capnwilliam Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 One of the greated sailors of his or any era, who opened up the Spanish Main to centuries of plunder, and whose efforts earned me a day off work today!

Cap'n Coyote Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 God Bless Vespucciland! It's not a total non-sequitur. Check out Firesign Theatre's Temporarily Humboldt County. Transcript Rumors of my death were right on the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind Rhoid Pyle Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 God Bless Vespucciland!It's not a total non-sequitur. Check out Firesign Theatre's Temporarily Humboldt County. I love the Firesign Theater! Funny stuff. On their album, The Tale of the Giant Rat of Sumatra, there is a wonderful scene where Hemlock Stones, the Great Defective, sends his companion and biographer, Dr. John Flotsom, O.D., into a Pirate Pub! Lots of great bawdy stuff there. As for Christopher Columbus, what can you say about the man who introduced tobacco and syphllis to Europe?

Cap'n Coyote Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Not to totally steal this thread, but both FT's homepage and Laugh.com have reissues available of several of their albums. Rumors of my death were right on the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
