interviewer: wow, what a great attitude.
frank: it's called rational thinking.
interviewer: so few people seem to be able to get a handle on it.
frank: yeah, it was phased out in the reagan administration.

this might resonate MORE now than it did then. in the end, i think his understanding of post-war culture will overpower the prevailing one, and people will look back and think it was defined by utter idiocy.

i'm glad somebody finally uploaded something approaching a full version of this. i had my cds packed for a while, and couldn't find it anywhere online...


full version:

some of the other answers might get you something close (just be sure to crank the fuzz with some kind of tube preamp, and probably even a line booster - this is very high gain), but it sounds to me like that octave-y sound is actually an electronic relic of his guitar synthesizer tracking in and that the actual answer is something along the lines of digital distortion on a violin or cello patch, rather than anything created with guitar pedals you can get in a store. it's also probably manual whammy technique getting that envelope wah, rather than anything digital.

ok. but can you show us how to cook a potato in a chicken?


"don't egg him on"!

also, can you do a chicken in a watermelon?

having fun by yourself? =D

other people are mostly figments of our own imagination, anyways.

How about an egg (or 2) inside a potato inside a chicken. That would offer a decent balanced meal for you and a friend, or an imaginary friend who's not that hungry and wants you to eat their food ;-) hehehe

indeed, that's what i really want, is that depth. ultimately, what i'm interested in is that age old question....

also, it's very true that other people mostly exist in our minds, subjectively. there is an object out there with physical qualities, but personalities are mostly interpreted by outside observers. so, the way i interpret a person is different than the way another person will interpret that same person, the difference being entirely perceptive and existing solely in our minds. i'm not sure if what i meant to say got across, there.

No, but a pizza in a potato.

deathtokoalas
now, how are you going to fit a pizza in a potato? unless, you mean a pizza pocket idea...
