Fantastic word game

Any band camp function without the presence of andreajesus would not be worth writing home about.

Where is she anyway?

I think Dennis Miller said Springer, Maury, etc. are valuable because they let us see what the people who wind up on "Cops" watch during the day.
 
Writing home about the Jerry Springer Show would be a short letter about a long line.

(I confess that I only watched the show all the way through once after we obtained the tickets, although I, of course, have seen coming attractions and read about the show (particularly the opera). What I hoped to discover is whether the guests were paid actors. The first story, too awful to repeat, felt scripted. As I said, there was only one incidence of fisticuffs and one woman who came all the way from New Jersey just to bare her breasts for Jerry, the audience, and some cheap plastic beads. But the audience, to my surprise, was a cross section of people. AND the audience is directed: When to applaud, when to shout, when to stand and pump your fists. And clearly the guests are directed because those who did fight, immediately removed their high-heeled shoes. Although I never did get a satisfactory answer to my questions--are the guests real or paid actors--I feel confident when I say that the audience is there for a good time, you know like watching a gladiatorial event or looking at a freak show. And maybe the guests are hired and maybe the are encouraged to smack each other around. But it, like all experiences, had an interesting side. By the way, I could not bring myself to pump my fists and chant "Jerry! Jerry!"--which led my friend to call me an elitist snob. She may be correct.)
 
I did not but "about" in bold. I realize infractions of the rules drive MC wild, but accidents and typos do happen. Live with it.
 
The opposite of line could very well be dash or it could possibly be unline, as in lined and unlined paper, but unline isn't a word according to Merriam-Webster.
 
A dang good minstrel show, because it was the only minstrel show in the world, could still be seen in London during the swinging 60s.
 
Some lousy movies of the 1960s might include Clambake, Flaming Star, and Frankenstein Created Woman, but not Darling, The Lion in Winter, The Children's Hour, or any of the Spaghetti Westerns.
 
Spaghetti Westerns I can appreciate as an art form, but I was bored to tears by "The Lion in Winter."

Sorry anyacat. I guess we won't be sharing dinner and a movie anytime soon.
 
The Lion in Winter is an amazingly arch look at love, lust. sibling rivalry and power politics, but The Producers never fails to crack me up.

(The Producers, 1968, Zerp Mostel and Gene Wilder)
 
Olyvia Newton John starred alongside John Travolta in a 1976 film, set in the 1950s, involving teen-aged Greasers.
 
Greasers were the guys who kept their cigarette packs in the rolled sleeve of their black tee-shirts and doopers wore beige jeans and cotton madras shirts.

Welcome Darth_vader: A word of warning we take band camp and Olivia Newton-John very seriously here, and we like it if you can spell. So, that would be O-L-I-V-I-A not to be confused with Olive Oyl. ::)
 
Madras shirts and pants are something I just might be wearing while on vacation next week in Anyacat's favorite state of Florida.


Darth, welcome and, for the record, Grease was released in 1978, not 1976.

For your benefit, Darth, these are the rules:

-You must provide your clue in SENTENCE form. Sentence fragments, sentence pieces, sentence bits are not accepted. Please provide a fairly well written (prefereably very well written) actual sentence.

Shuffleboard and croquet on the Lido Deck at high noon. Welcome aboard. ;D
 
Anyacat's favorite state of Florida has a pretty strange little band camp that made Anyacat very unhappy, but she came back to our band camp playing TFWG


(and I won't take it too hard that the band camp mixologist was overlooked. :-\ Glad to see a new player. Welcome, Darth Vader! :)
 
Our band camp playing TFWG is known round the world.


Silkie, while you are an extremely important and productive mixologist and we are happy to have you, you aren't on the Executive Staff which is what I specifically listed. Look back and re-read. ;)
