The Tanuki suit (spelled “Tanooki” officially) was a very powerful suit, first introduced in Super Mario Bros. 3. It gave the wearer the ability to fly (“now we in the wind”), kill enemies with a tail whip, and turn into an invincible statue.
This hook also borrows it’s structure from the chorus of Limp Bizkit’s seminal hit, “The Nookie”:
I did it all for the nookie, c'mon
The nookie, c'mon
So you can take that cookie
And stick it up your (yeah!)
Stick it up your (yeah!)
Stick it up your (yeah!)
Stick it up your

His hair turned grey at a pretty young age, but sintax isn’t sweating it. He knows that the Bible says:
Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is gained by living a godly life. -Proverbs 16:31

These remarks by JFK were made at Amherst College in 1963. Specifically, Kennedy was referring to poet Robert Frost, who had just died earlier that year. However, the speech also serves as an indication of the high regard Kennedy held for the pivotal role the artist plays in any society.

Nabisco’s (which is short for NAtional BIScuit COmpany) IN-ER-SEAL packing method was really a huge step forward in terms of keeping the product fresh. Previously, crackers were typically shipped to stores in large barrels, which were then placed into paper bags at the time of purchase. The ad below is meant to show that even if you have to walk home in the rain, your crackers will still stay dry and fresh, thanks to the IN-ER-SEAL pack; much better than a paper bag.
The IN-ER-SEAL technology was such an important part of Nabisco’s branding that the IN-ER-SEAL logo eventually evolved into the Nabisco logo we see today.

I grew up watching Andre, but didn’t know anything but what I saw in the ring. This is a pretty good portrait of Andre as a human. I also love seeing all the wrestlers in cartoon form.

Here we introduce the two main drivers in this convoy; Rubber Duck and Pig Pen. “You got a copy on me” is basically asking “Can you hear me?”.
Pig Pen is a reference to a transfer truck carrying live animals, so it’s reasonable to assume that Pig Pen is the driver of the pig truck referenced in this line.
In CB parlance, ‘Rubber Duck’ and ‘Pig Pen’ would be the user’s “handle” (pseudonym), used to identify the radio operator. (In licensed radio services, an operator must identify with a government issued call sign.)
