Son of Stuck Funky

As LesFest mercifully draws to a close, Funky lets the Cold Duck flow like champagne. As an alcoholic, he probably should delegate that task to someone else, but I guess since Funky was able to walk away from that vodka and orange, he is officially immune. Someone goes over to the Wurlitzer and fires up a sweet old Hank Williams song.

Darling let’s turn back the years
And go back to yesterday

Let’s go back even further: to the nerdiest wedding in history, the nuptial of Lisa (aka Robin the Boy Wonder) and Les (aka Batman) Moore.

Let’s pretend that time has stopped
And I didn’t go away

But honey, if you didn’t “go away”, I’d have nothing to write about, and I wouldn’t have all of northeastern Ohio lining up to kiss my ass.

We had our love to make us happy

I’m assuming that’s a younger, more svelte Funky dressed as gay Spiderman, deftly deflecting the bridal bouquet towards future first wife Cindy Summers (shown here still sporting her narwhal-like hairstyle).

It wasn’t meant to bring us tears

Of course, this being the Funkiverse, everything brings us tears. But I’m not going to waste time crying over Crazy Harry’s awful Fat Elvis “impersonation”, or the fact that Ann Apple’s pink jacket has turned blue.

Love like ours should never die
So darling let’s turn back the years

Let’s all raise a can of ginger ale to Les. And for the love of God, can we move on to a different plotline?

Wishing everybody a Halloween that is much less lame than the one depicted here!
