Truly terrible

This, my friends, is truly terrible.


Where's the real Jan?
Perhaps Rerun ate her prior to busting out his stellar dance moves. There's lot's of energy in protein.
Didn't keep fake Jan from singing lead on the opening number. I think they were in cahoots.

If that opening performance of Turn the Beat Around doesn't cause a brain seizure or epiliepsy or an anaphylactic shock, then surely Disco Duck will. The only thing that performance did was lay the groundwork for the Rip Taylor and Alice the maid's version of...well, I don't really know what that song was that they were "doing". (Note the quotes..picture finger quotes). Anyway Disco Duck made that number seem to suck a little less than it should have.



So that's good.

How about this?

This is what turned Richard Dawson into an alcoholic. Well, this and all that "tunneling" he did with Sgt. Schulz to get to Colonel Klink's and Major Hochstetter's secret love compound. Again, the "quotes".

  

My family could have scored more points than this one did if they had asked the questions in Swahili. To my ten year old. In sign language. I don't know, what's the worse answer to "Name an animal with three letters in it's name?" Frog or alligator?

It's a toss up.

How's this?


Worst Music video. Ever.
Perhaps with the worst opening line in a song. Ever.
"Hey baby. Wake up from your asleep".
...and that's the best line in the song. For reals.

Swear to God.

Although, I did see these guys back up Kajagoogoo underneath the pier at Old Orchard. At high tide.


That's Kajagoogoo and they're too shy shy. Hush hush. Eye to eye.

...and that's awful.

How about this?


What made it worse was when Billy...or Bobby...or whatever his name was, bypassed the little bucket and sucked directly on the cow's teets. That, unfortunately, didn't make the final cut.
Now that's milking a cow.

Dad would only play if the kids would let him put his gin and tonics in Milky, the Marvelous Milking Cow.

Mom preferred wine coolers. The kids always wondered why Mom kept Milky in the fridge and only took her out to watch General Hospital.

That's a happy family.

This is the Terrible Trivium


He was a character in my favorite book as a child. The Phantom Tollbooth.
I think I've mentioned that before.
As a matter of fact I know I have...here it is...the mention...

My daughter performed this play at Summer Camp last year. I don't remember this character being in the play.

Isn't that terrible?

Enough of this...let's end on a positive note.

I have 94 posts in the books and, as of this writing, 9,428 hits ....I'm committed to hitting 10,000 by the time I put up my 100th post. So counting this post that's 572 hits over my next five posts.

I'm not so sure.

Spread the word.

Keep me writing this drivel.
...that's not such a terrible request, is it?

(although I'm not sure that was really a positive note, was it?...more of a plaintive note methinks)

much love

  1. I just can't get past the fact that Mr. Brady turned out to be gay, and that Greg was porking Mrs. Brady. Really, you can't make this shit up.
