Particle Man? Oh, I like that song. He can repaint my house.

Frank, if you keep up this nonsense, then you'll have to be maid instead of the gardener. And you WILL be wearing the French maid outfit.

Actually, "pompatus" would make sense as "display", as opposed to "one who displays", given the context of the song. But I had never realized that it was a cock-up on Miller's part. I always thought it was some weird slang word or something from a movie or something that people understood back when he wrote it. Hm... *leans against the wall thinking but accidentally bumps the shelves, and a knife falls down on Siegfried* Oh, my. How strange. That exact same thing just happened to Merv Griffin when I was talking to Frank on ICQ...

And Merv Griffin was acting as my stunt double at the time...I'm not sure why, but...

Tim, actually there was a (pitiful) movie called the Pompatus of Love which debutted in 1996. And would you people please stop throwing knives at me? I'm running out space to add names on my Pompatus Hit List.

Okay, Frank, what did I tell you about not bothering the Pompatus? Uh huh. Your descendents are going to be very mad at you for mocking me.

*looks at the blood flowing out the stumps which used to be his hands*
Frank, you honestly think my wrist flipping is how I worked my powers? It was all for show.
*hands magically reattach themselves*
Geez, Frank. What next? You gonna drop the space shuttle on me?

First I'm a whatchamacallit and now I'm a thingamabob? Is it really that hard to write Pompatus?
