Vinylhosen

I ran into mastering engineer extraordinaire Dieter Kommschmacher at the gym today. The Cars "You're All I've Got Tonight" had just come up on the Shuffle when I noticed Dieter happily straining away on the Leg Tech "Butt-Blaster."

"Hey, Dieter!," I said. "Ass is lookin' good! What have you been working on?"

"Johnny Five." (Grunt) "Wieder."

"Really?"

"Wirklich. Das Projekt ist auf so langes gegangen, daß ich eine überholte Version des Retrospect verwenden muß, um Backup, zu bilden zu halten!" (Particularly hearty grunt.) "Aber, da Hasselhoff heraus ein Album nicht in eine lange Zeit eingesetzt hat, kann ich die Arbeit benutzen. Meinen gesamten Personal zu halten ausgestattet mit Vinylhosen ist- kostspielig!" (Grunt)

Dieter went on to pontificate, at CONSIDERABLE length, about gas prices, the scarcity of analog tape, the superiority of Olivier's 'Hamlet' compared to that sniveling upstart Kenneth Branagh, his deep suspicion about the existence of "weather," and the injustice of a world without a "Welcome Back, Kotter" movie adaption.

Actually, I don't speak German, but I'm pretty sure that's what he was talking about. Right about then I noticed how awkward it was for me to be talking to a grown man while he was using the Leg Tech "Butt-Blaster."
