I'll say!

Looks like a nicely streamlined reference document now!

WOW! This is awesome-- and fucking hilarious! Very cool.

[sandy]

hey all, i just read this thread, (been out a couple of days, had a car accident- -and have had a killer headache since,) i haven't had a chance to read all the pages of this thread yet, but has anyone mentioned 'letch and peeps?' as in "don't letch on my peeps?"

[Lynne]

This is just fantastic! Thanks to TOWOS and Schmaffy for such great work.

Now that we've broken apart the Gong phrases, I suggest the following refinement:

Oh My Gong (phr.) - an exclamation (often of wonder and joy) that acknowledges the Supremacy of the Gong (see also Good Gong)

And I can't believe no one's touched kinetic! Since I am known elsewhere as lkkinetic, I'll take a stab at it:

Kinetic - relating to the motion of material bodies and the forces associated therewith; an apt description for the Kinetic Kid, the Man's alter ego (see also Klark Kent)

Klark Kent (n.) - The Man's alter ego (only after having seen the video of the Drum Clinic). (See Stewart Copeland, Maestro, The Man, Kinetic)

[quote="TOWOS"][quote="TheEqualizer"]I thought that the definition of watermelon would be "the only food that is confirmed that STEWART has eaten" or something like that.[/quote]

Ahh, I love this. Wasn't in a Jackie's video where Stewart was eating some spaghetti?... Wait, I'll look for it.

Yes, here it is:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiR4A2ZV0aU

And there is a Dinner Tale where he talks about the amazing Fiona's pasta and sauce. It's the "BAKE-OFF IN FORT WORTH" one.

Now the Glossary is almost complete, maybe we could think in "The Stewart Copeland Trivia"... But that could be an endless one.

[Rusty James]

Squib (v.) – undesirable result of striking said gong by missing the “sweet spot”.

As described by the man himself: “Sort of like a premature ejaculation. There’s nothing for it so I take a big swing for the big hit. Problem is, I’m just fractionally too far away and the beater misses the sweet spot and the big pompous opening to the show is a damp squib.”

[TheEqualizer]

How about "hola" "gracias" "tequilla" and "Donde esta mi caballo" as the only Spanish known by STEWART. (STEWART told Jose long ago that the first three words were the only words he knew in Spanish after an imposter was chatting on line with Jose in Spanish. The last phrase was mentioned by STEWART to GeorgyGirl).

Oh, I missed that version.

Here is STEWART's post, which was labeled GREETINGS FROM POLICEWORLD!

QUOTE:
Hi folks!

Thanks for all of your birthday felicitations. The tour is going by so fast that it’s a blur. We’re actually getting pretty good! I’ve hit the gong perfectly for several gigs in a row now…

I love seeing the green flag out there. It was so close in Cleveland that Andy almost tripped over it.

Many, many thanks for all of your support. I love you all (including you Deitmar!)

Thank you soo much Everybody!! All great contributions, Schmaff or anybody who wants to help, I will incorporate them all, but please if you see something that looks wrong point it out!!
Lynn, we had left that for YOU!!!!

Uccellina, yes, that is Stewart's spelling of Dietmar, and I think it should be explained in a note. Freinds: same reason. THANK YOU EQ! And yep, we need some Spanish from Stew, since we have so many Spanish-speaking nutters...
I'll gladly add spaghetti to the diet (one of my favorites, and I can make mean ones too - no meatballs, not an Italian way of cooking spaghetti).
I think Stew also mentioned that Fiona cooked once some angelhair pasta with broccoli (apparently a Wolfgang Suck, ehm, Puck, recipe, sorry, not a fan of his pizzas) but it is not known if he partook...

[TOWOS]

Forgot: THUUUUUUNNNKKKKK!!!!!!!! After seeing Jan's new avatar....

Yes, Sophie, that is the Forth Worth tale I was referring to...
BTW, in Jackie's vid (which, to me, is the best vid EVER...all my favorite Stew moments are there...) he is eating some Asian noodles. Our Multikultural Maestro!!!!
