From a divine perspective, “pop” would just about cover it.
Did you butter and grill that sammie?
We referee to that combination as an Elvis down this way.
Didn’t use to be either.
If fact, I wouldn’t consider even tasting kraut for near 50 years.
But in past few years started purposely trying things that I hated or ignored as a young’en.
Got ahold of some very well made kraut on a sandwich at a local pub and have since changed my mind. That a whole lot of years worth of Rubin’s that I could’a been enjoying.
Oh, Paulie? Won't see him no more...
Or maybe a bazooka.
Better yet, an RPG.
That might be more effective.
Overly deep Simpsons reference from an episode called: “Marge and the Monorail”
Don’t know that I’d worry about it much beyond that.
War of the World video
Rather geeky Prog-Rock double-album based on the story from the late 70s.
(don’t know that I’d worry too much about that one either)
Yeah, well…
When I was a young’en me and some friends actually had a printed copy of the script from Holy Grail and would occasionally get together, divide up the parts and read through it when there was nothing better to do.
Consequently, I know even some of the more obscure quips from that film. Both the “Build a bridge” line and the “fair Cop” line are from the same conversation as “turned me into a Newt”.
Here’s the transcript
WITCH: [To herself] ’Tis a fair cop.
Anyway…
Being as Dumbledore actually is a witch as well, it would have been a fair cop against him too.
It was even better than I expected, ton's of pics and notes. Once I finish exams I will start on my trip report and finish it this time
I used to fly at minimum every other week when I worked in the oil patch! So 150 could be a low ball
You both hang out at burger joints!
I will end up doing that in Orlando me thinks
Makes sense, I don't have this problem, the wetter the better. I got soaked on GRR more than any other time
Thanks Meghan.No worries, we'll be here. Hope everything is okay.
I hope everything with the family is OK.....
And after the shout outs....looking forward to the next update!
I have tried a Rubin,
Oh... about 20 years ago.
And there it is.
And you know what?
I never knew what
she said there.
No clue.
So I wrote it off.
Now I know.
Oh you are so missing Out! Ruebens are my total guilty pleasure. Not only do I make a halfway decent one I know of several local places to get great ones.
We had a group in HS who would get together. Band geeks, go figure. And we would watch the movies. We could quote almost every line in time with the movie. But I had no idea they said cherries! I knew the lines, small rocks, and that in the end she conceded, "tis a fair copf" plus a whole lot more worthless lines as well.
Thanks Tracy.Hope all is okay! We'll be here, don't worry!
I'll pick up the check
at our next meal.
Congrats!
Figured.
Then...
"Wait. What if he actually
doesn't know?"
Betting it'll be sooner.
How much "Daaaaad! You promised!"
can you endure?
Well... you'll notice I snuck
my camera the second time.
Of course it was my P&S
which I hid in a buttoned
pocket before boarding.
I used to do that...
But only when I don't have
a carry-on.
I want to get on early
so I can put it in the overhead bin.
I do NOT want it at my feet!
I am around, folks.
Just some family issues
keeping me busy.
And there it is.
And you know what?
I never knew what
she said there.
No clue.
So I wrote it off.
Now I know.
Looking forward to it!
Ah!
Yeah, that'd explain it.
We took her on Kali... once.
She will never do that again.
She was miserable.
Yeah, that one’s from the KJVI remember that passage.
"Let there be pop."
Limitations!Nope!
Even I have my limitations!
The more important consideration would be just how good the corned beef was.I have tried a Rubin,
Oh... about 20 years ago.
Nope.
Then again....
It probably wasn't the best
sauerkraut on the planet.
Maybe next Halloween you can put it on in the background one evening.While I appreciate you're finding that,
I simply don't have an hour
to spare to listen to it!
Easily bemused, are we?Maybe some day when I'm...
not....... busy...... !!!!!
Sorry. Sometimes I crack
myself up.
Probably just as well.Lettin' that one go too.
And it was!Dang.
That sounds like a blast!
Useless memories…Thanks for the stroll
down memory lane!
Band Geek as well! <<raises hand>>We had a group in HS who would get together. Band geeks, go figure. And we would watch the movies. We could quote almost every line in time with the movie. But I had no idea they said cherries! I knew the lines, small rocks, and that in the end she conceded, "tis a fair copf" plus a whole lot more worthless lines as well.
Well, certainly if you’re at Katz's Delicatessen in NYC.So... you’re saying
it’s time I try it again.
Ding, ding, ding!I never quite understood it, either! I heard the word "fair" and took it to mean she was actually accepting the outcome.
That was easier than I expected.
Always a possibility. Because...well, I'm a dope.
Her birthday is in February, which I thought would be a great time to go. We can't go this winter, because she won't be healed up enough. I'd really like to swing a spring break trip in 2019 out to Yosemite, because Easter is especially late that year so it gives us our best chance to see waterfalls and Glacier Point. So that leaves 2020. I asked her if she'd rather do Harry Potter Land or Yosemite and she couldn't choose.
Remind me to contact you if I need something smuggled.
Sorry to hear that. Hope things calm down soon.
I never quite understood it, either! I heard the word "fair" and took it to mean she was actually accepting the outcome.
Sweet! That is one reader
Yea, I miss it sometimes...mostly the money
Last time I went Kali was either not up yet or my dad veto'd it. One day I will try it.
lastly, I hope everything with the family improves
Yeah, that one’s from the KJV
I prefer the verse as translated in the NAB: “Let there be Rock!”
(Yes, I know I’ll be struck down for that, but I’m beyond hope anyway, so no great loss)
In truth…
I’ve never had an “Elvis” either, but the Missus would make them from time to time for our young’en way back when he wasn’t quite so growed-up as a bit of a reward/treat.
The boy never complained.
The more important consideration would be just how good the corned beef was.
Then the quality (and amount) of the sour stuff comes into play.
Maybe next Halloween you can put it on in the background one evening.
It’s not hard to find out there on the ol’ inter-webs; just google Mercury Theater and it’ll pop up.
It’s interesting to hear the original along with the advertisements of the day and the point about half way through the broadcast where they “attempt” to make it clear that it’s a drama and not an actual news cast. Oh, and Well’s adlibbed explanation at the end.
You find time to write some of the best reading on these boards.
And that’s good enough for us.
Somehow or other Jeff did succeed in getting Richard Burton to do the narration and members of The Moody Blues and Thin Lizzy to do some of the vocal work. Don’t know if that makes it worth digging up, but it certainly makes it an unusual interpretation of an H G Wells work.
And it was!
We’d get to laughing so hard that sometimes we couldn’t finish a scene.
No worries…
That just meant we’d have to go back and do it again.
Useless memories…
Just one of the services I offer.
Well, certainly if you’re at Katz's Delicatessen in NYC.
Then it’d be a must.
However, I know a couple places down this way that do a decent job of it.
(and a brew-pub that sells a local made brat/kielbasa on a pretzel roll that has just enough of a nice tangy house made kraut to make it really savory)
They thought they saw a rat, maybe Remy, and are looking in to see if he's gone.Come up with your own story
Almost forgot to reply
Hot dense state. No googling, I love Big Bang Theory. Universe, Universal
