The Mic Is On: Guest Hosts Lisa Gates and Phil Gerbyshak

November 6, 2007 by Liz

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

Liz Is Away — Time to Play

You know that they’re going to encourage:

  • misbehavior and rowdiness
  • tree climbing and jumping on the beds
  • eating Klondike Bars instead of healthy food — Oh wait, we do that anyway . . .
  • and flamenco dancing with a code-writing donkey and a drunken moose.
RelationSheep: Lisa Gates and Phil Gerbyshak

And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

Oh, and bring links about misbehaving to share!

That’s Right . . . 5 yrs., 10 yrs., or maybe 199 yrs. ago!

Here’s a few ideas to get us started:

  • What did we do in a past life?
  • What did we wear?
  • Where did we go?
  • What did we think was fun?
  • How was our hair?
  • What transportation was cool?
  • What slang did we use?
