Did he say banjitar?

Earles & Jensen Just Farr a Laugh v.1&2: These guys are awesome! I don't know how many times we've listened to their cd set but we're making copies for friends now. These prank calls are a bit more cerebral than most and filled with obscure references and original scenarios. If your hip friend turns up his nose at prank calls just tell him Matador released the set.

Referenced was a banjitar and we wondered if one existed. Of course they do! So do American flag ponchos, we saw Kid Rock sporting one at Super Bowl XXXVIII. Cringe. There is enough cultural ilk from just the past 20 years to create thousands of cheesey scenarious and characters. Earles & Jensen, give us Bleachy, Ditchweed and Rocky among other casualties of modern American kitschculture. If you think avocado colored appliances, shag carpet and The Brady Bunch were bad, it got worse: Simon&Simon, The Whammy and Teddy Ruxpin and don't forget the aforementioned banjitar and American flag poncho (and Kid Rock).
