Throw Back Monday

Because... it's my blog and I can throw back any old day of the week that I please.

But... since "Throw Backs" are reserved for Thursdays, I'll call it a back throw.

Back Throw Monday!

What's a back throw?

Sounds like some kind of swimming stroke.  The back throw.  Probably because it's close to backstroke.  I hated that.  I did swimming growing up, SOOOOO much swimming.  I was like level 9 bad ass swimmer at camp.  There were only 9 levels.  So I was top of the pops.  I did swim team in high school too.

Some how... some way... I was swimming a mile 3 nights a week in college.  When I think back to that, I think sometimes... that's kind of crazy.  To some that's nothing.  But I think that's pretty decent for a casual workout.

In addition to backstroke, butterfly wasn't my favorite either.  If you love that... hey, more power to you.  But I'm a breaststroke person myself.  Freestyle/crawl also works for me.

If you don't swim you probably have no idea what I just talked about.  If you do... You know.  OH... YOU KNOW what I'm talking about.

Go do a 50 freestyle, then a 50 breaststroke, then a 50 backstroke, then a 50 butterfly.  Tell me which one leaves you dying.

Where was I?  iDigress...

Oh, yes throw back to when I was making back throw a thing.  Here's a quick Google (Alphabet) image search for the term "Back Throw"...

 

Whoa now.  That's intense.

There's that too.  ANYWAYS... Back throw.

What I've been TRYING to say since the beginning of this blog post is that I wanted to post something that I found stashed away in my favorite funny things file...

It's a back throw to about 2008 ish... during the elections.   I figure (iFigure) we've got some elections coming our way soonish so I thought I might as well post this since the first time this came out, my blog wasn't really a thing yet.  Not that it's really a thing now, I guess.  But it's more of a thing now than it was then.  I think.  I hope!

What's "a thing" anyways?  And how do we know it's a thing?  That's a discussion for another time I guess.

Well, so if everyone remembers back in 2008, Obama was running against McCain.  Some of you may remember this internet sensation Jelly Donut that took the world by storm.  Or, he got 60 thousand hits on YouTube apparently, because that's how many plays the video has.  I remember it being a big thing, maybe it was just a big thing with my coworkers and I.  Well at least it was a thing at some point.

Anyways, without further ado...  I present to you my throw back back throw Monday to 2008...

Jelly Donut - McCain Be Old

Careful... it's catchy as heck.  Trust me.  I've been singing it over and over since I rediscovered it.  Enjoy.
