A superb satire from the late, great Shel Silverstein.
There is a lot going on here.
But it’s really very simple.
“All war represents a failure of diplomacy”…Tony Benn

Matt Iseman with a humorous set on his tour of
the troops in Afghanistan.
I play this one on the show, fits right in.
Ice dragons can be your friend…

This is a real treat!
I recently posted a superb Peter Sellers piece from the early
60’s masterpiece “Doctor Strangelove” and I thought I’d give
the late, great Mr. Sellers another go at showing the world
what a talent he was.
I could go on for days on how much of an influence Jim
Henson and his Muppets has had on American culture
over the years, the television show was exceptional for
many reasons, not the least of which is the way that they
would have a very respected artist as a guest host.
This slice is from a 1977 Muppet’s Show starring Peter
Sellers as a country type of fellow, singing a song of vice.
Singing a song lamenting vice to be more specific.
He was a superb actor, a talented singer, drummer of
fine repute, and a hell of a comedian.
This is wonderful on many levels…

This wonderful scene is from the 1986 Rodney Dangerfield
flick “Back to School”.
It starred Rodney as a student and the late great stand-up
comedian Sam Kinison as his crazed history teacher.
Sam was quite a phenomenon, known for his bombastic
in your face style of comedy he shuffled off this mortal
coil far too soon.
A couple of choice naughty words that would draw a stern
rebuke from puritans, Pope Steven VI, that crazed penguin in
the Blues Brother’s movie, and your mom.
Considering they’re all dead but your mom, and she ain’t
looking too good, I’d give it a try.
A classic scene by any other name…
