Lloyd P. Farley​

AS SEEN ON TV!

Lloyd Farley, born and raised in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, is a published author and a quick wit.Devastatingly handsome, an intellect well beyond genius and remarkably humble, Lloyd knew from an early age that his passion was bringing joy to all.Many roadblocks attempted to hinder his goal of making people smile - a childhood listening to country music, a multi-year career shoveling coal into the eternal pits of hell (or an oil and gas service desk job, but whatevs), a failed marriage to a rutabaga named Ethel, John Mellencamp - but Lloyd could not be stopped. Drawing comics, doing impersonations, reciting Monty Python and some stand-up comedy ventures were just a few bullets in his arsenal oflaughs. Puns, though, were, and are, his bread and butter. Read on for more about the world of this man... nay, legend.

Flintstones Jetsons Jurassic Park theory.jpg

The Flintstones/Jetsons/Jurassic Park Theory

There’s a theory that posits that the Flintstones and the Jetsons exist in the same reality. There are slight variations, but they all more or less work on the premise that an apocalyptic event forced people to live in the sky, and those that were left behind had to rebuild society from scratch. The “sky people” would go on to great technological advancements, and the “land people” are left to fashion a society akin to prehistoric times. Interesting, yes, but what if there’s another addition that expands on the premise even more? Friends, I present to you the Flinstones/Jetsons/Jurassic Park theory. It all begins with the “Jurassic World” films. In those films, the dinosaurs have been brought to the mainland, and now humanity is coexisting with the prehistoric beasts. That is the current status quo. Now let’s say the dinosaurs start tipping the scales in their direction for dominance of the Earth. THAT could be the “apocalyptic event” that pushes people into living in the sky. But not just any people. No, we’re talking the highly educated, professional, and elite, the ones able to fashion a society that is elevated above the clouds. Without the encumbrance of dinosaurs and the common masses, they are able to focus on technological advances. The common masses, then, are left behind to deal with the dinosaurs and craft out a way of living. There are no more technological advances as the folks behind them are in the skies above, so the current items we take for granted eventually die out. But “life finds a way,” and man not only begins crafting rudimentary infrastructure, but slowly begin to train the dinosaurs as resources. Time goes on, and as generations go by the genetic pool of both civilizations averages out. The sky people have their commoners, and the land people develop class structures. The land people still only have access to limited resources, but are able to fashion phones, cars, televisions, etc. out of the resources that are available to them and plentiful: rock… and dinosaurs. That’s right. Humanity over time has trained the dinosaurs to perform various functions. Pterodactyls are used as airplanes, brontosauruses as excavation tools, apatosaurus’ as buses, and some dinosaurs have become pets. Absurd? Possibly, but there is a common connection: Universal Pictures. “Jetsons: The Movie” was distributed by Universal, as was the 1994 film “The Flintstones” and the films of the “Jurassic Park” franchise. Yabba-dabba-true. Trust me.

Who's the Narwhal?

The Story of Noddy the Narwhal

Somehow, the topic of "narwhals" came up in a random conversation with a coworker. She didn't believe they were real - mainly because I used to (?) make crap up. Luckily, someone in the office had an encyclopedia (like a tactile Google, kids), and sure enough, narwhals are real. A nice person would have left it at that. Not I. I created "Noddy the Narwhal" and made a children's book for her, one that involved Noddy accidentally impaling Neil Sedaka and putting on a Neil Sedaka mask so that his friend wouldn't be sad. But she was now sad because her friend Noddy wasn't there to meet Neil Sedaka. He's about to tell the truth when suddenly, Neil Sedaka shows up! It turns out that Noddy had impaled a wax figure of Sedaka that was on its way to Madame Tussaud's, but accidentally fell off the boat. Noddy came clean, sad that he had lied but didn't want his friend to be sad. His friend called him a "silly narwhal", all was forgiven, and they had a wonderful time together. From there, Noddy took on a life of his own, appearing in books for birthday parties, company Christmas parties, and, most importantly, a wedding - the one between myself and "Noddy's friend" Kimberley, the coworker who inspired Noddy in the first place.

Though an odd looking creature, Gonzo takes pride in his uniqueness and enjoys every adventure he goes on with the Muppets including the occasional space voyage. Rowlf the Dog is the Muppet’s resident piano player. One of the Muppets oldest characters, Rowlf rose to stardom by first plugging advertisements for his favorite dog-food brands on the original Muppets show. Rowlf the Dog is not the trusty Muppets sidekick always ready to help Kermit the Frog, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, and the rest of the Muppets. Animal is the wild drummer for the almost-legendary band, Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem, who are the regular performers traveling with the Muppets. Animal is the official musical Muppet. Known for his outrageous style and unclear speaking voice, Animal is a crazed percussionist with three music style - loud, louder and loudest. Pepe the King Prawn, lovingly known as Pepe, comes to the Muppets from Spain. Pepe moved to Hollywood to pursue his one true calling show business. Peep’s strong spanish accent makes it difficult for him to be understood. Not one to leave the Muppet Lab too often, Beaker is the accident-prone assistant to Dr. Bunsen Honeydew. Though often difficult to understand, due to his “Meep”, Beaker is known among the Muppets as the one who always gets hurt. When the Muppets made it big, they needed to hire a fool-proof security guard. Thus, Bobo the Bear became head of Muppets security. Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker are the resident scientists of the Muppets experimenting away in the Muppets Lab. Bunsen is always eager to show off his latest scientific discoveries to the Muppets. Fozzie Bear is the world’s funniest—and only— stand-up comedy bear. From his beat-up hat to the “wocka wocka” that punctuates his punchlines, Fozzie is an “old school” comic. His jokes aren’t always great, but they are delivered with heart and Fozzie’s signature pazazz. Miss Piggy is the ultimate diva, leading lady, fashion icon, star of stage, screen, and all media known and unknown in perpetuity throughout the universe. Miss Piggy has an appetite for the good things in life, including chocolate, jewelry, awards, and above all, her one true love, Kermit the Frog. Kermit is the world’s most famous frog, but he has never let international success go to his head. Arguably one of Jim Henson’s most famous Muppet creations, Kermit the Frog has come a long way from his home, the swamp, to become one of TV’s most beloved characters.

Monty Python: The Parrot Sketch & The Lumberjack Song movie versions HQ

Anecdotally, I once found myself IN this pet shop. It was in the Caledonian Road, North London. I wandered in - I was passing and needed something or other - and realised it looked familiar. Then I saw the signed picture behind the counter. It was a still of John and Michael in that "very boutique". The shop-owner explained that when they'd done the bit on TV, they'd HAD to do it in the studio - for the audience reaction. But since this was for the FILM ("And Now For Something Completely Different") there would be no live audience. And with the superior definition of a film, a set just wouldn't MAKE it. Real pet shops have CLUTTER. And so they'd gone and found one - HIS. I don't know if the shop is still there - if it is, the guy has probably made more money letting people be photographed there (like on the crossing outside the Abbey Road studios) than he has selling Norwegian Blue parrots! p.s. xmichelledd asked me if I'd post the following URL - for good karma! I've checked it out and it is what she said it was - a huge DVD set of ALL the Monty Python sketches, on Amazon - so fair enough. The URL is: http://urlsnippy.com/CompleteMontyPython?it=ndqsdd But please note: Amazon are only able to ship to certain countries - however, if you live in one they DON'T ship to, you should still be able to find a NEW example of this set on EBAY - whose merchants can usually ship ANYWHERE. Just AVOID their "third-party" shipper - "Channel Advisor" - and use the merchant's OWN shipping service. Good luck.
