Thread Name: Ken Burns Jazz? Really that stupid?
Subject: RE: BS: Ken Burns? Really that stupid?
Generally agreed Leej........Some very decent info on Goodman (nothing new) and I liked hearing Artie Shaw, just not enough of him. But I decided that the fellas were right and watched Austin Powers instead........a lot more high quality programming. But like I asked on the other thread........

What do you all think about the opening scene of the "Spy Who Shagged Me" when Austin discovers he has married a FEMBOT??? I liked the part where the machine guns popped out of her tits, but I really question whether there was any significant background development to this "Boob-Shooter." The Irish have employed Boob-Shooters for many years and indeed the tradition is strong. No mention was made or homage paid to the early Irish Boob-Shooters such as "Big Mo"....one Maureen Gilhooly, who mounted twin Tommy guns in her huge breasts back in '38. But in an obvious ploy for ratings, the FEMBOT has a decidedly southern European look about her and not Irish at all. I think Myers is trying to breastwash us here.

.........gimmee peace.........................
