a one, am two, a one, two, three, four...
I walk the line.
I walk the line, because you're mine.
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line
Because you're mine, I walk the line
I walk the line.
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line
Because you're mine, I walk the line
Because you're mine, I walk the line
I walk the line.

C.: Well, here on Cal.E.’s Korner, we have a special guest today. My best friend, d.c. scot is channeling Elvis Pressley today, so I’m going to take advantage of the situation and interview the King of Rock and Roll. Elvis, a little known fact is that, after your supposed death, you became a songwriter and started writing different songs under various aliases. Can you tell us what some of those songs were?
Elvis: Well, little kitty, I tell ya, the first group I tried to write songs for was Nelson and Overstreet.
C.: I’ve never heard of them.
E.: Most people haven’t. They decided to just go by their initials, but they disagreed as to who should have top billing. Overstreet said that he should be first, but Nelson disagreed. If Overstreet hada won that argument, they woulda been “ON” all da time. However, Nelson eventually won the argumen’, so they went by tha name “NO.” They didn’t become popular, despite the hit songs I wrote for them.
C.: What songs, E.?
e.: I wrote “Up Yours Girl.” It was a song about a bad breakup. I tried to sell it to Billy Joel, but I think he rearranged the words. I also wrote “Hump.” it was a song about a dromedary. Then I wrote “I Paid the Fine, Because I Couldn’t Walk the Line.” It was a song about getting a DUI…
C.: Oh, look! We have our second guest, Craig Bifggio. That was good timing! Since the World Series starts tomorrow, I asked the Astros’ icon and first hall-of-famer to come on the show and talk to us.
Audience: B-I-G-G-I-O!B-I-G-G-I-O! B-I-G-G-I-O! B-I-G-G-I-O
!
C.: So, Craig, which team do you think will win the World Series?
CB.: Well, the Rangers beat my team, the Astros, and they're from Texas, so I hope they win. But, the D-Backs have a good team, so they could win. That’s baseball.
C.: What manager do you think will replace Dusty Baker as the Astros' new manager?
CB: I like Bruce Bochy, but I’m not sure the Astros can convince him to come down I-45 and take over for Dusty, and the Astros would be in the same boat they are now if Bruce decided to retire in a couple of years, but, that’s baseball.
C.: What other manager would be a good fit?
CB: I think bringing back A.J. Hinch would be a good idea, but then the commissioner would keep a close eye on the Astros all the time, so Jim Crane may not go for that, but, that’s baseball.
C.: What other managers would be good fits for the Astros?
CB.: There are many managers who would be a good fit with the Astros, but Joe Espada may be ready to manage. If so, he deserves a chance, but they may only think of him as a bench coach. That’s baseball.
C.: Years ago, the Rockets won the first ever world championship for the city of Houston. The Rockets were down 3-1 and came back and won one of the playoff series. Rudy’s now famous quote was “Don’t ever underestimate the heart of a champion,” when he was asked if he expected his team to win. Any thoughts?
CB.: Well, the Astros never won the championship when I was playing, but we did go to the World Series once, but that's baseball.
C.: You played football in high school, so you should know something about that sport. How do you think the Texans will do this year?
CB: They’ve had their ups and, mainly downs, but they're playing well right now. If they keep playing the way they are, they’ll make it to the playoffs, but, if they slack off, they won’t, but, that’s football.
C.: Well, my husband, Tucker Tucker Two, a.k.a. The Cat Fighter Formerly Known As The Tuxedo ( who really needs a shorter nickname) Now Simply Known AS T Because Triple T Was Already Taken, is saying that it’s time to go, so that’s all for today, folks. Please join us tomorrow for another episode of Cal.E.’s Korner.
