<p>I have no idea what this is supposed to be. I wish I did, because I love fun-tastic novelty underpants as much as the next guy, provided the next guy doesn&#8217;t particularly like fun-tastic novelty underpants.</p>
<p>Maybe I just need to see the <em>cute little poem</em> that comes with it, and then I&#8217;ll understand. I tried writing my own, but I couldn&#8217;t think of anything that rhymed with WHY IS THERE A CORN COB TIED TO YOUR UNDERPANTS.</p>
<p>Hey, I know!  Why don&#8217;t you figure it out? Leave your best <em>cute little poem</em> in the comments, and the poem I like the best will win <a href="http://images.regretsy.com/surprisebox.jpg"rel="lightbox">this box of shit</a>.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be over here, counting my Vicodin.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=35234030" target="_blank"><img src="http://images.regretsy.com/varga.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>If you only know me from this site, then you don&#8217;t know about <a href="http://www.aprilwinchell.com/audio/" target="_blank">my deep and abiding love of bizarre music</a>.  So it&#8217;s with a huge boner that I present the first audio Regretsy, <em>River of Love by Varga.<br />
</em><br />
I would describe Varga as a cross between a drunken David Byrne, and Lou Reed with a head injury.  I predict big things for this guy, who really knows his way around a Casio. </p>
<p>I have given you three excerpts from this CD; 15 tracks of fucking awesome which I purchased and downloaded faster than the drum track on almost everything.* </p>
<p>First up, <em>Love Train</em>.</p>
<p><div id="haiku-player4" class="haiku-player"></div><div id="player-container4" class="player-container"><div id="haiku-button4" class="haiku-button"><a title="Listen to " class="play" href="http://www.regretsy.com/audio/varga_lovetrain_excerpt.mp3"><img alt="Listen to " class="listen" src="http://www.regretsy.com/wp-content/plugins/haiku-minimalist-audio-player/resources/play.png"  /></a>
		
		<ul id="controls4" class="controls"><li class="pause"><a href="javascript: void(0);"></a></li><li class="play"><a href="javascript: void(0);"></a></li><li class="stop"><a href="javascript: void(0);"></a></li><li id="sliderPlayback4" class="sliderplayback"></li></ul></div>
	</div><!-- player_container-->
	
<br />
</p>
<p> I am especially intrigued by a synthesized cat sound that comes in at the :08 mark, and appears again every seven or eight seconds.</p>
<p>Next up, I <em>Am the Enemy</em>.</p>
<p><div id="haiku-player5" class="haiku-player"></div><div id="player-container5" class="player-container"><div id="haiku-button5" class="haiku-button"><a title="Listen to " class="play" href="http://www.regretsy.com/audio/varga_iamtheenemy_excerpt.mp3"><img alt="Listen to " class="listen" src="http://www.regretsy.com/wp-content/plugins/haiku-minimalist-audio-player/resources/play.png"  /></a>
		
		<ul id="controls5" class="controls"><li class="pause"><a href="javascript: void(0);"></a></li><li class="play"><a href="javascript: void(0);"></a></li><li class="stop"><a href="javascript: void(0);"></a></li><li id="sliderPlayback5" class="sliderplayback"></li></ul></div>
	</div><!-- player_container-->
	
<br />
</p>
<p><em>I Am the Enemy </em>asks the question, &#8220;Who is the enemy?&#8221;, thereby ruining the surprise ending.  More importantly, this showcases Varga&#8217;s uncanny multi-tracking, making you think for just a moment that there are two enemies.</p>
<p>And finally, <em>Only Love.</em></p>
<p><div id="haiku-player6" class="haiku-player"></div><div id="player-container6" class="player-container"><div id="haiku-button6" class="haiku-button"><a title="Listen to " class="play" href="http://www.regretsy.com/audio/varga_onlylove_excerpt.mp3"><img alt="Listen to " class="listen" src="http://www.regretsy.com/wp-content/plugins/haiku-minimalist-audio-player/resources/play.png"  /></a>
		
		<ul id="controls6" class="controls"><li class="pause"><a href="javascript: void(0);"></a></li><li class="play"><a href="javascript: void(0);"></a></li><li class="stop"><a href="javascript: void(0);"></a></li><li id="sliderPlayback6" class="sliderplayback"></li></ul></div>
	</div><!-- player_container-->
	
<br />
</p>
<p>Listen carefully for the subtle sound effect at the :17 mark.</p>
<p>I urge you to go and buy <em>River of Love</em> immediately, if only to play without comment during Christmas dinner, thereby cutting the evening short, and allowing you to get back to your porn.</p>
<p><em>*I actually purchased this from CD Baby to insure I could download it immediately, and not have to wait by the mailbox like Greyfriars Bobby.</em></p>
