Yeti's been taking a beating around here lately, but I found this thread title solid.

I particularly liked the part where he didn't know how to spell Wizardry.

I would have gone with "pushing up FTD daises", but that's just me.

I would have said something really stupid like 'Guess He Won't Be Stopping By Ron Burgundy's House On Occasion Anymore' because that's really my only Merlin Olsen experience. 

On the other hand, it would have pissed off Kermit, so there's that.

You never read Instant Replay? Sure it was written by a Packer, but it's a good read. He talked in length about Olsen and Alex Karras.
