Vandaag de Dipsy Doodle opgehaald bij John in Swifterbant (met een T).
Volgens Henk de Jager is de Dipsy Doodle een leuke kast. Ik ken hem niet en heb hem ook nog niet bekeken.
Maar Henk is dé EM deskundige in Nederland en als Henk het zegt..........
Over "Dipsy Doodle" en "Dipsy Bug" zijn in het verleden liedjes gemaakt.
De teksten staan onderaan deze pagina. Ongetwijfeld heeft Williams met deze kast daarop ingespeeld.
Zondag 25 oktober 2009.
De Dipsy Doodle opgesteld en even goed geïnspecteerd.
Eerst was hij helemaal dood maar toen de zekeringen vervangen waren wilde hij wel opstarten en is er licht in de kop en op het speelveld.
De 24 volts op het speelveld zijn er nog niet en ik kon zo snel niet vinden waarom.
Dus nog niet geflipperd.
De Dipsy Doodle gaat wel het nodige werk geven:
1- Het credit mechanisme is uit de kop gesloopt.
2- De kast is deels overgeschilderd. Dat valt op omdat er geel in plaats van groen gebruikt is.
3- Alle rubbers moeten vervangen worden.
4- Een paar fikse beschadigingen op het speelveld en een gebroken plastic.
5- De shooter assembly is gebroken
Enzovoort.
Maar, ik vergelijking met wat ik zoal tegengekomen ben valt het nogal mee.
Het belangrijkste is dat de kopruit in goede staat is!
Deze kast komt er weer helemaal bovenop.
Alleen nog even afwachten wanneer, want het rijtje wachtenden voor een beurt is wel groot geworden.

The
Dipsy Doodle's the thing to beware
The
Dipsy Doodle will get in your hair
And
if it gets you, it couldn't be worse
The
things you say will come out in reverse
Like
"You love I and me love you"
That's
the way the Dipsy Doodle works
The
Dipsy Doodle's easy to find
You
know it's always in back of your mind
You
never know it, until it's too late
And
then you're in such a terrible state
Like
"The moon jumped over the cow, hey diddle"
That's
the way the Dipsy Doodle works
Whenever
you think you're crazy
You're
just a victim of the Dipsy Doodle
Ah,
but it's not your mind that's hazy
It's
your tongue that's at fault, not your noodle
You
better listen and try to be good
And
try to do all the things that you should
The
Dipsy Doodle will get you some day
You'll
think you're crazy, the things that you'll say
Like
"Rhythm got I and hot am I"
That's
the way the Dipsy Doodle works
If
it gets you, you'll be singin' it
And
we'll bet you, you'll be swingin' it
The
Dipsy Doodle's the thing to beware
The
Dipsy Doodle will get in your hair
And
if it gets you, it couldn't be worse
Ev'rything
you say will come out in reverse
"You
love I and me love you"
That
is just the way the Dipsy Doodle works
Whenever
you think you're crazy
You're
the victim of the Dipsy Doodle
But
it's not your mind that's hazy
It's
your tongue that's at fault, not your noodle
You
better listen and try to be good
And
try to do all the things that you should
The
dipsy doodle will get you some day
And
you'll think you're crazy, the things you'll say
"Violets
are red, roses are blue"
Roses,
roses, roses, all around you
You'll
never know it until too late
And
then you're in such a terrible state
If
you wanna do the Doodle, do the Dipsy Doodle
Doo,
doo, doo, do the Dipsy Doodle
Doo,
doo, doo, do the Dipsy Doodle
Doo,
doo, doo, do the Dipsy Doodle
Do
the Dipsy Doodle now

(Instrumental Break)
Well,
when you think you're crazy
You're
the victim of the Dipsy Doodle
But
it's not your mind that's hazy
It's
your tongue that's at fault, not your noodle
You
better listen and try to be good
And
try to do all the things that you should
The
dipsy doodle will get you some day
You'll
think you're crazy, all the things that you say
Like
"Roll, rattle and shake alligator"
That's
the way the Dipsy Doodle works
That's
the way the Dipsy Doodle works
