thrill in this hour as we discuss the horrific child abuse he suffered, resulting in this.

Ross is still recovering from his mishap, and so we dedicated a whole episode to his news stories. And don’t think we just skirt a bunch of headlines… This is extensive, deep thrusting journalism. A whole hour of all the news THEY don’t want you to know!

I spent a little time just now, watching CNN, Fox, etc. I am amazed that these channels still exist. Poorly pronounced non-facts being flubbed by overly teethy smilamatrons, lying through their eyes as they glaze over truth and push policy as press. Nasty. Not so here at SomaCow, where we mutter the truth between mouthfuls of whatever food some kind listener has so graciously graced us with.

So we chatted about Chinese Men that smoke, and Waffle Houses, and Waffles in General, and the supreme Waffle.

It was pretty sweet, all around.

If I could turn aside from the jocularity and goofiness we normally get up to, I have a real question for you, the listener. Please be honest.
Why…

Does Burger King…

Make such an awful stomach pain?

You don’t believe me? Go eat some tater tots, and get back to me. IF YOU CAN.
