Saturday Snapshots #129 - The Answers


I thought I'd get a Doctor to prescribe the answers this week, and this was the first one I could find. We could all use a good doctor right about now...


10. A town like Tokyo.


A town = Alpha Ville.

Tokyo is a BIG town IN JAPAN.

Alphaville - Big In Japan

9. I am Mark Pox. Press here.


" I am Mark Pox" is an anagram.

Maxïmo Park - Apply Some Pressure

8. Where we're all heading... next to the snowball factory.


The Icicle Works - Shit Creek

Some guitars in there which will certainly blow away the cobwebs.

7. Ricky says hello... to God.... one Christmassy dawn?


Rick Nelson said Hello, Mary Lou.

Mary Lou Lord - Some Jingle Jangle Morning

6. Itinerant dance arsonists.


The Trammps - Disco Inferno

5. So What, Pretty Boy? On yer...


Pink sang So What. 

Pretty Boy Floyd.

On yer bike.

Pink Floyd - Bike

4. Amp from Southern L.A., anytime, any place.


Marshall amp.

Crenshaw is in Southern L.A.

Marshall Crenshaw - Someday, Somewhere

3. Be aware: snot materialises!


"Snot materialises" is our anagram of the month.

Alanis Morissette - You Oughta Know

2. I'd like a fraternity smack collection, please.


A fraternity is a brotherhood.

A smack on the lips is a kiss.

The Brotherhood of Man - Save All Your Kisses For Me

I loved that when I was a kid.

"Even though you're only three."

1. Valuation of William Cody Simpson's hometown.


William Cody was Buffalo Bill.

The Simpson's hometown is Springfield.

A valuation tells you what something is worth.

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
Step out of line, the men come and take you away!



Will Saturday Snapshots be back next week?

Who knows?
