"9 more gallons and I will have me a hat"
"17 more wheels and I will have me a truck"
"51 more cards and I will be playing with a full deck"

I thought the Blues Brothers did Rubber Biscuit?

Anyone remember the name of the scit from SCTV?

Didnt the do a song with Geddy Lee of Rush Called "The Great White North?

It was a small hit around here.

 SCTV Guide (http://sctvguide.ca/)


The Mackenzie brothers and their 'Kanadian Korner / Great White North' scits were in season 3 and 4. You can get those boxed sets at Amazon and Walmart I believe.

Bob and Doug did "Strange Brew" which was a bit of an offshoot from "Great White North" as I remember.  Haven't seen it in years but it sure made me laugh ;D
