"I am Mister ED!"

A horse is a horse
Of course, of course
And no one can talk to a horse of course -
That is of course unless the horse
Is the famous Mister Ed.
Go right to the source and ask the horse -
He'll give you the answer that you'll endorse
He's always on a steady course
Talk to Mister Ed!

People yakity-yak a streak
And waste your time of day,
But Mister Ed will never speak
Unless he has something to say!
A horse is a horse
Of course, of course
And this one will talk 'till his voice is hoarse
You never heard of a talking horse?
Well listen to this:
"I am Mister ED!"

carnaval

Joanie, in a few weeks we have carnaval (which is the festival before fasting (kinda ramadan, no alcohol, no beef, no sweeties)very old tradition and the word means something like : no meat. During this 3 day festival people dress like this person and drink a lot.
Is Mardi Gras coming from this old european catholic tradition, or is it more like thanksgiving (slaughtered another indian tribe?)

Re: carnaval

Sounds the same. It is the last day before fasting for lent, and a celebrated last day at that. Traditionally celebrated as a community in various ways.

PS. The cajuns got along with the indians better than most of the rest of "les americains", in fact a lot of our culture came from them.

Re: "I am Mister ED!"

Hey! I wonder if it can played on the accordion? Thanks for posting that about Mr.ED the talking horse. It brings back good memories. I loved the show. I bet it would be corny watching it now, though.

Re: "I am Mister ED!"



but can you play it on the accordion?

Re: "I am Mister ED!"

I wonder how many times someone got the living crap kicked out of them by a certain horse who was tired of get electrical jolts in his mouth?

Re: Picture

The horse don't want on the picture,
she looks away.

Re: Re: Picture

Might be thinking about the crawfish in the field.
