Summary[]
Gordie Tapp is the titular character, a southern gentleman resembling Mark Twain. Initially, he came out of his house to deliver a humorous bit of wisdom, only to be pelted from just out of camera range by someone holding a rubber chicken.
Later appearances had him ramble until someone handed him a package which would then explode.
