Brett Lawrie Is Doing Something
A tweet from Brett Lawrie:
So he’s working out with some degree of zeal. He’s doing deep knee bends, leg lifts and trunk twists and then finishing up with a slimming routine, especially after last night’s London Broil, green-bean casserole and gelatin salad. I get it. Right?
Although, a part of me — the part of me that thinks he hears something in the basement even when he’s not at home — believes I’m missing something. From this pathetic remove of years and brown defeats, I wonder whether he’s invoking a rock and or roll Sousa march or perhaps a popular talkie or a dance that forces The Bandstand to aim their cameras above the girdle.
Maybe he really likes to work out, or maybe he’s conjuring up a secret something known only to Young American Thunderclaps and, hence, not to wasted me. I was really hoping he was talking about exercising — good-boy’s push-ups followed by a half-hour on the vibrating belt machine followed by a restorative crap. But I’m sure he’s not.
Brett Lawrie probably talks quite a bit about things I don’t even know exist, being as I am much, much closer to death than Brett Lawrie is.
I read your opening ‘A tweet from Brett Lawrie’ line like a churchman reading gospel: ‘A reading from the book of John’.
The congregational response is, “Thanks be to baseball.”
I fear that Brett Lawrie may be baseball’s Elmer Gantry.
I saw Young American Thunderclaps open up for Bill Cosby Suicide at The Satyricon.
It’s the lyrics to a song by the group LMFAO( I hear they are popular with kids). He’s just tweeting/singing out loud.
If Lawrie liked LMFAO I would not be surprised at all.
Though I cannot be certain, it appears that Adam is submitting that Mr. Lawrie was indeed invoking a rock and or roll Sousa march, and more specifically one crafted by an ensemble with a moniker comprised of the capital letters L,M,F,A, and O. If true, this information alone should not cause one anguish, as perhaps Mr. Lawrie was immersed in a spot of rigorous physical exercise when he paused to touch-type the refrain into his handheld transceiver?
@reillocity: I believe your analysis to be accurate and generally thorough. I must however take issue with your very last point. You make the common mistake of assuming that data distributed via “social” networks is inherently done via a handheld (or otherwise wireless) transceiver. In fact, even the short-form “social” network (<140 chars) can receive information from any device capable of formatting information according to the "IP" protocol, whether tethered to reality or not.
It appears that not enough people know about this

Young AMERICAN Thunderclaps? I assume you are referring to the continent on which we all reside, rather than the political entity from which Lawrie hails?
I would fight Lawrie
hahaha you wonder why no one likes him
i’d wager he prefers aspic salad to gelatin salad.
Its an indication of his want
Wiggle, Wiggle, Wiggle,Wiggle,, Yeah !!!!
Hey could somebody else post a joke, and I will explain it for everyone else here?
