BeBop Posted October 21, 2012 Report Posted October 21, 2012 Playing through some Charlie Parker "originals" today. "Throckmorton the Plumber", "Yashitaki-Mikimoto" and "Half Pass Fass", it was tough not to think of Fasstrack on that last one. Quote

Which I wouldn't deny... As for myself, I've given up trying to keep up with Bird practicing. My new, readjusted target: Tweetie Pie.. If that doesn't work out either waiting in the, um, wings are Heckyl and Jeckyl... Quote
BeBop Posted October 21, 2012 Author Report Posted October 21, 2012 Is this the "edition" you have? Yep. One of my favorite things (lower case). Not rare or valuable, but I remember picking it up as a kid and thinking it was pretty cool. Quote

Took me back. Wasn't Throckmorton a character on Felix the Cat? If not that one a contemporaneous toon. IIRC he was either a spoiled or mischievous brat, always getting into everything. Or maybe I dreamt it (: Quote
