They've been trying to reach me about my vehicle's extended warranty. Good thing they called while I was recording!

Your Name's Not Warren!

A little Shakespearean silliness.

This nice scammer sent me this nice email. It would've been rude of me not to call them.

Atone Again (Naturally)

Performed by Marc Hoffman and the Bungaloafers
Lyrics © 2016 by Mike Pollock
Music by Gilbert O’Sullivan

(intro)

Oh We had Rosh Hashanah last week
And so now it's forgiveness I seek
It’s time for HaShem to once again
Reopen that book He keeps
I hope that he’ll inscribe
My name there in-side
So like ev'ry Jew
On Yom Kippur who
Says for what I’ve done wrong I’m sorry
I’m standing in the shul, which is full of people praying
It might seem tough, but sure enough
It’s where I’ll be ohmeining
The shofar will be blown
I know I’m not alone
Atone Again, Naturally.

The Hazzan is the first to pray
With a mournful Kol Nidre
I skip drink and food, shlug kapores, too
Wear sneakers and don’t wash my face
And before the sun goes down
Five times I’ll be shteeble-bound
I’ll be davening till the evening
Though my soul is torn to pieces
All the day is spent
In repentance and confession
Tzedakah goes to those in need
Out of my possession
You know where I’ll be
This yontif join with me
Atone Again, Naturally

I start to realize
There’s a lot of awful things I’ve done
Folks I’ve offended
Though unintended
What did I do?
What did I do?

(Break)

Atone Again, Naturally
 
And so at this time ev’ry year
While it may bring a lot of tears
It keeps me and my wife in the Book of Life
With the kinderlach I hold dear
But it’s all about the soul
The spirit that keeps us whole
For we understand what Hashem commands
And He never can be forsaken
Though our year may start
With our hearts so badly broken
You’ll never hear complaints from me
When sacred prayers are spoken
For one entire day
Repent, confess and pray
Atone Again, Naturally
Atone Again, Naturally

Atone Again (Naturally)…

Y'see ya can't please everyone so ya got to write a song parody to vent your feelings creatively.

On Kellie Parker's last day at SEGA, Dr. Eggman used his Echelon-Bot to hack into her voicemail where he left her some messages. Eeeeevil messages.

All right, so they're not so evil.

Kellie Parker's Voicemail

Actually, it's a poem by Fastidious Beaver.

Old Christmas Tree

From February 8, 2003.

I wrote these topical song parodies as work assignments for a radio comedy syndication company. They were played on radio stations nationwide.

All lyrics written by Mike Pollock. Produced and sung by others.

We Just Lost Our Neighbor

Go, Inspectors, Go!

I was minding my own business when a website popped up, titled "Reported Phishingsite may Ahead!" with a dire warning that my computer could be infected with spyware.

I was intrigued and simply had to call the number on the screen. I accidentally disconnected, but the helpful offshore support team was kind enough to call me back. Then this happened.

Stop It, It's Hot In Here

Siblings should share, but this may truly be the shame of the city.

Dishin' Tech And Talkin' Digital (Discrete Stereo)

I've come to make an announcement!

May the road rise up to meet you.

May the wind be always at your back.

May the sun shine warm upon your face;

the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,

may the deity of your choice hold you in the palm of His hand.

I hate that hedgehog!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I've Come To Make An O'Nnouncement
