Oh boo-hoo in Pooh land
Not to long ago we brought you news of the death of Jon Clarke who played brilliant sax for Loggins & Messina
, and we made the crack that he didn’t play in the insipid “House at Pooh Corner.” Well, today, the six degrees of separation
caught up with us. Paul Winchell, voice of Tigger in the Pooh cartoons, has left the honey tree
. Paul was a master ventriloquist
, now described as, “a dying art.” The ODDones say, “Oh contre, there are still Presidential speech writers
.”
Tigger was a friendly critter, but not so of the leopard that attacked the man in Africa. Bad choice for the kitty. The grandfather ripped out its tongue.
We ODDfellows have had an interesting day in Internet land. We were “off the grid,” then we got through to a techie for our ISP who actually said, and we quote, “Sorry, the problem was all on our end. We’ve recycled our servers, and things should be fine. Again, we apologize.” Take us now Lord.
