Belle, Wikipedia has some stuff about them. They were a 'comedy troupe' kind of a bizarre nature. I'd like to compare them to Monty Python but they were much further "out there"... after you read about them on Wikipedia, if you're still curious, I'm sure you could find some of their stuff on Amazon or similar sites...
You could try "We're all Bozo's on this Bus" as Jonny Lingo mentioned although I never listened to it because I was...
...waiting for the electrician or someone like him...
Heh - what was the album with the commentators on the Russian olympic gymnast and the guy confessing to a priest?!?!?! - LOL - You talk to your mother with a mouth like that? I wont quote anything from the gymnast gig...

First of all, just what is a "shillegah?" And Rumrunner, do you have one?
And, yes, "We're All Bozos On This Bus" was great, and so was "Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me The Pliers". I can't remember which routines were on which album othar than of course the one routine where all those bozos were on that bus honking their noses. Haw hee!
Now I'd like to hear those damned things again, to see how wasted we really were back then. And hey, I'll bet I could download one from Limewire. Ya know, I was telling my kids about Cheech And Chong, and I ended up downloading "Dave's Not Here", and "Sister Mary Elephant".
Class.....Class!..........Classsss!!!!!!Cla....Shaddupp!!!!!!!!!........Thank you

Well, I think it will become apparent that they may have gleaned this material from the lost teachings of PFAL that were so calously dashed asunder on the cutting room floor.
Don't mind me. I've been up for days shooting reds and yellows.

It's a (ahem) rod shaped walking stick. It's pronounced shi-lay-lee. Saw one once; it was all knobby. Like Roseanne says, only the male mind could conceive of one inch equalling 100 miles.

Amazing the threads that take off here at the GSpot.
I'd love to stay and play tonight, but some wonderbird sent me some "study material" so's I can experience first-hand what y'all are reminiscing about. 'Scuse me while I grab my, err.. material.... and start studying.
Speaking of "home delivery" there's another way the US should catch up with the Netherlands. In the Netherlands 70% of live births are at home compared to 5% in the US yet the mortality rate is the same in both countries. we had all 3 of our kids at home in the People's republic of Miichigan and they sent social workers to harass us every time. But Michigan's a blue state and Missouri, where we now live, is a red state. We don't get hassled here. Guess it depends on how you want to live.

I wish I could've too - Boy, do I wish I could've too.
So, this Firesign Theater and whatnot... it's radio shows? Or comedy 8-tracks folks bought?

Runner - that was
"That's not Funny - Its Sick!"
Had the cartoon on the front with a sign "Try our Froglegs" and the little frog coming out of the kitchen in a skateboard thing - no legs.......
It was Nadia Comaneci that was the gymnast.

If you will,consider :
a.) The slang definition of Bozo
b.) The meaning of "bus" as related to computers
c.) They traveled into the future in a time machine

Didn't they do that routine about Mr Rogers?
"Whimbly wambly -
Opps! I dropped my sweater!"
"Name 3 famous Mickeys"
"Mickey Mouse, Mickey Mantle, and umm, ummmm, Ummmm -

Happy listening Belle. I just downloaded "We're All Bozo's On This Bus" for old times sake. I haven't taken the time to listen to it yet though...
