Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for September 28, 2020

Better yet: “Entry of the Gladiators” by Julius Fucik. Actually composed as serious march music, but…

Beaten by the Queen of Hearts every time…

I do love that song, though.

Isn’t that the Theme Music for the R U Sirius?

Well, it’s not a bad song.

Be happy Brewster, at least you still have your spleen.

… he lost though?

I love the play from which this is taken: from wikipedia…“Send In the Clowns” is a song written by Stephen Sondheim for the 1973 musical A Little Night Music, an adaptation of Ingmar Bergman’s 1955 film Smiles of a Summer Night. It is a ballad from Act Two, in which the character Desirée reflects on the ironies and disappointments of her life.

Alexa is getting cheeky!

Related to Herman’s phone on “Diamond Lil”?

Why AI is a bad idea… Of course a non-thinking computer is only as good as its programming, which is only as good as the programmer. So, here we have AI from an algorithm by a sadist.

Don’t bother, they’re here.

Hazzah! The perfect combination of two of my favourite things: Sondheim and Brewster Rockit.

I LOVE LOVE that song. Somehow when you’re down, a melancholy song lifts the spirits. At least it does for me! Go figure. :)

Followed by Gilbert O’Sullivan’s “Alone Again (Naturally)”

Now that is some Sirius AI.

Spoilers, but Rocky lost the fight in that movie. So, the theme song is in fact for losers.

Veritas

Isn’t it rich? Aren’t they a pair?

Waggy-tailed wiggly worms, covered with hair;

Send in the hounds.

Isn’t it strange? What an odd mix!

One who keeps tearing around, one chewing sticks;

But where are the hounds? Send in the hounds!“

If we would stop opening doors,

They wouldn’t be jumping all over my bed and yours;

But it’s so pleasant to feel their paws on my chest;<When they’re outside, I cannot rest.”

Hear those loud barks? My fault, I fear;

I thought that they’d want to go out, sorry, my dear;

So send in the hounds -

Those loud little hounds -

You did it! They’re here. – for Hildy and Lindy, our dachshund starter pack, 1993

Even Alexis knows that Brewster is no longer the Smart, Charismatic Hero he was before the aliens took out his brain and let their children play with it before they put it back in.

I like that tune. Brewster should be more appreciative.
