Favourite Blavat story is when he asked Scarfo to kill Hy Lit and Scarfo just put him off by saying he'd "think about it".

Cabert is the guy Joe Pesci got that "Funny how? Funny like a clown?". He actually put the young Joe Pesci through that routine in real life, poor guy.

So K for strucK out + Robert = Cabert. Neato. I like how the C turns into a K.
Instead of trying to find the sense, maybe these explanations are more like Zen koans. Contemplate them, let go of attachment to the ego and its instruments like logic, and allow the mind to empty. Guys like this achieved a level of enlightenment, I’m sure, that matters a lot more than merely “making sense”.

Reminds me of this old crackhead in my neighborhood named “Radio”. He used to roll around with a shopping cart full of shit to sell when I was a kid. And we used to always ask him “Yo, Radio, but why they call you Radio??”. And he’d get agitated and yell “They call me Radio because every muthafucka out here know me!! Everybody know I’m Radio!!”. Every time lol. Some people are clearly operating on a higher level than us mortals.

Never heard of this movie. What’s hilarious is that the “Radio” from my neighborhood was called Radio years before this movie came out in 2003. Maybe they ripped him off! Though our radio was a crackhead and not a mentally disabled youth.

You know, a totally logical explanation.
You're not gonna believe this, he killed 16 alligators. Guy was a radiator installer.
LOL

Second best.

The origin of "Cabert" is the best.
Ok. I’ll take the bait. WTF is “cabert”?

Thanks B. I think.

Here's a fun interview with Frank Friel off to the side giving him the evil eye.
