Sinister: The 1970's

[Adrian Evans]

Steven Garland mentioned dogs on wheels and their ability to pull
wheelies at will.

Firstly, do puppies on wheels have stabilizers ?

Secondly, It's always bugged me, but what if a dog on wheels owner came
home from work, and the dog forgot his limblessness and tried to jump up
and greet his master with an exchange of saliva as dogs inevitably do ?

He would surely land on his back and be stuck with wheels pointing to
the heavens spinning slowly to a halt like when a car overturns in the
movies.

Worse still, what if his master took him for a spin, sorry a walk down
by the river and inadvertently forgot his pets challenged mobility and
threw him a stick in the water to collect ?

Disasterous...One drowned K-9 and his owner gets 6 months in Channings
Wood for animal cruelty.  It's a terrible world out there kids.
Don your cardies and stay in your bedsits.

That certainly applies (at least the first bit) to the Gamble and Huff
output in the seventies, some of the covers look truly atrocious,
quite smelly in fact, like something you found in the mate's loft,
next to their dad's porno mags, towards the end of the school
holidays.

That's not the only thing in the 70's that smelt.  Remember the Panini
f**tb*ll albums ?

I swear blind the smelliest sensation in the world was opening a pack of
stickers and finding you had a Bolton Wanderers player in there. P!O!O!
Or worse still Ian Greaves the then manager....WIFFY.
Or Wolves....Oooooooohhhh Phewie !...Kenny Hibbit...Oh !!!
Or Leeds United....their kit STANK !!

remember how Kermit the Frog would sometimes introduce his
little nephew, Robin, to sing a song about being halfway up the stairs?

No I remember him introducing his nephew Robin to sing "Halfway Down the
Stairs".  I'm not being picky, there's a world of difference.
