channeling Chico Marx?

Rufus T. Firefly: Now, what is it that has four pairs of pants, lives in Philadelphia, and it never rains but it pours?
Chicolini: Atsa good one. I give you three guesses.
Rufus T. Firefly: Now let me see. Has four pair of pants, lives in Philadelphia... Is it male or female?
Chicolini: No, I no think so.
Rufus T. Firefly: Is he dead?
Chicolini: Who?
Rufus T. Firefly: I don't know. I give up.
Chicolini: I give up, too.

ETA:
Prosecutor: Something must be done! War would mean a prohibitive increase in our taxes.
Chicolini: Hey, I got an uncle lives in Taxes.
Prosecutor: No, I'm talking about Taxes - Money, Dollars!
Chicolini: Dollars! There's-a where my uncle lives! Dollars, Taxes!
(this exchange must have had a lasting impact on young Stevie Miller).

[reporting on shadowing Firefly]
Chicolini: Monday we watch-a Firefly's house, but he no come he wasn't home. Tuesday we go to the ball game, but he fool us: he no show up. Wednesday HE go to the ball game, but we fool HIM, WE no show up. Thursday it was a double-header nobody show up. Friday it rained all day, there was no ball game, so we stayed home, we listen to it over the radio.

Yep, Chico is where I got it.  That's some of my favorite comedy schtick.  Especially the contract scene in Night at the Opera.

My copy certainly wasn't.  I wonder if the .jpg on amazon is as bad as this one from AMG.

funny. i heard "pimp men."


It's not the pimps who are smokin' them cigars, ya feel?

Damn, sorry I missed this one.  BOS to Elton, my favorite song of his, and it gives me an excuse to ask: Have any of you ever heard the covers he recorded in 1969-70 for budget comps?  Wildly improbable stuff like "Yellow River," "United We Stand," and "To Be Young, Gifted and Black" (!!!) ?  I've seen the tracks compiled on CD but have always been afraid to buy.
