Peter and the Wolf

[Shapley]

I'll suffer through it, and be thankful for small favours (i.e., it's not the Jonathan Winters version). The music is actually kind of pretty, it's just the story that drives me bonkers.

[navneeth]

I shall enjoy it, and imagine all the folks who don't diving for their volume controls...

Or enjoying Vivaldi's lute concerto played on a guitar.

Peter and the Woof coming up next. :anticipation:

[Trumpetmaster]

Glad peter and the wolf is finally over....

[Selma in Sandy Eggo]

It's on again! A new narrator, but I'll bet it still ends badly for the wolf.

Selma...are you "digging" on Scotland the brave? Nice pipes and band eh?

[Selma in Sandy Eggo]

Muwahahahah!

It's the Jonathan Winters version, complete with Jonathan Winters side commentary. As always, I'm enjoying the sarcastic observations. And the funny voices.

Selma,
Your comments re: PATW have always left me slightly uneasy. Did you ever apply to be an interrogator at GITMO?

I only ask because your glee in "watching" us suffer when PATW comes on borders on the.....unhealthy.

I can see you now

"Ve haf vays of making ju talk!" (face it, all good villanous interrogators haf German accents)

"No? then I haf no choice.......put on PATW....the Yhonnie Vinters' copy!!!"

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I'll talk, anything but that!!!!"

[Selma in Sandy Eggo]

Naah. My sense of humor worries the security types. They suspect that I'm mocking them.

Oh, wait, Haggis spent decades as a security type. He might take that personal.

No, Haggis, I'm insufficiently task-oriented for the Marines.

Whew, that ought to fly. He'll buy that.

I'm insufficiently task-oriented for the Marines.

That's a great way to put it. I'll have to use that one.

Somebody once asked me why I didn't become a doctor with my interest in all things medical. I told 'em I was too lazy even consider taking on all that schooling.

[Selma in Sandy Eggo]

Ahhh. My request is up! Johathan Winters is telling the story of Peter and the Woof!

I needed that.

Selma...you request that again and I am going to ask that they play Bolero!

[Shapley]

All in all, I'd rather have the Peter Schickele version...

[barfle]

I personally like the Wierd Al Yankovich / Wendy Carlos version.

There's a wolf sneaking around behind my speakers. A very sneaky, lean, and hungry wolf. He's making me nervous.

OK Selma....I am going to request Bolero now

[Selma in Sandy Eggo]

Oh, Goodie! Bolero!

[Trumpetmaster]

Thank goodness I was at a meeting...

[Selma in Sandy Eggo]

P&tW is playing, and my computer's not playing it! Drat! Double drat! Fooey!

We rearranged the house, the computer's been moved again, and either the sound card has gotten jostled loose, died, or I've got speaker issues. I am not amused. I'm missing Peter! and the Wolf!

Congratulations to Selma for making the first post of 2008!
