#SellOutAShowOrMovie

Wonka. It's why Lofty had a thousandfold contract out on him.
Okay, so it's Lofty (Shortypants) that sold out.

"Oompa loompa doompety doo
I've got a tragic tale for you
Oompa loompa doompety dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me

Dear Loompaland is both luscious and green
But not conducive to growing the bean
My job was guarding what little we'd got
You came along and pinched the lot
Hey, why didn't you say something?
Well, perhaps I drifted off

Oompa Loompa doompety-day
When I awoke, they sent me away
I'm disgraced, cast out in the cold
Till I've paid my friends back a thousand fold
A thousand fold? You gotta be kidding me
I repeat, a thousand fold

Just the song I cited when Musk launched that Tesla into outer space.


Who let him get his nose under the office tent?

The Importance of Being Ernest --The stuff that Vern doesn't even know

This would be #NoEffort if not for the fact that the biography was written by Justin Lloyd; somewhere I heard that he's Varney's cousin or something like that.

This #Halloween I miss the old Dr. Fear show (The Mysterious Lab of Dr. Fear) on the local cable channel. Yes, I can find it on YouTube but y'all know I can't go there because my ad blockers "are a violation of our Terms of Service" and I won't drop my ad blockers.

Those of you who still visit YouTube, do yourself a favor and find the one episode of The Mysterious Lab where Trinka Drakul sings her own words to Fur Elise. I have that video saved somewhere here and I always gotta hear that this time of year.
#RIP Jaemi Young #TrinkaDrakul --Trinka the character's birthday is today.

When in an American city intending to dine at an authentic French restaurant, insist on being first introduced to the chef and his staff.

This tip is from Surly: when you find a nut stash, share it wisely and never with racoons. They're greedy.

Alt = lettering quotes some of the Billy Idol song but header reads ICE without a face...superimposed over an image of an ICE squad in menacing postures.


#EnidOK which is run by the Emmanuel Baptist Church MAGA nuts in and out of city government had a small #NoKings protest, but it was strategic. It was billed to take place at Champlin Park but I have a sneaking suspicion they didn't get a City permit for that, but no matter--they lined the edges of said park along where U.S. 412 and U.S. 81 intersect, also known as Van Buren and Owen K. Garriott. Some damn good signs and 2 painted umbrellas there, too. "Are we great yet? I just feel embarrassed!"

All of my fave GIFs are smaller and of a 1990s flavor, especially when a spam-hacking operation invaded my Win98 machine via which I got their info and invaded THEIR machine to swipe 'em.


#RIP Greely of #Kiss, and I'll bet #Monsterdon regulars aren't aware of the cheezy horror film Kiss made back in the day.

Speaking of which, I do believe that Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi" was also a Checker Cab.

I marked the first square on the Bingo card "Run Away!" because of the deer, and wondered why the hell the chicken marker. Then I got to the part of the movie as to why. Morgan's buddy was henpecked.

You come and go
You ricochet et et et...

(MAN I can't believe they're charging over $100 for the classic board these days!
AND you can also play checkers, backgammon, and if you've got 64 coins, you could do a heads/tails version of Othello/Reversi.)


Not a whole lot of youse guys ever played Parcheesi, huh.
Well, the one thing Wikipedia can't tell you is how much fun it is to play.
The bigger question I have is whether or not Cribbage can be considered a board game just because you need a board to play it.

Have you seen their pearls and lace
Up and down the whole Park Place,
On its famous thoroughfare
With their noses in the air?

High hats and Arrow collars,
White spats and lots of dollars,
Spending every dime,
For a wonderful time.

If you're blue and you don't know where to go to
Why don't you go where fashion sits, Puttin' on the Ritz.

Oh, when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof
And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire proof
In Hotel Boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be...

My knitting has been basic utility, so hands down the best knitting project I've finished was that Emotional Support Chicken!


The Puteketeke has been abandoned by #JohnOliver for a new obsession in the form of a German loaf of bread. This time Oliver's appeal falls on my deaf ears.
