I will never again be able to think of Lawrence Welk without also thinking of heroin and transvestites.

No. Frickin'. Way. This made my night.

Who knew you could cha-cha to "Sister Ray"?

Nobody kicked it like Lawrence. You should hear his cover of Venus in Furs.

Beautiful.

Speaking of Lawrence Welk, here is a link to a real Welk cover of Brewer & Shipley's "One Toke Over the Line." Gale and Dale, the clean-cut performers who were singing in this clip, apparently weren't aware they were wailing about weed.

Too much. No really - too much. The dancers were particularly charming.

Perfect! Recognized that song right away. Too freaking funny.

Here's another fun one. The Simpsons doing Iron Butterfly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZ9J1RfoYjQ

That Lawrence, he could get those old guys to dance to ANYthing.

Whoa. That's all I've got...

This is hysterical. I didn't know that Lou Reed played the banjo.

rated

Leeandra Nolting. This is terrific. Do you dance?
I'll try to bang on the banjo?
Ya stepped on Noirville's toe?

The title:` ... This made me happy, So very happy.
Yes!
Ah!

Happy lures Ya in the morn if Ya are feeling drowsy?
Then, after following Kevin Lee, an addition sense?
Yikes, more wacky-happy! Noirville Footinlocker!

In my lame foot opinions, `
A OSer's good-wacky, fun!
I like to wake-up to mirth!
Jollity ~ is sober merrily!
People deserve - happily!

Sobriety is better than drunken company. I tease (?) about drinking too many thimbles of Woodchuck Apple Cider, Salon beer pubs, Salon tanning beds, and Salon podiatrist services for Noirville?

Foot-in-locker... huh?
You do understands?
saddest blood sheds?
Hate!
I vent!
forgive?
I digress.
no apology?
Then, no forgive.
politicos are misery.
Misery should awaken.

forebear? as I will vent.

Look at all these sad-haters!
TVs/radio numbskull spiels!
Premeditated and murderous?
Yes!
Who are these architects of many wars?
I'll mock the CEOs. Oy, a- 18- high-level?
Take a ocean cruise with decadent blokes?
What misery!
The Wa/Po's Sunday had a boat cruise piece.
Creeps on luxury cruise? Seasonal boat resort.
decadence galore!
who they a' foolin'?
only the same fool!
`
Where am I going with this cranky rant/vent?
I guess I'm trying to remain cranky as a fat-cat!
But, why be imbibing misery? Cranky's no fun.
`
To take a cruise on a 18- high canoe-deck is fun?
Not in my opinion. Folk flee. Creeps need bleep.
Bleep the creep who go on Virgin Island cruises?

I'm nor anti-enjoy life, but a war and decadence?
The people who laze about seek to screw people.
Creeps shed blood by proxy.
Creeps make money from war.
Cowards send youth to spill blood.
Creeps endorse hate rhetoric spiels.
Creeps lose senses and yearn to:` blows?

You heard that joke ref:` Bubbles in DC?
Politicians get bored and look for Bubbles?
Bubbles drives into DC and blows Politico's.

This is not an assault on blow jobs. Oh, wows!
This is not a tease toward beautiful affections!
This is not gonna be a easy comment to convey!
`
I'm just saying. Good morning. Thanks for giggles.
I should just stick with reading peoples love poems.
Hypocrisy and deletes, war and greed... I condemn.
`
Anything that helps dissipate sadness and anguish?
I commend. I hate to descend too long in an abyss.
I love coming back to non-pessimism and I hate?
I hate the hate sentiment when I see it in society.
I hate human traits that condones the:` cruelly.

Double standards, immoral creeps, and war...
Dispositions that affirm the descent to hell...
Denounce and verbally condemn those ilk...

I'm saying:`People deserve to Wake happily!
This Post does lift up a happy morn disposition.
Good.
no despair.
yes dismay.
to act kind.
So - thanks.
a world cab become ludicrous. I agree. Oh, this makes me happy. So very happy.
No stub toe.

Good morn.

Owl spell?
Owl spiel?

Wow. Thanks for all the comments. (Lawrence Welk and The Velvet Underground and Arthur James poetry all at once?!?!? I don't know if my brain is up to all of that.)

@Brian--Those girls were creepy, but damn, they COULD harmonize.

Awesome. My grandmother loved Lawrence Welk; I'm sure she couldn't understand the lyrics. I was undoubtedly dancing! Rated

I remember being made to watch the Lawrence Welk show as a kid...
This is hilarious!
