Did we surrender when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

"What are looking at me like that for?"
"Senator Bluto?"
"Hey if Al Franken can do it Acorn can elect somebody that's been dead for thirty years. Whats the big fucking deal. Hopey changey shitheads."

Animal House was an accurate portrayal of my sophomore years (both of them) at university. Every character in that movie was in the house where I lived. I was part Bluto Blutarsky, part Founder.

At the very same time I was pretending to be a student, John Belushi was doing likewise (in real life) at a different college in the same B league system in Wisconsin. I went to Oshkosh; he attended Whitewater.

We didn't know of him by name, but did know that the commercials that aired on radio in parts of Wisconsin for a sub sandwich chain called Suburpia featured the voice of a Whitewater student doing a perfect, killer good over the top impersonation of Joe Cocker. Turned out to have been Belushi.

He did the Joe Cocker bit later on SNL.

Where were we? I forget.

You just filled you cheeks with mashed potato and then smashed your hands onto them and spit them across the room and went "Look I'm a zit."

Then you wife hit you on the head with a fying pan.

I later transferred to a real university, partly cleaned up my act and finally gradumated.

Nonetheless, my transcript still shows my final status as "double secret probation", a badge of honor I wear proudly, especially when I consider how badly this country has been fucked up by the A students who've gone to DC.

Trooper you have to find that Belushi Cocker scene. I can still picture it with Belushi imitating Cocker right next to him.

Actually, Bluto was supposed to end up as a senator, if I recall the ending correctly.

Suburpia?! Based on that alone they deserved to go out of business.

Suburpia made the best sandwiches, ever. They went out of business mostly because of management's drug use. A couple of attempts to re-open a single store with all the original recipes have been attempted, usually in bad locations and without success.

Writing about this, I can still smell the bread baking in the stores and taste the sandwiches. Good!

It's all about the sandwiches man.
