The Happy Spot is the little place behind the administration building at Harbor High halfway between the Pirate's Port and Graphic Arts. The Happy Spot Crew hung out there and hated everyone, and talked vocally about how much everyone sucked. We were nerds, freaks, and deviants, and a high percentage SubGenii. Others took part in our recorded rants as well, and credit shall be given when it can be understood who is speaking.
- K-HBR This mocking of the campus radio station was scripted by Zog and Garote in physics class. We recorded it on-campus at the Happy Spot in 1993, after one brief rehearsal. If you listen closely you can hear Zog being called to the office in the background. 1729k
- Red Ribbon Week Another skit written by Zog and Garote in Physics class, this one mocks the campus-wide 'Red Ribbon' anti-drug promotion. Once again we recorded it at the Happy Spot in 1993, after a single rehearsal. The jazz background was added later, when it was dubbed onto the 'Alex in Japan' tape. ('Wonderful Copenhagen', played by the Dave Brubeck Quartet.) 1752k

- Rocky The Rooster Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 - Part 4 - Part 5 - Part 6 - Long before a certain plasticine movie character appropriated the name, we recorded the first of our commercials starring Rocky the Rooster.

The Camping Trip ...
One week in the summer of 1993, eight members of the Happy Spot Crew took a trip up north to Wild Plum Campground, just outside of Sierra City (population 255). We brought Android's Ultramo-Spiffy Recordo Box with us and caught some really fine moments on tape. Feast your ears on our distilled audio glory! Yaaay!!

The Second Camping Trip ...
Our second journey to Wild Plum Campground up in the Sierras was just as fruitful as the first. Between them, Andy and Skot brought along two tape recorders and more than a dozen blank tapes. Many turgid skits and awful songs were born! These are listed in the order we recorded them.
