This is just such a great line. From such a great song.
In case you haven’t seen it, watch the Chattanooga Choo Choo (from 1941) with the full Glenn Miller Orchestra, topped by the Nicholas Brothers’, Tex Beneke, Paula Kelly and the fab Modernaires. And then tell us which scene in your opinion is the most outrageous one!
Gotta keep it rollin’ is such a great line because it captures the meaning of life (no, it’s not 42 – as the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Universe is erroneously reporting).
Another beautiful day. Check out the lads on the beach in Dollymount. Walking on water (with their bike:). Where else in the world would you want to be on a day like this?
Shovel all the coal in. Gotta keep it rollin’.
PS: Thanks for the great company in Dollymount today, the brilliant home made ice cream for Pádraig, and to the two visitors who came in tonight to see Pádraig. We had a full house and that’s the way he likes it to be. Living. Life. In company.

The answer to the great question of life is actually “42”. The real issue is: what is the great question of life?
Douglas Adams has theorised that it is in fact simply, “What is 6×7?”
I appreciate what you’re sayin’. But with the greatest respect to the great Douglas Adams: he got that one wrong! The question is not ‘What is 6×7′, and the answer is not ’42’. The big computer and Douglas both got it wrong. The answer is ‘Gotta keep it rollin’. I’m still thinking about the question, but it’ll come to me, no doubt, any time soon.
Maybe the question is “Whatcha gotta do in life?”
Thank you, Oisín!!! Who needs ‘Deep Thought’?
