The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for February 18, 2018

…singing Handel’s lesser-known Not-Too-Bad Chorus.

Shouldn’t that be the Okay Corral Chorale?

they don’t sound as good as the horse chorus.

Not another horse opera…?

Take me to the Two-Thumbs-Up.

And on that note……

And all the cows go meh.

sioux-sioux

Please be kind. They don’t handel criticism well.

Earp.

When do they play? Wyatt noon!

They stay booked.

I’m proud to be an Okay from Muskokay …

I see they have those new Lay-Z-Boy saddles.

At least nobody’s shooting up the place

They’re getting ready for the Holliday, Doc.

Trivia – Doc was born 100 years before I was, and the gunfight at the corral was on my birthday.

There actually is, or was, an a capella singing group called “The Okay Chorale.” They used to do the theme music for a BBC cooking show years ago. They were very good.

An “okay” tune: “She got the goldmine, I got the shaft, they split it right down the middle and gave her the better half.”

Are they performing Oedipus Tex?

“Howdy there! I’m Oedipus Tex!

You may have heard about my brother Rex.

I’m Oedipus, that’s what I said,

But my friends just call me Ed!"
