I believe Mort Mills had a role on Big Valley if I'm not mistaken. . .
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:15pm fred:

@Greg: I hope you're not mad at me because I called your art "digital roaring twenties". I meant that in a good way, but didn't really think it over either
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:18pm Fuzzy:

Link Wray, now this -- yer killin' it man!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:18pm Greg from Bloomfield:

@fred: Heavens no! Much appreciated!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:21pm Fuzzy:

Not to be confused with Chicken Walk.
  1:21pm P-90:

Did someone mention hot dogs?
  1:25pm Rudy Poot on Tulane:

Fried Clam Po Boy with Remoulade

@Greg: That's a relief... Let's drink to that or something; let's drink anyway
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:30pm Greg from Bloomfield:

Oh God, after last nite I shouldn't legally be allowed near a bar for 6 months. That said, I'm attending a "Beer Olympics" out on LI tonite.
  1:34pm amira:

Tangi-Paho -- New York's Swingingest Go-Go Club! Opening Soon. Now seeking only the classiest lady dancers. Must provide own tassels.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:35pm fred:

@Greg: Rex' show is all about drinking responsibly, as in only drink to the level where you're still barely responsive, but no further
  1:36pm Lunk Head:

DYN-O-MITE! DYN-O-MITE!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:38pm drr:

Lstening to "Tangi-Paho" on YouTube, either it's a different version or one of y'all has the speed a bit off.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:39pm drr:

Whatever, killer song.
"The way the love, in Manchac,
Stop a hound dog in his tracks"!

I went to school at Alburnett, named after some guy called Al Burnett.

Mort Mills, we salute thee!

I dismember that t.v. show!

That Land of the Giants lunchbox now about $2700 in mint condition...
  1:45pm marc:

Shreveport, Louisiana was where Marnie's Witches worked their mischief on "True Blood"
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:46pm Frankipop:

I had a Fireball XL lunchbox when I was a kid, which I later found out was drawn by Wally Wood...
  1:47pm marc:

I had a Star Wars lunchbox
  1:48pm Chris Brown:

This Shreveport resident says thanks for the Louisiana songs! Sonny Starns' song where he names all the sights and towns in Tangipahoa Parish is always enjoyable.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:48pm fred:

@Greg: did you do a poster or flyer for those "Beer Olympics"? Sounds like that could be great
Avatar 1:49pm kyle a.:

Good morning, gang! Digging the show as always out here in Los Angeles, Rex! As my DJ for the year I definitely got the best of the best!
Avatar 1:51pm Melissa Jean:

I had a Strawberry Shortcake lunchbox but it got rusty cuz the thermos leaked a lot
Avatar ♥ 1:57pm pacific standard simon:

I had one of those totally uncool grey plastic Thermos lunchbpxes in college because they are perfect for carrying messy charcoal, smudge sticks, pencils, erasers, sharpeners, and chamois.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:59pm fred:

@Melissa Jean: The whole line was cursed for their lack of respect for rhubarb
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:00pm Greg from Bloomfield:

@fred: No, but I should have! It's not a sanctioned event really—just my friends' backyard.
Avatar 2:00pm Listener Jumpy:

When better drawings are drawn, they'll be drawn by Wood!
Avatar ♥ 2:02pm pacific standard simon:

Wood put some lead in his pencil.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:03pm fred:

@Greg: those are the best
Avatar ♥ 2:03pm purpleknif:

Holy fracking capitol! I live in Carroll County.
Avatar 2:04pm Melissa Jean:

@Fred haha but there was Rhubarb the monkey I think
Avatar ♥ 2:07pm pacific standard simon:

This song pretty much defines REX, I think.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:07pm fred:

@Melissa: was there? I'm not sure it counts, come to think of it it might make it worse. Rhubarb + Strawberry is awesome though
Avatar ♥ 2:08pm pacific standard simon:

"Millionaire Hobo" I mean. Just look at his apartment!
Avatar 2:12pm Melissa Jean:

@Fred monkey was paired with the raspberry gal instead of strawberry dunno wut they were thinkin! smelled good though.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:23pm fred:

@Melissa Jean: no wonder it got cursed
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:42pm fred:

@Melissa Jean: You said earlier you were sewing, what is it you're making?
Avatar 2:53pm Simon_1967:
