Talk:Moscow mule

Copper cup
I have a Copper Cup with Moscow Mule name on both sides...BUT it has two mules kicking up their heels in between the "Moscow and Mule" name. The bottom has AMERICAN METALCRAFT CHICAGO 41. Can anyone tell me about this cup. It doesn't indicate it is from the Cock and Bull.
 * I wondered about that as well - I'd heard (albeit from a source that would be impossible to verify) that the Moscow Mule was invented by advertising execs in Chicago as part of a promotional campaign meant to push sales of a new brand of vodka. Your cup is the best piece of evidence to support this that I've heard of.Cknoepke (talk) 20:16, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Angostura Bitters
I hear this is a standard addition. But there's no mention here. What?

Garnish
I just edited the page to replace the reference to garnish with a sprig of mint with directions to garnish with a wedge or slice of lime. Every Moscow Mule I've ever been served had a lime garnish. The sidebox synopsis of preparation indicates lime as the garnish. The video shows a lime being used as the garnish. Every one of the references at the bottom of the article also referred to the drink being garnished with lime. I think it is a pretty clear case of fixing an error. William McVey 3 December 2014.

I added the bit about Mistletoe Mule w/ Garnish of Rosemary & Cranberry. this IS a thing, unsourced or not, and if I am reverted AGAIN by some overzealous teenage male, I do intend to go to the mattresses. Unless you can show sources for *standardized, authoritative* versions of ALL THE OTHER variants here then do not mess with me or with Jax Cafe where I FIRST enjoyed this ingenious variation, because it is like a Christmas Tree in a glass!

In popular culture
According to guidelines, "In popular culture" sections "should contain only properly sourced examples that are bona fide cultural references" ("In popular culture" content). I think all the listings are nothing more than trivia - merely examples of fictional characters that drank a Moscow mule. (And only one is properly sourced.) Listed below for discussion. Deli nk (talk) 12:13, 12 August 2017 (UTC)
 * In the radio play Adventures of Philip Marlow: Young Man's Fancy
 * In the book One Night in Vegas, Fletcher Ford is drinking a Moscow mule out of a traditional copper mug and uses it to seduce character Talia Perizkova.
 * In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine season 7 episode 7, "Once More into the Breach", Ezri Dax orders a Moscow mule from Quark after he offered her advice on the feelings she was grappling with for the husband of her previous host.
 * In the Better Call Saul season 2 episode, "Bali H'ai", Schweikart, a founding partner of Kim Wexler's opposing firm, treats her to an upscale lunch to recruit her, orders a Moscow mule in a copper mug, and offers her one, too. She declines both the mid-day drink, which she calls "vintage", and the job offer, but tacitly acknowledges Schweikart's message that the freedom to drink during a working lunch symbolizes the firm's larger offer of freedom to "spread her wings", in a firm unlike HHM's restrictive, unsupportive environment. Later that evening, Kim orders herself a Moscow mule at a bar, and then calls Jimmy to help her fleece a philanderer who is hitting on her.
 * In the first episode of Ash vs Evil Dead (2015), Ash walks into a bar, spots a girl sitting alone and says: "Send me down a Moscow mule and two of whatever the lady is having."
 * The Real Housewives of New York City (Season 8, episode 4) Bethenny Frankel served Moscow mules with her Skinnygirl Vodka at her birthday party in Bridgehampton.
 * In Fargo (TV Series) (Season 3 Episode 09), Officer Winnie Lopez orders a Moscow mule while bonding with "old chief" Gloria Burgle at the end of the episode.

Mead mule
Oldest alcoholic drink known to be had. (Moonshine University). made with vodka, ginger beer and topped with hibiscus mead. Enjoyed by Viking people. 2600:6C44:39F0:9840:2065:D682:816B:7ADB (talk) 13:44, 16 September 2023 (UTC)

To add to article
Basic information to add to this article (which I can't believe isn't already mentioned here, and which is something anyone reading this article would expect to find here, especially as we claim our articles are encyclopedic): the origin/etymology of the name "mule" as it relates to this drink. That is, why exactly is it called "mule"?? Is it because the liquor is said to give this drink a "kick" like a mule? 76.190.213.189 (talk) 03:08, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Do you have a reliable source in mind that would support that addition?  signed, Willondon (talk)  15:10, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Clare Imrie

Amy Elizabeth Imrie (née Pollard; 4 October 1870 – 4 April 1944), was a British heiress and one of the wealthiest women in Britain who, at the age of 37, became a Roman Catholic nun, Sister Mary Clare and, subsequently, Mother Superior of the Order of Poor Clares.

Born as Amy Elizabeth Rosalie Pollard in British Guiana, nowadays Guyana, to William Branch Pollard and his first wife, Elizabeth Anne (née Blackley). After the death of her mother, at age 1, she went to live with her mother's sister Hannah and her husband William Imrie. She was later adopted by Hannah and William. William Imrie was co-owner of White Star Line shipping, and Amy was the sole heir to his fortune upon his death in 1906, receiving income from his estate during her life.

The following year she became Sister Mary Clare of the Order of Poor Clares, eventually leading the convent as Mother Clare. In 1910 she funded the building and interior decorating of St Mary of the Angels Roman Catholic Church in Liverpool, which is known as "the Vatican outside of Rome", because of the splendid artistry displayed in its interior.

Death
Imrie died 4 April 1944 in Looe, Cornwall, aged 73. She is buried behind the High Altar at Sclerder Abbey, Cornwall, England.

Talk:Emo Philips

Marriages
This article used to say he was married to Judy Tenuta, which has since been removed. He's also had 2 other wives and is currently married to one of them. Why is this missing? Why was Judy removed to begin with?

Yeah, what the deal with eliminated his marriage info? He was married to Tenuta, another comedian, which is relevant to his career and pop cultural status. Other celebrity/comedian profiles mention this type of personal information. Interesting that Tenuta's bio doesn't mention it either. If celebrities can decide what public information can or annot be included in a profile, WIkipedia ceases to be a valid source, but rather just an extension of the celebrity's PR team. It's a bad journalism — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:6000:E48B:B600:70BB:C242:2E5D:AF9A (talk) 23:15, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Soltanec or Philips?
Why does the article use his birth name instead of his stage name, which is what he's almost universally known as? Is this a stylistic issue for Wikipedia, or just for this article? -- nae'blis (talk) 17:59, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

 * It should use his stage name and mention his birth name. Jason Quinn (talk) 16:47, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Emo has asked me to remove his birth name from this article, but I'm guessing that removing valid information is generally frowned upon. True? Is there a special case for a living person who wants a personal detail removed? Ken Laws (talk) 01:31, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

8 Out Of 10 Cats
An internet forum of people, who seem to be fairly evenly split between finding him unfunny (on the show, at least), liking him and generally being baffled by him (in fact, it seems the majority were baffled) does not count as the entire British public, nor does it mean he was poorly receieved. Unless someone can come up with more conclusive evidence of his performance being 'poorly receieved', I'm removing it. 80.6.98.250 13:02, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

That list of jokes...
As much as I enjoyed reading them, it doesn't strike me as something that belongs in an encyclopedia entry. Anyone else agree? --Foot Dragoon 02:05, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Why not?

 * A long list might be un-encyclopedic, but a couple of samples seems appropriate to give the reader a sense of his form of humor. I've therefore redone that section with descriptions of his style and a couple of representative examples, rather than a long list.CoramVobis 19:36, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

...Described by Jay Leno as "the best joke writer in America," by British comedian Gary Delaney as the best joke writer in the world, and by "Weird Al" Yankovic as one of the funniest people on the planet...

The best God joke ever - and it's mine! Emo Philips , Thursday 29 September 2005 This morning I received thrilling news: a joke I wrote more than 20 years ago has been voted the funniest religious joke of all time! In case you've missed it, here it is:

The way he talks
I saw him on TV once, and it sounded like he was mentally retarded or something. Why doesn't it mention anything like that on this page? --- Silent RAGE! 09:03, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

He doesn't speak in that high voice all the time. The falsetto is used for effect when he's on stage, and presumably only then. I've met him before while gardening; he was out on a walk and I called out his stage name "Emo! Emo!" Naturally, he came over and chatted with my mother for a bit. (Side note: I grew up in a house on the same block as his late mother's, where he would occasionally stay - supposedly, pictures of faces in his bedroom windows would indicate that he was home.) 71.155.233.148 22:23, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

I met him this past weekend. Not only is that not his real voice, but the "Emo hair" is a wig. He's got short grey hair now. RevAladdinSane 07:22, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

 * It may still be stated in the article that he performs his comedy routine in a falsetto voice for effect. -- Kainaw (what?) 04:27, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Take a look at this video . He clearly does the falsetto voice for effect, but what about that tic with his hand up near his face? Does he have Tourettes'? I'm curious. Fishyfred 01:36, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

 * He's probably half in character because he's on camera. When I met him in Boston he wasn't like that, and at the time he wasn't there for a gig. But he always does that when he's in character. Very nice guy by the way. --Dp67 | QSO | Sandbox | UBX's 18:45, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

 * It's such a notable part of his stage persona, that I went ahead and added something about it; did my best to give a well-rounded. NPOV, idea of what his act comes over like to someone who's never seen him before. 208.251.140.163 (talk)

Photo
The current photo, while fitting all the usage criteria, is not really representative of the Emo Philips that most people would recognise. Is there another photo which could also be used, something more resembling this http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/alanspach/emo_philips_comedian_6x9-72.jpg? Yeanold Viskersenn 13:30, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

I agree. I did not recognize him at all as the person on the left. I remember him as a very strange person with bangs, and an almost feminine haircut. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.72.56.74 (talk) 00:04, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Back in 1972 to 75 he used to sit down at the other end of the Downers Grove Walgreens counter from me. He had the bangs and sort of a Doctor Who thing goin' on, before the comedy success. 2603:300A:DF1:0:F9F1:F1EB:5DAB:A4C1 (talk) 21:19, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Dave

Well. The internet is a mixed blessing i guess. 95.109.102.252 (talk) 21:18, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

If anyone has any info on his appearances at the Just For Laughs International Comedy Festival, please post it. I think he has appeared twice, once early in his career, and once more recently. (it is supposedely the largest comedy festival in the world, and may have been his big break, but I am not certain) --RogueMountie 20:24, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Names
Though his name appears as Philip Soltanec at Last.fm many sites give his birth surname as Soltanek. Most sites mentioning Soltanec or Soltanek give his first name as Phil. MyHeritage's entry under Emo Philips lists other names in the following order: Phil Soltanek, Phil Soltanec, Emo Phillips.

Shouldn't his birth names appear in the lede following his stage name? Mcljlm (talk) 05:23, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

Discography of his album, listing every joke/track in album?
I'm in agreement with User:Foot_Dragoon (above). Surely, a "discography" should be the list of his albums, not the list of every joke/track on each album? It gets doubly vacuous when the tracks for his last album, being a compendium, are nothing more than a repetition of the first two albums' tracks(!) One can appreciate that someone took the time to list all the tracks out, but in the final event, it's just not appropriate.

For a reasonable example of a discography, I would look to: George Carlin's discography or Judy Tenuta's

For this reason, I'm removing the list of jokes/tracks and replacing it with the list of Phillips' albums.

I'm equally dubious regarding the exhaustive list of all Phillips TV/film appearances. For iMDb (or Phillips' personal website) this would makes sense, but even Tom Hanks' or Julia Roberts' wikipedia entries do not have exhaustive lists of their talkshow appearances.

And, little odd there's no mention of his personal life: eg, ex-wife Judy Tenuta and 3 other marriages (according to iMDB). --Petzl (talk) 23:39, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Just Another Band from L.A.

Just Another Band from L.A. is a live album by The Mothers, released in 1972. It was recorded live on August 7, 1971, in Pauley Pavilion on the campus of UCLA in Los Angeles. A notable inclusion on this album is "Billy the Mountain", Frank Zappa's long, narrative parody of rock operas, which were gaining popularity at that time.

Originally planned for release as a double LP with solos from "Studebaker Hoch" and "The Subcutaneous Peril" taking up most of the second LP in addition to parts of "Billy the Mountain" itself, and often overlooked by reviewers, this album marks an important period in the band's career which was soon ended by Zappa's severe injuries after being pushed off a stage. The song "Eddie, Are You Kidding?" refers to Edward Nalbandian, while "The Subcutaneous Peril", which ultimately became an outtake from the album, would later appear, in an edited form, on Finer Moments (2012) instead.

The album was reissued on CD with badly flawed mastering and no composition credits by Rykodisc in 1990 and repackaged with the same audio but with the composition credits restored in 1995. In 2012 Universal/UMe issued a properly remastered edition on CD.

Track listing
All songs written, composed and arranged by Frank Zappa except where noted.

Personnel

 * Frank Zappa – guitar, vocals
 * Don Preston – keyboards, Minimoog
 * Ian Underwood – woodwinds, keyboards, vocals
 * Aynsley Dunbar – drums
 * Howard Kaylan – lead vocals
 * Mark Volman – lead vocals
 * Jim Pons – bass guitar, vocals

Talk:Jewish Military Union

Names
This article describes Hatzohar as a "pre-War right wing Jewish-Polish" party, but the article describes the movement as "Zionist-socialist". Hatzohar is redirecting to Hashomer Hatzair? Were they maybe different organisations that someone has confused? According to the article, Hashomer Hatzair joined the Zydowska Organizacja Bojowa rather than Zydowski Zwiazek Walki.

 * I have no idea. I'ev read that somewhere and put into article - note however that ZZW was not from Hatzohar members only, and not all members of Haztzohar joined the ZZW, but some of foundrs of it were from that party.
 * Someone with better access to material on ZZW (in polish they are EXTREMELY rare) could try to work out a btter version)

Szopen 13:21, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * You were right. These were two different parties, it seems. I've created stub, someone more knowledgeable should correct it now! Szopen 13:39, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

A true name of ZWW is Zydowski Zwiazek Wojskowy Jewish Figthing Organization, and Związek Walki Zbrojnej - this is Polish organization of gen. Sikorsky. Lamerkhav user from the Russian part of the Wikipedia 2:03 Apr, 26 2006

 * Yup, fixed now.  // Halibutt 04:27, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Dispute
Appelbaum and Apfelbaum sound like the same person. Something seems to be amiss here. Bayerischermann 23:02, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yup, it's a mere typo, not a content dispute. The guy was Dawid Mordechaj Apfelbaum, a Lieutenant of the Polish Army. The problem is that most of ŻZW members used Polish rather than Hebrew or Yiddish, while their names are often first rendered in those languages and then transliterated back to Latin alphabet. Hence the typo, I guess. Will correct that.  // Halibutt 04:32, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Added a note on his name (the naming controversy is specifically mentioned in the article by Kledzik).  // Halibutt 06:11, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Request for Reference
A while ago, I added some references at the bottom of the article. Can we take the messages on the main page out now? Gadig 04:45, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm currently working on proper referencing of this article. Be sure I will convert the external links to proper reference as soon as it gets.  // Halibutt 06:10, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Englishing
Could we use Jewish Military Union for the article's title? Why are we getting all these articles titled by the foreign words? --Irpen 19:04, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I support this suggestion. Google Books shows that version is widely used in English-language publications (though ZZW is also common), and it is more accessible to the non-Polish Wikipedia users. Balcer 19:13, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Anyone objects to the move? --Irpen 20:15, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Agree with Balcer.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 05:38, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
