The Rose Bowl Lady and why monitors are important

Libby Evans Wright, a wonderful woman with a pleasant demeanor and a heart of the finest gold, addressed the TCU faithful on Jan 16, 2011 in Ft. Worth, TX. As a member of the Rose Bowl committee she was excited and prepared to address the 6000 purple-lovers in attendance. The only problem was that she was completely thrown off by the echo from the loudspeakers. This caused an ephemeral medical condition known as “drunk voice.” She soldiered on and made it to the end of the speech. A story of courage, perseverance, and audio gold.

I hope Libby and her family have a sense of humor about this. We played this audio this morning on the Marconi-centric Musers and we heard from so many P1′s who wanted to review it again. Now you can see it with your own human eyes. Please note that we’re only presenting this in our love of Libby.

    I was waiting for her to say “Cross over children. All are welcome. All welcome. Go into the Light. There is peace and serenity in the Light.”

    I wish she would’ve taken a stab at “aggressiveness.”

    Website font and layout is too large Gordo. However, the pink background is rather pleasing.

    Mr. Keith,
    Just wanted to let you know that I threw out a VSBB at work today and one of the guys wanted to know what it meant. I was going to send him a link via URBAN DICTIONARY, but there was no entry, so I submitted and after a few days, they accepted the entry. I hope this gives the phrase more legitimacy and understanding and drives Jah Durham more crazy.
    I also encourage P-1′s to flesh out the entry and add more to the definition than I have entered.

    Thanks for the lulz!

    Musers this morning had on Buddy Ryan. They asked him what does he do with his days now that he’s retired. He said he watches “Mike & Mike”!

    Quite funny and unexpected.

    Will Gordo post this?

    I think I need to call Bob & Dan on Friday and submit your website design for their gay or not gay segment.

    Pink polka dots?

    Really! (say in your best Sturm voice)
