Life Without a Brain



I'd like to be a jelly fish
Cause jellyfish don't pay rent
They don't walk, they don't talk
With some Euro-trash accents

They're just simple protoplasm
Clear as cellophane
They ride the winds of fortune
Life without a brain

  1. Wish I was a Kelloggs cornflake
    floatin in my bowl taking movies
    relaxin a while
    livin in style
    talkin to a raisin who occasionally plays L.A.
    casually glancing at his toupe

  3. You know PB, that was the first song I thought of, but I wanted to be a bit more obscure. Evidently, my cousin wasn't fooled.

  4. Hmmm. This was meant to be a clue to the Quotes Quiz but, as usual, my dear readers ran off in some totally unexpected direction.

    Hoyt? Did someone say Hoyt? Is that a clue?

  12. So Garry Hoyt is the author of which quote?

    I lost track of the unanswered one(s)

  13. Maybe #8, guessing from "Go for the Gold"?

  14. Well done Mojo! How did you ever work that one out?

    Quote #8 was indeed by Garry Hoyt. I found it as a quote at the head of a chapter in one of Stuart Walker's books so I'm not sure if it was from "Go for the Gold" but it might well have been.

  15. If you leave enough crumbs, even a non-sailing mouse can find the cheese.

    Your clues revealed the author (unknown to me).

    The subtitle of his book "Go for the Gold" is "Somebody has to lose... but why you?", so just a guess on that one.

    When is the hat ceremony for the winners?

  16. Hat ceremony is at Fort Adams, Newport this weekend. Anyone who answered a quiz question correctly AND sails their Laser in all the Fleet 413 races on Sunday afternoon, will win a coveted hat of their choice from Tillerman's vast collection of only slightly used sailing caps.

  17. Much obliged, Tillerman.

    Somehow I'm thinking of Pyrrhus just now.

    Go figure.

  18. Mojo: And I thought you had kicked that psilocybin habit last year. Nothing on Wikipedia (which is always right) ever mentioned anything about Pyrrhus giving away "only slightly used sailing caps". Dude, I'm starting to worry about you. You were always the "cousin who would go places". The shame...

  19. There's no such thing as a free hat.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Baydog - bare (sic) with me bro.

    Perhaps this, from Wikipedia (which is always right), will help... victory??

  21. Two hats for anyone who sails all the races wearing nothing but a banana hammock.

    Don't rub it in.

    Do you know what it's like to make your living off of royalties from Bugs Bunny?

    ... the wiener dog gets more respect in the arts world.

    Who's her agent?

  26. Wearing a nothing but a banana slug might be even more uncomfortable.
