Do they club other fish?
Nope the clubbing was just for the halibut.
Rimshot...

A 1980's oldie...by comedian Kip Addotta...

It was April the Forty-first, being a quadruple leapyear; I was driving in downtown Atlantis.
My Barracuda was in the shop, so I was in a rented Stingray, and it was overheating.
So I pulled into a Shell station; they said I'd blown a seal.
I said, "Fix the damn thing and leave my private life out of it, okay, pal?"

While they were doing that, I walked over to a place called the Oyster Bar.
A real dive. But I knew the owner; he used to play for the dolphins. I said, "HI GILL!" (You have to yell, he's hard of herring.)

Gill was also down on his luck.
Fact is, he was barely keeping his head below water. I bellied up to the sandbar; he poured the usual: Rusty Snail, hold the grunion, shaken, not stirred.
With a peanut butter and jellyfish sandwich on the side, heavy on the mako.
I slipped him a fin, on porpoise. I was feeling good; I even dropped a sand dollar in the box for Jerry's Squids, for the halibut.

Well, the place was crowded. We were packed in like sardines. They were all there to listen to the big band sounds of Tommy Dorsal.
What sole. Tommy was rockin' the place with a very popular tuna, "Salmonchanted Evening", and the stage was surrounded by screaming groupers,
Probably there to see the bass player.
One of them was this cute little yellowtail, and she was givin' me the eye. So I figured this was my chance for a little fun. You know, piece of Pisces.

But she said things I just couldn't fathom.
She was too deep, seemed to be under a lot of pressure.
Boy, could she drink. She drank like a...
She drank a lot.
I said, "What's your sign?"
She said, "Aquarium."
I said, "Great! Let's get tanked!"

Chorus
I invited her up to my place for a little midnight bait.
I said, "C'mon baby, it'll only take a few minnows."
She threw me that same old line: "Not tonight, I got a haddock."

And she wasn't kidding, either, cause in came the biggest, meanest looking haddock I'd ever seen come down the pike.
He was covered with mussels. He came over to me; he said, "Listen, Shrimp.
Don't you come trollin' around here." What a crab.
This guy was steamed. I could see the anchor in his eyes.

I turned to him and I said, "Abalone! You're just being shellfish."
Well, I knew there was going to be trouble, and so did Gill, cause he was already on the phone to the cods.
The haddock hits me with a sucker punch. I catch him with a left hook.
He eels over. It was a fluke, but there he was, lying on the deck, flat as a mackerel, kelpless.

I said, "Forget the cods, Gill. This guy's going to need a sturgeon.
Well, the yellowtail was impressed with the way I landed her boyfriend.
She came over to me; she said, "Hey, big boy, you're really a game fish. What's your name?"
I said, "Marlin."

Chorus
Well, from then on we had a whale of a time. I took her to dinner;
I took her to dance; I bought her a bouquet of flounders. And then I went home with her.
And what did I get for my trouble? A case of the clams

I just looked up on My Direct TV schedule and it says DWTS Monday 8-930,then Skating with the stars after that. Then for Tuesday DWTS is from 9-11. Mark Ballas said the other day that they have two new dances Monday and two Tuesday including one of the dances that the judges thought she did not do well in.

If I remember correctly the judges make the ultimate decision because Tuesday there is no time for viewer voting.

Let's all hope that if Bristol does not appear to be the best then if Kyle is kicking it up a notch then he should get it. Say no to jennifer, the more I think about it, the more I am convinced she is not an amateur and should not have even been on the show. That is not what the Show was supposed to be about, and she is really looking nasty.

Thanks... I’ve seen differing times for the show to end tonight. In fact, I saw one report that said DWTS goes from 8-9:15 tonight!

My wife said Oprah just bought TLC and is taking it over in January and changing the name to O something, the 'Oprah something network'. She better not take off this show or the Duggars or all the other family oriented shows. . . Anyone know the details on this?

I enjoyed the second episode very much, but I thought the editor messed it up a bit. There were too many repetitions of Sarah Palin explaining why she thought it was important for Bristol to get out into nature and away from the spotlight. Explaining it twice would have been enough.

The repetition made Palin look weaker, like she felt she had to keep explaining herself and her choices, or that she isn’t together enough to know she’s repeating herself.

Maybe it was a conscious choice to repeat the message in order to explain to viewers who might only tune in for a brief time?

You’ll be saying repeatedly until Palin loses to Obama in a landslide in 2012 or passes her first budget in 2013 —one that makes Obama’s last one look relatively sane by comparison —assuming the government hasn’t already gone into default by then. So she’s into mountain climbing. Woot. I don’t go for this being “presidential” bullcrap, but gimmickry is not going to turn this country around. It isn’t even postponing the inevitable.

Oh I so enjoyed her show last night. It was funny when she said her friends gave her a baby shower at the shooting range. It would get the libs all wee wee’d up!

You can relax, the FCC has no jurisdiction over cable only television.

They are impotent here. :)

I don’t know. Generous is a spell check error, whereas I think hugh and series and stune and beeber were human typos.

Let’s see any of those Washington larda**es get out to the arctic and climb a rock. Most of those wusses are scared to leave their offices and only do so when they have a waiting limo to run to.

What I find funny is when the media tries to portray a liberal as a real man’s man by dressing him up in athletic clothes and take pictures of him holding a surfboard or football a la John sKerry. 0bama looks like the biggest prissy on the planet doing anything. He sucks away collective man-points just by entering a room.

Damaged goods? The press is absolutely terrified of her, and that’s a good thing. Can Romney, Zero, or a Clinton show up in a random town on three days’ notice and draw a crowd of 10,000 (normal people, not drunks and crackheads that were bussed-in)?

Don’t waste the time? Don’t waste your time on this or any other thread on FR. Who’s your candidate, super-RINO Romney or McCain? Let me know so that I can make fun of your choice.

I guess we will play it by ear, with ABC it is all about ratings and the all mighty dollar.
