Oh yeah, I've got my PhD.

   Word to your mother.  Welcome to hot-as-blazes August here with the sock. 
  Mad props and thanks to my best sock buddy Nate, who sent me the ridiculously
  wonderful shirt you see above.  It must have been made for me - I mean come on,
  look at it!  How awesome is that?  And he found it in Switzerland, of all places.
  They must like the socks out there.  And this sock does like me some Swiss
  Misses.  Mmm-hmm, indeed.  Nate rocks.   So hey kiddies, it’s August, I’m
  drunk, and how are you?   Let’s get this boat moving before I lose my buzz, shall
   we? 

    Lots of exciting things going on this month.  Let’s start off with the movies. 
  The winner of last month’s poll for movie clip was Willy Wonka and the 
  Chocolate Factory.  I couldn’t rustle up any Oompa Loompas, so I had to do
  Loompa-less scenes.  I also couldn't decide between two different scenes, so I 
  just did them both.  Oh, the range and the rage!!  My pal Dante will be pleased, 
  as his favorite friend Hinkle shows up in two of this month's clips.  He's the 
  requisite old man, what can you do?  You can check out the Wonka clips on  my
  Movies Page, along with my homage to two old-school public service
  announcements.  Way better than those stupid “The More You Know” things. 
  Total crap.  By the way?  CBS Cares.  I sleep much more soundly at night
  knowing that.  I liked it way better when Suzy Chapstick was telling me I should
  be a Big Sister.  Those were the days.  Sigh.  Yes, well, back to the matter at
  hand.  There’s a new Ask Tim question up, as well as a few song requests.   You
  know what I always say – you guys rock, and keep ‘em coming!  Also, keep
  sending in your votes for all-time favorite Tim movie clip.  Woo!  

     I’ll be hitting some concerts this month, and I’m so excited that I keep peeing
  my pants unexpectedly.  Oh wait, I’m not wearing pants.  [So that’s what all of those
  spots on the floor are from – Ma]  It makes it easier to give my aforementioned
  ‘lessons’ when you’re not wearing any pants.  Easy access, baby.  Anyhoo, I’ll be
  going to see none other than my American Idol boy Clay Aiken.  The sock and 
  the Clay, together at last.  I hope that concert doesn’t suck a-double-snakes.  I’m
  out of there as soon as they start singing that fool ‘Proud to Be an American’
  song.  Must I hear them sing it AGAIN?  Methinks not.  I may also have to take
  a few bathroom breaks during some of the, um, less than stellar performances. 
  (DeMato, I’m looking at you)  That should be an interesting night out, but I'm
  much more excited about going to another concert mid-month.  I don't want to 
  spoil anything, so I'll save my tales and hopefully some pictures for next month.
  Stay tuned!   I’m also hoping to get out and do some more things, but the waiting
  list for my lessons is getting so backed up that I might not have time.  Ah, the
  crazy life of a sock such as myself.  Speaking of which, I’ve got to go doll myself
  up for a hot date tonight.  Before I go, I’ve got to give 2 quick shout outs – 
  Shylah baby, this sock loves ya!   And a big hey to Heidi, Greg, and their dog
  Penny, who wants to sniff me.  Penny, babe, get in line!  On that note, I’m off. 
  Catch you all on the flip side!  Have a great month!
