Training Montage:

So, the date still has not been set and, as far as I know, the sign-spinning sound selections have not been set in stone. But that doesn’t mean that I’m taking a holiday. I’m getting ready for the challenge! Normally, movies have training montages (it’s like a slideshow in the movie with snippets of working out and running up stairs), but how do you train for something like this?

I’ve been trying to spend at least an hour a day listening to Izzy Lyon spinning videos. Let me tell you something, it’s hard! Do you know what it’s like to try to keep your eyes closed knowing that Izzy is there in all his glory? It’s like smelling a delicious raccoon on the grill and not getting to taste it. But I got to keep my eye on the prize.

Now, I’m hungry for grilled raccoon. Heading to the chest freezer!

Izzy Spin Sound Challenge Parameters have been Set:

Okay, so you know how I was challenged by “Craig” that I couldn’t tell Izzy Lyon’s signature sign spinning sound? Well, after a bunch of wheeling and dealing at the VFW, the rules have been decided.

Rules

  1. I am to be blindfolded so as not to receive any outside signals from anyone.
  2. Dave is in charge of playing the selected sounds on his phone.
  3. The selections will be acapella spinning sound only, no music.
  4. Anyone who wants to can submit sound choices but…
  5. Joyce will approve the sound list (She is the arbiter and not betting).
  6. Best of 7 rounds wins.

This just got real real!
