Last Birthday Song

My wife and family took me out to Hushpuppy for all-you-can-eat crab legs. It just so happens this is the last night Hushpuppy will be having Crab Leg Monday, after 26 years. There are so many stories to tell from that restaurant. I will have to go into it in another post.

Anyway, I enjoyed the crab and family and now for a little Happy Birthday song to myself.


A Palindrome for my Birthday

Today is my birthday and in honor of this day I thought I would give myself some happy birthday palindromes. The reason for the plethora of palindromes is my name is a one - Marc Cram.

Here are some of my favorites:

As I pee, sir, I see Pisa!
May a moody baby doom a yam.
Eva, can I stab bats in a cave?
Yo, banana boy!
T. Eliot, top bard, notes putrid tang emanating, is sad. I'd assign it a name: gnat dirt upset on drab pot-toilet.
Go hang a salami; I'm a lasagna hog.
Drat Saddam, a mad dastard!

There's a "Yreka Bakery" in Yreka California. This is somewhere I definitely have to go.

The most famous palindrome (other than me) is "Madam, I'm Adam."

Surprisingly there are other Marc Cram - there are even two of us that live here in Las Vegas. I've been in contact with a few of them from time to time.

The most famous of us is a guy who runs an investment group called Cram Investment Group.
A musician - Marc Cram 
An Actor - Marc Cram

My theory is that we're all evil clones of a Elvis.

To end this rambling tribute to myself I present the longest palindrome by Dan Hoey

8 Bit - Pink Floyd

It's 3:10 AM on a Sunday morning. A couple of days before a birthday I don't want to remember. So, I thought I thought you might want to join me in a little Pink Floyd - 8bit Chiptune style. I'm a fan of good Chiptune music. This is the kind of thing you'd hear on your NES or Amiga or Apple IIe.

Sit back and enjoy the sweet music of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.
