Redenbacher / Rickenbacker

He does indeed, Jake.

Thanks for all the responses. There are some wonderfully funny things in my family's kidspeak history.

What you said, Noel, really made me smile. My friends (the musicians, anyway) have all started saying "Rickenbacker" the correct way ever since I said, "If you call the corporate office, they would say something along the lines of "RickenBACKer International Corporation, how may I help you?"

...and you'd be surprised at how many phone calls I get from people who've just talked to Rickenbacker about repair or refinish work, get referred to me, and then proceed to ask if I work on RickenBOCKers!

Did they want some humbackers installed on their Rickenbockers?

I do like Back beer.

Didn't Paul McCartney write a song about drinking dark beer in Moscow back in 1968? I think is was called "Bock in the USSR."

Ain't that the title of the new Kanye West release?

Years ago, my friend's two-year-old daughter's favorite movie (flying monkeys, et al) was 'Wiz Woz'...

Wiz Woz! Gotta pass that on to the middle daughter. We watched that movie together easily 150 times or more.

Funny thread.... little kids say the cutest things! When my firstborn was really small he liked "soil sauce" on his rice.

"Santa Closet" was one of my faves from my daughter.
