027 - 27 Days

We discuss who farted, “denouement”, and Jimmy Kimmel finally makes us laugh in a rockin’ audio vault…

Opening Vignette
Mike begins by asking "who farted?" - but the conversation soon orbits around Robb's use of the word "denouement," and the surprising fact that neither Mike nor Buzz recognize the word. Mike's query remains unanswered, though various blames are laid on Frankie, Buzz and RJ.

Segment 1
Heavy day - a massive earthquake in Haiti and the devastation it caused. Mike's fear of the end of days. Oscar is scientific - it all depends on the fault lines (as does this show....). An unidentified flying object passed near the earth today, and the scientists aren't sure what it is. Space junk?...likely an asteroid. Mike thinks the object and the earthquake are clearly related. Also, that at any time we can be hit by a massive space object, without warning. Although, after mid-2012, it will no longer matter, as we will all be gone. That won't keep Mike from working on his handicap and following his dream of one day joining the Senior Tour. Robb wonders if Mike is surprised that he has lived long enough to fulfill that dream. Mike describes his fear of dying alone, especially when he has been single and alone.
