These are a few of my favorite songs . . .

I sing a lot. I'm not so good at singing. But I do sing a lot. Especially really silly songs. I also like to make up my own words to the tune of existing songs to fit whatever is going on around me.
So, in honor of the silly songs I enjoy, I thought I'd post a couple links to some of my favorite online goofy tunes.

"So Long and Thanks for All the Fish" This is an animated sing along with dolphins bidding the earth and humans farewell before it explodes. The tune is originally from Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy. It's one of my favorites to play at going away parties. Favorite Line: "If I had one last wish, I would like a tasty fish."

"When Jamie Smiles" A pathetic love song sung by Dusty Dinklemen in the movie Just Friends. Dusty was a real nerd in high school and was in love with a popular cheerleader named Jamie. So he wrote her this song to try and score some points. It didn't work. Then about 10 years after high school he reappears in her life at the same time her former best friend (stuck in the friend zone) is again trying to win her heart. This time though Dusty's lost the long greasy hair and acne, and changed his name to Dusty Lee. He's now competing with the movie's hero for Jamie's affections by singing "When Jamie Smiles" again.

Summer, you may not have picked up on this yet, but there seems to be a common thread running along a few of your favorite sentences.

Your favorite line from your favorite song is about tasty fish, and one of your only facebook quotes is also about tasty fish. I think I detect a fettish here.

Is there something about tasty fish you're not telling us??
