My big deal internet radio appearance.

I was on the BlogTalkRadio show last night, and let me tell you... I was terrible. I'm not sure why I even do these things, other than I kinda like to embarrass myself because later on, I think it's funny.

True story. The ringtone on my phone is a clip of the song Drive, by the Cars, as performed by Julio Iglesias. What you hear on this video from :20 to about :25 is exactly what happens when somebody calls me:

Why do I have that as my ring tone? It's because I figured there would be times when I'd forget to turn my ringer off while in a potentially embarrassing place (work, class, courtroom, gay bar). When Julio would start singing, I'd turn red in the face, but oh what a laugh I'd have to myself later!

I think you can listen to it here. I should've done the whole thing in a really heavy Filipino accent. I feel so much more comfortable that way.

"I should've done the whole thing in a really heavy Filipino accent. I feel so much more comfortable that way."

is that you, Dat Phan?

You picked "Drive"?
You picked "Drive" over "Careless Whisper"? Over Careless Whisper??

What is wrong with you?

drive
more potential for embarrassment if I happen to be looking for a ride somewhere.
Dex
You and I have a very similar fake laugh.
I had to tickle myself
I kept thinking, we're laughing now... I should laugh! I can't laugh... Better tickle myself! HEHEHEHEHEHEHE
You were fine
At least you didn't declare your own love for Josh Fogg or Joe Torre.
oh man how close
I kept thinking, why are we gay for Josh Fogg now? Should I say something gay about Josh Fogg?
holy moses
i was in the middle of a business meeting when my roommate called me. as a joke on him i'd assigned "It's Raining Men" by the Weather Girls as his ringer. That's the last time i remember actually blushing...
I listened
And you weren't terrible. I could hear you and you weren't too loud.

Also, congratulations, your voice is not that of a cartoon character. :D
