Danae, Queen of Earworms or a child prodigy of either S.Palin or M.Bachman.

She must have been watching Good Eats because it’s the only show where they made bouillabaisse this week. And now I’m going to have that same earworm. Thanks a bunch.

I also LOVE Alton Brown and his version of Bouillabasse was great! I used to make a good paella , but that was my version of a dish that used some seafood with a mix.
freeholder1 over 13 years ago

Good Gawd Wiley, you’ve gone and turned this into a cooking column!
LaFee over 13 years ago
Freeholder, bouillabaisse is served hot. You’re thinking of vichysoisse.

Great. I started reading the comics because it’s 3 am and I can’t sleep.
And now I’m hungry, too.
(Knew I shoulda read Dick Tracy first…Thanks a lot, Wiley…)

The Posh Nosh series on PBS offered great cooking using incomprehensible foods and directions. They also offered over priced gadgets, equipment and hard to find condiments on their ticker.

MOLE!

That’s ridiculous. Nobody gets a word like bouillabaisse stuck in their head just by saying bouillabaisse. It’s not like bouillabaisse is that catchy. It’s just bouillabaisse bouillabaisse bouillabaisse bouillabaisse bouillabaisse bouillabaisse bouillabaisse
Aaaaaaaaaaghghghg!

JohnnyDiego, I don’t know why you’ve got grilled cheese on the brain. It’s no at all catchy and it tastes like warmed over doggy doo.

When Howard Hughes got stuck like that, it was a sign of his insanity getting out.

ilsapadu over 13 years ago
Yep it’s stuck. Doesn’t take much, once Magnum had on a cap that said Da Nang and It was stuck in my head for the rest of that day. Probably for the rest of today too.

Any of you who think “Zippy the Pinhead” is the origin of repeating word-echos obviously never had kids.
LeStats over 13 years ago
spam spam spam spam spam…
kfaatz925 over 13 years ago
Love it! How about “ratatouille?”
docnuke over 13 years ago
Somone insulted Wiley yesterday suggesting this idea was a rip-off of “Zippy,” and while the Pinhead does love to repeat weird words, repetition is a comedy staple. The Frantics, Kids in the Hall and classic Abbott & Costello bits relied on rapid repetition of funny words.
Coyoty Premium Member over 13 years ago
Siberman said yesterday, @ Coyoty: It simply amazes me how someone can take the words of a pre-pubescent comic character concerning a cooking show and turn them into a political commentary.
Then again , what can you expect from someone who can’t even spell their avatar’s name properly ?
It’s “coyote” in American English and Spanish. “Coyotl” in Nahuatl (from whence the modern name derives).
Yes, I am simply amazing.
And my name is spelled correctly. It’s an adjective.
Coyoty (adj.): Like a coyote or Coyote in form, spirit, or humor. Ready to puns upon any opportunity for wordprey.

Iz in you bouillabases…steelin you froggy legs.
freeholder1 over 13 years ago
Thanks, LeFee. At least someone was “listening.” Its name even means “Boil” and “simmer.” I like how all the cooking “experts” didn’t bother to mention it. ;-)
