Dear Intertunnel: It Has Come To Our Attention…

Dear Intertunnel: It Has Come To Our Attention…

(Parental Warning: A little salty language)

Ahem.Is this thing On? OK.

Dear Intertunnel,
          It has come to our attention that the Borderline Sociopathic Blog for Boys needs a theme song. Choosing such a song is, of course, fraught with peril. But then again, “fraught with peril” is the whole purpose of this place, so we do not shrink from our duty. We must have one.

         We toyed with the idea of the theme from Rawhide, of course; and Send Lawyers, Guns, And Money was a favorite of many of our team of experts. Yes, yes; I Fought The Law had its moment in the sun, and a mordant misanthrope from one of the most far-flung cubicles in our Intertunnel empire even suggested The Ballad of the Green Berets; but after a long period of commiseration and contemplation, our team of Internauts came to the inescapable conclusion that compared to Russians, we’re all cautious, respectable, and sober. We yield to the greatness of Trust Me, I’m an Engineer — the new, unofficial Official Theme Song of the Borderline Sociopathic Blog for Boy — at least until we get distracted by something else shiny. 

Sincerely,
Denton Fender
Vice-President without portfolio (I lost it)
The Borderline Sociopathic Blog for Boys

(Thanks to the BSBFB Russian envoy, Gerard at American Digest, for sending that one along)

  2. You know, forty years as an engineer and I never once said “Trust me, I’m an engineer”. Not once.

    And these are pretty much the reasons why.

    I second this tune as the Official BSBFB Theme Song.

    PS: Gotta give somebody a fall off your chair laqughing warning. :>)

  5. Had this existed 30 years ago, it would have been a staple drinking song at my fraternity at the ‘Tute!
