WEBVTT 00:00:04.866 --> 00:00:12.012 - Okay, let's be honest. The hottest summer of your life, right? Even as we speak, it's one of those damp, 00:00:12.012 --> 00:00:19.090 - oppressive evenings that Tennessee Williams got at least three plays out of. Right now, the only relief 00:00:19.090 --> 00:00:26.100 - in sight is, not so fast. Remember, on January 15th, you may miss this very much. So on tonight's Back 00:00:26.100 --> 00:00:32.905 - Porch Bloomington, a few sweaty performances by myself and the boys, balanced ever so nicely by the 00:00:32.905 --> 00:00:33.790 - tuba santas. 00:01:05.570 --> 00:01:17.380 - The fighting cop girl makes me mad. So I stopped the car and I turned around. That girl in the edge 00:01:17.380 --> 00:01:30.370 - went back to town. It's another week without something to show her. But I'm better off poor than a scavenger. 00:01:30.370 --> 00:01:34.622 - I don't want to work for no friend. 00:01:38.274 --> 00:01:46.494 - I need a job and I'm bad, bad I need a job and I'm bad, bad 00:02:20.098 --> 00:02:29.845 - I've seen her in the movies. I've seen her in the magazine. I remember love eternally even when I work 00:02:29.845 --> 00:02:39.307 - a handheld dream. Well, she looks so good in lipstick and those grown-up clothes. I was helpless as 00:02:39.307 --> 00:02:42.430 - a baby when she starts her pose. 00:03:00.802 --> 00:03:10.270 - And I saw her was underneath a movie parking. She was posing on a poster looking grown up as a child 00:03:10.270 --> 00:03:19.738 - could be. Well, I must have been a pal when I was younger than me. The only thing I'm looking for is 00:03:19.738 --> 00:03:27.518 - one little kiss. Sometimes she acts precocious. I know she's just an average girl. 00:04:02.882 --> 00:04:12.493 - She might be six years out of diverse, but to me, she's still a bride to me. Well, I know that in the 00:04:12.493 --> 00:04:21.916 - 40s, she'll be nothing at all. By then, I'll probably graduate to law in the fall. Got cardboard in 00:04:21.916 --> 00:04:25.214 - the frame, you know my taste good. 00:04:57.378 --> 00:05:06.621 - I've seen her in the movies. I've seen her in the magazines. I remember love eternally when I wake up 00:05:06.621 --> 00:05:15.683 - and I'll grin. Well, she looked so good in lipstick and those Calvin clients. The most helpless ass 00:05:15.683 --> 00:05:24.926 - of baby, Lord, I wish she were mine. Some say she acts precocious. I know she's just an average girl. 00:05:43.010 --> 00:06:00.126 - Thank you. 00:06:24.098 --> 00:06:34.894 - Don't you know what's going on? I've been taking shots all night to beat Rumpage at the turn out ride. 00:06:34.894 --> 00:06:45.376 - And it's all been happening right next door. Why ever since those two moved in to turn that trailer 00:06:45.376 --> 00:06:50.302 - to a den of sin, I've been sending you a tire. 00:06:50.786 --> 00:06:57.728 - I know there's a lot still on the books If you don't end Paul, somehow will that look? Cause it's all 00:06:57.728 --> 00:06:59.838 - been happening right next door 00:07:21.826 --> 00:07:30.947 - They don't even wait till it's late. You better conduct the raid as soon as you can. I say, looky here, 00:07:30.947 --> 00:07:40.156 - looky here. I say, looky here, looky here. Hey, Sheriff, don't let no one's going on. I got my telephoto 00:07:40.156 --> 00:07:46.558 - lens, 16 rolls of evidence. And it's all been happening right next door. 00:08:12.034 --> 00:08:19.960 - the rain as soon as you can. And I'll be a slap on the cuffs, drag them out and make them rub them up. 00:08:19.960 --> 00:08:27.962 - And tell them what you've got for proof. And when they ask where you get that from, you can't tell them 00:08:27.962 --> 00:08:33.118 - your wisdom as they come. It's all been happening right next door. 00:08:59.746 --> 00:09:06.845 - Tell me, why are you kids going to stay in New York? We're not staying in New York, we're booked for 00:09:06.845 --> 00:09:13.943 - over the holidays. Where? The Colombian pine tree Vermont. Oh, that sounds very Vermont-y. Should be 00:09:13.943 --> 00:09:20.761 - beautiful this time of the year in Vermont, all that snow and everything. Yeah, yeah, beautiful. 00:09:20.761 --> 00:09:27.789 - Herd trees, clean pine air. Very beautiful, just what we need. Oh, wonderful. Could you come up for 00:09:27.789 --> 00:09:29.054 - a couple of days? 00:09:29.666 --> 00:09:37.263 - Well, I don't know. I wish you could. It'd be awfully nice. Miss Haynes, if you're ever under a falling 00:09:37.263 --> 00:09:44.130 - building and somebody runs up and offers to pick you up and carry you to safety, don't think, 00:09:44.130 --> 00:09:51.508 - don't pause, don't hesitate a moment. Just spit in his eye. What did that mean? It means we're going 00:09:51.508 --> 00:09:58.302 - to Vermont. Oh, boy! Might not be bad at that, you know, the snow-covered slopes and skiing. 00:09:59.234 --> 00:10:10.494 - Christianas and the stemming and the potsing and the shushing, hot buttered rum, light on the butter, 00:10:10.494 --> 00:10:21.534 - and snow. Snow, snow. Snow, snow, snow. It won't be long before we'll all be there with snow. Snow, 00:10:21.534 --> 00:10:28.158 - snow. I want to wash my hands, my face, and hair with snow. 00:10:30.786 --> 00:10:43.815 - Snow, I long to clear a path and lift a spade of snow. Snow, to see a great big man entirely made of 00:10:43.815 --> 00:10:57.232 - snow. Snow, where it's snowing all winter through. That's where I want to be. Snowball throwing, that's 00:10:57.232 --> 00:10:59.038 - what I'll do. 00:10:59.362 --> 00:11:12.943 - I'm longing to ski through the snow Those glistening houses that seem to be built of snow Snow To see 00:11:12.943 --> 00:11:26.391 - a mountain covered with a quilt of snow What is Christmas with no snow? Snow White Christmas with no 00:11:26.391 --> 00:11:29.054 - snow Snow Snow Snow 00:11:31.682 --> 00:11:41.684 - I'll soon be there with snow. I'll wash my hair with snow. And with a spade of snow, I'll build a man 00:11:41.684 --> 00:11:51.294 - that's made of snow. I'd love to stay up with you, but I recommend a little shut-eye go to sleep. 00:12:21.122 --> 00:12:27.479 - Christmas concert on the square in Bloomington. We want to thank you all for coming and especially for 00:12:27.479 --> 00:12:34.021 - bringing all these lovely children. Our first selection was a destiny for Dallas, O Come All Ye Faithful. 00:12:34.021 --> 00:12:40.254 - We're going to play it again and we hope you will remember the words to at least the first verse and 00:12:40.254 --> 00:12:46.487 - that you might sing it through with us the second time around.

So please open your hearts, open 00:20:47.175 --> 00:20:55.717 - your wallets, and we have two tuba bells up here which are welcome to receive your contributions.

According to at least two magazines I read, he's up there in 00:29:50.225 --> 00:29:57.888 - Kalamazoo and we're going to go visit him. He's dropped out of sight since his untimely demise in 1977. 00:29:57.888 --> 00:30:05.182 - The last word from the Weekly World News was that Priscilla was buying him some slacks at Safeway. 00:30:05.986 --> 00:30:15.291 - I thought he got his slacks by mail. Oh, there's a change in the life. Son of a gun. We're going to 00:30:15.291 --> 00:30:23.294 - go up to Kalamazoo and visit with the king. This is a king song.

Oh, please let's forget the past. Because the future looks 00:31:48.244 --> 00:31:55.518 - bright ahead. Now don't be cruel. 00:32:10.434 --> 00:32:11.198 - Yes. 00:35:23.202 --> 00:35:23.678 - Hello. 00:36:13.858 --> 00:36:23.027 - It's a hardware here on the piano.

But my bowling game ain't bad. 00:36:32.107 --> 00:36:40.030 - It's genetic to Polish people that they can bowl halfway decently. I've got a good hook. 00:36:42.402 --> 00:36:51.870 - put it up here for inspiration. All right. This tune is, I bowl these games for you. 00:37:15.650 --> 00:37:38.467 - You must know it's true.

I get scared when I told that lie. 00:38:17.538 --> 00:38:35.870 - Look on your sweet face I feel fine I love you baby You must know it's true 00:42:19.298 --> 00:42:28.547 - hounding you, oh, honeybunch. Yeah, honeybunch, why don't you sell that joy and come away with me? Today 00:42:28.547 --> 00:42:37.885 - you got a phone call from that man downtown. He wrote that letter you threw away. It's Monday, 9 o'clock. 00:42:37.885 --> 00:42:47.134 - He'll tell you what they found. On it that his office made a year of taxes you haven't paid, honeybunch. 00:42:47.810 --> 00:43:17.694 - Back porch Bloomington is underwritten in part 00:43:17.954 --> 00:43:20.126 - by a grant from Cook, Incorporated.
