Sitting Out

Both of us are busy in the real world (yes, we do have lives apart from karaoke) so posting will be light to non-existent through the weekend, and maybe into Monday and Tuesday too.

However, don't worry. We shall return!

The CKE Answers Your Questions

Ok. So, the Council of Karaoke Elders has been completely flooded with emails every week, and -- honestly -- we're getting sick of it (we're actually not, but saying we are adds to the drama).

The emails are usually questions about general karaoke happenings, blog entries, and a whole lot of people just want to know what is actually going on in the C-Money Money-Shot-o-the-Week.

So here is where all that excitment will take place: a periodic update on the captions, questions, and general comments put before the CKE.

Did C-Money decide what team he was on?
Well, according to our informal survey (that only seven people responded to -- y'all suck!!) it's tied between "rap" (3) and "both" (3). So if you add the "rap" votes (3) and half of the "both" (1.5) together, you end up with "rap" winning (because 3+1.5=4.5 > 1+1.5=2.5...confusing enough for you?!) So technically, "rap" is the team that C-Money should be on, but he's still doing both because he's as confused as ever -- especially after that little math lesson.

Why is Emixalot single?
To avoid a conflict of interest, I (D-Gert) am fielding this question.
Emix is single for one very simple reason. It's a reason that many might suspect, but it's probably not the one you're thinking about right now. No one should have much trouble guessing why Emixalot is single. In fact, it's so simple lots of people miss it because it's staring them in the face. So here's the answer: ... You know what? It's such a simple answer, I'm not going to answer the question. Just figure it out. You probably already have.
-- D-Gert...but I already said that

Was White Chocolate ever in a gang?
Well, I really was hoping to avoid digging into her past too much, but since we have literally been flooded with mail NOT about this question, I feel it must be answered. According to Harris County arrest records from 1996, Lindsey "White Chocolate" Rodgers has been arrested on 29 counts of criminal mischief and vandalism all involving a group that called themselves -- are ya ready for this? -- the "Sexual White Chocolates;" a group, you may have most recently heard about, when one of their founding members -- Martha "M-diddy" Stewart -- was arrested and jailed for "lying with to investigators".
-- Emixalot

Where is DJ FULLY?
Ok -- So we haven't actually received any emails about this, but we needed another queston to make it an even number. But if any of you are concerned, don't worry, DJ Fully will be back after his Hopelessly-White-And-There-Is-No-Help, But-I-Want-To-Rap-So-I-Will-Try-Anything-To-Be-Black camp is over. But there really is no telling how long that could take.
-- Emixalot...but I already said that too.

D-Gert on Karaoke etiquette

Good idea: making sure your karaoke hostess knows you appreciate her efforts by tipping generously or politely expressing thanks verbally.

Bad idea: getting drunk off your ass and gang-freaking your karaoke hostess while your plastered friends hoot and holler their encouragement.

...guess which one these guys chose...

It's a typical night at Zaps -- drinks are good, music's better, singing's worse -- and the Austin Brothers (as I am officially dubbing this pair of t-sips) are in the house. As usual, they're being good karaoke fans -- you know, singing along, cheering heartily, etc. But I guess it was that 8th pitcher of beer or that 22nd margarita that was their undoing.

I'm headed to the stage to join KBoyTX in a stirring rendition of "Motown Philly" -- one that's far better than the tool's -- and I catch some motion out of the corner of my eye. I turn to look and I see Poor Dusty minding her own business, walking through the crowd, unaware that she's WELL within the vortex of drunken stupor that is the 10 foot radius around the Austin Bros. Like dogs to other dogs' asses, these two leap out of their seats and surround their prey -- the unsuspecting karaoke hostess. Their movements really were a blur, and I remember being impressed by the fact that -- even in their highly inebriated state -- they were able to coordinate their hunting efforts so effectively. They were like a pair of wolves when it comes to gang-freaking -- drunken, drooling wolves with burnt orange ballcaps on and sweat stains -- but wolves none the less.

With a look of sheer terror on her face, Dusty darts to the left, but the Austin Bros. quickly adjust vectors. Now, it's too late. The Alpha Austin has his pelvis-thrust going as he moves in behind her, and Beta Austin already has his arms out and is pumping them furiously as he closes in infront of her.

That is the horrible -- but compelling -- moment captured above.

But Dusty won't be brought down that easily. Just when the Brothers start to relax, thinking the hunt is over, she springs into action. She reaches forward and throws Beta to the side. He ends up face first in the dirt, legs spread, hands still pumping furiously. Then, she makes quick work of Alpha, who ends up on top of Beta (completely by accident, I'm sure...). Dusty walks to the stage, victorious once again leaving the Austins humiliated -- once again.

But it's OK, because I'm sure they were too wasted to remember, so they still had a good time. Plus, I saw Alpha Austin humping a rough wooden pole later on.

The moral of the story, children, is this: it is bad karaoke etiquette to gang-freak your karaoke hostess. Don't do it. Unless, of course, you like being on the ground, on top of your friend (completely by accident, of course...) and humping rough wooden poles later.
