Ana Gasteyer - I’m Hip album review

Ana Gasteyer - I’m Hip is one of the lesser known hipper jazz albums of 2014. You have leisurely lounge jazz songs such as One Mint Julep and Proper Cup of Coffee. You also have the obligatory love songs that are filled with romance. However most the songs on her album are cover songs. But don’t let that prevent you from purchasing or streaming her album.


If you wanna know why Ana has got a roving eye for every cute guy passing there, then listen to the song Shopping Around. Ana has got a roving eye for every cute guy passing by while she is shopping. She just wants to try before she buys whatever she wants or needs. Ana says a girl must compare men for wear and for tear before she buys. A girl must choose her man wisely before she makes her final decision to be with that man. The man to be has no guarantee. The gist of this song explains how a girl must choose her man wisely before she makes her final decision to be with that man because that man to be has no guarantee of being loyal or truthful. That is the gist of this song.

Ana has got a roving eye for every cute guy passing by while she is out shopping. She just wants to try before she buys whatever she wants or needs. She just wants to try before she buys the bargains in Husbands ready-to-wear because a man isn't like an expensive sweater or a department store dress on the rack. If you wrap him up and take him home, and then see something better, nobody will take him back.

So Ana is shopping around. Just looking here men are concerned. A girl must compare men for wear and for tear before she buys. If she wants the best, then she just has to test all kinds of merchandise. So while she is still young, she will be testing. This is because he husband to be carries no guarantee . So if you want the best to be found, you gotta keep shopping. Leisurely shopping. Not buying. Just shopping around.

You don't buy the first pair of shoes from the clerk. You don't buy perfume until you spray it. You don't buy a clock until you're sure it will work. You don't buy a piano until you play it. A new vacuum cleaner may be a sensation. But ladies, always get a free trial demonstration.

So while Ana is still young, she will be testing. I'm sampling. Ana is taking romance in the smorgasbord way from the last organ note.  Love is all table d'hote. So if you want the best to be found. You gotta keep shopping.


Before He Cheats is a jazz cover of the popular country song Carrie Underwood - Before He Cheats. Before He Cheats is a song which explains how Ana’s man is cheating on her.

Ana’s man is cheating on her. Right now he's probably slow dancing with a bleached-blond tramp from the streets to in the sheets. And she's probably getting frisky. He's probably buying her some fruity little drink at a bar because she can't shoot whiskey. In this bar, he's probably up behind her with a pool stick showing her how to shoot a combo.

However Ana’s man don't know that Ana dug his key into the side of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive and carved her name into his leather seats. She took a Louisville slugger to both headlights. Then she slashed a hole in all 4 tires. Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.

Right now, she's probably up singing some white-trash version of Shania Twain karaoke while under the influence of being drunk. He's thinking that he's gonna get lucky. Right now, he's probably dabbing on 3 dollars worth of that bathroom Polo. Ana might've saved a little trouble for the next girl because the next time that he cheats, you know it won't be on her!


I’m Hip is a modified cover of Blossom Dearie - I’m Hip with slightly altered lyrics and some spoken word. For example, Ana added a modern twist to the song during the bridge by mentioning shopping website Etsy to keep the song relevant with today’s audience. “I tweet from my bike/I knit sweaters for tykes sold on Etsy/Collect my own eggs/From my prize heirloom hens, Jean and Betsy”

[Bridge]
I tweet from my bike
I knit sweaters for tykes sold on Etsy
Collect my own eggs
From my prize heirloom hens, Jean and Betsy

Andrew Bird’s Bowl of Fire - Oh! album review

Andrew Bird’s Bowl of Fire - Oh! The Grandeur is a mixture of bluegrass, indie rock, and swing jazz. However the album relies mostly on indie rock and swing jazz. Most of the songwriting is quite unique and very interesting. This was also Andrew Bird’s first album as bandleader of Andrew Bird’s Bowl of Fire.


(What’s Your) Angle? is about Andrew’s fixation on a bizarre woman with many interesting qualities that are unique and abnormal because she is really a rhomboid. The song uses a mixture of bluegrass, indie rock, and swing jazz.

Andrew used to think that the woman he was dating was a tomboy. Her hair like a bird's nest. Her clothes so shoddy. Then Andrew found she was a rhomboid. There is not an oblesque bone in her body. Everybody's entitled to a little existenstial rangle fangle bang and perhaps some tango.


Dora Goes to Town is a song that explains why a sole femme named Dora Munch is coming to town. She's on a produce parade because she is grocery shopping.

Dora Munch has got a ham in her handbag and a pig in her purse. She's got a two ply in a no cry baby bugger. She's got a burlap sack, She's on a produce parade. During this produce parade, she is gonna get some cherry cigars and some lemonade. No need to put your ear to the ground. Dora Munch is coming to town.

Dora puts eggs in her orange juice and coffee in her tea Also she puts olives in her jelly. Dora says that's the way it's gonna be. Ashes and mashes. Dust and mustard. Creamed spinach sandwich and she cuts the crusts off. Don't let it show that you wanted some. Dora Munch is coming to town.

Harry Connick, Jr. - Blue Light, Red Light album review

Harry Connick, Jr. - Blue Light, Red Light is a unique jazz album with live and loud big band production over pop influences. You can tell this album was influenced by the sounds of swing revival. This jazz album is unique because due to not just solely relying on love songs or the theme of romance. You have songs that are about the working class struggle and slice of ordinary life.


She Belongs to Me is about Harry looking for someone to belong to and cling on to. More specifically, Harry is looking for a girl to cling on to and confide in.
 
Harry met this girl. But he never thought she would belong to him. He just wanted someone he could sing to. Who'd listen to every song. Harry just wanted someone he could cling to. Cling to all night long.

So Harry kissed her. And when he felt her lips, he skipped a heartbeat because he was so in love with this girl. How many times does your heart meet the most beautiful girl in the world? So he thought and thought about her. Harry just couldn't stop thinking about her. And he died when she called him up and said. She couldn't stop thinking about him. Now guys are calling her wanting to be boyfriends. But they're going to have to answer to Harry Connick, Jr. because he is going to tell all those boyfriends that she belongs to him.


The Last Payday is about an old-time Bourbon Street barker in New Orleans, Lousiana who always took advantage of strangers by swindling them out of their money. The messages of this song are “You're always lucky until you get caught.”, “Trouble will find you.”, and “Luck won't help when they close the book.”

The song uses a bit of humor. For example, these lyrics show the humor in Danny trying to make a five-grand grab with only for him to forget the bag of money. “Danny was the shallow pocket changer/Who always took advantage of strangers/Tried to make a five-grand grab/With a split second getaway/But he forgot that a bag of money”

Danny was the shallow pocket changer
Who always took advantage of strangers
Tried to make a five-grand grab
With a split second getaway
But he forgot that a bag of money

Danny was an old-time Bourbon Street barker in New Orleans, Louisiana who wanted the same as Charlie Parker. And always cued-up a ball thinking he was one rack away. But even when you run the table, the check still seems small when it's your last payday.

Danny was the shallow pocket changer who always took advantage of strangers. He tried to make a five-grand grab ($5,000 dollars) with a split second getaway. But he forgot that a bag of money. Ain't worth much on a slab when it's your last payday. That line about luck just can't be bought. You're always lucky until you get caught. Trouble will find you. There is no need to look. And luck won't help when they close the book.


Blue Light, Red Light is about Harry dealing with the working class struggle.  Harry lives in a tiny closet in a lukewarm cold water flat with room for a couple of cinders, a mouse, a hole, and a trap. He doesn't worry about the flights or count the stairs because he knows someone's there. He took a high paying sweeping-up job dusting after somebody else Seeing that there's clean on the windows. Convincing the snow to melt. He doesn't worry about the ride or the subway fare.

With Imagination (I’ll Get There) is one of his inspirational motivational songs. Harry sings about how he will get to where he wants to go with his imagination. Harry has traveled many miles and he hasn't found a home. He’ll travel another mile until he finally find his own home. Harry will get there with imagination. Harry started with a dream but came to a decision. But now he has a mission. He has a goal to see beyond his vision with imagination. He’s got to be strong to climb the next hill. Harry has got to be strong. His fate to fulfill.

Harry Connick, Jr. - Smokey Mary album review

Harry Connick, Jr. - Smokey Mary is a Louisiana influenced jazz album with live and loud big band production over pop influences. You can tell this album was influenced by the sounds of swing revival, funk, dance, and New Orleans jazz. This jazz album is unique because due to not just solely relying on love songs or the theme of romance. You have your influences of funk and dance on the album with the horns, keyboards, and drums.


City Beneath the Sea is Harry’s dedication to the city of New Orleans and its fine culture. There are several references to Mardia Gras culture used throughout the song.

Harry wants to be taken to the city beneath the sea. That city is New Orleans, Louisiana. The Mississippi River will wrap around him and the music will let him be. You can find Harry on the neutral ground on the corner of Fleur De Lis. Won't somebody take Harry Connick, Jr. to the city beneath the sea?

Take him where the night outshines the day. You can hear the tap of soda caps and smell the Étouffée. You can fais do do with Jacamo or fi na ne until 3 AM. Take him the Meters and the Mardi Gras. They bet you where you got your shoes and they eat their oysters raw. Pork Chops dances all night long. But he won't dance for free.


Nola Girl is an upbeat swing song which explains how a girl from New Orleans, Louisiana swept Harry off his feet and took his soul.

Harry is going towards the causeway south of LA 59. He is headed to the easy to see that girl of his. She's a bit peculiar and sings a different tune. This girl took Harry’s soul and then she stole the crescent from the moon. He tried to leave her but she cannot let go. She is laying lies and then turns them true. She won't let you see much but you'll see enough. You don't dare forget to care for the girl that care forgot.

It's like they crossed up Madonna with the young Marie Laveau. Harry’s girlfriend is a cross of Madonna and Marie Laveau. She'll do anything you want besides turning old. Sometimes in the morning right before the sun, she had satisfied you. But she's far from done. She put on summer perfume. She'll dress and both your girl. You wouldn't know she's someone else's girl.


Angola (At the Farm) is a song which describes daily life at the Angola Prison Farm (Louisiana State Penitentiary) in Louisiana.

The guards got Harry Connick, Jr. on watch hall duty at the Angola Prison Farm. Then the boys got mad at 74. They told him that it might be good for Charlie Fraser. They cut the wings of the heels of the sand that their work was done. At the farm Angola you work on sunshine. At the farm Angola you work on frame. And if you don't like it, you can take it up with Wally King. The Angola Prison Farm is on the Mississippi River. The shortest journey the life would enjoy at the sun.

Kate Earl - Fate Is the Hunter album review

Kate Earl - Fate Is the Hunter is a crossover album of pop and electro swing with love songs such as Someone to Love, Silence, and Cry Sometimes. There also adventure themed songs such as Come This Far and Officer. The album is a mix of pop and jazz. Her music is organic and poignant. This is rare music that not considered superficial.


Come This Far is one of the adventure themed songs on the album. The song explained how far along Kate had come while visiting and exploring the state of Alaska with her friends.

Kan and company ate their pies at Birchwood Saloon in Chugiak, Alaska. She would sing and pass the plate. They all knew Kate by her face and her father's name. (Birchwood Saloon is located off the only road that leaves the state of Alaska.)

Kate comes across upon a pale Alphonse Mucha postcard. This pale Alphonse Mucha postcard rings back orange carpet they call roaches butterflies. That heavy letter underneath her door is a stark reminder of what she had before. Kate tore the heavy letter in the dresser drawer open like a candy bar. It's hard to believe Kate has come this far.

A bright red hot rod hardtop goes off to town for Moose's Tooth Drew leaned in and said it. But his heart wouldn't let it. Kate and company are nervous tearing through the sky counting pools and freeways. Grieving every inch she gains. Kate will sing and pass the plate. They will know Kate by her face and her father's name. It's hard to believe she has come this far.

These lyrics foreshadow the future of what is to come. “Heavy letter headed for your shore/A premonition of what's in store/It's hard to believe we've come this far”

The lyrics to the chorus show how far Kate has progressed on her journey visiting and exploring the state of Alaska with her friends.

[Chorus]
Heavy letter underneath my door
A stark reminder what I had before
It's hard to believe I've come this far
Heavy letter in the dresser drawer
Tore it open like a candy bar
It's hard to believe I've come this far


Officer is another one of the adventure themed songs on the album. The song is about Kate’s encounter with a police officer while driving on driving on deathly icy roads when the temperature is forty below.

The temperature is forty below (that’s -40° F degrees Fahrenheit). Kate is driving on deathly icy roads. Her back seat is full of clothes. She has run out of gas. So she wakes a stranger up to fill her tank in their pajamas. However Kate has only got $10 dollars. It's been a long road and she feels awful. Kate wants to go home.

There is company. Kate realizes she has walked into the wrong room. So she goes to the bathroom and washes her hands in sulfur water. A twitterpated buzz is coming off of a woman. Her admiration forces Kate to leave her. The woman asks Kate to stay but she has outgrown her. So Kate gets back in her car and she gets pulled over by a police officer. Kate tells the officer, “I'm not drunk, I wanna go home, officer.”

Luckily the officer just gives her a warning, Then she checks her wipers and defog. She notices her mind is on the floor but she must move onward. So she picks a song on the radio and sings along while lofty dreams dance on and on over a place she’ll live forever.


Anything is about knowing what it means to be loved. When you never take that chance, then there's nothing worth dying or even living for. But everybody knows the saying that goes "All you need is love, all you need is love". But you've got to be willing to give anything. You can't escape your destiny. What is meant to be will be.

Lady Blackbird - Black Acid Soul album review

Lady Blackbird - Black Acid Soul is a jazz album which uses a combination of jazz and soul thus a jazz-soul fusion can be heard. Black Acid Soul is one of the lesser known jazz albums of 2021 with an indie jazz-soul sound. Lady Blackbird’s voice is reminiscent of Hardin Armstrong, Dinah Washington, Adele, and Lxandra.


Beware the Stranger is Lady Blackbird’s cautionary tale which tells people to be aware of this female stranger who has distinguishing features. Especially you tall, dark, and handsome men.

This female stranger…  She's wanted dead or alive. This female stranger has distinguishing features. Her distinguishing features are her cold and shifty eyes.

She'll lead you on with her words so soft and sweet She'll rob you of your pride. And then sweep you off your feet by throwing you under the bus. She'll wine and dine you but in the end you're the one to have to pay. And you'll never see her when she makes her get away. So beware of this female stranger lurking in your town. Especially you tall, dark, and handsome men. Your heart will break down.

She's sweet and loving. She's a tricky character who will steal your breath away. Like an actor in a play. Embezzlement and murder are just a few crimes she’ll commit. She'll steal your heart away. Surely steal the love you knew.


Nobody’s Sweetheart explains why Lady Blackbird is no one’s sweetheart anymore.

Lady Blackbird is no one’s sweetheart anymore because she was in a broken relationship. Her love was broken by her ex-lover. And now he never calls her. She feels ripped apart like a paper doll. Their love is ripped apart like a paper doll. Lady Blackbird is searching for some truth in a darkened room since it's just disappeared without him near. Lights at the party dim and then fade. Lady Blackbird is left here all alone trying to remember what it was like before she was a sweetheart no more. What a strange sad affair to live without a care.

RETONIC - Prince Frederick album review

Their style of rap is reminiscent of Mac Miller. Most of their songs are freestyle rap. RETONIC - Prince Frederick is a pretty good rap album for 2022.

Koop - Koop Islands album review

Stockholm-based electronic music duo Koop combined their trademark sound behind a soundscape of 1930s style swing jazz and modern electronic music on their album Koop Islands. The album is a beautiful acid jazz album. Most of the songs are downtempo acid jazz songs. However there are uptempo songs such as Forces....Darling, Come to Me, and Koop Island Blues which have a humongous amount of swing to them.

5/5*****!!

Mr.B The Gentleman Rhymer - I Say! album review

Mr.B The Gentleman Rhymer - I Say! is a fine posh and exquisite example of Chap Hop. You have refined and sophisticated lyrics along with advanced topics. The album uses electro swing elements over rap lyrics. His songwriting is quite lengthy and extensive. Songs such as Hail the Chap and You Just Can’t have some exquisite lengthy songwriting skills. Fans of educational rap will certainly enjoy this album. Conservatives that have problems with millennials can relate to this album since it has songs such as Hail the Chap and You Just Can’t.


Hail the Chap is a fine posh and exquisite example of Chap Hop You have refined and sophisticated lyrics along with advanced topics. Hail the Chap is backed by a vintage jazz sample and horn under a ukulele with electro swing elements over rap lyrics.

Mr.B vented about his disgust about millennials and how they’ve ruined society on Hail the Chap. When the millennial generation’s problems and feelings of unhappiness were approaching from the 21st century, Mr.B’s problems mostly consisting of things that he would consider improper such as hoes and aggressive rude brash men, He assumed a permanent fix to these problems by clashing them with his gentlemanly style. Before these millennials made boredom a normal state of being Mr.B and a few of his colleges fostered a movement of change to stop this from becoming the norm. As was the case in his song Modern Chaps.

The good old days of ancient Greece’s long standing art, history, and culture that has shaped much of Western society has been weakened and ruined by arrogant unambitious fools.

Although Mr.B’s whole schtick is his affectation for the Victorian era, the power-dynamic of a strictly passive male gaze is simply unacceptable in contemporary social morals. Not surprising considering the Victorian era was an era known for its emotional and sexual restraint. Conservatism was at an all time high during the Victorian era. Therefore under the contemporary rules of etiquette to be a “Chap”, it is necessary to acknowledge those you pass on the street with a doff of a hat (top your hat) and perhaps conversation. They are people, after all.

At the approach of the millennial malaise, there were blights with a need of a perennial braze. The age of the Corinthian, the plunderer, and the dandy had given way to that of the prig and the bore. Just before boredom became a modus operandi. Society is floundering in squalid desperation. And what's wanted to save it was a savvy publication.

Now Mr.B has often wondered how best to dress for wrestling. Between ties and cravats, which was the best thing? Were there really 73 ways to doff one's hat? There were!  You can stay in standard evolution. Mr.B and a few of his colleges fostered a movement of change to stop boredom from becoming the norm. Or come and join Mr.B and his colleges in their dandy revolution. Give your pipe a tap. Park your rattle trap. Raise your hat or cap. As we say, all hail The Chap!

Now we all know rules are there to be broken. But never have truer words been spoken than in the code hereafter. They’ve upped they standards. So up yours too! It's a call to charms. A design for living within a world so unforgiving where sloth and banality are the standard brew. Hear and read the 10 rules of The Chap manifesto.

    1.    Thou shalt always wear tweed is the only fabric you shall ever need.
    2.    Thou shalt never not smoke with pipes made from briar or booze aged in oak.
    3.    Always be courteous to the ladies.
    4.    Never ever wear denim pantaloons.
    5.    Thou shalt always doff one's hat if you're flaneur or simply like to stop and chat.
    6.    Never fasten the lower button of one's weskit.
    7.    Don't give the Westwoods a monopoly.
    8.    Never wear plimsolls if not doing sport unless you're a Chap Hop superstar sort.
    9.    Always worship the trouser press.
    10.    Always cultivate interesting facial hair. But on the top. Not under there. Mustaches and well-groomed beards are always appreciated, but neckbeards are a social no-no.


You Just Can’t explained the things you can’t do certain things in today’s modern society and on social media network websites like Facebook anymore. The song showcase how societal standards have changed during the digital age of information.  

As we slide down the razor blade of life these days, in many ways the malaise of modern life betrays the many wonders that abound and in equal ways confound. There's so much a chap can do that needn't cost a pound. One can natter to a flapper down under. As a matter of course until one is hoarse. Or call any resource. One can fly off to the colonies for gentlemanly bonhomie in cheerful friendliness.

But if the colonials bother Mr.B, he can order up a bombing spree and theatrical productions at the mere push of a button. Or simply move your house if you don't want to live in Sutton.
These days one can do just what one pleases such as buy exotic cheeses and catch exotic diseases.
They can buy enough pornography on tap to fairly kill a chap.

But do take heed because it all could be a trap. Mr.B can tell by the gormless grin on your face that you think the modern world is a wonderful. However “most of us” know that is not all true thanks to global warming, political correctness, war, and racism.

But you just can't rape a goat these days it'll end up on your Facebook page thanks to advances in technology. If the public notices what you did to that goat, you'll have the authorities at your throat. You'll be in trouble in so many ways. You just can't confuse a billy or a nanny for a willy or a fanny because you'll have the local papers in a rage.

These days dirty little secrets never last now that privacy is a thing of the past. The merest misdemeanour can be seen upon a screen here people know what you have done and they know where you have been. A fart or a log will be part of a blog. Before your hands are washed and you emerge from the fog the cogs of the machine force one to keep it clean. Watch your step when you strap on the naughty trampoline. Freedom of speech is not freedom of expression. When the line's been breached you should learn a lesson. When the farmer come with his big shotgun, then run. Now that privacy's gone you'd better keep your schlong inside the members of the human race.

These lyrics explained how much of a nanny state the United Kingdom has become and how privacy is now a thing of the past in most ways. These lyrics also explain to people that freedom of speech is not freedom of expression and that freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences.

These days dirty little secrets never last
Now that privacy is a thing of the past
The merest misdemeanour can be seen upon a screen
Where people know what you have done
And they know where you have been
A fart or a log will be part of a blog
Before your hands are washed and you emerge from the fog
The cogs of the machine force one to keep it clean
(Watch your step when you strap on the naughty trampoline)
Freedom of speech is not freedom of expression
When the line's been breached you should learn a lesson
When the farmer come with his big shotgun then run
Now that privacy's gone you'd better keep your schlong
Inside the members of the human race


The Impossible Dream explained Mr.B’s impossible dream to make hip hop (more specifically Chap Hop) gentlemanly. The song uses an edge of intellectualism and elegance over electro swing, hip hop, Chap Hop, and rap.

Mr.B’s dream is to dream the impossible dream. Mr.B’s impossible dream is to make hip-hop gentlemanly. Part of his dream is to make hip hop rhyme words which people can follow but never pander to the scum. To write the unwritable song. To rhyme words ten (10) syllables long. To make party a noun and have those who use it as a verb simply run out of town.

And he knows it can't surely be true. Your sartorial best is a pair of fat jeans, bag and chain. New Nikes and a vest. I mean a vest on the outside. Honestly. And the world will be better for this without such deportment remiss. So he’ll strive with his last ounce of courage to dream the impossible dream to make hip-hop gentlemanly.


Guy Debord is the philosophical song on the album which discusses philosophy. Mr.B was inspired by the philosophy of Guy Debord when he wrote this song. Take a train now with Mr.B to the land of 20th century philosophers. Bon, alors Maintenant.

The song begins with a conversation between Guy Debord and Mr.B talking about discussing names. There are a bunch of ambiguous names puns thrown throughout their conversation. When Guy Debord and Mr.B were bored He said to Mr.B, "It's not Guy, it's Guy" "It's Guy not Guy", said Mr.B. "That's right", said Guy Debord who was not Guy but Guy. "I see", said Mr.B to Guy not Guy.

"I see not why you mystify to keep your numbers low not highs. No way to revolutionise and change everyday life."
Mr.B asked his friend called Guy not Guy. "To make you see I have no time. Talk to my friend Raoul Vaneigem. You get it wrong quite every time.", said Mr.B, said to Guy.  "Do try to tell me why you fry. My mind with jargon. It’s so French." "It's Guy." Guy said all rather tense. "Sod you", Mr.B said and thence went off to find a serving wench.

A G&T was off to Mr.B while guys would spout philosophies to other guys. Their theories are absurdities. Escape these dull adversaries are such a bore although they're drunk. I'm amazed that they invented punk.

When Guy Debord and Mr.B were bored, Guy said to Mr.B, "It's not Guy, but Guy. And anyway, boredom's never ever revolutionary." They have a world of pleasure to win and nothing to lose but boredom. Ne travaillez, ne travaillez, ne travaillez, jamais!


Hermitage Shanks is a horn driven jazz rap song with a posh touch of Chap Hop. The song describes how Mr.B is a hermit who needs a place to be alone. Hermitage Shanks is a combination of Armitage Shanks. This is toilet humour in an intellectual manner from a British gentleman.

Mr.B is the chappy who's seen the bappies of a thousand lappy lasses clad in all the castle. But probably not the hassle. His kazound's up in the wind of a world of pure delight. Bright the world of sin is. Like the finish on some nylon tights. Styled on times gone past with just a hint of 21st century arse (ass). Mr.B is the chap who spent a whole damn summer on gin. He got the clap and lamented.

He wants to run to the place where he find space, solace, comfort and grace. Far from the trappings of the rodentile race. If the lure of modern life has become too much, he longs for his porcelain crutch and so. Mr.B will brace himself for whatever may occur. It's the sit-down of champions. I'm sure you'll concur. He will retire to Hermitage Shanks for a rest and a read. Hermitage Shanks is his piece of the rock.  Down with the britches. Out with the old. He clasps the chain with a couple of yanks and give thanks to Hermitage Shanks. He can retire to this room and resume the job at hand. Then he can rejoin his merry band. All he needs is just 10 minutes to recover from the shock and ballyhoo.

5/5*****!
