Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from February 8, 2019 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

I can't tell you how grateful I am that Ted Lewis isn't saying "for you and I" -- about the only thing that's gotten more out of control is the misuse of "disinterested", on which the battle is lost as hopelessly as the ones for "hopefully" and "more importantly".

What's wrong with "notwithstanding"? Too long? "Despite" or "in spite of" will often do as a substitute, but not always.

Not only do I remember "Forearm Shiver" from NFL Films, but also from when Mrs. Simpson of the cartoons was selling pretzels with strongarm tactics being used on her behalf by gangsters.

I never knew the title, though. I suspect the makers of Simpson cartoons looked up titles related to "strongarm tactics" and came up with "Forearm Shiver". Very effective.
