"(One Toke Over the Line) was performed in early 1971 by Gail Farrell and Dick Dale on The Lawrence Welk Show, which Brewer credited with giving the duo "more publicity than we could pay for." Welk described the song as a "modern spiritual" and later blamed his network ABC for forcing him to incorporate the song into the show, which would be a factor in his leaving the network that year."
And-a-one-a-and-a-two-a. I guess Old Lawrence thought the reference " Sweet Jesus" made it a spiritual song and had no idea what toke meant. Actually, by 1971, Welk was living on borrowed time. That was part of the acid rock/psychadelic music decade. Who the fuck wanted to listen to polka music, other than the old geezers?

Vlad the Impaler a/k/a Fat Dracula is back again to torment us.
Well, looks like this one is over already. Quick one today, eh?
Hopefully, this is the end of Stanton & the Yankees. He can take over LeMahieu’s dead money slot next year. If there is a next year.
Another RISP failure by Chisolm. Please let him be somewhere else next year.
At least it looks like he's been instructed to NEVER challenge a call again.
The Martian is a liability in LF, but they're playing Hideous Ramos?!?
And batting him 3rd?
🤡🌏
Jizz had the ball squirt out of his glove.
They have Volpe playing 2B in AAA.
I don't care if he doesn't hit.
Arias was 3-6 in a double header for somerset.
Have him play 3B.
How about a hit already?
Howabout a no-hit already?
Not to differ with you Mr Firefly but that would be a bit more memorable …
Jazz actually made a good play.
Impossible
Impressive
Boy o Boy Cease sure radiates calm confidence out there on the mound.
Wrong team.
Exactly
Jazzed
More clutch hitting
Lombard doing a Volpe…
Maybe the “clutch hitting” will continue
Garcia comes through.
Would have been better if Hideous was on base.
Spiderman
Spiderman
Does whatever a
Uh
Uhm
Like you know
Chisholm can
That was some feeble loser shit.
Ouch

Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over the line...
Another day, another injury. Ah, well.
No, the Geek GM is responsible for the torment. He brought in no hit Ramos and teh manager insists on batting him third in the lineup, daily.
