Again, we start with nothing to say. But now we’re watching Lee Marvin sing.
“I was born under a wandering a wandering star…”
It started with Denice referencing Mariah. You know, because it’s been windy.
“You could write about Mariah,” she said. “You know that movie,” and she broke into song.
“Mariah, Mariah, they call the wind Mariah. Way out west, they got a name for rain and wind and fire. The wind is Tess, the fire’s Joe, and they call the wind Mariah…”
And then we tried to remember why we even knew that song. “Paint Your Wagon” – it turns out it’s from “Paint Your Wagon.” But that wasn’t what she really meant.
We had to go back and forth with clues, Google, and YouTube, which got us to Lee Marvin singing about the wandering star. Which, of course, we had to watch and admire and go down memory lane. Back in our youth, we had crushes on these Hollywood giants, the legendary “tough guys.”
This brought us to Yul Brynner, who has always been my favorite. And now we’re arguing about whose favorite he actually is because Denice says he’s HER favorite.
And now we’re looking up Yul Brynner in the loincloth. Also, laughing super hard and calling dibs on the hot guys in heaven.
I have to defer – sadly. Although I cannot imagine someone liking Yul more than me, I was not aware of the movie “The Kings of the Sun.” Also, she has a plate with his face on it. A plate. Pretty sure she wins.
The trouble with us is we just never have any fun around this place.
So while we continue on YouTube playing show tunes through the office, we’ll always be right here…
