Delmonico's Un-Sense-a-tiv-itty trainin' class

[litl rooster]

Del...that's what happens when you have hair...bald guys don't have that problem...if you don't have hair it won't fall out.    you need to go back to the lab and study some more.

[Delmonico]

Ain't worried, if it falls out I won't get upset, won't make up lies about why it fell out either.

[Trinity]

ya know another spot that's beginning to be troublesome,  eyebrows, not all of em, just a few that go crazy.

I get those really crazy ones every now and then.  It just appears one day.  Super long and pointing straight up.  Kind of like some of the greys that are appearing on the top of my head (my temples started turning ten years ago).  Sometimes, they are very curly and even once, I had one that bent at a 90° angle.

Just long as I don't get one like this

I've been plucking my mono since high school.  I don't think I would look as bad as that kid, but I would have a healthy collection above the nose.

makes me think of what ma Granddaddy told me when I was 4 or 5,  I went with him to get a haircut and I asked him how come he didn't have any hair,  he told me when they got to him, all they had left was Red hair, he told em he just as soon not have any as have Red,  
I didn't even like red headed kids growing up, 

matter of fact first red headed person I really liked was a girl in 11th grade,  made me forget all abut that red head dislike,  I wouldn't a cared what color her hair was.

Yes, I have a similar memory. 

My favorite movie line of all time is James bond to red-headed Tiffany Case:  "Well, as long as the collar and cuffs match... "

Sara Dervin, ninth grade. 
     Whoo weee.  Thought I might have a shot with her, but it turned out she was some kind of international teen model.  Way outta my league, but man that was the reddest hair and fairest skin I ever seen.

Whoa, I was driftin there fer a minute

I always tell people that she felt sorry for me.

[Leo Tanner]

Then why in God's name do ya call her that.  All this time we been gettin the wrong impression

     Lil definately felt sorry fer me.  I was between jobs when we met, an she didn't care.  Guys was standin in line ta date her an fer some odd reason she picked me.  Some of them guys still hold a grudge.  Too bad fer them

"Bout 30 years ago the folks at the Body Shop I worked at called my Clyde, as a Music-olly-gist you can maybe figger that one out Leo.

[Leo Tanner]

[Delmonico]

Clue, Buddy Holly's bass player.

[Arcey]

Ahab the arab’s camel?

[Delmonico]

Ahab the arab’s camel?

Nope, and though I don't play bass, I often don't have no shoes.  Wore bibs a lot then.

[Leo Tanner]

Geez Del, I'm a Buddy Holly fan, an there weren't no Clydes in the Crickets.  Think the guy's name was Allison.  Yer drivin me nuts here.  Mebbe ma new Pa can figgure it out.


Leo

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Waylon Jennings was in The Cricketts, don't remember if he was playin'' base though.......Buck

[Leo Tanner]

Waylon weren't in the Crickets, but he was one of the guys that was sposed ta be on the plane that crashed.  He was tourin with 'em, Ritchie Valanz and the Big Bopper.  He lost a coin toss and had ta ride a bus--an he got ta live.  The other guy in the Crickets name was Maudlin.


Leo

[Delmonico]

Waylon was BK's bass player.  Buddy was on a solo tour at the time with out the Crickets.

Jennings was born in Littlefield, Texas, the son of Lorene Beatrice (née Shipley) and William Alvin Jennings.  When Waylon was eight, his father taught him how to play guitar, and Waylon formed his first band two years later. During his time working as a DJ, he befriended Buddy Holly. The two were inspired by the music of the Mayfield Brothers of West Texas, Smokey Mayfield, Herbert Mayfield, and Edd Mayfield. When he was twenty-one, Jennings was tapped by Holly to play bass in Holly's new band on a tour through the Midwest in early 1959. Holly also hired guitarist Tommy Allsup and drummer Carl "Goose" Bunch for the "Winter Dance Party" tour.

During the early morning hours of February 3, 1959, the charter airplane carrying Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. Richardson (aka "The Big Bopper") crashed outside Clear Lake, Iowa, killing all on board. In his 1996 autobiography, Jennings admitted that in the years afterward, he felt severe guilt and responsibility for the crash. After Jennings gave up his seat, Holly had jokingly told Jennings, "I hope your 'ol bus freezes up!" Jennings shot back facetiously, "I hope your damn plane crashes!"[6]

[Leo Tanner]

OK, no Googlin guys (like I can trust ya), what did J.P. stand fer? 
     Don't know why I remember it, but I do.

Still wonderin where the Clyde comes inta things.  It's probably right in front of ma face.

[Texas Lawdog]

Waylon did a stint as a DJ at a station around Lubbock. They even have a street named after Waylon.  Littlefield is west of Lubbock.

[Delmonico]

Can't 'member the JP right now, try to answer the Clyde thing afore I leave at 5.  So simple it is, no Gogglin' either, should I meantion a hound dawg or will that make you think of Elvis, no elvis involved, he was already dead.
