Hey! And what happened to this: https://youtube.com/watch?v=EEaV-WlJEow ??? Oh well, seems like it's going in the same direction as Total Chaos Riot City... sniff, sniff... (not cocaine, but tears)

You may be the only North-American person this year to use the full "recapitulating". It otherwise never escapes "recap", like the others of the family. And good afternoon!

1:42 PM, April 9th, 2025

1:58 PM, April 9th, 2025
Renny G (host)
And Benoît. they aren't old if you've never heard them before, That makes them new. And as for Chicken Bop....I used to play chicken songs at the end of every Riot once upon a time.

Drakester & Dadio at The Radio
Just back from walking The Drakester. Rockin' greetings to Renny & His Riotous Rioteers, one and all !! Tunes are taking me back to wasting away summer hangin' on the Petawawa River Beach listening to rockin' tunes on the large horn shaped speakers atop a string of hydro poles all along the beach. Very tinny and old school, boys !!!

There's a dearth of whistling songs nowadays. Also of yodeling. More seriously, a dearth of sexy-ophones and organ music.

2:42 PM, April 9th, 2025
Belle Graham
Geez, thats à lot of whistling!!! Only thing missing is Roger Whitaker. Every heard him whistle? Holy scheiss, world hampion whistler. He made women Riot, Renny. Now thats better than à dog.whistle!

Sheriff Drake
I love it.....a fine turn of Cujo, mon ami !! BTW......I also have inquired about the conspicuous absence of Hillbilly.......we can only hope he is vacationing abroad, and not under his canoe on a frozen lake. Shame about your new car, Bobby. That's freakin' nasty business. I must get Drake to put a vengence posse together to go on a hunt for the mannerless beast.
