Roto-rooter.

"What a gulla-bull. What a nin-cow-poop."

Uh, some cartoon or 'nother. Sounds like Bugs Bunny.

Correct and correct. And a Connection?

RWH said...

Um.

In the erudite quote, Bugs is talking to Fernando the Bull. "Fernando" is a song by ABBA. "Roto-Rooter" is a song by Bootsy Collins. Bootsy Collins and ABBA are the two funkalicious jewels of your collection of classic vinyl.

Or something.

Ted Hobgood said...

Um...some would question the "funk factor" of ABBA. Try again.

Hmmmm. I'm stunked unless it's this:

Daffy: You say the Loch Ness Monster is living in your jacuzzi?
Daffy: Well, call Roto-Rooter!

Ted Hobgood said...

Nope.

RWH said...

Something to do with Futurama?

Ted Hobgood said...

Ben's got an interesting idea there; that's a pretty creative guess.

Nothing to do with Futurama, no. There will never be anything to do with Futurama.

Connection:
Samuel Blanc invented the Roto-Rooter.
Mel Blanc provided the voice of Bugs Bunny.
