Like A Walrus Needs A Clam? (Classic Odd Repost)

2 Nov

November 2, 2013

Do I need a reason for reposting this one? Nah, it just makes me laugh.

from June 28, 2012

You need me
Like a walrus
needs a clam
Like a fat kid
needs a ham
You need me

ANNOUNCER: Yes, I’m sure that everyone within the sound of my voice on the WBTR airwaves remembers those words. Hi, I’m Bruce E. Freedkin and the writer of that beautiful verse from the #1 hit single of 1958, “Eat Me, Porcupine,“ is here with me in the studio. He turns 97 today! Welcome to the show, Max Duffy! Hi Max, how are you today?

MAX: Eat me, porcupine.

ANNOUNCER: That was such a great song, how did you ever come up with it?

MAX: Well, back then we used to work in the Brill Building, all of us song writers. It was wonderful. All of us like-minded people, song writers, just writing music, playing music, sitting around piano, banging out tunes, high on pot, naked as jay birds-

ANNOUNCER: I’m sorry, did you just say-

MAX: There was always plenty of blow around back then too. And the broads! I remember one time Carol King did this thing with her-

ANNOUNCER: Excuse, me, are you saying that back then, when you were writing hit songs for the likes of Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra you were all just, just, –

MAX: Stoned out of our minds. But it wasn’t just the drugs or the booze, it was the power. We were kings! I remember one day not long after Summer Wind was a hit for Frankie we brought in a sack of kittens and some baseball bats and we-

ANNOUNCER: What? I’m sorry but we have to go to-

MAX: -just for the hell of it. Who was going to stop us? We were hot hit song writers, dammit! We did what we wanted! We got The Supremes mixed up with a coven of witches. Except that damn Diana Ross, she was a [BLEEP], quit the group over it. And the orgies!

ANNOUNCER: OK! WOW! That’s it! Thanks Max Duffy! (faintly off mic) Cut his mic! Cut his mic!

MAX: I [BLEEP]ed Marilyn Monroe on a pile of fifties!  

ANNOUNCER: SHUT IT OFF! SHUT IT OFF NOW!

Cut to commercial

The Brill Building. Home of money, madness, and murder.

Allan Keyes Vs. Ralph Edwards and Stu Billet Productions

Dear Ralph Edwards and Stu Billet Productions:  GO F**K YOURSELVES

I’m finding that married life hasn’t improved my disposition much. I’m still a rageaholic – can’t get enough of that sweet, sweet rageahol!

Anyway…..

Remember not too long ago, when Mr. B published a tribute to Ed Koch ?

https://bmj2k.com/2013/02/14/a-tribute-to-ed-koch/

It included a one of kind, very VERY rare clip of a befuddled Ed Koch dealing with multiple clown wrestlers the Behemoth and Titanic Tony arguing over breach of contract for…..something? One of my favorite clips ever.

Well, while that blog and the resulting video went over extremely well with the BMJ2K and YouTube community. Well, except for a couple of old crankypusses that is. Look at this here happy crappy:

You see that????
 claim 

Now as people (sort of) on the outer fringes of the periphery of publishing, I respect copyright as much as the next guy on the street but gimme a freaking break.  This is probably the single most HI-LARIOUS episode of the People’s Court ever, and insofar as I can tell, this was the only available copy online. This was a public service as much as anything else. PEOPLE NEEDED TO SEE TITANIC TONY DAMMIT!!!!

But even that’s not what is galling me. It’s this:

 trd

That’s right. About 287,000 results!!!  But our little clip was singled out.  Hey dummies, you better get to filing copyright claims against all of these people.  Jackholes. I mean geeze, the same cretins that gave wastes of egg and sperm Harvey “TMZ” Levin and Curt  The Court Reporter whatever his name is jobs. I’d rather spend a lazy Sunday hanging out with Doug Llewelyn.

WHY SINGLE OUT MR. BLOG?
