Cute kids update
SAM (6): I was wearing my Fancy-Schmancy Ultra Limited Edition Secret Stash In-house Promo Venture Bros shirt today, which attracted Sam’s interest.
SAM: Who’s that?
DAD: This? This is — [dramatic voice] — The Monarch!
(no response)
DAD: He’s a bad guy.
SAM: I can see that!
Meanwhile, KIT (4), has taken it upon herself to put together a new lineup of The Beatles:
To those who believe that Ringo is irreplaceable, here is your answer: Ringo is replaceable, if he is replaced with BATMAN FROM THE FUTURE and A SHARK ON A POSTAL DELIVERY TRUCK.
A band, I think, is like a shark. You know?
I had no idea Pete Best was a Batman from the future.
Pete Best: I am the Bat!
Paul McCartney: Yes, yes. You’re “the bat”! And “the bat” is the reason why we lost “best new group” to Rory Storm and the Hurricanes… again! Nobody’s going to want to hire the hard-rocking quartet of John, Paul, George, and THE BAT!
Pete Best: The night is mine.
As for their decision to hire shark-on-postal-truck during Ringo’s ’68 walkout, well, this is a band that was named by a hallucinatory man on a flaming pie. Perhaps shark-on-postal-truck was another of the Maharishi’s big-dollar metaphors?
I eagerly await seeing what Venture Bros related creativity Sam comes up with, once they finally start making Monarch-and-henchman action figures.
Re: A band, I think, is like a shark. You know?
It occurs to me, after reading your reply, that the shark on a postal truck might be Allen Klein.
Re: A band, I think, is like a shark. You know?
I’d always suspected Ringo would someday rip off his own face and be revealed as an alien.
Batman from the future doesn’t seem that far.
I love this post. 🙂 It made me happy.
I have that Monarch T-shirt. ‘Tis quite cool.
You have a very wise daughter.
So Pete Best was replaced with Ringo. And now Ringo has been replaced by Batman from the future.
The fab 4 are morphing into The Justice League. What next, Supes on bass?
Oh wow, just noticed this post, I’d KILL for that shirt!
If there is no upper limit for who you would kill, and when, we may be able to strike a deal.
Alas, I can only go as high as low political figures in small countries with no armed services.
So studio executives shouldn’t be a problem.
