In todays Horace, there's a poster for Wayne Wagonwheels III. The name has a familiar ring to it... is the character based on anyone we know?
-
I saw that. Singing about running over a kitten. Very funny. I liked the fact he had a number as part of his name.

Something amusing about that, hmmm?
-
Not amusing particularly, but maybe I'm just a little envious. I quite admire people who have numbers after their names - particularly Kings, and to a lesser degree, Popes who precede the numbers ten and above.
Since I was a kid, I've always wanted to write a book about James III, but sadly I know very little about him, other than his first name, and that he was a King. I bet he had some stories to tell!

...sadly I know very little about him, other than his first name, and that he was a King. I bet he had some stories to tell!
He was also the third king called James.

Oh yeah - I'd realised that of course.
Anyway, we're taking the spotlight away from Wayne Wagonwheels!

It should have been Kate Kitkat.

Wayne Wagonwheel III has appeared off and on for years. There's a real country singer with a similar name---something like Wayne Loudwright III---I just adapted it. I prefer the name I gave to The Nomad when he had a brief spell as a country singer----Hank Tumbleweed.
-
Hank Tumbleweed.
Genius!

Close, Roger - very close! (http://www.lwiii.com/)

There's a guy called Porter Waggoner too, apparently he was Dolly Parton's mentor.
This thought has come right out of the blue, but there was a mythical Greek warrior called Stentor, whose incredibly loud voice made him an ideal herald during the Trojan wars.
I wonder if Stentor had a mentor?
-
Tarks, I did say it was SOMETHING like Wayne Loudwright III !
-
And it was, Roger. It was.
-
I wonder if Stentor had a mentor?
He had a pet centaur.
-
Stentor the mentor
Had a centaur
But did he act like a gent or
Not, and live in a tent or
rent or not.
-
Encore! Encore!
(that's French for "Yer poetry sucks!"...I think! Malc, have you got an Anglo-Franco dictionary down your hallway?)
-
Depends. Is that one of yer euphemisms?
-
Sorry it took me over three months to answer that.
