Isn't that "a lovely bunch of coconuts?"
What site is this again?
Ya'll a great bunch of carrots.
Now git back to the Trades forum where you belong!
Im at a bit of a loss.... why cant the tomato dance???
"peas" no more. I have a belly ache from laughing so much!
I try to teach the tiny tots to say please and they say peas, so I say peas and carrots? and they all giggle.
My ABB reference here is, Nathan who is 4, associates "Good Clean Fun" the ABB song with "Good Clean Fun" the Barney movie. If he hears the song, he has to see the movie.
Skip, where's your hall pass? 🙂
I thought the Swiss had taken you hostage for audio purposes...to remaster their classic Yodelling version of Mt Jam 🙂
Cheers

Good grief, I see some of the wayward children of the Trade Forum Thread have gotten lost and are posting on the GB now. They'll probably figure out where they are in a minute or 2.
Merry Christmas to all you folks
Skipper
tears in my eyes
"el joro"
In Gregg's words

See, got my ABB reference in there.
Many thanks Jim, and for everyone else, perdonale, y yo, por que no seramos tontos 🙂

Ok, Jim
I was looking for the VT versions of Whipping Post (sung in Polish), Dreams (in Arabic), and the Untitled Instrumental (sung in Latin)....which of the VT releases might have those ABB covers? 🙂
Meanwhile back at the farm.....
Carlos "I got DIMPLES" Rivera
Your funny Jim. Just one more thing here.....
Have we got a show for you!
Pam, Carlos and Jim singlehandedly wipe out years of great work by Lana and Rowland with discussions of totally non-ABB related vegetable cartoon characters!
Folks are clicking away madly, heading for the Lynyrd Skynryd site....
Jim
hmmmm, well I only heard it in my car, so know nothing about the dancing
but, it featured a pleasant sounding voice translating into English, and the Spanish "singer" was getting increasingly frustrated at the inaccurate translation----I will have to check out the cucumber dance
Cheers
CRR
Hey Carlos - I think you're asking about "The Dance of the Cucumber"?
The one where Larry is dancing around Bob (and singing in Spanish) while Bob translates into English ("poor little tomato...")
OK, can someone tell me what the name of the audio skit by the VT, the Cucaracha one, with the singer in Spanish, and the translator in English.
Cheers
Carlos "I don't consume enough veggies" Rivera
The ABB of cartoons! I didn't see Jonah but Abi did. She went with her babysitter when I was at a DTB show.
Oh yes! Veggie Tales rule! They're the ABB of the cartoon world! (hahhehe...)
Did you go see the movie "Jonah"?
Jim, you like that cartoon also? We love Bob (the tomato) here.
Jim, 5x5 🙂
OldABBFan--Yes...this guaranteed eternal sanctuary man will get a pm off to you 🙂
Carlos "We will rock you rock you little snake" Rivera 😉
I beg to differ, Carlos (and this has nothing to do with the ABB, so sorry!)
Compassion is an awareness of the suffering of another coupled with the wish to relieve it.
Mercy is compassionate treatment, especially of those under one's power (e.g., clemency or alleviation of distress, or relief)
So...compassion can be viewed as the motivational impluse behind the act of mercy.
Plus, I heard the phrase I use for a signature from a cucumber (Larry) - and I never argue with cucumbers!
Hey Carlos ----- I suspect your "guardian eyes so blue" line comes from a Band whose lead singer at the time had a bit of a reverse mohawk.
He also sang " I hear the Directors of Genetic Control have been buying the properties that have been recently been sold,,,, taking risks oh so bold.... they said how the people will be shorter in height, they can fit twice as many in the same building site"......
Nice prediction of things to come....
