Hey Mog, what's crack-a-latin'?...I'll make this short and sweet...I've been playing the "can I put you on hold game" with IT dudes all day while trying to get all my IDs in order on this gig I'm working for a couple of weeks...it's mostly film archiving which is very boring...I'm an idea man, I thrive in creative circumstances...ok, bitching and moaning will desist...*NOW* as I take this moment of holding a telephone receiver cradled in my ear to conclude my little trip back into the 80s with a couple of cuts from one of my favorite films/ soundtracks from that era...Ferris Beuller's Day Off...I'm looking out the window onto sunny Los Angeles wishing I could be out on the PCH...the top down...listening to The Flowerpot Men...shite...two more hours...tick, tock...

...this is that classic English Beat ska joint that was playing when Ferris was running back home...didn't really know the genre in 1986...but I knew I liked it...

Crash Pryor! Master of Time and Space! (Bringing us back, back, back...) "Shoot it up!" I believe you already established the "Ferris" reference in "Family Guy" when they used the Beat track during a Stewie-runs-wild-thru-the-'burbs sequence. But the Flowerpot Men and SSS? It's enuf you make you holler, "Buellllerrrrr!?!"

@charles: I don't do the Wayne Newton...Elvis, Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. are as "Vegas-y" as I can get (well, I like a couple of Charlie "the Silver Fox" Rich's cuts but that's about it)...
@Mikey: yeah, man...and oddly enough it was a video I'd put on a comment to the chuck-ster...I liked the tune (and we couldn't load mp3 players aback then you're slapping a 'geezer' date on all of us...(next month will be a fekkin' year on here)...my how time flies when you start talking tunage...(and avoiding the news)...
Mike the Knife says
The news? What's that? (I'd like to think that "Scooter" is one of Archie's fellow students at Riverdale High; a "Mullah" is a really goofy haircut; and "Bush" is the pot o' gold at the end of the party rainbow. But unfortunately, reality bites.)

...I beg your "pardon"...ha ha ho...I was saying on CooP's post...I don't think he'll get pardoned until deep into '08 (that way he can still hide behind the 5th-- were he pardoned now he'd have to (re) perjure himself and that would put certain people on notice...my gut instincts told me that something like the above "*weeks ago*":http://chronicridicule.blogspot.com/2007/06/lying-ass-bitches-2nd-coming.html ...gone are the days when his stovepipe hat and handlebar mustache let you know where a man stood...these days you can't tell who's in kahoots...but maybe I'm just crazy...
