Tito Puente


Today at The Death Pool we would like to welcome a legend in Latin music,   Mister Tito Puente!

TDP:  Tito, welcome to The Death Pool.  Heaven, Hell or purgatory?

TP:  Thank you for having me and I am in heaven, my friend.

TDP:  Excellent work.  So do you feel that your other brothers, especially Michael will be following you to heaven?

TP:  Pardon me but I think you have me confused with someone else.  I have no brother named Michael.

TDP:  I know that you would rather not own up to having a brother like Michael with the allegations and all.  But you have to at least think Jermaine has a good shot of getting in.

TP:  Look here you ignorant gringo, I don't know who you're talking about.

TDP:  Maybe this will refresh your memory.  Let me sing a couple of bars for ya.  ABC easy as 123.

TP:  You are thinking I'm Tito Jackson?  I was never part of the Jackson 5.  I'm Tito Puente.  I played percussion.  Am I ringing any bells here?

TDP:  Tito Puente?..........No not getting anything here but what the hell, since we have you on the line let's hear your story.  What happened?  How did you kick it?

TP:  Well I was just finishing up a show in L.A. when I'm going back stage and Ricky Martin walks up to me.

TDP:  Ricky Martin, now him I've heard of.

TP:  Figures, you uncultured pig.  Anyway,  he tells me that I am the reason that he had gotten into music.

TDP:  That's it?  That's what did you in?

TP:  Did you hear me?  I am personably responsible for unleashing Ricky Martin on civilization.  Have you heard the music coming out of that boy?

TDP: Oh, hell yes. Let me sing a couple bars of that.  Livin la vida.................

TP:  SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!!!   I offed myself so I wouldn't have to listen to that crap anymore.   I am full of shame and remorse for what I have done to mankind.  Ricky Martin, Jenifer Lopez, Enrique Iglesias, Moby.

TDP:  Moby?

TP:  O.K. maybe not Moby but the rest of them have given my music a bad name and I couldn't stand to be a part of it anymore.  I was thinking of taking up polka music or something just to try and throw them off but have you ever tried to play an accordion?

TDP:  It ain't no piece of frito pie.

TP:  You aren't kidding.  So I am pleading to them here on your massive forum.......

TDP:  Um, Tito,  we aren't that massive.

TP:  What?  Isn't this Matt Drudge?

TDP:  No.  This is The Death Pool.  You know we interview you dead guys and in return we send you a shirt or something.

TP:  A shirt?  What kind of shit is that?  Look just try and get the word out.  Stop the madness!  Listen to Boxcar Willie or something.

BW: Yoooodle HHHHIIeeaaaahhhh.

TP:  That redneck is gonna get on my nerves.

TDP:  O.K.  We will send out an urgent plea for Moby to be stopped.

TP:  Not Moby........................Ricky!

TDP:  Yeah, whatever. Thanks for sharing, Marlon.

TP: Adios, idiot!
