What does Chevy chase have to do with this?









Oh. Wait. Groooonwald. Not Griswold.

My mistake. Carry on.
 
Just an observation, apropos of nothing:

Elvis Presley: "Put the Blame on Me"
Ernest Tubb: "I Don't Blame You"
Milli Vanilli: "Blame It on the Rain"
Frank N. Furter: "But maybe the rain... isn't really to blame."
Brad Majors: "It's your fault; you're to blame!"
ABBA: "Neither you nor I'm to blame when all is said and done."
Howard Jones: "No One Is to Blame"

I just wish I could figure out what it has to do with 30s girls or 80s Irish.

"Who is to blame? . . . The girls from the 30's or the Irish from the 80's?. . . How does the song help? . . . Either way it is obvious that Ernie and the king must have known something about mountains!"

2.) What irish? . . . .

4.) Ernie who? . . ..
5.) What mountains?. . . .

1.) What girls?. . . . ANDREWS SISTERS (got their start in the 1930s... Or the BOSWELL SISTERS)
2.) What irish? . . . .HOUSE OF PAIN (formed in 1989)THOUGH THEY RELEASED THEIR ALBUM IN 1990...)
3.) King who? . . . ELVIS
4.) Ernie who? . . .. TUBBS
5.) What mountains?. . . . BLUE RIDGE (BECAUSE OF THE SONG BELOW)
6.) What song? . . . . BLUE CHRISTMAS (ERNEST TUBBS ANN'S ELVIS BOTH MADE IT FAMOUS)
7.) And most importantly. . . What is happening on July 15th, 2020 at Busse Combat???--NEW BLADES RELEASED TO COINCIDE WITH TAX DAY (OR MY BIRTHDAY--IT'S A COUPLE DAYS EARLY BUT I FORGIVE YOU)

So clearly, on July 15, Jerry is giving me an early birthday present of a (BLUE) CHRISTMAS in July (more accurately a "Blue Christmas in July-Ganzaaaaaa!!!") He's offering SISTER blue blades--one with a RIDGE and the other without. Buying both will put you in a HOUSE OF PAIN! Who's to blame? Well, obviously, Jerry.

Or could be "Smokey Mountains" since both men sang about them as well...

OH OH OH OH!!!!! It's the SAWTOOTH MOUNTAINS!!!!!

AND in the 1930s, Picasso took on a new MISTRESS, Marie-Thérèse Walter, who influenced his work extensively!!!

So the SISTER blades are MISTRESSES!!!!!! One with a SAWBACK and one plain!

I know what a soft spot Jerry has for Picasso...
 
Or maybe the Irish from the 80s is a reference to Dexys Midnight Runners, who, at the beginning of their 80s anthem "Come on Eileen" blamed singer Johnny Ray for making their mothers cry. Dexys wasn't necessarily "Irish," per se, but they tried to cultivate that image and sound.

How that might fit the rest of it is a little more difficult...

Christmas in July started 84 years ago on July 24th and 25th in 1933 at a girls' camp called Keystone Camp in Brevard, North Carolina.

https://www.southernliving.com/christmas/how-did-christmas-july-start

1) Girls from Keystone Camp in North Carolina started Christmas In July, they are “to blame”.

2) Irish from the 80’s is a myth, they did not start Christmas in July, they are not to blame. Common belief, but not true.

3) Elvis Sang Blue Christmas

4) Ernest Tubb sang Blue Christmas

5) Blue Ridge Mountains, one of the states these mountains are part of is North Carolina.

6) Song : Blue Christmas

7) Busse is having a Blue? Christmas in July on the 15th!!!!
