TuNesDay: What is your Mount Everest Tune?

The Waters Wake Up Call with Mike Waters · Tue Jan 31, 2023

Who used all the Wi-Fi?

Ah, apartment life.

Bad Wi-Fi, mystery laundry piles, and a roommate who says, I'll Venmo you.

Maybe 2027 deserves an upgrade.

Coming August 2027, Four Lakes Properties introduces the brand new Union Station Apartments, furnished in-unit washer and dryer.

Internet included a great central downtown location, one to five bedroom apartments, and no double occupancy fees.

That's less adulting and more actually enjoying where you live.

Union Station Apartments, now leasing from Four Lakes Properties.

Wait, we have a washer and dryer in the apartment?

Hey,

Waters here from The Waters Wake.

I've called this morning.

For Tuesday, we were talking about the song we would love to hear as soon as we got to the top of Mount Everest.

Van Halen?

Dream.

Last time we did this about a year and a half ago, and you called, you said Van Halen, but you did not say dreams.

I didn't.

No.

What else would you have said?

Let's go back in time and find out with a flashback.

It can be Van

Halen.

Okay.

Top of the world.

Was it a remake of the Carpenters' tune?

I'm on top of the world looking.

Hey, down on creation.

Down on

creation.

See, I'm afraid of heights and I'm a wimp, so I will never, ever climb Mount Everest.

Climb every mountain.

Nope.

Well, you know what?

We should get together and go mole hill climbing at some point.

I could handle that a little bit better, I

believe.

Okay, we'll make a mountain out of a, oh no, we'll make a mole hill out of a mountain.

There we go.

There we go.

This is Jake from Waterloo.

Jake from Waterloo or State Farm?

What are you wearing?

Jake from State Farm?

Uh, khakis.

She sounds

hideous.

Well, it's a guy.

So, uh, Jake, what is your top of Mount Everest song?

Beared in the Sky by Norman Greenbaugh.

That's a great one.

Well, you're welcome.

I should say thank you then, because you already, you're welcomed me.

What are the chances of you ever climbing a mountain?

Uh, zero.

Wait, don't stop me now.

When you're close, and there's Freddie Mercury on your tail, encouraging you to get to the top.

That would turn a supersonic man out of me.

Yeah.

I'm a supersonic woman anyway.

Well, yeah, even without that song, Gail would have been a supersonic woman anyway.

Yes.

I've got chills just thinking about it, Gail.

Yes, you make my morning every morning,

so I'm

happy to make yours.

Okay.

On whether or not I need an SOS to get

down.

Okay, Abba.

Abba.

Or on top of the world, looking down, you know?

Looking down on creation, man.

Because of how philosophical I'm being,

you know?

Right.

Maybe Carpenters first, so you're on top of the world and you're looking at everything and then you suddenly think, uh-oh, how do I get down?

and then the Ava plays and hopefully the Sherpa can lead you.

My

Sherpa, and my Sherpa, his name is Frank, from playing all these pranks on him, he'd probably just push me off the mountain.

So we'd both be falling off a

mountain.

Oh, that would make sense wouldn't it?

Yeah.

I think Mount Everest is the stairway to heaven.

Mount Everest is the stairway to heaven.

Yeah, I think we agree on that.

Yeah, I was just telling my wife what you said.

Actually, you get up there and then it's an elevator that takes you the rest of the way, but stare out of heaven.

That sounds like kind of a perfect tune for that.

Well, I'll tell you what, you're a cool

guy, man.

You have a good day.

Well, thanks, man.

You're pretty stinking cool, too, and especially your Zeppelin-lovin' wife.

Yeah.

All right.

Have a great day, man.

OK, I

agree.

My song would have been Jim and I Dream.

Why Jim and I Dream?

Because I was on my bicycle.

and fell off, it was really fast.

So you rode your bike up Mount Everest?

No,

but

probably wouldn't make it up Mount Everest.

On a bike?

No, I don't know if that's ever been done.

I guess it depends on what kind of a bike.

First of all, it'd have to be a mountain bike.

Yeah,

and I

only have a cruise bike.

Oh, a cruise bike.

And my key broke off in my lock last

week.

Oh.

I didn't have a lock on it.

And I'd say you should not ride your bike up Mount Everest.

If you can't lock it up, I wouldn't ride it up a mountain.

But it's got 21 skis.

My

hands have ours right up in them.

Oh.

Which is a bad thing.

Yes.

Then I would really not ride your bike up the mountain.

And I didn't want to go.

This morning I was talking about this gigantic boulder that rolled through a woman's house in Hawaii.

Honestly,

listen.

Does

this happen often, I wondered?

Well, thank goodness the Hawaiian called.

That's

kind of a current.

Is it really?

Yeah.

Oh, I think I've lost the Hawaiian.

I hope it wasn't a boulder.

I don't know.

Oh, maybe that's her.

Hello?

Sorry about that.

Did a boulder hit your car, Hawaiian?

No, it hit my phone.

But as you're driving along the freeways, it looks like...

up against the cliffs in the wire fencing.

Yeah.

That's actually to keep the boulders from coming down.

How effective is that?

Actually, it works pretty good.

You know, I thought maybe that was fake.

Just a lot of boulder dash.

Sorry, sorry.

Very good.

Very good.

I had to.

I know, I

know.

Weekday mornings, 5.30 to

10.

Who used all the Wi-Fi?
