Camping

Jim Gaffigan with a pretty humorous look at crapping outdoors.
His words, not mine.
I must admit, I’m feeling a lot more “indoorsy” than I did when I
was younger, camping was what I lived for.
The woods, song birds, majestic mountains, hiking, foraging for
edibles, climbing trees, and being one with nature turned me on.
Now when I think of camping…black flies if it’s rainy, horse flies
when it’s sunny, ants in my potato @#$%^&* salad!, what the
@#$% is scratching on the outside of the tent?, what the @#$%
is scratching on the inside of the tent?!, I need to go…where’s
the @#$%^&* flashlight?!, etc;
It’s quite possible I’ve gotten soft as a grape.
Some great lines here…


Camp Granada

I have to play this at least once before Summer is over.
A true classic in every way, this was a pretty huge hit
back in the 1960’s when it first came out.
Allan Sherman was considered to be one of the best
comedians in America at one time, releasing multiple
comedy recordings and writing a book while at his peak.
He shuffled off this mortal coil far too soon, as it is in
life we often lose the good ones early.
A simple tune but fun and uplifting…

Brain Death

After searching high and higher still I stumbled upon a
classic Not the Nine O’Clock News sketch in great shape.
Monty Python will always take the top spot in a Best Of
British Comedy listing but these folks deserve to be
considered as well.
This skit includes Mel Smith and Griff Rhys Jones as two
company managers with Rowan Atkinson as the union
leader representing an employee that was let go.
The only member missing from this four person comedy
troupe in this was the wonderful Pamela Stephenson.
A well done piece, everything about it is great, I love
playing this on the show, it loses nothing with the lack
of visuals…
