Fuzzy Fractures Robin Hood and Maid Marian

Author Jim Monaghan

All bets are off when the one and (thankfully) only Executive Producer takes on the story of Robin Hood on today’s episode of Fuzzy’s Fractured Fairy Tales.

Let’s just say that Maid Marian really hopes that Skippy’s aim with that bow and arrow is on target.

Fuzzy’s Fractured Fairy Tales – Robin Hood: Bows and Arrows

ANNOUNCER – It’s time to listen to one of our favorite magical stories. Well, sort of. It’s Fuzzy’s Fractured Fairy Tales on the WDHA Morning Jolt.

FUZZY – Damn! So close to the bullseye. Good morning, everyone. I’m practicing archery, where hitting the target is quite hard. But this leads me to today’s story. It’s Robin Hood, Bows and Arrows.

A master of archery, Robin Hood was teaching a young lad named Skippy on how to use the bow and arrow. It’s all about the fundamentals, which include focus and concentration.

ROBIN HOOD – Lesson number one, Skippy. Take this thingamajiggy. And pull the string back with this other thingama jiggy and let it go. And then we’ll all get jiggy with Will Smith.

SKIPPY – Okie dokie, Mr. Hood. Let’s give it a whirl.

ROBIN HOOD – Oh s**t, kid, you just killed Will Smith. I should have told you to fire where there are no people. But then again, that is lesson number two. I gotta remember to switch those around. I guess we won’t be getting jiggy with it anytime soon. Oh, hell, no.

FUZZY – Despite the death of Will Smith, the lessons continued on a less populated road. Robin Hood placed an apple on the tree branch as Maid Marian waved from a distance.

MAID MARIAN – Greetings, Robin Hood. Hold on, I’m coming over. Oh, it’s always good to see Marian. Time for lesson number three, Skippy. This time, focus and concentrate. If you hit the apple, I’ll appoint you Top Archer of the town.

SKIPPY – Sure thing, Mr. Hood. I’ll try not to kill someone.

ROBIN HOOD – Oh s**t, Skippy, your arrow just took Maid Marian’s dress right off, leaving her naked. Her t***s seem quite perky. I always suspected a b**b job. That little tease. Good job, Skippy. Since you didn’t kill her, I hereby promote you to Top Archer.

SKIPPY – This is great. Can I tie her dress above the fireplace as a trophy?

ROBIN HOOD – Boy, you could do what you want with the dress. I’m gonna tie her to my bed and tickle her until those b**bs explode.

FUZZY – Well, it looks like the kid is doing a better job in archery than I am. Maybe I’ll switch to a different sport, like thumb wrestling. But my hand kind of hurts right now. The hell with it.

Is Green Day's Latest Album Worth Your Time And Money?

This past Friday, Green Day released their fourteenth studio album called “Saviors.” It was a somewhat long wait between this and their previous album “Father of All MF’s”. Don’t get me wrong, not a Tool-like wait, but a 4-year wait, nonetheless. The question now? Is Green Day’s latest album worth your time and money?

Not all, but some bands sound a little tired by album 14. I mean, it’s had to sound fresh and excited and energetic after you’ve made so much music. But Green Day found a way to put out one of their best albums yet! It’s roughly 45 minutes and it’s really fun to listen. For this one, they teamed up with producer Rob Cavallo. And if you’re thinking who’s that? He just happens to be the producer who helped them with Dookie and American Idiot.

And with that, I’ll say this: I think it’s the band’s best album since American Idiot!
I know that’s a bold statement, but it has a great sound throughout. The playing is still top-notch from all three members, and most of the songs are bangin’ rockers. Which is not a bad thing at all.

Green Day has accomplished a lot in their career, especially for a pop-punk band. Normally, they kind of fly under the radar of mainstream success, but Green Day has a way of breaking all barriers. On “Saviors” the band crafts punk albums, hits up-tempo stride and even throws in acoustic ballads. It really is a fantastic recording from beginning to end. This album is like a mashup of all the things they’ve “tried” over the last 30+ years. It blends everything so well but still sounds fresh.

So, is Green Day’s latest album worth your time and money? That’s a resounding yes.

Let’s take a look at 5 moments that stand out!

  • ONE EYED BASTARD

    It’s got a cool riff and some piano. When the pre-chorus kicks in, it’s a full band chant! Everyone sing-along. It’s very catchy!

  • 1981

    It’s almost like one that could have fit on one of their early 90’s records.  Fast, melodic, and poppy.  Love it!

  • GOODNIGHT ADELINE

    There’s emotion here.  As Billy Joe sings “Can you feel my pain” it’s gut wrenching, but still some how an earworm!  The chorus flips this one on it’s head.

  • STRANGE DAYS ARE HERE TO STAY

    A classic sounding pop-punk song.  A simple riff and Billy Joe’s ability to connect with you when he sings.

  • FATHER TO A SON

    Ok, so I picked a sappy one.  Billy Joe singing form a parental standpoint.  It’s the first time he wrote a song about his boys in Green Day’s career and it works so well. Bring on the tissues.
