Panic in Cheddar Park

Personally, I prefer my heroin straight out of the syringe—the gold running through my veins like a thousand railroad trains and all that—but if you simply must go ahead and snort the stuff, couldn’t you at least come up with a better street name than cheese?

Because sorry, but snorting “Texas cheese” conjures up images that are best left in the closet of your mind, back there in corner, beneath the white parachute pants you wore once and then discarded after a couple of bikers at Angel’s Grotto pub made you drink a wine cooler and sing a Wham! song before putting their boots to your ass like it was a shiny, polyester kickstand.

    “Behold the power of…” …what!?

    Now that’s just plain funny.  Regarless of what’s in your nose.

    That might be one of the absolute best things I have read this year.

    the white parachute pants you wore once

    Sorry, Jeff, but for wearing white parachute pants, you got off easy…especially if you had the requisite faux “afro pick” comb sticking out of your back pocket!!

  6. TODD says:

    ” sing a Wham! song “

    Wouldn’t that best work in a Beverly Hills public restroom?

  7. mojo says:

    Que the Python!

    “…Stilton?”

    “Sorry, just out.”

    “Cheddar?”

    “No, not much call for it around here, I’m afraid.”

    “Not much call for it? It’s the single most popular cheese in the world!”

    “Not ‘round here, guv’nor.”

  8. RiverCocytus says:

    Jeff, you may want to give Bill Whittle a ping.

    If you get my drift.

    Unless you already have.

    In which case that may be taken as a sexual innuendo.

    Ciao.

    To the tune of “Gentle On My Mind”

    That time you said to meet you just to catch up

    Down at Angel’s Grotto pub,

    So we could get together, down a brewski,

    And just maybe get some grub–

    Well I thought that to impress you

    I’d might wear my parachutey-styled pants,

    But the bikers started laughing,

    Made me sing a couple Wham songs,

    And then they got medieval on my ass.

  10. RiverCocytus says:

    My ass was never so beaten

    As when I was five or six

    And I beat Johnny Eaton

    In a game of pick-up sticks

    But not to digress– my ass

    Was likened unto grass

    With several swift and potent

    Motions of the foot

    Now a boy can kicked you bruised

    And a lady can make cry

    But bikers all wear steel toed shoes

    And that should tell you why.

  11. Karl says:

    Black Tar.

    Texas Cheese.

    Next thing you know, ol’ Jed’s a millionaire.

  12. ThomasD says:

    Upon being confronted with bikers familar with the Wham! ouvre an ass kicking would not be my greatest concern.

  13. Dan Collins says:

    Said, “Venezuela is the place you oughta be!”

  14. Dan Collins says:

    Holy Christ, dude!  That little faggot just said “ouvre”!

  15. Dan Collins says:

    To the tune of “Wake Up, Little Susie”

    Break out all the pool cues,

    Break out!

    Break out all the pool cues,

    Break out!

    This guy with the parachute pants

    Is lookin’ for a reason to dance.

    He’s with his whore out on the floor

    Did he say “ouvre” by chance?

    Break out all the pool cues,

    Break out all the pool cues.

  16. happyfeet says:

    but he done spelt it wrong no?

  17. Dan Collins says:

    To the tune of “If You Could Read My Mind, Love”

    But he done spelt it wrong no?

    Maybe we should just let him go.

    Not like he’s dancin’ out there, man,

    With some nappy headed ho.

    When you reach the part

    Where you kick his ass,

    Will that be really neat?

    Humiliate complete?

    Cuz it’s not like he’s some real tough guy

    If you make him cry, is that really something?

    Go and punch him in the eye

    And them smoke some Thai stick and

    Mellow out my friend.

  18. Grisha says:

    So how long is it gonna be before Tylenol PM is behind the counter along with Sudafed and Claratin? Because of, you know, The Children.

  19. Pablo says:

    That little faggot just said “ouvre”!

    The one with the earring and the makeup? Dude, I do not think that’s really his hair.

    Kick my ass

    before you go go.

    Don’t leave me limping

    ‘round like a homo

    Beat my ass before you go go

    Break my femur tonight…

  20. Dan Collins says:

    I need drugs drugs, for to ease my mind

    I need to find, find some drug to calm my

    Fuckin’ sinus, man!

    You can’t hurry drugs, no

    You just have to wait:

    You know drugs don’t work instantly,

    Even ‘fore the sell-by date.

  21. Dan Collins says:

    Scorned and reviled!

    Scorned and reviled!

    Hittin’ my computer

    Head out on the netway

    Typin’ lots of bullshit

    It’s just stuff that I say

    Yeah, baby gonna make it happen

    Piss off Marcotte and some other chicks

    Yeah, there’s a-gonna be cock-slappin’

    You and me and some other pricks

    Like a true ‘puter child

    We are scorned, scorned and reviled

    We can type so fast

    How can this ever last?

    Scorned and reviled!

    Scorned and reviled!

  22. mojo says:

    Dan’s obviously been into the runny Camembert…

  23. Dan Collins says:

    Runny Camembert!

    Runny Camembert!

    Well, you’ve given me a number

    And a-taken away my name!

  24. Radish says:

    I enjoy the wacked-out hallucinatory dreams I have when I fall into a Benadryl-induced nap, but it had never occurred to me until just now to augment them with heroin.

  25. Dan Collins says:

    Benadryl:

    My wife.

    My life.

    –Lou Reed

  26. Tim P says:

    Jeezus H. Christ!!

    You Know the lyrics to a Wham song?

  27. Lew Clark says:

    Tried snorting coke once.  No high and the bubbles made me sneeze (I know, old, old, old).  So I’m not trying cheese, no matter how fine they grate it.

  28. TheGeezer says:

    Beat my ass before you go go

    Break my femur tonight…

    I. love. it.

    Break my femur tonight?

    What a hoot.

  29. PC says:

    Kick my ass

    before you go go.

    Don’t leave me limping

    ‘round like a homo

    Beat my ass before you go go

    Break my femur tonight…

    Oh cripes. I’m seriously laughing here and I really needed that today Dan. LOL It’s been a terrible week cuz of the ‘phrenia. please keep the hits coming if you can.

  30. Bo says:

    If they weren’t so damned clever, I’d be outraged at all the cheezy song lyrics following an artfully inserted John Prine reference by Jeff.

    But as it stands, I’m off to blow up the tv, and feed the kids some peaches…

  31. Major John says:

    To the tune of “If You Could Read My Mind, Love”

    I writhe in shame that I could instantly remember that tune…

  32. Mikey NTH says:

    I’ll avoid all of the eighties dance tune references that the girls were into way back then and just have another beer before lights out.

    So I can be up and ready to pull a patrol for the Wyandotte High School rowing regatta.

    drive98?  It’ll be a few more miles than that.

  33. Mikey NTH says:

    Then purge your mind with “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” Major John.

    Gordon Lightfoot actually got that one right.

    The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound;

    As a wave broke over the railin’;

    And every man knew;

    As the captain did too –

    Twas the Witch of November come stealin’

    cost33?  No; the Big Fitz took twenty-nine men with her when she died that November night.

  34. Major John says:

    Mikey,

    That is better.  Thanks. 

    Maybe I should just run the music from the “Army Strong” video over and over?

  35. McGehee says:

    I writhe in shame that I could instantly remember that tune…

    I have it on the .mp3 CD in my truck.

    And yes, I’m about to burn a whole new CD, without that song.

  36. Mikey NTH says:

    Remember, McGehee, that he also did “Sundown” the quintessential early seventies summer song.

    I can see her lyin back in her satin dress

    In a room where ya do what ya dont confess

    Sundown ya better take care

    If I find you been creepin round my back stairs

    Sundown ya better take care

    If I find you been creepin round my back stairs

    Shes been lookin like a queen in a sailors dream

    And she dont always say what she really means

    Sometimes I think its a shame

    When I get feelin better when Im feelin no pain

    Sometimes I think its a shame

    When I get feelin better when Im feelin no pain

    I can picture every move that a man could make

    Getting lost in her lovin is your first mistake

    Sundown ya better take care

    If I find you been creepin round my back stairs

    Sometimes I think its a sin

    When I feel like Im winnin when Im losin again

    I can see her lookin fast in her faded jeans

    Shes a hard lovin woman, got me feelin mean

    Sometimes I think its a shame

    When I get feelin better when Im feelin no pain

    Sundown ya better take care

    If I find you been creepin round my back stairs

    Sundown ya better take care

    If I find you been creepin round my back stairs

    Sometimes I think its a sin

    When I feel like Im winnin when Im losin again

    deep72?  That’s about right for the year.

  37. Major John says:

    Mikey,

    Now why you go and do that?!  Now I really am going to have to put “Army Strong” on loop play.

  38. B Moe says:

    If they weren’t so damned clever, I’d be outraged at all the cheezy song lyrics following an artfully inserted John Prine reference by Jeff.

    If heartaches were commercials we’d all be on teevee.

  39. jon says:

    Texas Cheese is a great name.  It sounds like it’s made from brains that age in the skull after being removed by chainsaws wielded by dudes with Ed Gein fetishes.

    I ain’t snorting any, but it really is a great name.

  40. Cybrludite says:

    Lovely. It appears that the target market for this “Cheese” is schoolkids. In some cases turning up in the hands of 4th graders. Looks like it’s time to throw necktie parties for the sub-human pieces of crap who’re dealing this stuff.

    The verification word generator agrees with me. A long drop on a short24 rope.

  41. CraigC says:

    Wait, wait, wait. So……you thought inflicting TWO Gordon Lightfoot songs on us somehow made up for the Wham? I’m sorry, I guess that should be “Wham!?” I suppose I could cut you some slack since they’re actually both the same song. Roy Firestone has a very funny bit about how all Gordon Lightfoot songs sound the same where he sings the Star Spangled Banner to the tune of, well, any Gordon Lightfoot song. Try it, it’s fun.

    Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light….

  42. BJTexs says:

    I’ll probably have to endure CraigC’s wrath but…

    The Wreck” is one of my favorite songs of all time, one of the first that I performed during my hippy folk singer phase. While the tune isn’t anything special, the lyrics are sublime. I’m just a sucker for a good storytelling song, anyway.

    The lyric that always gives me chills:

    They might have split up or they might have capsized

    They may have dove deep and took water.

    And all that remains is the faces and the names of the wives and the sons and the daughters.

    Thanks for that link, Karl!

  43. Gray says:

    Because sorry, but snorting “Texas cheese” conjures up images that are best left in the closet of your mind,

    Like all the ‘Fromunda Cheese’ jokes….  Yeccchhhhh.

  44. Swen Swenson says:

    It’s not easy being cheezy, but I think y’all have succeeded.

    By the way, do they cut this cheese?

  45. Mikey NTH says:

    The patrol was just south of where ‘Big Fitz’ was launched in 1958.  A mere youngster (by Lakes reckoning) when she died.

    Sorry, Major John.  I do like ‘Sundown’; it reminds me of Up North and the woods and the lake.

  46. Mikey NTH says:

    Arthur M. Anderson still travels the Lakes.  William Clay Ford is gone, but her pilothouse is part of the Dossin Great Lakes Museum, and she still looks over the Detroit River.  As is an anchor that Edmund Fitzgerald lost in the river; now at Belle Isle.  Of course, her ripped lifeboats are on the Valley Camp at the Soo.

    And Mariners’ Church still recalls her memory in November.  Too many lost to November.
