You&#39;re listening to The STURGE on WKHR Radio - WK - HomestarRunning a Homestar Runner radio, I mean podcast. Another words, get ready for some another words on radio sounds and grammar and word choice. In other words, we talk about Strong Bad emails #120-122. We got miles and miles of the email style. Katie Eighty has found Chester Elegante&#39;s pocket watch (or maybe Homestar just found some pocket lint), and Strong Bad just might be destined to be a concession worker for life, that is unless Bubbs and he can settle their business differences.... Ummm... here&#39;s some chanting...
