pOddcast: Bob Evans Restaurant

Shannon's dad wrote a tribute to a favorite restaurant of his, a Bob Evans in the West County suburbs of St. Louis.  The two of them, along with Orin, spent some time today recording it (with trusty old GarageBand on Orin's Mac) and we've put it on the pOddcast for all to enjoy - check for it in the gcast window in the Oddblog sidebar or over at the main site.

What's more, here are the lyrics, so you all can sing along!

I just fell in love with a restaurant!  That sounds a little crazy,  agree.
But I just couldn't help it - let me tell you what they did to me.
First there was the hostess with the smiling face,
That waitress Patio Pelt she was a wow!
And Mr. Michael Stroble applauded all his people,
Even had them all to take a bow!

Hey ma ma!  Oo pa pa!  Let the good times ring!
Come on children, jump right in, listen to your little tummy sing!
'Cause it's apple pie and chicken fried, almost anything you want!
Awesome food and a lotta grinnin' too: Bob Evans Restaurant!

If You're ever down around Valley Park, MO., at 44 and 141,
Remember what I told ya, just like me you're gonna fall in love.
I wish that I could be there just to see your face 
when you taste that very first bite,
And when you meet those people, those sweet, warm-hearted people,
You're gonna shout the rest of your life:

Hey ma ma! Oo pa pa! Let the good times ring!
Come on children, jump right in, listen to your little tummy sing!
'Cause it's apple pie and chicken fried, almost anything you want!
Awesome food and a lotta grinnin' too: Bob Evans Restaurant!
