Trifioso

hey there grant! did you happen to see the live nativity on town center a couple of weeks ago?

7:53 am

grant

Some how missed that.

7:54 am

Trifioso

it was the day it was all of 3 degrees out. they really blew it out - donkeys, sheep, the whole nine yards. my ever so dry witted son was visiting, and, as we drove by, he says "Impressive, but sucks to be the baby though." which makes me laugh, even now....

7:57 am

grant

He has inherited his sense of humor, it sounds.

7:58 am

Trifioso

do you celebrate Christmas? If so, a very merry one is wished to you and your family

8:01 am

Because it's British. Pudding in the UK can be any number of things - bread pudding (sort of cake-like), Christmas pudding (also vaguely cake like) - it's very rich - like a fruit cake but with more suet

9:33 am

brandyjack

Brits call anything for afters a pudding... Doesn't have to be custardy at all.

9:33 am

mattygroves

9:33 am

zoozzoom

Yorkshire pudding was invented to use up the fat dripping from the meats (normally lamb) in the oven.

The odd bird is a Cassowary. Colorful and odd.

Ha ha! Just watched "Kiwll Da Wabbit". Good one.

Wasn't that recorded by some comedian?

4:32 pm

doseffing

Goes back to the forties or early fifties .. somebody did it to an opera ... I think it was Spike Jones but don't quote me

4:35 pm

MollyL

Um, the Kill The Rabbit Ozzie Fudd thing is a satire of an Metallica song.

4:36 pm

Judi

Nah. Has to be later than that. They refer to Roger Rabbit and the Playboy bunny rabbit.

4:38 pm

MollyL

Okay, sure. It is from the 40's. I'm sure Ozzie Ozbourne was around then, playing big band tunes.

4:39 pm

He's old enough. ;)

Those are all fine musical adaptions of Elmer Fudd, but they have nothing to do with Ozzie Fudd and Kill The Rabbit. That is all about Metallica.
