For Darth Vader, license to kill, Darth takes a journey back in time, with a study of 19th and 20th century earth, which he prefers to call "wart", in tribute to the "wart-born" Mark Twain, in his Letters from the planet wart". Along with Pudden' Head Wilson, one of two books that forced twain to disappear, for many year's to come back with his famous "the rumor's of my death have been highly exaggerated". Of course, in 2024 Darth was young and wore no helmet, today you get to see a younger Darth Vader, in his imperial service, with a license to kill. Or, the lighter side of the dark side".
It is rather humorous, as I pick songs and refine today's stand up, to think of the expression "biting at the bits", a race horse term, when portraying Darth Vader "License to Kill". First there's no place to attach the bit's of a horse's rein on Vader's helmet. Second, the word "horse power" comes to mind, and this is truly irrelevant to the power of the force and the dark side. How much horse power is in the lifting of Luke's ship by Yoda? This just goes to show you how different the force and the flesh truly is. For us, in this distant past of 2024, our flesh must be similarly compared to our souls and our spirits as we are not even young Jedi's as a society.
Today, I debut a new standup: Darth Vader, "License to Kill", or the "lighter side of the dark side". I have a pretty natural Paul Robison, James Earl Jones voice, so I hope this adds a bit to the delivery. No ghost writer's, so the jokes lay upon me. I have been looking forward to this standup, ever since it occurred to me about a week ago, which makes it the best rehearsed podcast to date. I will sing one Paul Robison song, A Hoyt Axton song, rewritten for Darth's benefit. Pulling out the keyboard and flute for a rare time, Edvard Greig will join in the humor of the day.
"Most people don't think I have a sense of humor. They don't see that behind this mask, I am continuously holding back laughter. It's not just my schadenfreude* side, It's just that if my men knew that I had a funny side, I'd have to kill them all". Yes, a famous Star War's quote that didn't even make the director's cut. By the time I air the podcast, I will probably come up with some additional jokes and tunes. I hope you all tune in and enjoy. Omar Bailey
Along with my best attempt at a Russian version of a famous Paul Robison song, the skit's include a brief tribute to first "license to kill" Sean Connery, Sith on the roof, Zip A de do dah, Hard hearted Darth Vader, Mama don't let your baby's grow up to be stormtrooper's Darth stardust, You're a mean one, Darth Vader, and finally a Russian and a spiritual tribute to Paul Robison.
*schadenfreude, the emotional experience of pleasure in response to another's misfortune. Schadenfreude is a German word that combines Schaden, which means “damage,” and Freude, which means “joy.” The concept is common to people across cultures, but some languages do have comparable words. It is said to occur in people or societies that lack empathy.
Other psychologists have described schadenfreude with four context categories: aversion, injustice, identification, and compensation. With aversion, there is first a feeling of dislike toward another person, and when that person experiences misfortune, one feels pleasure. With injustice, a person feels pleasure when observing a deserved punishment. With identification, a rival’s loss boosts one’s social identity. With compensation, one’s own misfortune occurs first, and when another person experiences the same misfortune, one feels pleasure. .
