Ankur and Suji’s Wedding

We recently attended one of my groomsmen wedding Ankur. All I can say is WOW! That was the most beautiful wedding I ever attended.
All the BEER and INDIAN FOOD you can eat ;) .

No just kidding Ankur and Suji are a beautiful couple and their wedding was no different. It was truly a peeps wedding. Every peep should be have an entourage like Ankur’s complete with golden horse. Both families were extremely welcoming and we loved being a part of their special day. Congratulations! Looking forward to seeing you both at our wedding!

… Betty, when you call me, You can call me Al!

I stumbled upon this song ripping 80’s videos one night.  I thought you might like it.  I got a laugh late at night while Bettina (Betty) was sleeping. Here’s the wiki.

You can call me Al by Paul Simon

A man walks down the street,
He says, Why am I soft in the middle now?
Why am I soft in the middle?
The rest of my life is so hard!
I need a photo-opportunity,
I want a shot at redemption!
Don’t want to end up a cartoon,
In a cartoon graveyard …..

Bonedigger, Bonedigger,
Dogs in the moonlight.
Far away, my well-lit door.
Mr. Beerbelly, Beerbelly,
Get these mutts away from me!
You know, I don’t find this stuff amusing anymore ….

If you’ll be my bodyguard,
I can be your long lost pal!
I can call you Betty,
And Betty, when you call me,
You can call me Al!

A man walks down the street,
He says, Why am I short of attention?
Got a short little span of attention,
And whoa, my nights are so long!
Where’s my wife and family?
What if I die here?
Who’ll be my role-model?
Now that my role-model is ….
Gone …… gone,
He ducked back down the alley,
With some roly-poly, little bat-faced girl.
All along …. along ….
There were incidents and accidents,
There were hints and allegations …..

If you’ll be my bodyguard,
I can be your long lost pal!
I can call you Betty,
And Betty, when you call me,
You can call me Al!
Call me Al ……

A man walks down the street,
It’s a street in a strange world.
Maybe it’s the Third World.
Maybe it’s his first time around.
He doesn’t speak the language,
He holds no currency.
He is a foreign man,
He is surrounded by the sound, sound ….
Cattle in the marketplace.
Scatterlings and orphanages.
He looks around, around …..
He sees angels in the architecture,
Spinning in infinity,
He says, Amen! and Hallelujah!

If you’ll be my bodyguard,
I can be your long lost pal!
I can call you Betty,
And Betty, when you call me,
You can call me Al!
You can call me Al ……
