About your host

- RubberCrutch, 14-watt illuminatus and man about town, earns his living as a simple country editor, as if toiling on a chain gang beside Larry Fine, making little sentences out of big ones. He has 30 years of professional experience in written and visual communications, including journalism, public relations, advertising, technical publishing, and photography. In connection with some of those roles he has won several unimportant awards. [Editor's note: in archived Fifty50 posts, all references to one "StuporMundi" in fact pertain to our hero, RubberCrutch, unless otherwise noted. Thank you for your attention in this matter.]
The Fifty50 mission
It is the mission of this weblog to offer you, at least half the time, an assortment of essays and pictures pertaining to current events, aesthetic studies, psychological inquiries, and everyday tomfoolery, presented in a jocular setting that is suitable for Mom, Pop, Junior, and Sis, as long as Mom and Sis do not object to literature that sometimes contains words such as "asshole" and "fuck."

ReplyDeleteBB: I'll agree that they're uglier than hell and the arrangement drags for awhile about halfway through. But the main melody swings, and listen to that guitar tremolo! Also, watch the kiddies! Anyway, I said I didn't wanna hear a peep outta ya!
ReplyDeleteAre they gonna be playing next year's halftime show?
ReplyDeleteReincarnated Soul Train!
ReplyDeleteGrats Slobnick
Anon #1: if they were next year's halftime show, they're no worse at lip-syncing, and they have more soul.
ReplyDeleteAnon #2: what you talkin about Willis? I wouldn't be surprised if we could find Richie Daley dancing around in that pack. Probably one of Royko's illegitimate children, too.
Kiddie a go go. How did this happen?
ReplyDeleteWhere did someone get that? wow.
Still love the song, arrangement and time.
Democurmudgeon: I don't know how someone laid their hands on such a high-quality copy, but here's a reprint from a 1995 fanzine by a guy who tracked down and interviewed Jack Mulqueen:

I remember the show simply being called "The Mulqueens," but then I used to play with leaded gasoline at the time.
