And if we’re not on the bus, then _we’re marching, marching, to Shibboleth, with the eagle and the sword…_ So, fellow Firesign fans, line up, sign up, and re-enlist today! For we need more schooling, for more students, for Morse Science High School. ---

Mah fellow settlers, we stand here on the edge of civilzation looking west, towards a new frontier. What may appear to the fainthearted as a limitless expanse of God forsaken territory is, in reality, a golden opportunity for humble God fearing people, like ourselves, our children and the generations a’comin’ to carve a new life out of the … _American Indian_! ---

Defoliating a victory garden sure works up an appetite. I wonder where Ruth is? Wait a minute, didn’t I say that on the other side of the record? I can shout, don’t hear you. Welcome to side six. Follow in your books and repeat after me as we learn three new words in Turkish. Sit over there. Next to Glaubner. ---

**Shoes for industry, compadre!** Serially now, I found Firesign Theater’s complete collection – including some tripped out Y2K stuff – on CD. (I already have the black vinyl versions.) College reunion this fall – it’ll be mandatory listening. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-think-were-all-bozos-on-this-bus-firesign-spoken-here/175039.md?page=2)
