Hootie
Is anyone else as delighted as I am to see Hootie's return to prominence in Burger King's latest commercial for their Tendercrisp Bacon Chedder Ranch sandwich? The sweet rolling melody of the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch song has recently replaced the more playful "Woo hoo woo hoo hoo" from the Vonage ads as my favorite ad-song.
Kudos to Burger King for their second big score of the past 12 months. Hootie's appearance for the TCBCR, (accompanied by several very appealing female performers), follows hot on the heels of their landmark underground Subservient Chicken campaign, and has them poised for their second Nomad Award in as many years. It also marks Hootie's biggest success since "I Only Wanna Be with You".
Lyrics to the "Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch song":
"When my belly starts a-rumblin', and I'm jonesin' for a treat.
I close my eyes for a big surprise, the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch.
I love the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch,
the breasts they grow on trees.
And streams of bacon ranch dressing,
flow right up to your knees.
Tumbleweeds of bacon,
and cheddar paves the streets.
Folks don't hate ya cause ya got the juice,
there's a train of ladies comin' with a nice caboose.
Never get in trouble, never need an excuse,
the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch.
I love the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch
no one tells ya to behave.
Your wildest fantasies come true,
Dallas cheerleaders give you shaves.
Red onions make you laugh instead,
and french fries grow like weeds.
Ya get to veg all day,
all the lotto tickets pay.
The king who wants you to have it your way,
that's the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch."
Lyrics to "Woo hoo woo hoo hoo"
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo....yeah
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Oh, yeah
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo woo hoo hoo
Note to Darius Rucker:
Dear Hootie. If you didn't want to be called Hootie, you shouldn't have named the band "Hootie and the Blowfish".
To the kosher among us:
The song will have to suffice without the meal. I'll let you know if the sandwich is any good. :-)

Subservient Chicken is one of the greatest uses of the internet of all time and richly deserves our linkage in the right side bar. This is simply something that everyone should experience or regret it on his death bed. When I first discovered it, (as Nomad will recall) I wasted a solid week on it, and Ralphie and Nomad and I would frantically email each other novel discoveries. Whoever came up with it is a giant among men.
Also, I'm noticing a distinct increase in recent bacon-related posts. I certainly don't object and wouldn't want you to stop, but they make me hungry and frustrated, like mentioning donuts to a diabetic.
Mmmmmm..... donuts...

You're right. It is starting to feel a little like the Porkhoff Coffeehouse. Maybe I should look for something mutton-related.
Food for thought: Has anyone else noticed the syllabic repetition of "cough" in our name? KercKOFF COFFeehouse. Say it a lot, and it sounds like a consumption ward.

Irina: You want me to withdraw all food and fluids from Nomad because he's eating at Burger King too much?
Gindy: Thanks! We're still trying to figure out how to dispense the coffee, but we're getting better at dispensing opinion, reviews, humor and blather.
