Question about something in the Nightcrawler mini-series!

Post by StarChild »

Okay, Dave! I have one for you, especially if I am going to twiddle my thumbs with a bamf tale and with good ol' Sehv the Oracle involved as well! Now, correct my memory if I am wrong, but wasn't there a Gainsborough dog food?? I am certain my brain is remembering that one correctly! Why did Sehv ever call him Gainsborough? Allusions to Kurt's proclivity for running with four on the floor, or what? Also, do you think the girl bamfs would mind a little cute competition for their short beaus' affection? I am having an idea! (uh-oh, better duck!!) :eek :pokejoke

I'm not sure I understood your last statement. As for the 'Gainsborough' crack--sorry, no dogfood. There's a famous painting called 'Blue Boy' painted by an old master named Gainsborough. It depicts a young man dressed entirely in blue. Gainsborough also painted a companion piece of a young girl dressed all in pink and displaying her little finger--that one's called 'Pinkie'.

I believe the dogfood was Gaines without the borough.

:doh! The painting! How could I forget that painting?? Now I know...thank you...And as for the memory, I confess to being in error. (that is what I get for trying to be cute and forget the clever! :blush) As for the last comment, I was wondering what the girl bamfs would do reaction wise to having competition for their affections, but I will imagine away! And the ducking...ah, I did have a short story in mind...short this time! I promise!

Gaines was the company name. Gainesburgers was one of their products.

Gainesborough sounds enough like Gainesburger, so I could see the confusion. Especially since I am a bit of a dog person. ;)

Not familiar with that one. More Freberg?

Do you know what mindless jerks were first against the wall when the revolution came?

Try beneath the dog-eared copy of "Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat"

By the way, I think I'd like to try a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster...always wanted my brains bashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped around a gold brick!... :urg

This is great! Little did I know that my signature would spark a tribute to Freberg. That album must have sold more then I thought or a some people have long memories.

I always thought that you and I were the only people in the world who had copies of that album, Jerry! I'm not familiar with some of StarChild's other Freberg references, though. I do remember a few odd bits like an Elvis impersonator singing 'Heartbreak Hotel' ('I can't stop muh laig.. .'), and a hilarious TV commercial for Chung King chicken chow mein which featured a guy in a dragon suit blundering through a supermarket, sending canned goods flying everywhere... :LOL

I'm gonna have to get out that album, dust off my record player, and find some new quotes. I just remember us with George trading verses. We were a weird group. :LOL

Yeaars ago I anticipated the loss of LP-playing equipment, and I copied the album off onto audiotape. It's one of the things I play frequently while working (or did, anyway).

A good call. Now the important thing is getting it onto CD, as cassettes lose their quality over time, and it gets harder to find good cassette players.
