Hmm... Who Would Win?

The Fab Four or The Four Horsemen? In this context of pure ''what if'' or rather  ''if this happened... what then''  sort of psychotronic purée...  We have got to break it down here,  one by one  (or, rather, two by two - eh?)  in order to possibly make any sense of it... George Harrison versus Arn Anderson  John Lennon versus Ric Flair  Paul McCartney versus J.J. Dillon  Ringo Starr versus Tully Blanchard  With the Three Stooges (who were, also, four!)  and the 4 Marx Brothers  looking on... from up there, realistically!?  Suspension of disbelief is truly extended to infinity  with these sort of things...!  Athos, Porthos, Aramis and D'Artagnan  could show up too - under these parameters!!!  But that's another story...  For other blogs - or fan fiction, perhaps?  Wooooo!

Hmm... Another Act That Mysteriously Made It To The 21st Century: Rita-Rita!

Everybody was marveling in itty-bitty Quebec, this Christmas season, over a certain Christmas-themed new CD release, from the artist formerly known as... Rita-Rita. Now, do not get me wrong here: I always thought the artist in question is a diamond in the rough, an overlooked and too often underrated TRUE ARTISTE - who simply had the misfortune of having tried to start off her career in a most commercial (and sort-of corny, tongue-firmly-in-cheek) way, as "Rita-Rita" - she who sang surrounded by alien misfits and other oddities... I liked the "joie de vivre" and all-around contagious goofiness that permeated the atmosphere when Rita-Rita sang... uh... okay, I forget the title of the one track that made it as a single release (and that got a video-clip shot for it as well) but I remember that it sure did ROCK! And that should be good enough for YOU too! ;) Now, we are in 2008 - soon to be 2009... "Rita-Rita" is long dead - for years now, the arti...

Hmm... It's Satan's Claws Time Again?!?

You better watch out You better look out Satan's Claws are coming to town! He knows if you've been naughty He knows when you have sinned...! He knows if you've been good or bad So that he can dish out punishment - HO! No wonder kiddies confuse Halloween and Christmas all the time! What will it be when St. Valentine's Easter Day rolls around - eh? ;)

Hmm... There's No Christmas Manger Without Baby Jesus, True, But...

These obvious Family Guy fans (could have been worse - instead of Seth MacFarlane, they could have been Todd McFarlane fanboys!) have an irreverent and all-around goofy approach towards CNN, GOD and everything in-between (including laughable recent multi-mediatic fads and... Susan Crabtree!) But really now - with flying around the globe required a batty dude who CANNOT FLY to carry around and so many references to the sea (from the absurd concept of a "gingerbread house under the sea"... to Susan Crabtree!) there is no excuse for not having invited an Aquaman and/or GL plush (see linked pics) or these two batty ones instead (see pic below) - to the "big rescue mission" here... The final catch would have been that much more plausible logical, probable, ah, and "cushioney" as well... not to mention that much more enjoyable for all! She would have made more sense than Batty as well... But I guess that the makers of the video couldn't afford to "col...
