That's as may be, but it doesn't stop your original comment from being not
only judgemental, but downright vindictive (no need for "stupid", I guess,
as I'm sure that that's all been done to death already).

I have no wish to speak out for someone eminently capable of speaking out
for themselves, but just as a balancing opinion, readers potentially influenced
in their choice of viewing material based on the contents of thie original
article should perhaps also be made aware of the fact that as far as I'm
concerned Lazlo's comments are usually clever, concise, relevant, incisive
and more often than not informative (except when he has obviously had a bad 
day).  Far from being a member of my KILL file, I will inevitably seek out
articles by Mr. Nibble, even when on topics which I have no interest in,
merely to see what this person whose opinion I respect (especially when it
parallels my own) has to say on the matter (and because they are usually, 
as stated above, informative and humourous to boot).

I don't know who you are John A. Davison, and I know for a fact that you
don't know who I am, but I though it fair to answer your flamebait to ensure 
that your "new readers" get the balance right.

Summary: "Threshin' Machine"
Date: 13 Oct 92 02:22:24 GMT
Organization: CS Dept, Ball St U, Muncie, Indiana



The following is a song sung to an old English folk ballad whose name
escapes me completely - everyone who's heard it with me has recognized
the tune so I hope that, if someone reading this has heard it, the tune
might be named in a follow-up.

The lyrics aren't "dirty" but they certainly are fun if you've got a
decent imagination!

"Threshin' Machine"

T'was 'way down in Sommerset or so I heard tell
there was a young lassie, her name it were Nell -
she was high, wide and 'andsome and just seventeen
and she longed for a ride in me threshin' machine.

<Chorus>

I 'ad 'her, I 'ad 'er, I 'ad 'er aye-yay
I 'ad 'her, I 'ad 'er, I 'ad 'er aye-yay
oh I 'ad 'er I 'ad 'er, I 'ad 'er aye-yay
I up and I showed her the way.

T'was early one evening in the merry month of June
when all the young couples were out lookin' at the moon -
I says, Come to the barn, Love, where we won't be seen
and I'll give you a ride in me threshin' machine.

<Chorus>

Well, the pistons and the flywheels were all goin' 'round
when out of the cylinder there came a great sound -
well, I put down my hand for to shut off the steam
but the chaff had been blown from me threshin' machine.

<Chorus>

It was just nine months later on a February morn
when the pride of our Nellie, a baby was born -
and under his blanket could plainly be seen
a brand new, twin-cylinder threshin' machine!

<Chorus>


I first heard this from a "filk-singer" who goes by the name of 
"Moonwolf".  I've heard that he has a few cassettes he's produced
which are sold at conventions where SCA people can be found so
this may even be available "commercially".

Great drinking song!

A couple of corrections and some additions to the list:

"This Mortal Coil" (not "The Mortal Coil")
Iggy's last name is Osterberg (not Osterman)


New entries:

The Dharma Bums - Named after a Jack Kerouac novel.

The Dream Syndicate - Named after a jazz group from the 60's, probably
Ornette Coleman's but I could be wrong.

Let's Active - From a Hello Kitty slogan.  [answering this question
many months ago was my first Usenet post.]

Love and Rockets - The name of Gilbert and Jaime Hernandez's comic book
series (usage of which was unauthorized).  I saw these two at the Misfit
Lit art exhibit, they were not amused ("they didn't ask, and they suck,
too" rough paraphrase).

The Mercy Seat - Gordon Gano's gospel group is named after the slang
for an electric chair.

Poi Dog Pondering - A poi dog is what we on the mainland call a mutt
(mixed, miscellaneous origins).

Spandau Ballet is indeed named after the camp.  It was used after the
trials to house one prisoner only (I believe it was Rudolf Hesse) til
his death sometime in the past decade.

Toad the Wet Sprocket - A future band reference in a Monty Python skit.

For completeness sake, the station was probably "WLIR FM" which is on Long

Somewhere at home I have one of U2 they did way back when (their first album).
My Father's Place was in Roslyn, Long Island (the actual recording site).

If the pope could sing like Sinead, he'd be welcome to
tear up her picture anytime... as things are, he's an
archaic symbol and I think quite an anathema to the good
work Catholic organizations are doing in the Third World
and other places. The "official" church postion on women
and many other issues is, in my opinion, quite deserving
of ridicule. While the current pope may have been a heroic
figure during WWII, he ain't no more. Rock and roll doesn't
have all the answers, but as a former Catholic and current Christian,
I deplore the sick attitudes of the Vatican and religious right,
which, however well-intentioned, are paving the road to spiritual
disease and ignorance.

Derek and the Dominoes was the name of the band that Clapton recorded the
song with. The song is about Harrison's wife(I understand "Have You Ever

wrote it, or if it was just an appropriate cover), and Rocky Raccoon is, I've

Well, in that case, no doubt the TV company will be taking her to court

I suspect however she was being payed to go on the show and be Sinead

That reminds me... I don't suppose _IQ6: Zang Tumb Tuum Sampled_ ever

FGTH's "Disneyland", Propaganda's cover of "Femme Fatale", among others.

Yes, its a sad comment on the intelligence of the viewing audience.  Few seem
to have figured out the point, striking it up instead to the ravings of a 
madwoman or immature pop star.  Strange, too, considering the first postings
I saw about the incident claimed it to be obvious and heavy-handed, lacking 
subtlety.  Seems too subtle in retrospect, I guess ...

Strange, but I find this whole thing much less offensive than the poor
attempts at art and comedy that the networks call television programs.
