The return of the[last word]thread

[arr&bee]

Hey gang,remember the famous or[infamous]last word post from some years ago,well i'm reviving it...[no i didn't start it]and i hope i don't[finish]it unless i get the last word that is...well don't just sit there type something!!!

[ralpht]

Let's see..........amen.

[JIVE FIVE Mary G.]

I don't remember this one. How does it go?

~~Mary~~

[westgrandboulevard]

Mary, you'd best check out all the emergency exits, without delay.

'Go' could well be the very last word. LOLOL

[JIVE FIVE Mary G.]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

[arr&bee]

And haha back at cha.

[144man]

In my dictionary the last word is "zymurgy".

[JIVE FIVE Mary G.]

I still don't know how this goes, but I'll say eternity.

~~Mary~~

[westgrandboulevard]

Although I've often found myself laughing at some of the comments on the SDF threads, the first three posts on this particular thread are, for me, an absolute classic sequence.

Arr&bee full of enthusiasm - followed by Ralph, who very dryly is not - and Mary innocently but also totally bewildered.

I keep returning to it, and it cracks me up every time.....:D:D:D

[moe]

There were those few threads that cracked up everyone westgrand!

[westgrandboulevard]

Show me the list sometime, moe.......

[moe]

One word: Malletcatraz..........and a few of us can verify. Ralph got a bang out of it!

[westgrandboulevard]

Sounds like 'back in the days', vintage SDF!

[ralpht]

Yeah Moe. I remember it well. You ladies were some tough cookies.

[arr&bee]

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,yep real tough...opps last word,hehehe.

[westgrandboulevard]

OK. I'm curious.....and I just KNOW I'm reeeaaally going to regret this...but.... I have to say I'm of the same thought as Mary, when she says "I don't remember this one. How does it go?......

[arr&bee]

Just keep doing what you're doing west.

[westgrandboulevard]

Y'mean, as in...Go!,West. - ?

[arr&bee]

I'm not responding because then i would have the last word...opps!!

[westgrandboulevard]

I wonder who has the last word in a crossword.....

[arr&bee]

Oh no you don't you're not gonna make me say another word...i just did didn't i.

[westgrandboulevard]

'I' is a good and very positive word - first, and last.

[Jerry Oz]

I'm glad I'm not last. Don't want to get involved with these shenanigans...

[westgrandboulevard]

Any thread you see which is started by arr&bee, you can expect shenanigans:D

[Jerry Oz]

And hooch. He'll leave when the hooch runs out. Parties with no hooch don't last.

[arr&bee]

Hooch runs out...haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ummm no.

[144man]

So arr&bee had the last word then.

[westgrandboulevard]

Or was it 'number'.....

[arr&bee]

VERY SLICK TRYIN TO GET ME TO SAY THE LAST WORD,HAAA LIKE I'M GONNA FALL FOR THAT ONE...NOT ME I'M TOO SLICK,[why do I feel like I've just written something...hmmmm???]

[westgrandboulevard]

Hum!!! Now, THAT'S a word.....

[arr&bee]

NO NO NO,NOT HUM IT'S HMMMMMMMMMMMM....[he got me again didn't he???]

[westgrandboulevard]

Mmmmmmmmm......;)

[moe]

SMH for sure!!!

[arr&bee]

[pssss over here,they think I'm gonna have the last word but they don't know I'm secretly typing this hehehehehe.]

[westgrandboulevard]

If the sound of your typing is kept down low, they'll never guess......

[moe]

How low can you go???

[westgrandboulevard]

Low enough to make sounds which cannot be heard by the human ear?

[stephanie]

Should I name a new puppy Westgrand? I thought only dogs had special hearing....no offense West....or should I call you Adam? .....Adam West get the joke....oh well

[westgrandboulevard]

LOLOL Stephanie

I was reading just the other day of a man who can sing notes so low that they can't be picked up by the human ear, only audio equipment. Can you imagine.....:confused:

I seem to think whales do that, too?

Going to the other end of the scale, dogs do have an exceptional hearing ability, but dog whistles are pitched 'high'.

When we're young, we mere mortals can hear higher sounds than our elders [[I could hear the very lowest notes of a bat which would circulate our family home at dusk - but more so in one ear - it came across as a 'tink', 'tink, tink' sensation), but, as we age, the ability to do so steadily decreases.

You can call me Adam any time you like, Stephanie. It's a nice name. Though I'd prefer Catman, to both Batman and Dogman :)

[arr&bee]

Goodnight mrs.calabash wherever you are.

[westgrandboulevard]

Ah, the glorious Jimmy Durante.

Just as long as Mrs Calabash knew where she was, and was happy , then everything was fine....

[arr&bee]

I've always assumed that the aformentioned[mrs.calabash]was his mother,does anyone know for sure?

[westgrandboulevard]

No, it was apparently the nickname he used for his first wife, Jeanne. He used the reference in the act after she died.

[moe]

Never knew that westgrand! What about Phyllis Diller & her husband "Fang?"

[westgrandboulevard]

I always felt Jimmy Durante to be a loving person, a side he firmly hid behind his comic persona. He didn't poke fun at people. That appearance of him and and Mrs Miller could have been a disaster, but for his formidable skills.

I wished too that I could have met Phyllis Diller, as I believe she was a really kindly lady. Behind her zany persona, a shrewd judge of character, but very thoughtful and perceptive.

I would guess 'Fang' was largely, if not completely fictional. That way, Phyllis could act out an alter ego and say just what she liked, but in a way where she wouldn't hurt anyone's feelings, or even be accused of doing so - ?

And I would also have loved to quietly sit and hear Phyllis play the piano with those symphony orchestras at which, apparently, she excelled. We have a symphony orchestra here in my home town [[I think the orchestra may have an international reputation, but is certainly well known by fans of classical music here in UK), and can just imagine how she and it would have sounded together.

Over here, had they been UK citizens, Jimmy, Phyllis and their like would surely have been awarded at least the Order of the British Empire, and be considered national treasures, simply for their oddball humanity. If you've never heard of Ken Dodd, check him out....

[arr&bee]

The order of the british empire,now that's cool...i want one.

[westgrandboulevard]

I have rung the palace, and suggested one for you.

HM has just rung back [[she was having her breakfast) and says it really isn't strict protocol to award you one.

I've told her all about you and your global campaign for the realisation of hooch,. HM was impressed, and she says maybe a Disorder of The British Empire could perhaps be considered?

She's going to walk the corgis, and mull it over. It might depend on what Philip thinks.....

[arr&bee]

Man that would be so cool,i would give it a place of dishonor right next to the dunce cap i wore all through school.

[westgrandboulevard]

If you were to be awarded an Order of the British Empire [[OBE), you would visit Buckingham Palace, and be presented with a medal by HM The Queen, or possibly the Prince of Wales.

If there were to be a Disorder of the British Empire, I imagine the same procedure would be applicable.

After that, you should forget all about that dunce's cap.

In fact, even before that, you really should forget all about that dunce's cap :)

[arr&bee]

I most certainly will not forget that i was the only kid in five districts to have one...oh by the way that prince of whales is it,moby dick or orca???

[westgrandboulevard]

Neither. It's pictures of Cardiff.

[144man]

He's the Royal with a sense of porpoise.

[westgrandboulevard]

And, reportedly, a penchant for talking to his plants.

[arr&bee]

Hey that[cardiff]guy isn't he some sort of magician in vagas??

[westgrandboulevard]

Has he made it disappear?

[arr&bee]

I don't think so at last i heard it was still in alaska.

[westgrandboulevard]

What's it doing there? On vacation?

You'll note I didn't say 'holiday', just to prove that the Brits [[including the English) are international...

[arr&bee]

Vegas,alaska..pop.50 some of my best customers live there and they never feel the cold thanks to this wonderful elixur.

[westgrandboulevard]

So that's where the saying 'bear with a sore head' began.....

[arr&bee]

What?,you thought that thier fur keeps them warm on those long alaskan nights??

[westgrandboulevard]

Of course it does - except, of course, when it's at the cleaners.....

[arr&bee]

OK WEST LET ME ENLIGHTEN YOU,NOW WAY BACK IN THE DAY WHEN MY GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GR EATGRANDADDY[HE WAS GREAT]WAS UP IN THE GREAT NORTH HE ACCIDENTALLY[or so they say,hehe]SPILLED SOMETHING IN THE WATER AND THE BROWN BEARS DRANK IT WELL IT BLEACHED THE FUR BUT WARMED EM UP,SO WHEN THOSE BEAR HIBERNATE THEY ARE JUST SLEEPING IT OFF[TAKES EM AWHILE].

[westgrandboulevard]

How are they placed in the warmer months?

[arr&bee]

WELL THE WARMER MONTHS ARE SPENT IN AA....[Jai he's talking about the bears not you]...OPPS.

[juicefree20]

arr&bee,

Your thread & Dyvanaye's "SDF Anonymous" threads was the true inspiration behind "Malletcatraz", a thread that was one of the funniest things that I've ever seen.

I believe that I saved your thread. As I recall it, the forum instituted the use of a password & you were kinda locked out. While we could all see what you were writing, it seemed as though you couldn't read any of it.

That gave me the idea to be tossed in a dungeon by Dyvanaye & her co-horts, where I'd have a one-way conversation with myself just as you had done.

Truthfully, it was just going to be a one-sided thing where I'd just write whatever I dreamed up. But once Wicked, Dollar Bill & the rest got involved, it just went in totally different directions, depending upon what someone came up with that day.

That made it much funnier than what I'd imagined because most times the funniest things come from people playing off of one another. Those threads will never be forgotten by me & fortunately, I saved most of what wasn't deleted.

Sadly, that thread never truly went where it could've gone & certainly was never wrapped up satisfactorily.

I sometimes dream of a day where it could be recaptured, but as with many things, the natural flow is the best & you just can't recreate something like that began from nowhere, then took on a life of its own.

But Lord...it was really something :)

[moe]

The one way conversations are CLASSIC SDF!!!!!!!!!!!!

[westgrandboulevard]

I'm finding that if I talk to myself, I get all the right answers.....:rolleyes:

[arr&bee]

But lord...it was really something :)thanks juice,that was a crazy time when i wasn't sure i could get back into sdf so i just started writing stuff and eventually ralph found me,as you can see between-west,moe,jerrry,144man and myself we try to keep some of the humor going and once and while we talk about music too.

[westgrandboulevard]

I still haven't quite figured out how this 'last word' thread worked.

Was it something similar to the Word Association thread?

[moe]

And no one else will figure it out westgrand...............yet!!;)

[westgrandboulevard]

I'm wondering here : are you talking totally illogical, moe?

[arr&bee]

Haaaaaaaaaaaaa,ok,ok let me break it down whoever gets the last word gets the last word,get it?

[144man]

Whenever I have an argument with my sister, she always gets the last word [[+ 95% of the others!).

[moe]

My sister? I just let her think so because most of the time it's just not worth it [[and she can be really dumb/stupid).

[westgrandboulevard]

They both sound like they can be the absolute terminus. The outside edge of enough.

Maybe they should form a double act. Go down great in Cinderella.....:rolleyes:

[144man]

Oh no they wouldn't!

[westgrandboulevard]

Oh yes, they would!!

They're behind yoooooou.....!!

[moe]

Lmao!!!!!!!!!

[westgrandboulevard]

'My Sister And I' get along fine, as long as there's a county between us.

She's become really bossy and strident over the years. Likes to control everything, and stores up things for future use.

I believe she was the very first known example of a resealable bag.

[arr&bee]

Hey you two,don't turn this into a[supremes]thread..hehehehehehe.

[westgrandboulevard]

Well, why not....all the others are!! LOL

[arr&bee]

HEY WEST THIS IS WHY WE STAY FAR AWAY FROM THERE[although I sneak over and peek in the windows,hehehe].

[westgrandboulevard]

On rare occasions, you'll find me in the middle of it...

[arr&bee]

Hey west you been waiting for the next[answer this]question??well it's over in the motown section,check it out and answer it if you can.

[westgrandboulevard]

I've seen it., arr&bee, and I'm talking to Voice about the answer.......

[arr&bee]

Haaaaaaaaaaa,good luck on trying to get anything from voice,he doesn't dig soul music,he likes opera and classical stuff and he wants me to only listen to that kind of music...ain't gonna happen.

[arr&bee]

Jai I too like Motown music,why the songs of Mr.Marvin Ruffin and his group The Vanfellas see I'm hip.....SEE WHAT I MEAN.

[westgrandboulevard]

Voice is trying to be cool, and well aware you wouldn't know your aria from your elbow.

[arr&bee]

I know that there are some arias that i wouldn't elbow my way into even with hooch,hehehehehehehehehe.

[westgrandboulevard]

I'm sure some of your notes would be quite good :)

[arr&bee]

West,i never keep notes it's all in my head.

[westgrandboulevard]

We can't hear them, if they just stay there.

[moe]

That's right! do, re , mi............

[westgrandboulevard]

Musical notes are like thoughts - best shared. And where best, than here.....

[moe]

Yes, we're ALL notable!!

[arr&bee]

Time for a poem...doe is a deer not,for it is in the making of bread is it not ummm yummeee...now that's classy!!

[westgrandboulevard]

I don't think you'll make much dough from publishing your poem, arr&bee.:)

Although, possibly, as part of an anthology called "Under The Influence Of Hooch", which might appeal to some readers. Everything has a market, somewhere.

[moe]

He'll find his niche, westgrand!!

[westgrandboulevard]

Unless the niche finds him first, moe....

[144man]

"La, a note to follow so" is such a weak line.

[westgrandboulevard]

Yes, I think so, too. Or should that be 'la'.....

[arr&bee]

So i'm not[willum wordsless lungfiller]but i'm on my way.

[westgrandboulevard]

You'll just have to live life one word at a time, and get a lot of rest.

[arr&bee]

Rest???no time for it got poetry to write.

[westgrandboulevard]

Oh dear. You mean, we have to sit through more of it....?

[arr&bee]

Brings a tear to your eyes don't it?

[westgrandboulevard]

I'd prefer onions.

[arr&bee]

I got a poem for that.

[westgrandboulevard]

I just got a whiff of it....

[144man]

I was told you don't cry if you peel onions under water, but I nearly drowned.

[westgrandboulevard]

Haha. You might have guessed when you saw the French onion seller using a snorkel.

[arr&bee]

Do you know that if you are in total darkness with your eyes closed you can't see a darned thing.

[westgrandboulevard]

I'm not sure I'd see anything in total darkness ,even with my eyes wide open:confused:

[arr&bee]

I saw something once,and i don't wanna see it again.

[westgrandboulevard]

You'll need to be on the lookout.

[144man]

It was just your imagination running away with you...

[westgrandboulevard]

As long as I'm being taken somewhere nice, I'll go along quietly....

[144man]

I predict a riot.

[westgrandboulevard]

Not to worry. Ralph will simply press 'delete', and then we'll all completely lose the thread.

[moe]

And our minds..............

[westgrandboulevard]

If you don't mind, then I don't, either.....

[arr&bee]

Um guys,i don't know if ralph actually knows we're here he's so busy with threads that actually make sense so let's be very quiet..shhhhhhhhh!!!

[westgrandboulevard]

Threads that make sense? I can only say that Ralph deleted a thread yesterday that was really starting to sound like a bar room brawl.... :)

[moe]

I'm glad I didn't know about it, westgrand!!

[westgrandboulevard]

You mean you didn't peek even just once at the "Supremes Petition thread", moe?

In fact, you hardly needed to peek. You could practically HEAR the raised voices.....LOL

[moe]

No, really. I am just too busy. I would rather be on hooch with all of you than mess with a Supremes thread!!!

[arr&bee]

Heck i had to duck just passing by that place,i went in with a white flag and they still threw a supremes argument at me they're angry over there.

[westgrandboulevard]

This could soon become the only forum where Supremes fans hold an annual carnival procession.

[144man]

There's more chance of peace in the Middle East than between Supremes fans.

[westgrandboulevard]

The music's better, though...! ;)

[144man]

Cinderella Rockerfella? Viva La Diva?

[westgrandboulevard]

You mean Abi and Esther? Katherine and Darcey?

[144man]

I thought you meant music's better in the Middle East.

[westgrandboulevard]

If you were born and lived in Bradford, Leicester and parts of London, you might well agree that their music is better- but I meant the music's better from The Supremes.

Mind you, on those arduous whistle stop tours endured in the 60s by some of the Motown artists around the UK's more seedy theatres and ballrooms, I'm certain they often found themselves facing Mecca......

[144man]

...which brings us back to Ian Levine.

[westgrandboulevard]

I recently bought his Northern Soul 2012 CD. Atfter 2 or 3 plays, at least some of the tracks have a way of going round inside my head. A very good, and annoyingly catchy, cover of Connie Stevens' 'Tick Tock' by The Fantations. Just the sort of thing the UK should go back to using as our entry for Eurovision. I'd perhaps describe it more as spirited pop music than 'soulful', but very pleasant company all the same.

[144man]

Just listened to it on Youtube where it's part of Ian Levine's Top 40 and had a quick dip into it. Laverta Lewis' "Better Times Ahead" is also quite good.

[westgrandboulevard]

Will listen for Laverta. Not on this particular disc. Try The Concentrations 'My Word Of Honour' , or The Four Vandals 'Brick by Brick, Stone by Stone' [[lead singer is Steve 'X Factor' Brookstein) - just good little pop records.....

[arr&bee]

What is connie stevens up to these days,she was sooooo cute on[hawiian eye].

[westgrandboulevard]

She wrote, produced and directed her film 'Saving Grace B. Jones' a few years ago,

Does a lot of good work for the Screen Actor's Guild, the Republican Party, and the United Services Organizations. And still seems to do it with glamour....;)

[moe]

What about her in "Palm Springs Weekend?"

[arr&bee]

One of my favs from back in the day.

[westgrandboulevard]

She beat off some UK cover versions and had a hit here with 'Sixteen Reasons', but is not well known here.

I'm unsure if Hawaiian Eye was shown here, although I remember 77 Sunset Strip.....

[moe]

Cookie, Cookie, give me your comb........

[westgrandboulevard]

I remember Billy Smart's big circus coming near us in the 60s, so the family went to see it on a day out. What an event for a young boy like me.

It had a number of elephants, accompanied by The Digger Pugh Elephant Girls - all dressed in gold spangled one piece outfits, gold shoes and blonde wigs.

When the elephants put their front feet up on stools in the ring, the girls danced, weaving their way in and out, and sometimes underneath the elephants, while the band furiously played the theme from "77 Sunset Strip"...:)

[moe]

What did those elephant girls look like?

[westgrandboulevard]

You mean "were they huge"?!

No, they were very glamorous - but I was at an impressionable age! All were obviously dancers - similar height, tall, slim, wearing identical uniformed outfits in gold [[I think they were all-in-ones, in something like lycra, but with mini skirts attached ) matching wigs pulled back with a long 'fall' and gold shiny 'high-kick' dancer shoes [[think 'The Rockettes').

Each girl rode in on an elephant's neck. Ten elephants, ten dancers. Funnily enough, I recently bought a book on eBay called 'Spinners of the Big Top', about Billy Smart's circus. When I spotted it, I had one of those "I wonder whatever happened to the copy I had of it when I was young?" moments, which made me buy it again.

After I posted earlier, I then went to the book to see if there was a photo of the elephant girls. There wasn't, but it did remind me that the elephants actually stood on very wide, circular [[and presumably incredibly strong!) plinths, and then raised their front legs onto the elephant next to them, forming a tableau - so the elephant girls could dance-march right under them, keeping exact time to the '77' theme tune which you'll know went at a fair pace. Whenever the girls actually passed under the elephants, I remember the way they stretched out their arms [[like "Stop! in the name of love") in complete synchronisation but then crossed their forearms from the elbow over their faces, palms outwards, as if walking 'blind' under the elephants [[The Marvelettes had a similar move, dipping their knees, but keeping their hands lower, at shoulder height)

I was completely entranced with the sights, sounds and absolute showmanship of it all.

[moe]

Funny how we remember things!!
Now I'm not sure if R&B can remember anything!!

[westgrandboulevard]

Yes, it is strange, isn't it?! Very often, it's random events. I have this photographic thing mentally, which is generally reliable, if not completely. Fortunately, my 'snapshots' are good, positive ones, which have inspired me towards something else - as in 'looking outwards'.

It's the 'snapshots' of bad memories which aren't so good. They start to affect some people, in ways they can't always control, by 'looking inwards' and then holding them there. It needs a little window opened somewhere, and a light breeze.....

I bet arr&bee has a good recall...when he remembers to use it...!

[arr&bee]

Snapshot???um i'm kind of camera shy,i've never seen myself even my shadow doesn't know what i look like.

[westgrandboulevard]

To get you used to the idea, try looking in the reflection of the nearest pool......

[moe]

Reflections of..........what used to be........:p

[144man]

... a distorted reality...

[westgrandboulevard]

"Welcome to Soulful Detroit Forum - a distorted reality"

[moe]

No other place like it..........enter Rod Serling!!

[westgrandboulevard]

Yes indeed. A maximum security, twilight zone, for terminally bewildered fans of Motown.

A place where we are invited 'to join in a discussion of Detroit Soul Music and History, past and present.'

And a place where the threads come and go so quickly.......:)

[arr&bee]

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,hey did you guys read where ralph shut dow that supremes petition and they're still arguing,haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[westgrandboulevard]

As well as our classic/blockbuster movie we're planning, we should mount a concert :

'Return To Hate : Supremes Is The Word'
'The Story of Soulful Detroit Supremes Threads'.

If we can stop that lot bickering, they might have enough breath left to cheer it to the rafters....

[moe]

Oh dear!!!

[westgrandboulevard]

It won't have a long run, just seem like it - then suddenly deleted.

The bandleader will be conducting the brawl in the audience, not what's happening on stage.:rolleyes:

[arr&bee]

They'll be arguing out in front on the red carpet about should diana let mary on the red carpet or come in through the employees entrance...we better hire some more munckins.

[westgrandboulevard]

Yellow carpet to the employees entrance, then....

[144man]

My money's on Diana to have the last word.

[westgrandboulevard]

Especially as she knows she can always rely on strong BackinG.

[144man]

Are we still here or have we been deleted yet?:)

[westgrandboulevard]

Not if I can help it. You can lose a helluva lot of posts off the total when that happens...:rolleyes:

[moe]

Clever westgrand!!!

[144man]

When the forum got updated, I lost 2000 points somewhere, which left me very disappointed.

[westgrandboulevard]

I remember you saying. You were devalued. You should sue for hurt feelings.

As soon as I have 2000 points to spare, I'll have them transferred to you.

[144man]

I asked Ralph to reinstate them , but he said Everything in moderation.

[westgrandboulevard]

Ralph is starting an Obituary Thread, for us to remember the recently deleted.

[arr&bee]

HAAAAAAAAAA,YOU GUYS ARE NUTS...WE'RE NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO BE DELETED...psssss actually i'm not sure we're even here.

[144man]

I'm 110% sure we aren't, but that's neither here nor there.

[arr&bee]

Besides we've been banned in all 48 states and alaska,and we're still here...[i think]

[westgrandboulevard]

The merry band of Hoochamites......

[arr&bee]

THAT'S RIGHT WEST,WE STUMBLE ON,ALWAYS MOVING FORWARD...[because there's nothing but empty jugs behind us]....AND IF THE HIGHWAY PATROL EVER FINDS OUT WHO LEFT ALL THOSE JUGS..ANYHOW ONWARD.

[westgrandboulevard]

We're the only people arrested for being sober without good reason.

[arr&bee]

I've never actually been sober west.

[westgrandboulevard]

Well, I've never actually been drunk, so I'll settle for the average state.....

[144man]

...and I'll settle for Hawaii [[more than just an average state).

[westgrandboulevard]

A higher state of mind always suits me better than Aloha.

[144man]

I've been outpunned. The indignity of it!:[[

[westgrandboulevard]

My movie script is becoming littered with puns. It's really just a play on words.

[144man]

And just when I thought there were no further depths to which we could sink...

[westgrandboulevard]

I'd never take a lift to the basement. That's just beneath me.

[144man]

I thought you were on the level.

[westgrandboulevard]

Arr&bee is on a spirit level.

[144man]

Yes, that is his inclination.

[westgrandboulevard]

He's inclined to be laid back.

[moe]

Passed out? CORRECT!!!

[westgrandboulevard]

With honours, if we're talking hooch academy.......

[moe]

Head of the class!!!;)

[arr&bee]

Moe has final say over all script matters,if that matters.

[westgrandboulevard]

First having a script, matters....although we seem to manage without one here, quite well...

[moe]

Improv......Improv!!!!

[westgrandboulevard]

Keeps us on our toes. Ballet, anyone?!

[144man]

A Marty Feldman comedy sketch ruined ballet for me.

[westgrandboulevard]

Would that be the one where he played a ballet dancer, accused of drunken and disgraceful behaviour?

[144man]

I think so.if it's the one where he stuffs a broom down his tights.

[westgrandboulevard]

As I believe the ballet in question was 'The Nutcracker', that figures.....

[arr&bee]

I need a fight scene...we'll just stick a[suprems post]in that spot they fight better than any extras we could get.

[westgrandboulevard]

We'll need subtitles on the screen, for when the audience becomes rowdy...

[arr&bee]

We're gonna shot this baby in[4d]the audience will be mesmerized.

[westgrandboulevard]

Just like they are in the Hollywood Wax Museum....

[arr&bee]

That's right we're gonna have em just where we want em.

[westgrandboulevard]

We don't want a disorderly crowd. I just hope they cheer.....

[arr&bee]

No i want rowdy,then the legend begins and the money rolls in.

[westgrandboulevard]

You mean like someone blowing up a bank vault?

[moe]

The people at the Hollywood Wax Museum have nothing to say!!

[westgrandboulevard]

No, but they listen real good.

[moe]

As long as the temperature remains cool..........

[westgrandboulevard]

Otherwise, meltdown....

[moe]

.....with no chance of survival!

[westgrandboulevard]

One day, you're Diana Ross from the 60s - the next, you're Oprah's right arm....

[arr&bee]

No meltdowns until this classic is in the can.

[moe]

Who got canned???

[westgrandboulevard]

Caned might be fun, but canned doesn't appeal. And looks like we're all still here.

Alternatively, we could be sat in the vaults for decades, just like at Hitsville. And it's dark in there...

[moe]

There were plenty of tunes in the vaults, westgrand but there would be only one movie.

[westgrandboulevard]

Then, if it's going to bomb, it had better explode sooner than later.

[moe]

Unless it's you, me, R&B, and 144man who is supposed to sit in that vault??:confused:

[westgrandboulevard]

The fans? Anyone who'd enjoy a production like this one maybe shouldn't be walking around....:rolleyes:

[144man]

No, but they listen real good.

A bit late, but how do they listen real good with all that wax in their ears?

[westgrandboulevard]

They concentrate real hard, because the wax is real hard.

[moe]

They need ear tubes!!

[westgrandboulevard]

Yes, they'd make good earring aids.

[arr&bee]

The reports are comin in,this is the worst disaster since the titanic sunk says the critics,i told you all we would be great..as long as they spell our names right....we're on our way to the[golden turkeys].

[westgrandboulevard]

As long as they correctly note my bank details, they can call me what they like ;)

[moe]

.........me too, westgrand!!;)

[westgrandboulevard]

I'd be grateful for anything. Especially as all the time, attention and love we show here, is for free:rolleyes:

[moe]

Wrong!! The attention and love is PRICELESS!!:D

[westgrandboulevard]

I can tell your fees just went up.....

[moe]

Considerably!!

[westgrandboulevard]

Look out, y'all.

This woman has attitude.....

[moe]

And she charges!!:D

[westgrandboulevard]

The more she can charge, the more interest she has....

[arr&bee]

Have you all been listenin,ain't no money yet,the tickets are still being counted by my accountant...[mr.slick]...don't worry he's certified[i think]or was he crucified??magnified??verified??vilefied??maybe i had better check up on mr slick.

[westgrandboulevard]

My accountant is Lucy Slack.

I can tell you, I often have to check up on her....

[moe]

Oh that's too bad westgrand!! Be back later

[westgrandboulevard]

Will be here:)

[moe]

Up in the hills..............big storms today, connection issues.
Should I get a new accountant, too? This sounds serious!!

[westgrandboulevard]

I've always found the task of changing accountants to be very taxing.

[144man]

I was only 143man until my accountant was incorporated.

[arr&bee]

Opps-er-ahem-hehe...you said incorporated, mr slick is incarcerated.

[westgrandboulevard]

At least you'll know where to find him.......

[moe]

A man behind a bar or two........

[westgrandboulevard]

Claiming all his civil rights, while studying for a degree or two...

[arr&bee]

I should've known something was amiss where he pulled up in that 1973 el dorado and the superfly outfit.

[westgrandboulevard]

Probably just came from someone's hen party, where he'd picked up a bit of money as their entertainment.

[moe]

Is the Eldorado a convertible?

[westgrandboulevard]

Eldorado was certainly a TV series which didn't convert into good viewing figures :)
