Orange Gourd Spice Season - Guinea Pig edition

 In the spirt of the Orange Gourd Spice season, I present here - for the first time since 2017 - two guinea pigs discuss the merits of the Orange Gourd Spice. This remains one of the most topical and meaningful discussions of the subject in my lifetime.  Run time 1:04.

    1. You are welcome Nylon12. I try not to post many videos, but this remains one of my favorites. If guinea pigs could talk, this is exactly what their conversations would sound like.

  2. With just a tiny bit of force, "Pumpkin Spices" can be traded for "Hallelujah" in the chorus by Handel.
    Filling in the rest of the lyrics I leave as an exercise for those more talented than I am.

    "Song lyricist" is nowhere on my resume.

    For extra credit, do you know how to tie a pumpkin to a string?

    Use a Gordian Knot!

    Cute video, I imagine the voices would be a bit higher in pitch due to tiny vocal chords.

    I tried changing the pitch without changing the tempo using Audacity, but I could not get it to work.

    1. Thank you John. I now have that earworm in my head. I would try and find it on the Interweb, but I bet some enterprising person has done it already.

      +1 on the extra credit. You can clean the erasers after class.

    1. You are welcome Hobo. I go and look for it almost every year about this time. I laugh every time.

  5. I bought some pumpkin spice flavored coffee the other day because Dan likes flavored coffee and this is the pumpkin spice season! I have to agree with the guinea pigs on it though; barely any scent or flavor. In fact, boringly bland!

    1. Leigh, I often think it is truly a marketing tool. There are some legitimate pumpkin spiced items - generally, they involve actual pumpkin. Everything else is just artificial flavorings.

    1. They are forever sniffing anything that gets close to them in hopes it is food.
