Dune And The Singing Cowboy

Maybe it's just the inside of my head, but the name of this brand of corn meal struck me a bit oddly:I'm sure it makes great baked goods, but even a greenhorn knows t'check f'r chaumas 'afore diggin' in....

    It is by will alone that I set my mind in motion.

    All I got this morning is "Ya-hya chouhada," sung to the tune of "Roll Out the Barrel." Not nearly the same thing.

    What a way to wake up: Vectored from Saturday matinees to sandworms to Beetlejuice to Firesign Theater (back to the shadows, again...)

    Where's my coffee?

    I should probably ask LawDog instead, but if sandworms had legs and fur, would that make them Spice Weasels?

    It's not "Dune" but how about "Two Utz" as in "My Cousin Vinny"? (See http://travelingpedagogue.blogspot.com/2008/09/two-utz-from-pa.html)

    Personally, I'm a "Snyder's of Hanover fan." Must have something to do with the big Snyder's pretzel tin Grandma had on top of her fridge.
