I think some Brits were called limeys because they encountered Americans. I've never been called a limey until I came on to A2K, and the person that called me it thought he was insulting me. Although I can't see what's wrong with avoiding scurvey. Here's a oblique look at Alice in Wonderland.

@izzythepush,

pushman, Some Americans don't know their history.

Psychedelic Furs was great. For a moment, I thought you may have meant Alice's Restaurant. Razz

For some reason, your man reminded me of David Bowie. (love that performer)

Here's a tribute to him.

@Letty,

My late wife was a great fan of David Bowie and she thought exactly the same.

How about this?

Pushman, That is one parody that is briefly done but funny. Speaking of Tom, here's a story based on a true event.

@Letty,

John Otway and Wild Willie Barratt had some hits in the 70s. They're both still going although not together any more. John Otway is a brilliant bloke who used to sit in the bar at The Joiners before and after his performance chatting to all and sundry.

Izzy with a y, Love the word bloke 'cause it rhymes with artichoke.

Beware of the Flowers was a good one. Speaking of "Wild Willie" here's a great one by Another Willie.

At the other end of the scale it's Till Lindemann's birthday today from German rock band Rammstein. I first heard this in a market in Amsterdam.

Thanks, pushman for restoring our signal. Ah, too bad about that brother. Love Bye Bye Love by them

Talk about ethnicity, that Rammstein's Amerika was funny and global. I had no idea that Hugh Laurie was British, and here's a brief funny one by him.

good afternoon msletty , ed and all other listeners to WA2K Radio .

today is the birthday of that fine guitar picker " Slim" Gaillard :

Quote:

Bulee "Slim" Gaillard (January 4, 1916 – February 26, 1991), also known as "McVouty", was an American jazz singer, songwriter, pianist, and guitarist, noted for his vocalese singing and word play in a language he called "Vout". (In addition to speaking eight other languages, Gaillard wrote a dictionary for his own constructed language.)
