*watches fireworks and flames* :boggle:

Wow, I return after a long absence and it's like a never left. Feels like home.

Great review, Bloomer. Thank you for your time and considerable effort. Ah, and I do love a mystery solved.

PS - AMAR - damn good bear joke!

I suspect blind and toothless may not be optimum for good whistle playing...but then again...

My wife wonders why I spend time on this board rather than watching "Fear Factor," "Desparate Housewives" and reality TV. Man, C&F has it all over TV: intelligent content, humor, infighting, sexual innuendo. Why would anyone ever watch TV?

Great review, Bloom. Wonderful reparte, ya'll.

What would a wild walrus whistle if a walrus could whistle wild?

The second mouse may get the cheese but the presentation leaves a lot to be desired.

And what if Shaggy and Scooby yanked off Davy Spillane's rubber mask and it turned out to be Bloomfield?
And what if the Spillane whistle could only play these notes in the following sequence? e f d D A?
The possibilities for continued intrigue are endless...
I hardly consider this case closed yet.

I , er, know someone who's seen Bloomfield and Spillane together (and not in one body as was the case with Ray Milland and Rosey Grier in the wonderful hit movie "The Thing with Two Heads.")

Personally, I think Bloo is really He-Who-Shall-Not-Ne-Named. Anybody ever see them at the same time?? Think about it.

My apologies...I've been in a brain fog for the past week and have apparently missed a lot.

If you're being chased by a bear at night, how can you tell whether it's a black bear or a grizzly bear? Climb a tree. If the bear climbs up the tree and eats you, it's a black bear. If the bear knocks the tree over and eats you, it's a grizzly.
The cute thing about that joke is that there is an element of truth in it. Adult black bears can climb, adult grizzlies can't.
How do you tell black bear scat from grizzly bear scat? Grizzly bear scat has bear-bells in it.
The way I heard this one is that a New Yorker goes to a wilderness camp in Alaska. On the first day the guide hands out little silver bell necklaces and canisters of very strong pepper spray, explaining that campers should wear the bells at all times to avoid startling a bear and use the pepper spray only as a last result. Three days into the camp they are hiking when their guide points at a pile of scat and says, "that's from a grizzly."

"How do you know," asked the New Yorker.

"Because it smells like pepper and there are little silver bells in it."

Spillane low d review

Post by perrins57 »

Of course this whole thread is a waste of time. because the Davy Spillane Low whistle doesnt really exist. Bloomfield is really just a Bond baddy stirring up trouble and Brian Howard was posing as Phil Hardy to undermine the competition. Oh, and Dale shot Kennedy from the grassy book surpository.
