Top 10 Rejected Lord Foul Schemes, Manipulations and Plots for Destroying the Land and the Arch of Time
10. Go into the house of every Stonedowner, Treehugger and Lord and leave a bag of flaming Arghule poo on the doorstep, just to be an ass.
9. Build a series of big-box shopping convenience stores called "Foul-Mart" across the Land offering offering tons of high end goods at low, low prices, thereby making all of the small local buisnesses bankrupt. Move your stores to the real world, leaving the Land with nothing and put the Land into a decade-long recession.
8. Fly around the earth really, really fast and then hit it with an amasing amount of force, causing time to go backwards. Once back in time, give Lord Berek a terrible wedgie and call him a "Nancy-boy." Berek cries and goes home. (What, Lord Foul can't fly? And you can't travel back in time this way? It worked on Superman...)
7. Release a chemical global warming agent into the atmosphere very, very slowly, that will cause the temperature of the earth to raise a tenth of a degree every one hundered years. In 4000 millenia, laugh.
6. Convince Thomas Covenant that he is, in fact, the White Gourd Wielder. Then pummel him with oranges.
5. Say "Strom", summoning Strom Thurmond. Command Strom Thurmond to destroy the Land using his Jedi powers.
4. Challenge Covenant to a game of Rock-Paper-Scissors for possession of his ring. Laugh when Covenant crys as he is unable to make the any of the signs correctly due to missing his fingers. If that doesn't work, cheat.
3. Give up on trying to destroy the Land and the Arch of Time and try to destroy something easier, like, say, Wyoming.
2. Um...I donno...a bazooka?
1. Introduce Linden Avery to the Land...oh wait...

When Jay gets rolling, he's pretty much untouchable.

Fabulous list, Stonemaybe! You know your music!
Heh, I preferred to watch the real thing - i.e. Mr. Douglas. I first heard the song only a few years ago during one of those late night infomercials selling 70's music. It's very catchy and charmingly naive - which I guess describes 70's pop/disco pretty well.Menolly wrote:(I love the Kung Fu Fighting lipsync!)
Well, if there ever was a "real" video for that song, I didn't see it. Was that show the 1974 live performance you're referring to? uk.youtube.com/watch?v=lTiSzFp4arg
That seems to be the best one with Douglas. There's also this one: uk.youtube.com/watch?v=HZGMVKaLLOI
Not a lot out there featuring Douglas - but a whole lot of tribute videos and anime crap.
