Your Tuesday Laugh

From the book I started reading this morning:

Marty was grinning. “Danny Beckett,” he said with pretended awe, “Detective Supreme.”


“Detective Supreme, huh?” Jen said with a snicker.

“Yeah,” I said, “just like a regular detective, but with tomatoes and sour cream.”*

This is killing me right now. I’m going to have to make note because this is 110% something Zayne would come up with.

It's off their Comin' to Your City CD. Goofy ass song, but fun (and a great song to walk to). I just pulled them up on Spotify because I keep singing, "WHOO! JALAPENO!" and my boss is looking at me.

Hahaha - so shocked that James hasn't said that to Zayne yet (although I want to think Zayne - despite hating country music - had that as his ringtone in one story).

Pretty sure 99% of their songs could be classified as "goofy ass" songs. But they're fun. I'll have to check out Jalapeno!

I'm hella shocked James hasn't said that to Zayne... and now I'm kinda tempted to have someone say it in one of my stories... but I don't really have any cowboys. (Granted Nick is from Texas and is sorta a cowboy, but he wouldn't say it.)

Very true. Although they have a few serious ones as well. I love them so I hope you like Jalapeno! My favorite is Six Foot Town off their first album though!

Right? Like how did I miss this perfect opportunity? Hah - I'm sure he can adopt the cowboy attitude for something like this.

I like music that's fun. I don't like music that makes me cry.

I don't know... well, Greg calls him "Cowboy" in at least one series... so that might work.

For me, I like a mixture. I get bored too easily if everything is too similar. But listen to what you like, right?

Hah - it could work!

I listen a lot in the car or walking--that more than anything so I need something that makes me move.

It could! I'll have to look at it. I might even have something similar somewhere.
