Press Secretary for “The Quipping Queen”, Count Guidobaldo Le Touquet, indicated that “oodles of Boffos and Bling Blingers, Joy-Riding Jokesters and Happy–Go-Lucky Hoodwinkers, plus an assortment of Goofy Goddesses, Moxie Mavens and Spunky Sprites will have a jolly good time on this auspicious occasion!”

Dr. Thor Trewoofe, Professor Emeritus of Laughing Matters, recommended that “those with light heads and light hearts wear fanciful fool’s caps and dazzling dunce hats so as to distinguish themselves from marginally merry souls if not mirth-challenged mortarboard members of Victoria’s three esteemed Ivory Tower Institutes of Inklings.”

For just $5 plus cost of a barmy beverage (with a very long, impressive, foreign-sounding name) or a smashing snack (with a short but incredibly snooty menu label), fools may rush in and enjoy high jinks, tacky treats, and piffling prizes as well as applaud winners of some very incredulous achievements.

Billy Fury, as youve never seen him before, English Teddy answer to Elvis bear. Seen here its obvious he was a teddy bear, no question.

Look at this picture and dispel all doubts this is how real Teddy Boy gangs looked, not pale imitations that followed. These intimidate by a mere glance, and these were taken before they started drinking, and bear jiving.

Can you imagine this is not godfather of all rock and roll, Teddy Boy supreme yes, Chuck "cool" Berry.

look at these later imitations below and judge for yourself.

I rest my case, top ones are incontrovertibly true pictures showing real Teddy Boys were, originally, actually Teddy Bears, whereas these are obviously doctored digital reproductions.

There was even a group called Teddy Bears.

Elvis sang I just want to be your teddy bear, not I just want to be your rock and roll dude.

These coded messages tell true incredible story behind myths, of which even Von Daniken would be proud,

Teddy Boys were originally Teddy Bears.
