Saturday Night Hootenanny

I am not the Walrus. Koo-koo-ka-choo. But I am gonna host tonight’s show, because of reasons, I suppose.

Anyway, since it’s a Saturday night, and since I’m old, I’m going old school country, Grand Ole Opry style.

We ain’t got a real long show tonight, but it’s jam packed with good music. Now let’s get this young fella from Alabama up to the microphone to kick off the show.

Now here’s a fine song from The Cherokee Cowboy, Ray Price. Take it away, Ray.

[YouTube]

Here’s a number that causes more aches than just to the heart. The Ol’ Pea Picker himself, Tennessee Ernie Ford.

[YouTube]

All the way from McClellan, Florida to our stage, let’s bring up Hank Locklin singing one of his biggest hits.

[YouTube]

Seems ole Hank ain’t the only one falling. Pretty Miss Patsy Cline is Falling to Pieces. Sing it, little lady.

This next fellow grew up in Oklahoma and got his start in music when Sheb Wooley taught him how to play the guitar. After playing with bands while in the Army, he went to Nashville and became a hit songwriter. One of his biggest hits was one he sang himself. Here’s Roger Miller, the King of the Road.

[YouTube]

Next up on the stage is one of our all-time favorites, Gentleman Jim Reeves, with one of his biggest hit records.

[YouTube]

Our next guest was a pretty good race car driver when he could squeeze time on the track in between having hit records. Here’s Marty Robbins, singing of of his biggest hits.

[YouTube]

We’ve had some big stars on tonight. And you don’t get to be any bigger a star than George Jones. Here he is now.

[YouTube]

We didn’t have a long show tonight, but it’s been a good one. Now, we’re gonna end with our hope that come tomorrow, you, too, might be able to do what our final guest implores you to do: Kiss An Angel Good Morning. Here’s Charlie Pride.

[YouTube]

Thanks for joining us tonight. That’s our Saturday Night Hootenanny. Unless, of course, you got an encore or two you want to offer.

Good night, everybody.

Wait… I’m Sorry: What?

Why Do Men Like Curves on Women?

(Since yesterday’s breast question went over gangbusters)

Speaking particularly about the curve in their waist:

1. It’s cool. Men don’t have it.

If men have any transition in their waist, it’s usually for the worse: a beer belly. Flab. Which is unattractive, and something for the eye to avoid.

But on women, a waist curve is as sleek as a line on a Ferrari. So, artistic.

And functional: it’s a transition between wider breasts and hips, two of our favorite places.

2. As a pivot point, it moves when she moves.

We keep an eye on that, being natural-born engineers, to see if everything is working properly.

3. Because, curves.

Can’t really explain it. It’s like asking why roses are pretty.

Me So Spammy!

Yeah, it may be racist to read Spam with a Chinese accent, but what other choice do you have when it arrives thus:

After study many of the web sites for your website now, we genuinely much like your way of blogging. I bookmarked it to my bookmark website list and will also be checking back soon.

?

Mm-hmm. You don’t say.

I’d like to thank you for the efforts you have put in penning this blog. I’m hoping to see the same high-grade content from you later on as well.

Keep dreaming.

I think that you could be bang on about this.

Something every Moon Nuker has imagined, in one way or another.

I read through this and found it useful.

Something no Moon Nuker has ever said. Ever.

I love how you break things down. How relatable!

Another thing no Moon Nuker has ever said. Ever.

Nice try, China.

Wilbur the French Bulldog wins race for mayor of Kentucky community
KSBW | Nov 5, 2020


The results are in and the community of Rabbit Hash, Kentucky, has a new mayor — a French bulldog named Wilbur.

Wilbur Beast won the mayoral election with 13,143 votes, the highest winning total ever. He unseated the incumbent Mayor Brynneth Pawltro, a rescued pit bull who assumed office in 2017.

The race had the biggest turnout ever with a total of 22,985 votes reported.

Jack Rabbit, the beagle, and Poppy, the golden retriever, came in second and third, making them both Rabbit Hash Ambassadors along with Ambassador Lady Stone, who will keep her position, officials with the Rabbit Hash Historical Society announced.

For those unfamiliar, the Boone County river community has elected a dog mayor since the late 1990s. Every four years in Rabbit Hash, residents can “vote” for their favorite canine candidate by donating to the Rabbit Hash Historical Society.

Wilbur hopes to continue to raise money through donations to the Rabbit Hash Historical Society and many other causes, including mental health and breast cancer.

Interesting Questions From Interesting Viewers

What are the laws on republishing newspaper articles in a book? Are there copyright issues?

Compare your sixth word with your second-to-last word.

Is there free software or online database to keep track of scheduled blog posts? I would also like it to keep a record of past and future posts. I am trying to avoid creating a spreadsheet in Excel…

God knows, Excels’s a challenge.

Anyway, are you talking about our posts, or yours? You wouldn’t want ours. Unless you’re the clumsiest NSA agent ever.

Is it possible for a 16 year old to make money out of blogging?. . I have no idea what a blog is or how they work.. . I know that it can make money though. . Thanks!.

AOC — Man, Does This Guy Nail Her!

Heh. Bad pun. Sorry.

NY, vote this woman out.

AOC is decently pretty and has a great rack, but her mind is rotted by today’s educational system, and her beliefs are corrupted by the Far Left. It’s a shame, because in time her looks will fade, and her rack will drop, but her political orientation will only get more extreme. And eventually she’ll be like Pelosi and Mad Maxine, a laughingstock and a travesty.

Hmmmm. Another person in the same thread commented:

I think right now, AOC is the most powerful Democrat woman in the U.S.

[C}alling her stupid [is] missing the point. YOU might think she’s vapid — who should be bartending, but to the millions of brain-dead Americans who still voted for Biden and the Dems, she is singing their tune. AOC excels at social media and retail politics and she’s relatively attractive despite pics that say otherwise or put her in a bad light. Do not dismiss her.

Just warning ya.

Spam: The Chinese Are Getting Clever

I’m actually beginning to like reading spam:

I like this! good to read, but I don’t know where to start. Which of your articles can you recommend I read next?

You don’t really grasp how IMAO works.

What if i created a blog with the same name as other blog accidentally? is that legal?

. . . Ya think? China!

You make more points than other people…

That’s Walrus’s forte.

I know some other reasons that negate this. Can I?

You just answered your own question.

Don’t let US stop you…

Don’t worry: ain’t gonna happen.

Straight Line of the Day: OK, I see that some Nukers were alive in the 70’s. Car memories include…

I’ll begin: the green Monte Carlo I had, at 18 (because back then kids could afford beater cars), and the super-8 film I took of it (because video cameras were far out of my price range!)

Also had a ’68 blue Mustang hardtop with a 390 engine. Had to get rid of it when my Dad objected to it sitting in the driveway forever, waiting for funds for shocks repair. Wonder what it would be worth today! Second owner.

Michigan AG Asks Residents To Stop Telling Staff To Shove Sharpies Up Their Butts
New York Post | November 5, 2020 | Ben Feuerherd

The Michigan attorney general pleaded with residents of the state on Thursday to stop telling her staff to shove Sharpies up their butts.

Attorney General Dana Nessel made the plea in a tweet Thursday after a state judge tossed a lawsuit by the Trump campaign that sought to suspend ballot counting in the state.

“Dear members of the public: Please stop making harassing & threatening calls to my staff,” Nessel wrote.

“They are kind, hardworking public servants just doing their job. Asking them to shove sharpies in uncomfortable places is never appropriate & is a sad commentary on the state of our nation,” she added.
