This is another roast dedicated to one of everyones favorite blogger Mr Beamish. Mr Beamish has the most unpredictable and fun site I visit daily. One never knows if one is going to get razor sharp satire, brilliant comedy, well written and researched material or the rare but always classic Mr Beamish school of art.
Mr Beamish single handedly set the pace for the avatar craze that swept our circle.
The classic black and white gasmask has donned a Ram's helmet, a Renoir paining, the Sphinx and center stage at Mecca. It was Mr Beamish who alerted us to the possibilities of mayhem with an avatar. My nephew's favorite avatar is Warren's axeman but the one that set the standard was Mr Beamish's gasmask.
Now Mr Beamish is well known for his sense of humor but his humor is based on reality. He told John Brown that he could post uncensored if he put the disclaimer that Brown is a moron before he posts. Anyone who reads a John Brown post is well aware of the obvious. Brown was too dimwitted to follow the advice of Mr Beamish and place the warnings above his post.
Our Jihadi troll Anum Muhktar will not visit Mr Beamish. I advised him to hire Al Gore's legal team but Mr Beamish attributes it to his cyber canine Scrap Iron. Jihadis do not like to visit places with dogs. This is all the more reason we should
love man's best friend. Some of us have an unusual love for man's best friend with red wine and wild rice.
We have learned this week that Mr Beamish is quite well versed in comic books. He even explored a possible alternative universe where an odd new Super hero Wolverbeaker may join the Avengers. Now only one of us has an actual kick A^%&%^^ action figure made in his honor.
I will now play the audio bloopers from Jihadi Toy Story with his co star Hassan Miah
Hassan: I do not understand this how does a twelve inch action figure get love letters from Mariah Carey.
Mr Beamish I didn't say where the twelve inches were. As they say in the real estate biz location, location and location.
Hassan: Do you realize that according to Beakerkin that we made $400,000 dollars running the prison cigarette,alcohol and floozie rackets
Mr Beamish : Whattttt that means when I win the Presidency I will have to take a pay cut. Damn Bolsheviks!!!!!
Now if there is any complaint about the cheap booze and roadkill at this roast Warren is handling those functions.
Lets the testemonials and jokes flow freely as we salute Mr Beamish
Beamish, it's important that gas mask is on for protection - our protection from that nasty puss of yours, that is.
ReplyDelete-insert rimshot here-
Mr. Beamish can't type. It's true. He's a hunt and pecker.
ReplyDeleteWe have to be more careful with our parody. One of AOW's students was looking for the Mr Beamish story The Man In The Iron Gas Mask.
ReplyDeletei'm sure it was beamish who inspired my avatar also.
ReplyDeleteMr Beamish single handedly set the pace for the avatar craze that swept our circle.
ReplyDeleteThe Beamish gas mask inspired all of us. And Warren was kind enough to help those of us who are technologically-challenged.
Way back when, Beak, when you introduced me to this little family, you gave quick character sketches of various who hang out here. You said, "Mr. Beamish is fun too." It took me a while to catch on to Mr. Beamish's sense of humor. The one piece which finally clued me in was the guide for handling the Koran. Can we air-drop copies of that guide all over the Middle East? The furor would make the Cartoonifada pale in comparison.
The Beamish approach to art has caused me to laugh all the way down the road as I drive to work: Renoir Duck, the Sphinx, and gas-mask-at-Mecca (with Beak standing guard). And for days, I'd just break out laughing when I reviewed those images in my mind's eye. My students howled over the Beamish art, too.
Mr. Beamish's site is one of those you-never-know-what-to-expect blogs.
I urge Mr. Beamish to publish a book of his Beamishisms. A certain bestseller! Every public library needs a copy, too.
"Now if there is any complaint about the cheap booze and roadkill at this roast Warren is handling those functions."
ReplyDeleteWhat's wrong with Richard's Wild Irish Rose?
For those who wish red wine, red dye #4 is avalable.
Bad Warren, baaaaadddd! "snort" I think I'll BYOB! I am interested in the "specials", what haute cuisine can we expect? Is it ripe or very fresh? Nanc said she's bringing salad, what artery clogger dessert should I bring? That's why I need to know the "specials", I have to be able to coordinate here! Warren, I have a cast iron dutch oven if you need it! Or should I bring bread?
ReplyDeletetmw
i'm making a nice mandrake salad for brownie with sumac berry dressing and a hint of sassafras root for flavor...
ReplyDeleteaow - CARTOONIFADA! must be added to the dictionary!
ReplyDeleteone of the very best beamish arguments between him and jacob laksin at mbc can be found here:
ReplyDeletehttp://moonbatcentral.com/wordpress/?p=1464#comments
too lengthy to post, but worth the read - beamish had laksin at "hello"!
there are some classic j.bargholz, madzionist and others in that entire post.
ReplyDeleteon being sensitive to moonbats, beamish expounded:
ReplyDelete"What a bunch of pussified dickheads."
hey, i didn't say it - it can be found right here:
http://moonbatcentral.com/wordpress/?p=1416#comments
and then i went on to have a great disagreement with mr. dipippo! now i'm going to get melancholy. later...
Sounds yummy, Nanc! I especially like the touch of ssassafras, very hoity-toity! What's Mr. Beamish's favorite roadkill? Does it come with gravey or barbeque? Is it all barbeque? what about smoked? Should I make sour cream biscuits?
ReplyDeleteTell me please, I need to get my grocery list together!
tmw
are you calling beak facetious, plucky?
ReplyDeleteplucky, i'm sure beamish would want to talk about golf, not football, when he gets here - now erase that post!
ReplyDeleteI hope there is room on the table for sticky rice.
ReplyDeleteMans best friend is always best with sticky rice.
Here scrap iron, here boy.
While I don't know Mr. Beamish that well I certainly applaud his blog efforts and incredibly insightful and ingenius posts. I'll have to add him to my blogroll this weekend! Cheers with Pabst Blue ribbon beer and a skunk burger!
ReplyDeleteJacob- There is always room for good food! Yes, Scrap Iron will be allowed to run free. My dog would have a ball with him, he loves to play, we'll have hungry, tired puppies I'm sure! It is alright to bring puppy-wuppies isn't it Nanc? Just not the same without them!
ReplyDeletetmw
only on a kabob! with sticky rice.
ReplyDeletebeak - o.t. - did you see the guy who came to donal's and gave her the rules for posting at d.u.? check it out - she could not have asked for a better endorsement.
ReplyDeletenow, if the prezidential candydates would just stroll in here and see with their own eyes THEIR competition!
Ducky
ReplyDeleteI generate the interview questions myself and it takes time to put a good interview together. My interview with Rob the Dirty Liberal is an example of a good interview. We already know his politics and learn nothing by thrashing them out. A good interview like the one with Rob focuses on special issues we do not know. I never thought about what happens if a physics experiment goes haywire.
One of the reasons I did not want or offer John Brown an interview is that he is one dimensional. Florian tried his best bust the subject stinks and would be challenging even for someone who has done several interviews.
The Yankees will be fine with Bernie and Bubba Crosby.
Where is Farmer John, Jeffbargholz
and the wry but always comedic Justin Morris.
rob's interview was exquisite, beak, simply exquisite and i'm surprised it didn't generate more traffic.
ReplyDeletebargholz commented on my new post - i'll leave a note there for him if he comes back.
Ecology
ReplyDeleteWarren also used to post on Bad Eagle as Longrange.
It is good to see you this afternoon. In the future we will have to do an interview to let my audience know more about you. In the meantime if anyone asks just mention that you are a friend of mine.
hi ecology...how do you feel about the smell of burning styrofoam?
ReplyDeletebeamish - i'm sorry, but i cannot look at this for four years - i ALMOST don't care who's running against her:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.newsmax.com/
as a matter of fact, all pages that open with that should have a disclaimer - off to wash my eyes out with soap!
Ecology- watch out for Nanc! I love her, but she is a handful! Half Irish and half, was it Olagala Sioux? It makes for lively times, besides, she's a "contrary"! Check Long Range's archives. This is our hang out have fun area, we do get serious, sometimes. But mostly we enjoy each others company.
ReplyDeletetmw
P.S. I still want to be Mr. Beamish's chief of staff, got the skillets cleaned and stacked!
tmw
tmw said, "... we do get serious, sometimes."
ReplyDeletenanc said, "i'm always serious."
Nanc,
ReplyDeleteaow - CARTOONIFADA! must be added to the dictionary!
I can't claim it as my originality as I saw it somewhere during the cartoon furor and latched onto it.
The term fits what happened. And it's still going on. Those Danish cartoonists are in hiding and the kill-them order has gone out.
Cheap booze makes me puke. I'm willing to try properly prepared roadkill, though, as long as it's not possum or crow.
ReplyDeleteRoadkill venison is just fine--the filet mignon of roadkill, IMO.
Nanc,
ReplyDeleteThe Cartoonifada continues, as shown in this May 11, 2006 article:
...In recent weeks, German investigators have noted that at least one Islamist online magazine, Ansar al Sunna, publicized a list of every newspaper that reprinted the cartoons.
The Ansar al Sunna Web site urged Muslims to exact revenge against the newspapers that then reprinted the cartoons, including five in Germany and others elsewhere in Europe, saying that the editors of those papers should suffer the fate of van Gogh.
"The way of Jihad against the enemies of Allah is still open," the magazine said....
Nanc- ...except when you're not...
ReplyDeleteAoW- I agree, venison is the best. Possom is greasy and crow doesn't have enough meat on it to justify the effort. Armadillo is greasy too and subject to leprosy. I don't know if I could eat puppy-wuppy kabobs, I am rather fond of him! I still haven't gotten any answers yet on whether I should bring bread, artery clogging dessert or sour cream biscuits. I need opinions people, I need to go shopping. If I don't get any input its cream cheese stuffed celery-guys!
tmw

good grief, tmw - drinking so early in the day? now, go have a strong cup of coffee and come back when you don't have the hiccups! what will beamish think?
ReplyDeleteBwahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWas it the cream cheese filled celery? Scared you, didn't I? Mr. Beamish would probably be jealous!
tmw
Mr Beamish did defend Bill Clinton once. When Bill Clinton said " I didn't have sex with that woman" he meant Hillary. Just look at Hillary if you don't believe me.
ReplyDeleteYou can't make us beak!! We won't look!
ReplyDeleteAOW,
ReplyDeleteas long as it's not possum or crow.
Try wombats ..they are fingerlicking delicious.
Flushed down with Ozzie plonk.
You just don't want to wake up the day after.
so when do you awaken, linkster?
ReplyDeleteMy JB interview is up for those interested! Ta-ta...
ReplyDeleteCongrats Mr. Beamish! Great site too - just checked it out!
ReplyDeleteI will say seriously, that Beamishes blog was the first blog that caught my eye.I began posting and stealing ideas right from the start. I believe he and Nanc stopped by and payed the Worm a visit, began commenting on my lame posts, and now I can't get rid of either of them. Come on guys get a life. And give me my eye back.
ReplyDeleteIt is a roast right?
Really thanks guys all of ya. I needed something else to do on my pc besides ahh....... fill in the blank.
anybody having a difficult time posting at some blogger's comment sections? flo's and donal's were out earlier.
ReplyDeleteNanc,
ReplyDeleteI normally get up at 4:30 am and run for 5-6 kilometres.
Not if I try the plonk - then Nanc my friend I wish I could die.
The headeache is just beyond description.
Hey Nanc, just read a.c.s blog. Dang my pc doesn't even see the word verification and he has no e-mail! I wanted him to know I would be praying for him and I think he's a grand human being to want to help people directly. I know when I do give, I prefer it go to someone I know who will use it wisely! Pass that on will you? Thanks!
ReplyDeletetmw
ain't it funny how time slips away - they ought to write a song about that! a few months ago - beamish was doing a blow-by-blow account of the state of the union address and i, with nothing better to do, chimed in and here it is:
ReplyDeletehttp://thecrankfiles.blogspot.com/2006/01/this-space-reserved.html#comments
pay attention to the times - very important - also warren slides in a few of his own! this is the stuff dreams are made of!
what do you mean it didn't really happen?
Nanc--my blog and donal's were out earlier? What time? I didn't have problems
ReplyDeletejust the comments flo and it wasn't very long.
ReplyDeleteNope, Jeff. I've never been in the military. Both of my older brothers are career Navy.
ReplyDeleteI always imagined boot camp would go something like this:
Drill Sergeant: "Beamish! Get up that wall now!"
Beamish: "But it's not an obstacle, sir. I can walk around it."
DS: "I said get up that wall now!!!"
Beamish: "I've got some C-4 in my pack. Can I blow a hole in the wall so everyone can get to the enemy and kill him faster, sir?"
DS: "What are you, some kinda damned General Genius?"
Beamish: "Nah. My eyesight's not good enough to fly stealth bombers."
Today's (well, yesterday's) theme song was "Workin' For The Weekend" by Loverboy. At least, that was on the radio when I drove to work Friday afternoon.
ReplyDeleteMr Beamish
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you place Sweet Home Alabama on your blog as a slap at the Duck ?
Mr Beamish can get back in the presidental race . All we need is for Al Gore to start endorsing other candidates. Every candidate endorsed by Gore seems to tank shortly after he endorses them.
We have not decided on a VP . I eliminated myself as I wanted to be President of Vice not Vice President.
The campaign might be in poor shape but we can beat Carol Mosely Braun's record of one supporter in New Hampshire.
without a doubt.
ReplyDeletei heard beamish was going to take ALL the women in his life out for an expensive meal tomorrow in honor of mother's day - so he's making them all bologna sandwiches and going to park at the gas station!
ReplyDeleteno limits to his generosity!
BEAMISH - put some clothes on!!!
ReplyDeletehttp://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060513/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/spies_eyes
Nanc
ReplyDeleteIt is bad form to go outside with no clothes and a gasmask.
well, if anybody could pull it off...
ReplyDeletefor some strange reason - that doesn't sound right!
ReplyDeleteBeamish,
ReplyDeleteyou should get Mr. Bungles cover of the loverboy jam.
I like it better. You may as well.
FBJ,
ReplyDeleteMr. Bungle cracks me up. I don't have that one though.
Nanc,
Keep this up and I'll threaten to unmask myself.
Anybody hear the Bush radio address? Afterwards, some double-dems were talking about how they would investigate and "not tolerate" wiretaps or snooping of phone records. My question is this: Isn't it the role of the gov't to protect us and snoop on suspected Al Qaeda and Islamo-fascists to prevent another disasterous attack?
ReplyDeleteIf another attack does happen, what do you think the double-dems will say then? "Mr. Bush, you didn't do enough to prevent this attack and just allowed it to culminate".
It makes you want to scream listening to these bed-wetting liberals. You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't.
beamish - do it! let's see if somebody, somewhere draws a bead on you!
ReplyDeleteAll hail, President Beamish! Beamish and his trusty sidekick, Scrap Iron, inspired my adoption of Squirt, so he has my eternal thanks. What's not to love about Beamish? He's all rapier wit and a bag of chips.
ReplyDeletePS: Beak, thanks for the heads-up on AC. Much appreciated.
Esther!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo good to see you joining the party!!!
where has esther been? 'fess up esther!
ReplyDeleteLady Esther
ReplyDeleteGlad you could join our tribute to the blogosphere's Presedential candidate of choice Mr Beamish. I had forgotten that you also have a mascott. Mr Beamish is inspirational on many levels. There is the ittle known Beamish school of geometry . Well if we lob shell in a semicircle into Iran
we creat a series of balast circles which can be bisected...
Beamishometry did not catch on because of the teachers unions.
Kyle Warren at Long Range has created several. He will be more then able to help you.
ReplyDeletewell, thank you kyle - as beak said, warren is avatar king. i suppose he observes you for a month or six and then decides what you are, like beakerambo, or rosie on watch - he created a superb avatar for fern which remains unclaimed and can be found here:
ReplyDeletehttp://longrange.blogspot.com/2006/04/double-suprise-for-nanc-p-and-freedom.html#comments
you will get the whole lowdown or highup on mine there. not to worry, warren is padding my bank account over this! and kyle, you couldn't be mean if i said you were!
Nanc,
ReplyDeleteas beak said, warren is avatar king. i suppose he observes you for a month or six and then decides what you are
I think so. Warren is a great friend. I'm blest to be able to count him as a good friend.
Beak,
It is bad form to go outside with no clothes and a gasmask.
That depends. Hehehe.
we're all blessed to have warren in our lives. the ties that bind.
ReplyDeleteand before i forget - you, aow, are also a blessing in many of our lives - i didn't mean to discount you and just got sidetracked because it's almost 9:30 and i haven't had supper! my houseplants are starting to look like fair game...
ReplyDeleteFlorian,
ReplyDeleteMany misunderstandings of leftist philosophy stem from the erroneous belief that leftism is rooted in anything related to intellectual thought.
The history of leftism tells a different story. If leftism could actually produce an ideal social framework, there would be no need for thugs with Mausers and AK-47s to "implement" it.
Nanc,
ReplyDeleteIf I unmask, I'll have to shave.
Beamish, you are certainly the best one-liner around!
ReplyDeleteHe's got my vote in '08.
ReplyDeleteshave what? your face? your head?
ReplyDeleteice?
ReplyDeletebeamish went to the psychiatrist wearing only cellophane underwear, to which the shrink said, "i can see clearly, you're nuts!"
ReplyDeletebeamish fiance: If we become engaged will you give me a ring??
ReplyDeletebeamish: Sure, what's your phone number??
beamish at the coffee shop:
ReplyDelete"Waiter : "Would you like your coffee black?"
beamish: "What other colors do you have?"
I have definitely missed you guys...I'm LOL reading these responses.
ReplyDeleteSorry I've been MIA.... wish I had a good excuse other than information overload and holding down two jobs. That and I think my bf was feeling neglected. ;)
Esther,
ReplyDeleteBelieve me, I know the feeling!
Beaker Rambo is the intelectual and creative propery of Mr Beamish and the Beak.
Its a great avatar!
Kyle, if you need help drop me a message at Nanc and my blog.
One thing great about a free market is the division of labor. I like to ponder and expound. Beak throws the book at the Commies. But Beamish is a man of few words and few bullets ... he doesn't need more to hit his target. Teddy Roosevelt is a boisterous man with a short stick compared to the one and only Beamish. Step out of the way and give him a clear shot ... Bravo (to quote Eastwood in For A Few Dollars More.)
ReplyDeleteNanc,
ReplyDeleteI dunno. My long hair's seen better days, what with the thinnin' and all, might as well spite progress and go bald while I still have a mop to shave. And I've got this really psuedo-demonic V.I. Lenin van dyke facial hair thing going on. I'll shave one or the other, but not both.
Beaker Rambo is all Beakerkin's idea. I just Windows Paintbrushed it together between insane giggling fits. I'm glad it turned out so well.
ReplyDeletebeamish - shave it! baby butt bald! fu manchu! rayban aviators! a look that never fails.
ReplyDeleteVery intimidating! After you become Pres. you'll scare the secret service too! They'll respect you for sure! Heck, even I'd come to attention and salute when you walked by!
ReplyDeletetmw
Nanc,
ReplyDeleteYou want me to look like a Volkswagen Beetle with the doors open?
sooooooo, that's what it looks like under there.....nevermind.
ReplyDeleteInteresting website with a lot of resources and detailed explanations.
