On the Road With Bob and Larry

Thanks for stopping by VeggieTales Review! Whether you're a fruit, a vegetable or something else, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I don’t know how many times I’ve heard this CD.  Or at least heard a couple of songs from this CD.  This is by far one of the more entertaining of the early CDs.  It features both the running commentary (where Bob talks about how every time Larry reads the map they end up at the roller rink, how many Veggies it takes to screw in a light bulb and how many people can fit in a mini-van) as well as the duplicate tracks that can be split so that you can sing the songs without the Veggies singing.

My children’s personal favorites are the “I’ve Been Working on the Railroad” medley that they sing as well as the really catchy “Stop and Go with Mercy.”

I find Archibald’s nod to the musical Oklahoma (”Surrey with Fringe on Top”) amusing as well Bob and Larry’s 70’s hit “Ease on Down the Road.”

Any of your veggie lovers get this CD?  What did you think?

A Haiku from Sumo of The Opera

In our Review on Sumo of the Opera, we received a question from Rico:

DO you know what the rest of Po-Ta-To’s haiku is when he messes up his back?

“oh my aching back….”

and then I go blank. I want to remember …. can you help? …

And of course, we sprung into action.  (There’s a joke right near the haiku where Larry says he’s a spring roll.)  In any case, through careful study we have found that this is Haiku in question:

Oh my aching back

Might as well call Workman’s Comp

It’s thrown out again.

And that’s the Jibber Jabber from Po-Ta-Toh (the Mr. T impersonator).

Are You Ready to Do Nothing?

Get ready…

The pirates who don’t do anything are out to do something again. Pretty soon they’ll have to change their name!

The next VeggieTales Movie adventure is set to launch in 2008. It is being directed by Phil Vischer and stars the Pirates (Larry the Cucumber, Pa Grape and Mr. Lunt) as they set out on an adventure where they are called to be real heroes.
