Match Game 1

MG 1, Question "B" (MG '76).
Gene: You know, they say that KING KONG had reeeaally bad breath.
Audience: How bad was it?
Gene:...It was so bad, you could tell all he ate was a steady diet of *BLANK*.

Match Game 1

I have never been a regular, long-term blogger. I rather enjoy reading what other people have to say, and making an occasional - generally snide - comment. However, as I was catching up on the volumes of "Match Game '76" on the DVR, I thought of a way to sneak back into Bloggerland, without being only a consumer:

Match Game 1 (MG76): Gloria was kicked out of the marching band when she got her *BLANK* stuck in a tuba.

Please feel free to respond. Exceptional answers will be acknowledged. Check back again soon...more to come

Wish I were there

For all involved:
I am sorry not to be able to be with y'all this weekend in the Classic City.
I love the place, the man, the gathering, and you all.
I know that you will do a fine job for the Guest of Honor.
I am looking forward to soon hosting 2 of the Deacons from the Church of Roast, Athens chapter.
Be good.

"He's bonafied."

I just had to try and decipher this swurvy word (sfgkzpwb) to verify a posing comment. Geesh! What is that, like, a handful of characters all curly and italicized and $hit. Pretty soon they'll have us trying to type in whole of Canterbury Tales BACKWARDS just for a 2-word comment. Dang.

"Alleluia!....Holy $hit! Where's the Tylenol?"

I had the tele on for a little distraction earlier today.
An old re-run of Cheers. Frasier's bachelor party before marrying Lilith.

At the party, the guys went around the room saying who they'd like for themselves, even "for just one night." Here's the eighties for you:

Random guy: "Ooh. Kim Bassinger, and give me '9 1/2 Weeks.'"
(Laughter)
Sam Malone: "I'll round up to ten."
(Bigger laugh)

Norm Peterson: "Jill Eikenberry."
Group: "Huh? Who?"
Norm: "You know on L.A. Law. That good looking gal that married the short dumpy guy. There's just something about her..."
(Laugh)

Frasier: "Lilith Sternin."
Group: "Oh c'mon, geeze, etc."
Frasier: "Oh, OK. Loni Anderson. She's got a set of oom-pahs that John Philip Sousa would kill for."

Post

I am pinched for time here lately, and will be through next weekend's celebratory activities. Suffice it to say that this week will bring about the (ceremonial) change in command in my little corner of the world. It has been wild: an emotional month, and things are just gettin' started. There will be lots to blog about. But not right now.
