Just a taste of the useless knowledge

It seems some readers are having trouble catching my references, (See the nine, yes 9 comments attached to my last blog). Will Ferrell plays Ron Burgandy in the film "Anchorman." In the film he says among other great lines "Great Odin's Raven," and I decided to use that line in m,y last blog, who cares why it was four days ago, let's move on. What's really killing me is that these comments are fixated on the sheaves fracas. Now I still couldn't tell you what sheave is, but I can tell you Burl Ives has recorded a version of it. I can also tell you that on the 70's-80's long running drama "Little House on the Prairie" everytime the Ingals were in church, the congregation would always sing "Bringing in the Sheaves", like that was the only hymn they knew. Merlin Olsen ex-NFLer and broadcaster was also an actor, among other great roles like the butler in "Mitchel" Olsen potrayed Father Murphy, late in the shows run, long after the sheaves had been brought in wherever they are brought. The character Father Murphy would be spun off into his own series, wait for it, --"Father Murphy." The show failed, and so did Olsen's career as a TV star.

For the record, "and I loot..." is from the Desmond Dekkar classic "007 (Shanty Town). Apparently some of readers haven't gotten there yet, they're still rocking out to the new Motorhead. By the way, when is the new Big Chief record coming out?

Mofo on the corner...Mofo!

best part of the little house/sheaves correlation is that in the last episode, as the denizens of walnut grove destroy their town rather than let corrupt businessmen have it, they explode it with dynamite while singing....you guessed it shiteyes

dub,

okay i'll do this in order cause there's so much to work with. well played.

i think that there is a collapsable wormhole in the closet at good ol 221 where joe's garage disappeared into, along with my copy of "queens village rocks". i think when we fianlly get in there we will find the ancient shuggoth god cthulu rocking out to "titties and beer" or perhap "kuru" by reanimator. i think i will refer to your kids as your hooligans from here on in because initials are very seventies waitaminute we will call them AJR overdrive. taking care is business. TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS!!!!!!!

mötörhead head comment. well played.

keep going with the sheave queries as often as you like. so long as i get to look at that photo of burls ive's sexy bath photo. bringing in the ewwwwwwwwww.

all of my photos are sid3eways because i point and shoot. i don't aim most of the time. the chevron post was more of a commentary on the price of gas in western texas after spending 2.03 a gallon most of the way across.

track 12 is a much less creepy choice of sign off than track 18

dub,

i'll look next time i'm there.

y-y-y-y-y-y-y-you ain't seen nothin yet

i drink bombay. tanqueray is lacking in a certain quality. besides i associate it with an older crowd.

you should get off dubya's dilsnick on that one. the price was high because there isn't another gas station until you get to new mexico

amazon.com search for double platinum. we all have our tricks

the rest of the clan chooses not to chime in. COWARDS! I CALL YOU OUT FAMILY AND FRIENDS! j3k is a good friend of mine from fortress manhasset.

scabfo, that's pretty funny. he should get all upons with you for that. that is a post in and of itself

There is vinyl under the drafting table, there you will find QV Rocks. My copies of Number of the Beast and the White Album are mine. The White Album I recieved from CEMA (Capitol Recs.) when I used to do inventory for them in house. Number of the Beast was liberated from exile like so many other of my cds. Joe's Garge is alive and well sipping a Daquiri in the lobby of a hoiday inn wearing a pink carnation. And I thought the Big Chief line was the best.
