I just came across the following video this morning.

Call it BlassRap. The sound of Munich (Blassmusik) played by a small blasskapelle. I love the mashup!

Wail...I listened to the whole dang thang and all I can say is I much prefer it to the Murcan (or is that Merkin?) kind of self cheering.

Jeeze yourolpal, I thought I was the only one on earth world who knew what a merkin was. I will not tell you how I learned this well kept secret, will you tell me?

Sure...my favorite movie of all time is "Dr. Strangelove".

The President of the U.S., played by Peter Sellers, is named Merkin Mufley. As a lad, I had to know what, if anything, that meant. Glad to see that these days merkins, or anything like them are eschewed.

"Fluoridation, Manfred. Fluoridation is our salvation and the key!"
 
"Oh, honey. You know that you're not supposed to call here when I'm busy with all the other generals!"
 
"You know, how we have always talked, yes dimitry, yes, about ... how something could go wrong with the bomb! .... Dimitry, let me finish .... "
 
"YEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
 
One of the best movies ever made ... EVER! And Peter Sellers should have won the Oscar, but unfortunately he didn't which was a good thing for us THE GOONS' fans, but Peter was a headache according to some stories for the next 2 years before the show ended. He did show up in 1964 for the last show special with M. Parkinson!
 
Proud owner of 124 shows (all the CD's) and the BBS is still messed up and missing at least a handful of shows that some of their Aussie series played.

Love ya mosh, but your first two quotes are completely inaccurate.

General Ripper is ANTI fluoridation...the Group Captain's name is Mandrake...and General Turgidson does not say that when called by his secretary in the war room.

You're close on President Mufley's line though and I'll let your attempt at SlimPickens "bomb riding" yell pass.

Ripper wouldn't want anything that could contaminate his precious bodily fluids.
