Sparkle does "the wave" in tribute to the Chupacabra Guide. Gets confused and hyperventilates, arms windmilling. Slumps to floor. Randolph Mantooth resuscitates (a lifelong dream).

"'Twas the Night Before We Ate All the Farm Animals"

HA! Brilliant!

Also:

- "One Magic Chupacabra"
- "It's a Wonderful Chupacabra"
- "A Wish for Chupacabras That Work"

(Okay, that last one is a little obscure...but it's one of my favourites. Bloom County!)

Sparkle: You do realize you're dating yourself with a Randolph Mantooth reference, don't you? And I'm dating myself by understanding it.


Cake: I got that last one! Yea! Opus! We have the book--was there an animated special too?

Sparkle:

Don't forget Oscillate Wildly. It was also a huge Smiths single.

Yup! And you really have to see it, it's wonderful! Easily one of my favourite Christmas specials.

If your local shops don't have it or can't get it, Amazon has it:

Brava, Lois! Brava! Excellently done, and truly sick! Two bloody stumps up!

I think pretty much everyone with the exception of Jayne will get the Randolph Mantooth reference.

How does one translate a cheesy '70s emergency rescue unit show across the pond?

Lamont! Where've you been hiding?!

p.s.
Bacon Ace: SHE LEFT ME FOR AN AAAAALBAAATROSS!

(I deny that I went around the house last night yelling that at random intervals for no reason...that's right, I deny it...::cough::)

Lois & Redbeard: I SO knew I was dating myself with my Randolph Mantooth reference!!! It's true! I'm an Ancient Mariner! Wait--git away from me you doggone vulture...I'm not done livin'! (I did get carded recently, and I almost paid the dude who did it to card me again. Then he stood there yelling out my age to various and sundry. Good times.)

Cake and Baconia: I'll have to check out this special. Sounds good!

Lamont: Ringers lactate!
