So far, Amie has only found one floppy, but I'm going to ask her to keep looking.  50 or 60 floppies full of Carnack and other stuff is too big to just disappear--and too important to not share with the world through this blog (I knew you had a stash of stuff just like Randy does).  I also found your monologue at Russ K's going away party, and I really have to know how you and Peat got such brilliant writing genes.  You guys really don't fit an engineer's mold, but then I think we've all known that for years, right?

Fortunately or unfortunately, the floppy Amie found is the same routine that I already had, but here's the continuation of Robin's going away party that I began before my vacation in Hot Springs.  Don't worry, I have a few more redneck photos as well, so there will be more pics in the future.

These jokes are mainly going to make Craig and any WGK or former WGK folks laugh, because they will probably be the only ones who understand the jokes.   But as an introduction, these Carnack routines  were presented with Craig's usual flair at a staff going away party for Robin Prokop, former plant manager (2 managers ago).  Robin was a very small woman with long black hair.  She looked a lot like Wednesday Addams, daughter on the Addams Family TV show, just so you have a visual, and acted a lot like Col. Klink on Hogan's Heroes.   The decorations at the front gate on her last day were legs with striped socks and the ruby slippers sticking out from under the guard shack--as in the Wicked Witch from Oz.  She thought that was funny--and appropriate.  Craig did his usual formidable job at her going away party, complete with towel around his head, which never does stay on--making the routine all the funnier of course.

PS -- Randy/Peat -- Frank Fontaine was on the Jackie Gleason show as a lovable drunk when Jackie was tending bar at the end of the show.  I obviously know a lot more about TV than I do movies!  At least "old" TV.
