Strange Brew by John Deering for May 26, 2010

I thought they ate buttered scones! ;D

But those are not maple trees for the jack-juice!

And to think I wondered if there would be any Python allusions.

Guess who the Mounty at the lower right is, in this version. (Eric Idle’s left).

The buttered scones are for teatime, which is in the mid-afternoon. They’re eating breakfast. Lumberjacks eat about 10,000 calories a day.

Thanks Sheik, So that how they keep their figures.

Announcer: ” In today’s performance, the role of Joe Allen Doty will be played by Sheik Yerbouti…”

Meanwhile, back to all things Python,

” Ah don’t loik SPAM!! ”

Flapjacks, lumberjacks, it’s so hard to tell them apart.

I knew you were a lumberjack, And not just a common bum; ‘Cause no one but a logger, Stirs his coffee with his thumb.

They also never shave. They pound the whiskers through with a hammer and bite them off inside. It’s true, you can look it up. Just like the lemmings.

For all you space fans: The Shuttle just came in. I heard the two sonic booms and thought they were explosions, they were so loud. It always catches me off guard. This may be Atlantis’s last landing.

They’re Flipjims, flapjacks are so yesterday.

Flapjacks, lumberjacks off to see the woods.

Ken Keasy sent some kool-aid over. Sometimes a great notion gets in his head.

Ray C: thank you for the Atlantis news. I would love to see a shuttle launch, but would love even more to watch, first-hand, one landing.

Hey thebird55,

Was that Mounty Michael Caine? Or am I seeing things?

Right, bottom row, is Tom Hanks.

Check out the related video, ‘Sit on My Face’.

Coincidence - last night I watched that ’50s Disney “Paul Bunyan” cartoon (ask your grandparents, kids). Written and animated in a different time - cutting down all the trees and clearing the land for homes was a GOOD thing 60 years ago, when it was made…

Saskfan, I hope you get your wish. It’s awesome at both ends. But you’d better hurry!! An era is about to end unless we can rescue it.

Radish, thank you for finishing up the lyrics to “Logger Lover.” It’s been a long time since I’ve heard them, and I don’t know why I still remember that one stanza.
