Since the other thread is not functioning and I have another question, I'll just start a new one.
Who exactly are The Lockhorns?
It's used a lot, first thing coming to mind is the couple from Deadly Bees fighting and Tom says, Geez, she'd be a little more relaxed at the Lockhorns'.

Where does the "Hey, Ron! I'm looking at your butt!" quote from "Jack Frost" come from?

Thanks for the linkage. I thought it was a comic, but I thought it was more of a Mary Worth type comic. Wasn't ever in my Sunday paper.

Where does the "Hey, Ron! I'm looking at your butt!" quote from "Jack Frost" come from? Hmm, no idea. It sounds like it could just be them giving voice to a character and having them say something silly (Normally they use "Steve" as the name, but they have been known to use others) So it might mean nothing other than what it is. Still, with all the Firesign, Marx Bros, Python, Zappa references you never know. It could have a source. Anyone want to take a stab at the Ron Riff?

I'm still wondering about "Deece". They say it alot, kind of in place of "Cool". They usually use their dumb big guy voices. I assume it's some regional term, maybe short for "Decent", but I've never heard it.

This isn't exactly esoteric, but I must ask. . . In Skydivers, during the beginning host segemt when Crow was making the "ur-anus" jokes, What was the very last thing he said before Tom Servo went away crying? I'm sorry, with all the Talking Heads music I have been listening to, my ears are bad.

Then after that he comments about, Mike, "Ooh! Did a noser!"
Who's Mrs. Carmichael? As in, "Mrs. Carmichael, put that laser down!"

Yup, Lucille Ball had a few series. In this one her characters name was Lucy Carmichael and her boss, was a balding guy with a mustache named Mr. Mooney (Gale Gordon).
That's who the gang is imitating when they do that flustered voice... "Mrs. Carmichael...!"

Almost everytime I see a church or something that looks like a church I always hear "Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to get through this thing called life." What's that from?

That's a line from a "Prince" song. But, not being a Prince fan, I don't know which one.
