Lizardner Dave:
Lee Morgan plays and the flourescent lights in my windowless office don't change a bit, but my mood improves slightly. | |

@pape: "Pape"? As in street? Are you familiar with Crazy Hy's, 4650 Landsdown? | |

Irwin, it was that bastard Burl Ives. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:40pm
Jeff from St.Paul:
Burl Ives is a son of a bitch! | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:40pm
BSI:
I've got terrible burl ives, and no ointment! | |

You should hear the original version of "Itsy Bitsy Spider". | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:41pm
hard bop:
Osama Burl Ives | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:41pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:
I will not have Burl bashed in my presence. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:41pm
jennique:
Burl Ives shot baby squirrels. Curse you BURL! | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:42pm
PMD:
Burl WAS the snowman in whatever christmas special it was. So you CAN blame him. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:42pm
Mark:
Someone listening should immediately obtain the blameburlives.com domain. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:43pm
AnAnonymousParty:
There IS NO ointment, unguent nor tincture for Burl Ives, and that's the real problem. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:43pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:
Burl as the snowman was a neutral commentator. He didn't never hurt nobody, not Rudolf, not that monster with the toothache, not the unwanted toys. | |

a guy in a chair in a cube in the snow:
The wiki for that song is pretty good. Oddly enough McClintock himself actually sanitized it to the version you just played. It described the abduction of a child originally. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Rock_Candy_Mountain | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:45pm
Lizardner Dave:
Thanks for the Wilco. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:45pm
Pape:
Carmichael......I know Crazy Hy's well, and also Crazy Legs | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:45pm
Wilco:
Roger, that. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:46pm
gumby:
And here I am thinking it should be blamed on The Bossa Nova. At least that's what I'm told. | |

George Bush:
FInally! | |

Ike:
I love how, every time it gets cold, 'pubs scream "no global warming!" Hee! 1-2 degrees difference ain't gonna make it warm in winter, doofuses! Ah, I love "Wilco (The Song)" and "Big Rock Candy Mountain." | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:48pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:
the real GWB would have said "Fahn-lee" | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:48pm
Carmichael:
Right on, Pape! | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:48pm
PMD:
Irwin, you really should play Godfrey from that CD. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 3:48pm

From now on, whenever Irwin plays Miley, we should all shout "Look out! She's gonna sing!" | |

@Ike, 3:47: Science tells us lies. Science tempts us to doubt God's wisdom and power. Science is the Devil's slide-ruler. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 4:07pm
Ike:
Parq, hee hee! :) But with Irwin, I suspect it's prob. more like: Science is bad for business. Science tempts us to doubt the Free Hand of the Market. All businessmen are good and want to help us. Bow down and worship the Free Hand of the Market. Science is Communism's slide ruler. Love the show! | |

Wed. 12/9/09 4:12pm

I saw Burl Ives, drunk, and in his underwear, being dragged, dazed and shirtless, out from under someone's porch on an episode of Cops once, I think. | |

twodaysago:
Speaking of Burl Ives drunk, when I was a little kid, I thought they bombed Burl Ives on Dec. 7, 1941, then I learned it was Pearl Harbor | |
Wed. 12/9/09 4:35pm
Ex Mrs. Burl Ives:
I saw Burl Ives, drunk and in his underwear, singing "Jimmy Crack Corn" at the top of his voice in the alley behind our house at 3:00 AM once, and it was the last time, at least for me. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 4:36pm
Irwin:
That wasn't Burl Ives -- it was Bruce Haack. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 4:40pm
Lizardner Dave:
What's all this about Fred Astaire then? | |
Wed. 12/9/09 4:42pm

Burl Ives' Underwear = pretty awesome band name | |
Wed. 12/9/09 4:43pm

Wed. 12/9/09 5:58pm
Ike:
Что случилось с кириллицей? Кириллица хорошо. И я люблю Ирвина. Машинного перевода, Google является хорошим. | |
Wed. 12/9/09 5:59pm
josh:
jeez, man, where'd you get that keyboard? | |
Wed. 12/9/09 6:00pm
Ike:
No fancy keyboard; I cheated and copied-and-pasted from Google Translate. | |
