About the time Buckeroo Bonzai was driving his car through rocks, I
thought that "bucko" might just become the new "bird" [Bird, bird,
bird is the word -- bet JL doesn't know that reference]. But alas,
only myself and a couple of other guys still call each other Bucko.
In Mike's absence, I'll respond. Even an expatriate Canadian
vegetarian teetotaler knows about Buckaroo Banzai and his adventures
across the 8th dimension!
From Wikipedia: "Buckaroo Banzai is the lead character, played by
Peter Weller, of the eponymous 1984 cult film, The Adventures of
Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. A renaissance man, the
character is a top neurosurgeon, particle physicist, race car driver,
rock star and comic book hero, and probably the last hope of the human
race. In the film, his latest experiments open the door to the 8th
dimension and unwittingly start an interplanetary battle for the world."
Mike's YouTube link takes you to The Trashmen's "Surfin' Bird" - I
need add nothing there.

Schafer's 'ear cleaning' exercises, in
Kiel, Germany
