All That's Missing are the White Socks

2 shot when man’s gun accidentally discharges at Parma Armory [More]

Takes me back to the origin of the "Only Ones"...

That and to Ernie "Ghoulardi" Anderson. Here's a story I didn't know before and it cracked me up:

In the mid-1960s, Ghoulardi's irreverence overtook the rarefied Severance Hall, where an Italian Cleveland Orchestra guest conductor introduced himself and said that he was from Parma (in northern Italy). According to Tim Conway, misunderstanding members of the audience burst out singing Ghoulardi's polka theme.

Mark Twain once said that "A youth who can't hit a cathedral at thirty yards with a Gatling gun in three-quarters of an hour, can take up an old 'empty' musket and bag his mother every time at a hundred." Out newest crop of bystander-baggers, such as Baldwin and this guy, are now upping the ante by scoring twofers.
