All Your Anka Are Belong To UsA new reader wants me to explain the Paul Anka thing. Well, it's sort of like walking into Return of the King when Frodo's got Gollum chewing off his fingers and asking for a brief recap of the whole LOTR trilogy. But, quickly: Listen to this first, a secretly-recorded audio of Paul Anka reaming out his band. Hysterical. Not work safe. Then check out the other entries in the sidebar under "The (Almost) Complete Paul Anka Integrity Kick." Make sure you do not miss AllahPundit's Paul Anka Record Collection or Integrity SAT's: The Entrance Test For Paul Anka's Band. Link Fixed! Allah was kind enough to let me host his record collection photoshops on my site. So I changed the link to point to my own site. It should work now. And Oh Yeah... In a bit of blogging kismet, a guy turned up one day who was actually a lighting-guy for Paul Anka, and gave me Vinny Falcone's business card and all sorts of cool stuff. He comments here now as Man of Substance, a thoroughly brilliant monicker that I, of course, thought up. posted by Ace at 09:00 PM
CommentsHey! New visitors! On my first visit here, I learned that the guys get shirts. And than played the hell out of that clip. Last May, after staying up all night with extracurriculars, packing my stuff, keeping a much younger girlfriend calm as we moved into the first place that was "ours", and then moving on an absolutely gorgeous Hudson Valley day, finishing with beers and pizza (a good 36 hours, without Vinnie Falcone riding my ass), the lovely and alluring K. turns to me and says: "When I move, I slice like a fucking hammer." I haven't been disappointed since. Posted by: danger invites rescue on April 19, 2005 09:15 PM
Unfortunately the referenced file "000485.html" is no longer available at allahpundit.com... nor, in fact, is anything else at allahpundit.com. If we ask real nice will Allah FTP it onto another server? Posted by: David Ross on April 19, 2005 09:21 PM
*sighs* This post should be deleted as soon as humanly possible. Ace, you're a giant pussy. I expected more from you. :P Posted by: fat kid on April 19, 2005 09:31 PM
Why? Because I'm not supposed to let people in on the joke? What the heck kind of thinking is that? You're the type of poser who's really into a band until they start to get big, then you start saying they're "sell-outs." Pussy.
Link fixed! Thanks. Loose shit. Posted by: ace on April 19, 2005 09:35 PM
Don't forget the most important (to me) Anka post of all... Ace made me what I am today... A Slicing ex-Lightman Viking. Posted by: Man of Substance on April 19, 2005 09:36 PM
I'm with Fat Kid. I feel like I just walked out of an orgy that I only now find out was being taped for the next Houston 500. Posted by: Rusty Shackleford on April 19, 2005 09:56 PM
As much as I hate to bite the hand that fed me 600 hits this week, I'm sorta on the side of Fatso and Rusty here. What's the point of an "inside joke" if everyone under the sun is on the inside? Let your new readers ask in the comments. Usually, they get pretty straight answers from the peeps in the know. Posted by: Jack M. on April 19, 2005 10:10 PM
Amen. Oh, and say hello to Nancy for me John 'M' Redcorn. Posted by: Rusty Shackleford on April 19, 2005 10:13 PM
But if we tell people about the inside joke, then, see, they'll be inside too, and we can use all our used-up, old, tired material, and yet they'll laugh, because they haven't heard it before. Besides, you guys are being goofy. I'm not trying for DELIBERATE obscurantism here or anything. Posted by: ace on April 19, 2005 10:13 PM
Ever heard of the Year of Jubilee? It's a biblical principle in which debts are forgiven every seven years. A similar principle could happen here - let people in but only during certain times. Okay, it's a slightly odd idea. Whatever. I'm slightly toasty on wine right now, so I'm bound to be a bit stupid. Posted by: Slublog on April 19, 2005 10:26 PM
Just make sure you remind Nancy that she has an appointment for her headache relief tomorrow at 2:30 Dale...I mean, Rusty. Yeah, I know you aren't trying to be deliberately obscure (hell, Goldstein has that market fairly well cornered), but part of the fun of being a long time reader is the ability to laugh at a "Tuff Turf" reference without having to go through the whole "Kim Richards" explanation tracing your obsession to the pilot episode of "Hello, Larry!". It's sort of like a "loyalty reward". Those who have been here for a while get a little something extra that might fly over the heads of those who are new. Let's be honest...do you really want to have to explain the origins of Johnny Coldcuts and Geoffery the Duck every six months? Or for that matter, explaining "let's be honest"? Posted by: Jack "Redcorn" M. on April 19, 2005 10:31 PM
Why not just start charging subscription fees too, while you're at it? Posted by: Andrew on April 19, 2005 10:33 PM
Jack M. brings up a good point. We haven't seen Johnny Coldcuts in awhile. What's he got to say about this whole Sullivan/Pope thing? Posted by: Slublog on April 19, 2005 10:36 PM
Incidentally, at some point this last weekend K. J. Lopez over at The Corner on NRO titled a post, "[So-and-so] Is On Fire." The virus is spreading... Posted by: utron on April 19, 2005 10:38 PM
Bah, K-Lo pussied out. If she'd really wanted to emulate the World Famous Ace Of Spades Style, she would have titled the post "[So-and-so] Is On Fucking Fire." Considering what a devout, button-down Catholic she is, that would have been priceless. Anybody else think The Corner could stand to have the F-bomb tossed around a little more freely? Or is that just me? Posted by: Jeff B. on April 19, 2005 10:46 PM
The Corner is so effete I expect them all to start addressing each other as "girlfriend" any time now. On Election Day they were all as hysterical and emotional as Excitable Andy ever was. It's getting to be downright embarrassing to share the same broad political ideology as those morons - I doubt I'll be contributing to any of their fundraisers this year. Posted by: Megan on April 19, 2005 10:51 PM
Uh, Megan, do you remember what Ace was like on Election Day? It wasn't pretty. Posted by: someone on April 19, 2005 10:54 PM
Ace, you gotta give us a least one or two posts to make fun of the noobs. Call it an intiation. Posted by: Iblis on April 19, 2005 10:54 PM
Someone - Yeah, I was trying to be nice though. Posted by: Megan on April 19, 2005 10:58 PM
Just to be fair, here's what I posted on Election Day, on my now long-defunct blog. And here's my analysis of the final results. Finally, another link to my post the day after. I hope the GOP grows some balls sometime soon and proves me right. Posted by: Megan on April 19, 2005 11:02 PM
Feel like Anka's been given up to the noobs? Feel like you've got a foul mouthed bandleader shaped hole in your heart? Fill it w/ the old school, the original fuckin maniac. That's right, "I'm Buddy Rich when I fly off the handle." Sadly, a more obscure figure than Anka, but what he lacks in reknown, he makes up for in raw contempt for his musicians. Now, no one could replace Anka, but Buddy'll seen you through these dark moments till you're ready for Paul again. Posted by: Issac Asimov on April 19, 2005 11:27 PM
Sharing inside jokes with new friends is nice. Posted by: lauraw on April 19, 2005 11:38 PM
LauraW, Don't you have some roadrunners that you need to attend to? (Sorry folks..that's a Blogtower Inside Joke and I'm not sharing!) ;) Posted by: Jack M. on April 19, 2005 11:43 PM
Thanks. It's all about that integrity kick at the Ace of Spades HQ. Posted by: David Ross on April 20, 2005 12:09 AM
You all suck. Ace is the only important one on this blog. If he wants to repeat old posts and explain "in" jokes, then that's just the fucking way it is. Posted by: chickpea on April 20, 2005 12:37 AM
Shut your mealy mouth chickpea. You too Ace. Heheh. Posted by: fat kid on April 20, 2005 02:17 AM
I'm almost afrain to ask, but is there a way to download the Anka clip. I've tried before, but it seems to not want to. Oh, and don't hurt me. Posted by: J on April 20, 2005 09:12 AM
"Afrain"? crap. Posted by: J on April 20, 2005 09:13 AM
in the future, will there be pat o'brien explanation reposts? that would be so fucking hot Posted by: johnny on April 20, 2005 09:36 AM
http://www.noisetank.com/integrity/ankage.swf For those who want to save it. Posted by: BJB on April 20, 2005 11:24 AM
Well, I just arrived here yesterday too, and I'd never even heard of this in-joke, but thank you a million times over for the link! I laughed until I cried. You've just acquired at least 10 indulgences. God. Bless. You. Posted by: Wanda on April 20, 2005 04:03 PM
