brought to you by Quizilla

Work today was busy, one of the troubleshooters is on vacation this week, so I was on service all day. I ended up in Proctorville. Today I had to go into two attics,including having to kinda low crawl spread out over some sheetmetal to repair a splice. I also buried a line to a house on my last call, so with all the dodging, ducking, dipping,diving, and dodging, along with digging, I was pretty beat by the time I got home, so dinner was at Taco Hell, then it was off to Walmart to buy some Motrin and now I'm home having a homebrew and listening to some bluegrass.

now before I break out the pipe, here's a bit of

Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

From Youngstown, Ohio, Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini
A lightweight contender, like father like son
He fought for the title with Frias in Vegas
And he put him away in round number one

Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

When Alexis Arguello gave Boom Boom a beating
Seven weeks later he was back in the ring
Some have the speed and the right combinations
If you can't take the punches it don't mean a thing

Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon

When they asked him who was responsible
For the death of Du Koo Kim
He said, "Someone should have stopped the fight, and told me it was him."
They made hypocrite judgments after the fact
But the name of the game is be hit and hit back

Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
