Thanks to all the folks who participated in the inaugural lyrics quiz, but did not bother to add an entry to the comments. Your participation was valued nonetheless.
Congratulations to my old college pal “Silbert,” who take first place with nine out of a possible twenty points. (One point each for song and artist.) If I should ever put out a Tom Musial DVD, or comedy CD, or make t-shirts with a hilarious catchphrase, he’ll be sure to get one.
Anyway, answers are after the jump.
Welcome to a NEW feature at TomMusial.com: The Friday Lyrics Quiz!
Listed below are ten sets of lyrics. Without using the Internet, enter the song name and artist name for each lyric into the comments. Winners will be feted by TomMusial.com fans far and wide.
Hint: in today’s quiz, either the song name or the band name contains the word New.
An inauspicious return to the comedy scene: I showed up at 9:00 for an 8:00 show. Instead of meeting my goal of increasing my vote count from 1 to 2, I reduced it to zero.
Also, my Terrelle Pryor joke bombed.
Things can only go up from here!
After an unexpectedly-long paternity leave, I’m hitting the stage again.
Tonight (2/14), I’m appearing in the first round of the March Madness Comedy Tournament at the Genuine Pub in Verona. Hopefully, I will do better than last year. I’m shooting to double my vote count — to two.
Next Thursday (2/21), I’ll be appearing at the Obey House in the West End.
And be sure to stop by TomMusial.com tomorrow for an exciting new feature: The TomMusial.com Friday Lyrics Quiz! It’s sure to be a blast.
No TomMusial.com fans have taken a crack at the Name That Quote contest from January 18. I guess that means the million-dollar prize will go unclaimed.
Anyway, the answers are after the jump.
Here’s a quote about the power of preparation, attributed to President Abraham Lincoln.
“If I was in an eight-hour wood-chopping contest, I would spend the first two hours sharpening my axe.
Then I would take my sharp axe and use it to kill the other people in the contest.”
Makes you think…
Here are my last four myspace taglines.
Can you name the source of the quotes? Post your guess to Comments
“So I’m back up in the game — running things to take my swing.”
“I’m looking for a dare-to-be-great situation.”
“I’m clean-cut and dapper; that’s what I’m about”
“Caught up between being a father and a prima donna”

I set up my wife’s newsreader with a subscription to TomMusial.com
Last night my wife said to me: “We’re getting cable? And I had to learn about it from your blog?”
Tonight I predict she will say, “You wrote about what I said to you? On your blog?”
After five long years, I finally signed up for cable TV again. I wanted to watch more Penguins hockey games, so I chose a package with the Versus channel, which carries a bunch of NHL games.
Unfortunately, I ended up with the Verses channel, the 24-hour poetry channel.
Crap.
This article describes a large drill that is being used to bore a hole underneath the Allegheny River, to be used for the extension to Pittsburgh’s subway.
I’ve heard this machine described as a 500-Ton Boring Machine.
500-Ton Boring Machine? I can’t decide whether this is a great name for a band (“Put your hands together, Buffalo, for 500-Ton Boring Machine!”) or a good insult for that annoying co-worker. (“Don’t go into the break room if Bill’s in there. He’s a 500-Ton Boring Machine.”)
On further thought, I think I’m going to choose the insult. Mainly because I don’t have a band.
