Anyone remember Weird Al Yankovitch remaking the "Money for Nothing" video by Dire Straights as this song? Classic! - Bucko - 07-08-2003 Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea. Well the first thing you know ol' Jed's a millionaire.... - Georgie - 07-08-2003 Kinfolk said, "Jed move away from there!" - randery - 07-08-2003 they said: "Californy is the place you ought to be" so they loaded up their truck and they moved to beverleeee... - Innkeeper - 07-08-2003 Hills, that is. - winoweenie - 07-08-2003 Remeber that sucker dancin' with a cute lil' tousseled blonde named Shirley.

I would have put in a line myself but you all beat me to it! WD [This message has been edited by winedope1 (edited 07-08-2003).] - Georgie - 07-08-2003 Well, Bucko, show-off that he is, hogged the whole last verse.... - Bucko - 07-08-2003 Sooey! Piggy, piggy, piggy...... My granddad on my mom's side was a pig farmer in Okrahoma. Killed by a tornado when I was five, but I still remember him calling those hogs and slopping them down. Kinda like WW at dinner. - hotwine - 07-08-2003 Have to admit I never watched that show.... too close to home. I was born in Tennessee and raised in Texas (got here as fast as I could), and jokes about "hillbillies" (or Lollywood's version thereof) always struck me as extraordinarily condescending. Buddy seemed like a good guy, though. - Georgie - 07-08-2003 Hmmm...sure your name ain't Davy Crockett there, Hotsie? Seems to run in my mind that he was born on a mountaintop in Tennessee and ended up at the Alamo....something mighty coincidental about you two... - Jackie - 07-08-2003 Fess Parker, my girlhood hero. Ended up running a darn good winery. Was it... Born on a mountaintop in Tennessee, Greenest state in the land of the free. |
