Great. Now Try It Backwards as a Gay Viking, OK?

So I'm on a long phone-directed session this evening.
I'm supposed to very casually hum Frere Jacques and then laugh in various comforting ways.

"Love the hum...love the laughs," say the Chicago studio people.
"Yeah," adds the director, "But could you combine the two? Kind'a hum and laugh at the same time?"

Huh?

Kind of reminds me of the great Colin Mochrie Director Sketches on "Whose Line is it Anyways."
And Colin Campbell being asked to do a sort of "Depeche Mode" take in his and Cira's San Diego spot.

But we are trained seals, so here's a portion of the raw recording....

LOL Well you gave it go. Mine isn't near as entertaining, but perhaps this is what they had in mind. Just ignore the CNN in the background.

No fair, Deby; you know what a note looks and sounds like.

And, besides, you were supposed to hum and laugh AT THE SAME TIME!

(I got paid, so I'm kind'a humming and laughing simultaneously now....)

Flummoxed On!

Patience, Deby, patience....it'll soon be everywhere, they tell me.

Inscrutably On!
