I remember watching "Turn On" back in 1969. What I don't remember is any specific joke, scene, or graphics, and now I see why. Incoherence is inherently hard to remember. No structure. Also, the jokes aren't funny.
It's weird, but I can't actually swear that this video is the show I watched. I guess it is...
Whenever I get ready to sacrifice cheese an angel appears with a sword and bids me to hold off on the cheese sacrifice. The angel then points to some bushes in the neighbors yard and hands me the sword. The angel says I can use the sword to clear some of the bushes away to find a substitute for the cheese sacrifice and I should do that right away before it gets too hot outdoors for yard work. I always start trimming those bushes but I never find anything. So I go back to my kitchen, parched and exhausted, to find my neighbor sitting at my table finishing off the last of my beer! I start to get frisky with the sword and my neighbor points out that I have already sacrificed a six pack of beer; it might be overkill to sacrifice a neighbor too!
One of my favorite memories of my dad is going to whole foods with him...his first time there. we walked around for awhile until we rounded a corner and saw the cheese section...
POP: [mouth agape] What a friend we have in cheeses!
I had a clear out of old board games and odds and ends earlier. In amongst the Buckaroo, Mousetrap, etc was an old My Little Pony card game, of course I immediately thought of Dok.
It depends. If you have a really great deal, it's almost impossible to renew. I had one - $100/year, IIRC - that had to be done on the exact renewal date - before that was "not up for renewal" and after was "expired".
Yes, that worst was Bally. Like they say, the only way to get out of your monthly payments is to die - and even then it can't be done. Maybe they have gotten better.
What is this bullshit?! Trump barely acknowledges any of his own children except for Ivanka, for obvious reasons. I'd bet he can't even name all of his grandchildren. But sure, notable anti-family man Joe Biden is a problem. They criticize Biden for loving and supporting Hunter when he's struggled and they criticize Biden when they think he's blowing him off.
Praise Cheeses! :)
Whar be Caturday? Last week ziggywiggy had it in their notes section - I thought that worked great...
The Mary Quant/ATT commercial [at 17:03] was amazing and gives the entire show a reason to exist.
Us, at a restaurant in Croatia this week: “What kind of cheeses do you have?”
Waiter, a Serb working in Croatia and speaking English: “Well we’ve got Cheesus Christ…”
When you can make puns in your third language, you shouldn’t be a waiter.
I wonder if he's a Bemelmans fan.
Just on holiday…but we met so many super smart people who spoke like 3 or 4 or more languages. Americans are truly morons in that respect.
The only thing that made any sense was the mescaline.
Hickory dickory dock
The mouse ran up the clock
The clock struck one.....
and the rest got away with minor injuries.

And now my head feels strange. Thanks.

I've always wanted to start a business if I lived in Nazareth - 'Cheeses of Nazareth'.
I want to go to there

Update for tonight's Movie Night! We are watching "Dick" (1999), two teenage girls accidentally stumble onto Watergate. It's a really fun movie and fitting for the current indictment-palooza, recommended by Rebecca. Available for $3.99 on Prime and Apple TV. https://ziggywiggy.substack.com/p/wonkette-movie-night-indictment-special?utm_source=profile&utm_medium=reader2
Damnit gotta work!

Have you ever tried to get out of a gym membership? It is tough. Remember to use the "I'm a nazi" trick if all else fails.
I cancelled Planet Fitness back during covid, but I do remember there was a hoop or two to jump thru along the way

Wow- That 'Turn On' show sucked, but was subversive- "The capitol of South Vietnam is in these Swiss Bank Accounts????" SHeeit!
The video is pretty clear foreshadowing of the "Laugh-In" to come.
I LOVED Laugh-in.
"Laugh-In" came first.
Wow, that show. It, sure was a show...
