Whatever happened to Jeff Davis?

I don't remember them using "Them", but IIRC they worked The Who, The Guess Who, The Band, and Yes into the routine. I haven't heard it in 30 years or so, so my recollection may be hazy. But to answer the question, "Them" is a novel by Joyce Carol Oates, which unfortunately contains no skiing content whatsoever. Is that the one with Peter Graves and the giant nucleated ants living in the Los Angeles storm drains near the LA River? Oops. Should have read further. Yes to Aunties, no to Graves. Flamethrowers anonymous got a big boost from this one. ObSki: Looks like it's going to snow like crazy this week - everybody pile in the family wheels and head on up. |

I don't know who "Andweeb" is but Jeff Davis is very real and has been trolling USENET for a longggg time - since at least 1994. He's a Unix and Deadhead rolled into one. Really? He's so perfect I figured Andweeb was having a blast. Especially when he got Biggers rolling. Oh, by the way. Andweeb is Andrew McLean. Along with being a world class mountaineer and the incompetent expedition leader responsible for the disaster at Shishipangma, he's also a pathological liar and a gutless coward who committed a felony over this stupid newsgroup. So much for heroes, eh? Scott, you are such an asshole |

Not without reason, we even have trouble with rain around here :-( You use chains in the rain? Jeez, and I thought Texans were stupid. |

And a fine film starring James Whitmore, James Arness AKA the un-friendly Matt Dillon, and a score or two of slow, clumsy, nuclear family ants. No uncles. Sounds like they took a lot of liberties turning JCO's novel into a screenplay. -- //-Walt // // http://tinyurl.com/3gg3e |

Yes, it was the Credibility Gap, not Firesign Theatre. You can listen to the routine he http://www.harryshearer.com/credibility_gap.htm -- Merlyn LeRoy |
