. . . recently reported that this segment of a 1961 Bullwinkle Show actually is responsible for the most singable song on the Beetle's (a mostly forgotten boys band from the 1900's, whose very name is not recognized by this site's spellchecker) White Album, "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill." A now discredited tall tale alleged that the song was based upon a clueless American staying at a Swami's resort in Asia at the same time as the Beetles. However, National Geographic's researcher learned that such a person never existed in Real Life. What actually happened was a bored John Lennon stayed up late one night to watch the latest American cultural programming, just arriving at this backwater tourist trap. When he saw this film about a cringing Cody futilely pursuing the title of "Bunny Bill," and high-tailing it away from a herd of "buffalo" or bison without firing a shot, the song virtually wrote itself, the late Lennon later told George and Ringo.
