Way back in 1792, some of you might remember, Robert Burns wrote a song called "Cock Up Your Beaver". Are you familiar? I included a link.



Cock Up Your Beaver
(AKA - Johnny cock thy beaver)

When first my brave Johnie lad came to this town
He had a blue bonnet that wanted the crown
But now he has gotten a hat and a feather
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver

Cock up your beaver, and cock it fu' sprush
We'll over the border, and gie them a brush
There's some folks there we'll teach better behaviour
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver

It sounds rather dirty. 
Wonder why I've never heard of it.

    Staring Linda Lovelace.

    Overview

    Linda Lovelace (born Linda Susan Boreman; January 10, 1949 – April 22, 2002) was an American pornographic actress known for her performance in the 1972 hardcore film Deep Throat. Although the film was an enormous success at the time, Boreman later said that her abusive husband, Chuck Traynor, had threatened and coerced her into the performance. In her autobiography Ordeal, she described what went on behind the scenes. She later became a born again Christian and a spokeswoman for the anti-pornography movement.
