You guys will have to do better than that.
My reference, "Fagabeefie" is from "Midnight Madness," which I have been trying to rent for the last 24 hours with no avail.
Mikey's is tougher.
OK one hint...
The commercial is from 1984 or so, and it capitalized on the Indiana Jones fervor that was sweeping the country at the time.
OK gotta go fry some clams.
Later,
Rick

A lot of good guesses. But no one was really that close. "Ziggybumwa" translates into "Tidal Wave" Which was from the natives' language in the commercial for Tidal Wave Bugglegum back in the 80's. It was totally biting off of the Indiana Jones thing like my brother said. Anyway, more assassins for me!

No. I am taking a few days off to hang my interior doors, get someone to fix my siding, and get a new sand sled. Looks like I should be good for next weekend. The river I fish here in MA is too high, and my spot in CT is kind of low. Hopefully the time off will be just enough to let the big ones move in and get a bit more active. That's just what I'm telling myself at least. There is a bunch of bait around right now, but if I don't get my chores done you might see me on Divorce Court.
