Bo, you don't know diddley!  

This is a catch phrase that originated in a TV ad in the late Eighties that featured super athlete extraordinaire Bo Jackson and rock'n'roll pioneer Bo Diddley (he's notorious for his famous box-shaped electric guitar). Basically, the term means that somebody doesn't know doodly squat.

The narrator says:
Bo knows football.
Bo knows baseball.
Bo knows weightlifting.
***********************
In the meantime, Bo Diddley cranks out the notes on his guitar.
Then he says:
Bo, you don't know diddley!

freedom 

1. Liberty, the ability to do what you want to as long as you're not hurting someone else. A cornerstone of the United States of America.

2. A 1985 hit for British duo Wham!.

3. Of all the hit songs that were written after 9/11 that truly expresses America's heritage of liberty, this song by Sir Paul McCartney does it best to do so without turning patriotism into money. It's by a Brit, too. Imagine that. All the other "patriotic" pop and country tunes that the damn radio has been playing are trend-chasing garbage.

1. The U.S. Constitution embodies American freedom and democracy.

2. ... I don't want your freedom
I don't want to play around
I don't want nobody baby
Part time love just brings me down
I don't need your freedom
Girl all I want right now is you
Du du du...

3. ... I will fight for the right
To live in freeee-dom...

FFFF

it's simply an abbreviation for "find 'em, feed 'em, fuck 'em, forget 'em". It's a title of some obscure porn movie.

Greg was back home, recently discharged from his enlistment time in the United States Marine Corps. He showed us some relics he obtained from when he stationed in Okinawa, Japan. One of those things was a video cassette that featured an X-rated story done in anime, with narration done in Italian. It was really quite sickening, even in the anime format. After that on the same tape came a live-action series of kinky sex acts (including cunnilingus and fudge packing) with a speed metal band playing their song "FFFF". It basically goes something like this:

I wanna find 'em, feed 'em, fuck 'em, forget 'em
find 'em, feed 'em, fuck 'em, forget 'em
I wanna find 'em, feed 'em, fuck 'em, forget 'em
find 'em, feed 'em, fuck 'em, forget 'em
FIND 'EM, FEED 'EM, FUCK 'EM, FORGET 'EM!

After that it was getting late so the party was over. I went out to the side of Greg's home. I nearly barfed.
Greg later sheepishly "admitted" that the video tape wasn't really that good.

Thank You Jerry 

A statement found on several Deadheads' vehicle rear bumpers expressing thanks to the late Jerry Garcia, singer, guitarist, songwriter and icon for the San Francisco roots rock band the Grateful Dead. The Grateful Dead disbanded in December 1995 after the death of Jerry Garcia earlier in the year.

The Grateful Dead are an American institution.
They truly loved to play rock'n'roll music as well as its roots, the band was very devoted to these things.
Thank you Jerry.

fucking A 

an exclamation usually used to mean "affirmative" or "right on!".

In 1995 or so Demi Moore starred in a movie adaptation of the book "The Scarlet Letter". In that story set in New England during the Puritan theocracy times Hester Prynne bears a child out of wedlock. For this she is sentenced to wear a letter "A" on her clothing to denote that she is guilty of adultery. That movie was panned by the critics big time. I read a review of that flick in the entertainment section of a local independent "underground" weekly newspaper. The first thing that the review said was "Fucking A"! Get it?

Bruce Cockburn 

a brilliant modern folk rock singer, guitarist, and songwriter who hails from Canada. He has been awarded the honor of the Order of Canada for his insightful contributions to music. He's been in the business at least since the early 70s. He is a Christian and his faith is reflected in many of his songs, but he never shoves it down the listeners' throats. He has traveled all over the globe, and these travels have provided great inspiration for his songs. His hits include "Waiting for the Lions", "Listen for the Laugh", "The Coldest Night of the Year", "The Trouble With Normal", "(And They) Call It Democracy", "If a Tree Falls" and of course, "(If I Had A) Rocket Launcher", which is about the Guatemala civil war where the first person declares if he had a rocket launcher he would retaliate, would not hesitate, and "some son-of-a-bitch would die".

I saw Bruce Cockburn in concert in a club in Columbus, Ohio in early 1999. Me and some other fans met him in the parking lot and talked with him for a while. He was very nice, very cool, very polite and he would gladly autograph anything you had. He autographed my ticket stub. A real intelligent and cool dude.
