Justin Wilson I

Heh. JeffS sort of got the reference but isn't a fan. Emily didn't get the reference at all. So I'll tell the two Justin Wilson stories I remember from all those years ago on KFAT [bows head in memory] radio. First story is about two drunk (is there any other kind?) Irishmen down in Louisiana.

They crawl out of a bar at closing time. Crawl across the road in front of the bar. Crawl onto some railroad tracks. Then they start crawling up the RR tracks.

After a while, one says "This is the longest damn stair-step-way I ever climbed."

The other says "I don't mind the long stair-step-way, but this low handrail's gonna kill me."

Heh! I do recall watching Justin and laughing, but way back then, food shows were something that I didn't watch much. I recall the "Galloping Gourmet" (because of my middle school shop teacher) and Justin Wilson ('cuz I never heard a Cajun until he came on the boob tube), and that's all.

I vaguely recall that it was my father who watched him. I can only assume that it was for Justin's humor, because Dad didn't cook much. He could, but only when necessary.

I never actually saw his show, only heard the bits played on the radio, but I knew he had one.
