BoyJake's Breakfast Blog

After my Wendy's encounter the other day it occurred to me that I've been thinking about breakfast a lot. I haven't been thinking about breakfast in terms of breakfast the meal, breakfast the broad concept or even "What the fuck do I want for breakfast?" It's more like many of my most recent and random thoughts seem to be somehow breakfast related and in that I don't feel like writing about anything else, I'm wondering if I shouldn't just change this into a full time Breakfast Blog.

Before I change the name of this weblog to BoyJake's Breakfast Blog, I'm going to try a couple of entries and see how it goes.

All I Wanna Eat/ Is Cap'N Crunch


The supermarket that I frequent in the university town where I live has satellite radio and the music played on that satellite radio is responsible for much of what gets stuck in my head. Sheryl Crowe's 1993 hit "All I Wanna Do" is a recent plague to my aural memory. But one morning I decided that it could easily be a jingle for Cap'N Crunch cereal. Now the lyrics "All I Wanna Eat/ Is Cap'N Crunch" run through my head to the tune of Ms. Crowe's melody. The bad news is that I can't think of any other lyrics. I imagine they would have to involve cutting the roof of one's mouth, but that concept never seems to translate itself into the proper rhyme scheme or syllable count for the melody. For me anyway. But I'm not a songwriter. Feel free to take a crack at it yourself. If you can convince Ms. Crowe to sell her rights and the good folks at Quaker to buy your idea maybe you could take me out for a beer or somethin'.

Thanks for playing.
