  1. A translated "do not play" list for the former Soviet Republic (courtesy Alice Cooper) - (Madness was a Punk band? Who knew?)
  2. "That damn Timmy kid is in the well again!"
  3. Only works if the parents know. I did the DNA test & came back with <1% - I had thought there was a chance I was because my GGGrandfather was from a town in Ukraine that was only a few miles from a Jewish town and there were people there with the same rare surname. Then my German/Irish/Scot Mother took the test & returned 4% Jewish - one heck of a surprise to her. Nobody in the family knows where it would have come from. Her ancestors came over on the boat with the Wesley's and became big time Methodists because of it.
  4. No way of knowing unless you have your DNA tested.
  5. Shrimp, scallops, crab, salmon - Crawfish too, if you're counting them. Had fish & chips made with batter dipped salmon once, it was amazing! Went back months later & it was gone from the menu. Used to like lobster, but the last 2 times my skin got itchy & my veins were visibly red on my skin so no more of that.
  6. Man How much did you pay for this? Praline Sixty quid, and eight guineas for the fruit bat. Man What fruit bat? Praline Eric the fruit-bat. Man Are all your pets called Eric? Praline There's nothing so odd about that: Kemal Ataturk had an entire menagerie, all called Abdul! Man No he didn't! Praline (takes book from pocket) He did, he did, he did, he did and did. There you are. 'Kemal Ataturk, the Man' by E. W. Swanton with a foreword by Paul Anka, page 91, please. Man (referring to page 91) I owe you an apology, sir. Praline Spoken like a gentleman, sir. Now, are you going to give me a fish license? Man I promise you that there is no such thing. You don't need one. Praline Then I would like a statement to that effect signed by the Lord Mayor. Fanfare of trumpets. Mayor gorgeously dressed with dignitaries enters flanked by trumpeters. Man You're in luck.
  7. Wonder if "Mr. Wolf" used them?
  8. I would, but Affogatoboutit.
  9. Don't forget Tony Sinclair...
  10. It's Eric!
  11. Jeez, it's not like they're pedos.
  12. What you afraid of, guy?
  13. Beauty is only skin deep... ...but UGLY goes all the way to the bone!
  14. Me too. Co-written with Paul McCartney. There was a story years ago that I read in some music mag where Costello was at a function with a bunch of other musical celebs. He was talking with or near Bonnie Bramlett (Delaney & Bonnie) and said something derogatory about Ray Charles, using the "N" word. Bonnie hauled off and decked him. A friend later told me that he'd heard that Costello said it because he didn't like Bramlett and was trying to piss her off. Either way, I stopped listening to his music for a long time after I heard it. Apparently it was true, but I didn't hear the bit about James Brown... http://ultimateclassicrock.com/elvis-costello-racist-remarks/
  15. Mgr: "I didn't say you're getting fired, I said you're gonna get cut!"
  16. I blame Chuck U. Farley.
  17. http://wgntv.com/2018/05/29/wrigleyville-taco-bell-employee-stabbed-by-manager/ Wonder if he used one of those little plastic knives?
  18. "eloquently"? "Elegantly" would work.
  19. I like smoke and lightning... Heavy Metal Thunder
  20. I have enough trouble remembering the 5th of November.
  21. There were 3 of them, but one is missing.
