Johnny Ramone died after a five-year battle with prostate cancer. That's the third Ramone to die in the past 3 years.

well they're not young, they lived hard and they don't have infinite money like the stones or something so they can use the blood of infants to keep on living.

All the points of light seem to be twinkling out.



Gabba Gabba Hey

Title: Bobcat
Original Air Date: May 27, 1994
Guest Stars: Bobcat Goldthwait, The Ramones
Synopsis: During an otherwise friendly interview with comedian Bobcat Goldthwait, Zorak reveals Space Ghost's secret identity: Tad Ghostal. Goldthwait agrees to party with Space Ghost after the show. The festivities are spoiled, however, by Zorak and his punk friends, The Ramones.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SG (Space Ghost):
Okay! We're back with Bobcat Goldthwait! I understand that you have special powers.
BG:
Yes. I'm able to, uh, bend forks.
SG:
Wow!
BG:
But only at Denny's. Any other kind of forks I don't seem to be able to bend.
SG:
Wow, now, is this physically or mentally?
BG:
Um, I do it with my mind... but you gotta look away, really, for a little while.
SG:
When I said you were pretty, I meant you remind me of Judy Collins.
BG:
Judy Collins? (laughs) Wow, Space Ghost, man, crack a window, will ya?
SG:
I'd be violently sucked into space.
M:
Heh, then maybe people would tune in.
BG:
Well, I think Moltar's giving us the signal to wrap it up, huh, Space Ghost?
SG:
No, Bobcat, that's just his way of telling us to finish the interview. Join us for dinner after the show?
BG:
Thanks, I'd love to join you for dinner, but I don't know about eating with no gigantic locust. Don't they spit on their food first and then mulch it up and spit it back out?
Z:
That's regurgitational ingestion, flies do it, not locusts.
BG:
Yeah, well that, but you know, that's exactly how I eat, so, perhaps I will dine with you.
SG:
Alrighty! We'll meet you in the chamber after the show. Any parting words?
BG:
Space Ghost, I want to party with you.
SG:
You mean with a party cake and lemonade and paper hats?
BG:
Perhaps, perhaps.
SG:
Alrighty then! My next guests are Zorak's favorite band. Please welcome the Ramones!
BG:
Thanks, man.
(Ramones appear on screen)
Z:
Hey, Joey.
Joey Ramone (JR):
(waves)
SG:
Okay then. Identify yourselves, Ramones.
Johnny Ramone (JR):
Hi, I'm Johnny Ramone.
Marky Ramone (MR):
And I'm Marky Ramone.
JR:
And I'm Joey.
C. J. Ramone (CJR):
And I'm C.J.
Z:
And I'm Zorak Ramone.
M:
And I'm Moltar Ramone.
SG:
(to camera) They're not really Ramones. (to Ramones) Say, fellas, tell us about your new record.
JR:
"Acid Eaters", that's our latest album, it's a cover album of, uh, songs that were recorded in, um, generally around the 1967-68 period of time.
SG:
And it's just now coming out?
Ramones (R):
(all laugh)
SG:
Say, guys, on your third album, "Rocket Fuel", (starts gibbering) whoops, too many Cokes.
R:
(all laugh)
SG:
Ah ha haa! Hey! Tell me about your music.
CJR:
It's snappy.
JR:
It's always meant for rebellious kids.
SG:
Rebellious?
JR:
Uhhh, we're a bunch of punks.
SG:
Hmmm... Well, you just listen to me, you punks, I don't want any trouble from you. This is a good show. This is a clean show. This is a good clean show.
CJR:
You ever get a wedgie in tights? It's not pleasant. (laughs)
SG:
Uhhh...
BG:
(on control room monitor, with Locust text from before, to Moltar) This is going as well as the Letterman-Madonna interview.
M:
Yup.
SG:
Allll right then, you punks, you're musicians, make something up for me.
MR:
Well, how about: "way, we-we-way, wah wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah, way way way way way way-we-way."
SG:
"Way way way"; that's catchy!
JR:
It was subliminal.
MR:
That was, that was the instrumental part.
SG:
Ah!. Uh, do the word part.
MR:
How about: "Space Ghost, Space Ghost, you're the most, from coast to coast..."
SG:
Listen, we have to go. Bobcat invited me to a party, with a party cake and lemonade and paper hats, and you can't come because you're punks and punks don't go to parties. Hey, you guys got a cake!
MR:
It's a nice chocolate vanilla.
JR:
There's plates right there...
SG:
Hey! Where'd you guys get that cake?
(All Ramones are "wearing" paper hats)
MR:
You want a piece of this?
CJR:
Yeah.
SG:
That's my party cake! Where did you guys get my party cake? Who gave them my party cake? I want my party cake! That was specifically definitely for Bobcat and me! Zorak! Did you give them my party cake?
Z:
(with paper hat on & crumbs falling out of mouth) Uh, what party cake?
M:
(with paper hat & cake) Mmmm, chocolate party cake.
(Credits roll. Ghost Planet in credits is wearing a party hat)
MR:
"Way, we-we-way, wah wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah, way way way way way way-we-way. (skip) we-way. (skip) we-way (skip) we-way." (fade out)

Shit. I used to like the Ramones very much when I was about 12.

They had the best song titles ever:

- The KKK took my baby away
- Blitzkrieg bop
- Somebody put something in my drink
- Pet cemetery
etc

1, 2, 3, 4.

Did the Ramones have a rehearsal space built on a toxic dump or what?

It's really bizarre, because I always miss the news about one of the Ramones dying by a few days. I never hear about it the day it happens, or even the day after. Just a few days ago I was thinking about how two of them had died in the last few years, and then I find out a couple days ago that Johnny was dead when I was thinking that.

Mr. Burns: Smithers, have the Rolling Stones killed.

Smithers: Sir, those aren't--

Mr. Burns: Do as I say!
