Wow, that's a big deal....again congratulations! pretty sure I'd have to brush up to pass that test..lol.Originally Posted by Wise Old Owl
They added questions like name two senators or name someone from the house of representatives in your state. There are more questions about history and slavery, so quite a bit of memorization of names,dates, etc. Who is the current chief justice? Before a high school American History Class was all that was needed.
Dogs are excellent judges of character, this fact goes a long way toward explaining why some people don't like being around them.

Left turn, Clyde....please jog my old memory, who are Clyde and Francis? I remember Francis the talking mule.Well some people just aren't funny Clyde.
Yea I don't get the reference at all!

Me neither but since he called me a name I called him one back. lol

It's from the movie Stripes! Francis was the guy that kept threatening to kill everyone.

I thought it was "right turn Clyde"?
Geez, I feel sort of bad that anyone would view me in that light. Can't remember being threatening to anyone.

They called him Psycho.
You need to watch the movie. It's funny. Bill Murray and John Candy.Geez, I feel sort of bad that anyone would view me in that light. Can't remember being threatening to anyone.

OK, we got two potentials for Francis, the talking horse and psycho guy from Stripes. So who is Clyde?
All I can think of is Bonnie's partner in crime, youth baseball phenom from the 70s David Clyde, the guy who worked with J. Edgar Hoover, the guy who played electric bass, and Clint Eastwood's orangutan.
The road to glory cannot be followed with much baggage.

" Clyde plays electric bass
Plays it with finesse and grace"

Don't forget Harold Ramis and Warren Oates. One of my favorite parts is at the beginning when his girlfriend is trying to throw away his old records (or something like that), and Bill Murray goes off on a rant about Ike and Tina are going to make a comeback. Well sure enough a few years later Tina Turner (without Ike) becomes like the hottest singer around. You got to love it when a movie unknowingly predicts the future.

So perhaps Waylon was singing about Clint Eastwood's friend (pet). Isn't it great how we are able to connect all the dots here in the cafe.

Like I said, no reference to anybody, R called me Francis and Clyde was the first name to pop into my mind. Of course if he thinks he resembles the orangutan I will not argue with him.

.........Francis........ Talking Mule......................

Aficion, thanks for keeping me straight. Don't want to mix up the military mule with the TV star horse.

J. J. Cale did the song too, where I heard it. Not sure who wrote it.
