NFL Referees

The late, great Richard Jeni with a close look
at all those zebras we see running around
ruining a perfectly good football game by
being in the way.
You would think the local zoo would lock
their cages.
He gets inside their minds, no power tools
needed…



Sucks to Be You

Darryl Rhoades with a pretty succinct little ditty
that sums up the lives of far too many people.
I love to play this one on the show, usually through
a dedication of sorts.
“I’d like to dedicate this song to my Ex-Girlfriend”
Gotta love it…


Constitutional Peasants

A truly memorable scene from one of the funniest
flicks to ever grace the big screen.
It is as smart as it gets, wonderfully acted, and the
script is to die for!
Graham Chapman is the king, Terry Jones and
Michael Palin are the peasants.
The dialogue is like nothing else, immensely
quotable and as good as it gets…

Another Puff

An absolutely pristine version of this classic Jerry Reed piece.
More of a public service message than anything else.
Jerry made this to warn the populace of the dangers of
smoking, he had quit years before but the harm was already
done, he eventually passed away from smoking related issues.
No minor player he, one of a very small handful of people to
achieve the status of Certified Guitar Player by Chet Atkins,
he was a session guitar player with a huge following and was
considered to be one of the best pickers ever.
He was a decent actor as well, starring in a few hit flicks back
in the 1970’s, usually alongside his friend Burt Reynolds.
Some great lines here…
