I usually look upon myself as an easy-goin' kinda guy. Der is, however, one exception ta da rule. I have come ta hate intensely da person dat invented da zipper. Not a week has gone by since dis nasty invention came inta our lives dat I don't curse da inventor ta hell, which I imagine as his body encased in a hot burning steel pair a pants and shirt dat can only be removed by a zipper dat runs down da front and da back and can never be removed cause it is constantly jammin'. I have lately been extending my hate and spleening my vent upon da American packaging industry- dose wizards of cardboard and plastic and tape wid dose little instructions printed on dem: Push, Pull, Open Here, Mutilate yourself here. How many teeth have been pulled out by dose easy open ketchup packs? How many fingers have been lost by dose screw-on caps with thin tamper evident protective seals which must be pulled out by means a finger loop after removing the screw on cap? Dose new soup cans dat don't require a can opener are killers, too. It's only a matter a time before urban gangs will be walking down da street wid cans a Campbell's Chunky Soups sticking outta der baggy pants, ready ta slash you atta moment's notice. Da mail-order online industry has probably got da highest death toll. I recently ordered a shirt from a high-end clothing store dat used ta be a sporting goods shop. I can't reveal da name but it has two names one of which rhymes with "bitch." Dey put out deese fancy catalogues wid sexy looking young people wearing der clothes. I'm glad der wearin' something, unlike Lady GaGa who seems ta be wearing a lot a plastic packaging, mostly a da see tru variety. Well, da purchases from da store arrived with smart promptitudosity. Two flannel shirts came in a cardboard box sealed wid a tape dat woudda put a welder outta business. I couldn't find da beginning a da tape so I attacked da package wid da Hell Cat's sewing scissors. After da tip flew offa dem, I attacked it wid da largest carving knife dat I could find in da kitchen, den a can opener, and an ice pick and a stream a profanities dat would make a mailer slush. Der's a well placed hole in da flannel shirt, but I got dem out. Den der's da bubbles. No, not Mrs. Lewandowski. I mean da plastic packaging dat was designed by da ancient Egyptian ta preserve der Pharoahs. I'm not talking about da bubble wrap wid dose tiny bubbles dat you like ta pop. No, dose big plastic bubbles dat hold products in der cardboard traps and defy ya ta try ta remove da products wid somethin less dan surgeon's scalpels. Suddenly I had dis vision uv a future America sealed tightly in a plastic bubble dat said: Press here for easy opening.

Nightmares
Episode 131
My loverly wife Helen (AKA da Hellkat)keeps having chronic nightmares as far back as da Chucky Cheese incident, which is keeping da law firm of Walker and Cane happy, but da poor Hellkat is suffering. In one recurrin' nightmare, da poor Hellkat was trapped in a pizza parlor, facing death by anchovy pizza. In another, she was drowning in deep pools of Coca Cola (She has always been a Pepsi drinker). At their worst, the nightmares occurred on an almost weekly basis, leaving her jittery and desperately tired.
"I would wake up so terrified that I was afraid to go back to sleep," da poor Hellkat says. "And the bad feelings were hard to shake. I would continue to feel frightened throughout the next day."
Dere's nothing unusual about having an occasional nightmare (which sleep experts define simply as a bad dream dat causes the sleeper to wake up). But up to 8% of da adult population suffers from chronic nightmares, waking in terror at least once a week.
Sometimes the nightmares are so frequent and so upsetting that they make sound sleep all but impossible, setting da stage fer fatigue and emotional problems like anxiety and depression.

Nightmares vary widely in der themes and specific content -- experts say dey can be "about" anything -- but all cause fear, sadness, anger, shame, or another negative emotion. They occur during REM sleep, typically in da latter part of the night. Though more common in children and adolescents, dey also strike in adulthood.

In many cases, chronic nightmares are triggered by psychological stress -- such as dat stemming from post-traumatic stress disorder, a severe anxiety disorder that strikes people who have been exposed to combat, violent assaults, accidents, natural disasters, and other terrifying ordeals.

"Lots of people think that nightmares can't be treated," says Henry Quackenbush, PsyD, director of the behavioral sleep medicine program at Montefiore Medical Center's Sleep-Wake Disorders Center in New York City. "But there are effective treatments."
On da recommendation of our own doctor, I began taking da Hellkat der for treatments.
Da treatment involves da use of perfumes, will power, and music, any of which can be procured at your local Walmart. Just ask fer da "Nightmare kit." I would do dis treatment fer da Hellkat at home. She sits down on da couch and relaxes-which is a tough assignment right at da start for a nightmare victim. Her face is covered wid four layers of gauze, muffling nose, mouth, eyes, and ears. Jasmine and tuberrose perfumes are den dropped on da gauze and symphony music is played. If da symphony happens ta be out on tour at da time, or we run outta chairs in da house, chamber music has ta do. Sometimes I just hum Night on Bald Mountain. Den da poor Hellkat gets sleepy and is supposed ta run tru a series of daydreams, carefully selected in advance by Doctor Quackenbush, retracing da ideals of da poor Hellkat's youth, such as baking a large Chocolate cake or running a canoe rental landing on Lake Wallenpaupack. She lies der fer half, maybe three quarters of an hour, with a soft gong sounding from time ta time. Da gong is a signal ta change dreams or run from Chuck Barris. Da gong was not covered by Medicare. No matter where you are in da daydream when da gong sounds, she's supposed ta change ta another daydream. Den at da precise time da nightmare is introduced and told ta do its worst. Jasmine and tuberrose perfumes are den kickin in, but da symphony orchestra has knocked off at five and gone home. Da doctor says dis treatment also works fer depression, insomnia, anxiety, and confusions. Boy, I could use a couple a dose confusion treatments myself.

Pops McGonigle

Poker Anyone?

When da Hellkat has her girlfriends over for a game of cards, dey usually try ta send me outta da room or preferable outta da house. I used ta heckle from da sidelines when dey played their game of SKAT. Dey seemed ta have landed on dis game because dey could keep up a tre way conversation widout gettin too confused about da game. Dey even had dis gizmo to pass da stockpile of cards around so dey wouldn't get confused over who was next ta draw. Well my hecklin caused some a dem ta refer to me as Sweet Antique Pops or sometimes just the initials were used. So last week I knew somethin was up because I was being eased outta da house, but den I saw someone tryin ta slip in wid a tray a poker chips. "So long, have fun bowling, Pops," dey said. I said hey, what's dis when I came back inta da udder room. Are dose poker chips, I said.

Bix Beiderbecke (cornet), Tommy Dorsey (trombone), Don Murray (clarinet), Paul Mertz (piano), Tommy Gargano (drums)
Recorded: Richmond, Indiana, January 26, 1925 This is Bix’s first recording under his own name and includes musicians from the Jean Goldkette Orchestra, an organization that had just given Bix the boot for his poor sight-reading skills. On this date, though, sight-reading wasn’t even an option. Bix was composing the piece as he went along and his friends did their best just to keep up. Although Bix’s long, laid-back solo boasts nothing of the martial precision that would mark his best years, his grasp of melody is perfect. Even while improvising, he lends the tune wonderful shape and clarity. Don Murray provides effective counterpoint and, unfortunately, Tommy Dorsey doesn’t have much to do. Still, the dreamy swing of Bix’s playing undoubtedly helped to shape the Sentimental Gentleman’s future.

Recorded: New York, February 1, 1927 Jean Goldkette had fired Bix for his poor reading skills, but later rehired him, forming the hottest white dance band of its day. After a nationwide tour, the “Famous Fourteen” squared off against Fletcher Henderson’s post-Satchmo outfit in a legendary battle of the bands at New York’s Roseland Ballroom. Henderson’s cornetist Rex Stewart called the experience “humiliating,” and it was partly due to audience favorites like “My Pretty Girl,” which the band recorded a few months later. Bix retreats to the background as Polo on clarinet and Trumbauer on saxophone take a scorching lead, bowing out only briefly for Venuti’s two fiddle breaks. The action, meanwhile, is driven by Brown’s incomparable slap bass. “You know, Steve was even better known to more people at that time than Bix was,” saxophonist Doc Ryker remembered.

Bix Beiderbecke and His Gang Jazz Me Blues Bix Beiderbecke (c), Bill Rank (tb), Don Murray (cl), Adrian Rollini (bsx), Frank Signorelli (p), Chauncey Morehouse (dr) October 5, 1927 Bix recorded most of his best stuff in 1927. This is the height of his playing. “Jazz Me Blues” was one of the very early jazz standards (its name derives from the origins of the word jazz as an unmentionable act). Bix’s solo was so definitive, it became difficult for musicians afterward to perform the number without imitating it.

He befriended Bix, becoming not only a musical collaborator but almost a kind of father figure. He was stable and responsible in ways that Bix could never be. Bix’s musical adventurousness, meanwhile, always brought out the best in Trumbauer. (Trumbauer didn’t have much of a career after Bix died.) Pee Wee Russell was a notoriously eccentric, melancholy, tall & angular, heavy-drinking, squeaky-sounding clarinet player who lived long enough to give a young Billy Crystal lessons. Joe Venuti & Eddie Lang were both Italians from Philly (Lang’s real name: Salvatore Massaro). Lang died very young, in 1933, of a botched tonsillectomy. Venuti was one of the great practical jokers in jazz history. Their collaborations anticipated Stephane Grappelli and Django Reinhardt, who created a famous ensemble called the Hot Club of France. When Goldkette’s band broke up after their NYC gigs, Bix, Trumbauer, Venuti, and Lang formed a band led by Rollini, but it only lasted a week or two. Then Bix & Tram joined the Paul Whiteman Orchestra, the biggest, most famous, best-paying band in the country.

Bix’s most famous and important recording. His solo, though improvised, feels like a perfectly finished composition. Trumbauer’s sax solo is great, too (Trumbauer directly influenced the great, unbelievably cool tenor saxophonist Lester Young). “Singin’ the Blues” is considered the first jazz ballad, and it shows how Bix invented the “cool” style of jazz playing that contrasted sharply with Louis Armstrong’s more dominant and flamboyant style. (In many ways, they were on different planets stylistically, but all evidence suggests that Bix & Louis really respected and liked each other.) Bix always stayed in the middle register occupied by the human voice, playing the minimum notes necessary.
Singing the Blues – Sol Ho‘opi‘i’s Novelty Trio March 27, 1928 Ho‘opi‘i (1902–1953) was born in Honolulu, the youngest of 21 children. He was known as the master of the Hawaiian guitar, and his trio often adapted blues and jazz standards of the day.
Singin’ the Blues – George Gershwin Gershwin recorded this (and many other popular tunes) on a piano roll in the 1920s.
Singin’ the Blues – Geoff Muldaur’s Futuristic Ensemble 2003 Geoff Muldaur is an important folk and blues singer who grew up listening to Bix records. Here, he arranges a version of “Singin’ the Blues” that dispenses with Bix’s solos, but adds vocals courtesy Martha Wainwright (daughter of Loudon Wainwright III, one of the many “next Dylans”).
Pops McGonigle read this story while he was down at the Bid-A-Wee-Wee Day Care Center.
While the town of Hawley, PA was suffering from a rat infestation, a man dressed in pied clothing appeared, claiming to be a rat-catcher. His name was Ignaz Poniatowski He promised the townsmen a solution for their problem with the rats. The townsmen in turn promised to pay him for the removal of the rats. The man accepted, and played a musical pipe to lure the rats with a song into a van that would take them and release them in Arizona. His first batch of rats was mostly female rats who were dressed in little blue jeans with raised paws and they kept chanting and screaming as they went along: " Take Back the Cheese!" His second group of rats was mostly male rats who were dressed in tight little blue jeans with red bandanas in the back pockets with raised paws and they kept chanting and screaming as they went along: " Take Back the Fudge!" Despite his success, the people reneged on their promise and refused to pay the rat-catcher the full amount of money. Poniatowski left the town angrily, but vowed to return some time later, seeking revenge. On a Sunday while the inhabitants were in church, he played his pipe yet again, dressed in green, like a hunter, this time attracting the politicians of all parties in Hawley. One hundred thirty politicians followed him out of the town, where they were lured into a cave and never seen again. The deed had the opposite effect. The people of Hawley cheered him for his good deed and he was elected the next mayor of Hawley and they all lived happily ever after.

Da police car pulled up in front of da house on Wisteria Lane, and I gets out.

Da polite policeman, I tink his name was Sgt. Redenbacker, explained to da Hellkat aka my loverly wife Helen dat I said that I was lost in da park...and couldn't find my way home. "Pops", said da Hellkat , " You've been going to dat park for over 30 years ! So how could you get lost ? " Leaning close to da Hellkat, so that the policeman couldn't hear. I whispered, " I wasn't lost.....I was just too tired to walk home."
So to honor or recompense da police department, I'm going ta give you a rash --of police jokes:A Rabbi and a Priest are driving one day and, by a freak accident, have a head-on collision with tremendous force. Both cars are totally demolished, but amazingly, neither of the clerics has a scratch on him.

After they crawl out of their cars, the rabbi sees the priest's collar and says, "So you're a priest. I'm a rabbi.

Just look at our cars.

There is nothing left, yet we are here, unhurt.

This must be a sign from God!"

Pointing to the sky, he continues, "God must have meant that we should meet and share our lives in peace and friendship for the rest of our days on earth."

The priest replies, "I agree with you completely.

This must surely be a sign from God!"

The rabbi is looking at his car and exclaims, "And look at this!

Here's another miracle!

My car is completely demolished, but this bottle of Mogen David wine did not break.

Surely, God wants us to drink this wine and to celebrate our good fortune."

The priest nods in agreement.

The rabbi hands the bottle to the priest, who drinks half the bottle and hands the bottle back to the rabbi.

The rabbi takes the bottle and immediately puts the cap on, then hands it back to the priest.

The priest, baffled, asks, "Aren't you having any, Rabbi?"

The rabbi replies, "Nah... I think I'll wait for the police."
2. A juggler, driving to his next performance, was stopped by the police. "What are those knives doing in your car?" asked the officer.

"I juggle them in my act."

"Oh yeah?" says the cop. "Let's see you do it." So the juggler starts tossing and juggling the knives.

A guy driving by sees this and says, "Wow, am I glad I quit drinking. Look at the test they're making you do now!
3. A policeman stops a lady and asks for her license. He says "Lady, it says here that you should be wearing glasses."

The woman answered "Well, I have contacts."

The policeman replied "I don't care who you know! You're getting a ticket!"

4. I tink I told dis one before, but here goes anyways:
A police officer attempts to stop a car for speeding and the guy gradually increases his speed until he's topping 100 mph. He eventually realizes he can't escape and finally pulls over.

The cop approaches the car and says, "It's been a long day and my tour is almost over, so if you can give me a good excuse for your behavior, I'll let you go."

The guy thinks for a few seconds and then says, "My wife ran away with a cop about a week ago. I thought you might be that officer trying to give her back!"
