I usually think of either B, or someone born in backwoods Arkansas - not that that's always a bad thing.

No, I didn't: I simply never had the opportunity of watching that series

BTW, NCIS is one of the most revolting, not just shows, but THINGS *pun* I can think of... and that includes crimes against Humanity and WMDs... like TV in general.
The most puzzling of it all is how Jethro's hair and sense of fashion (or lack of it), along with Harmon's heavy make-up and Lucille-Ball-in-Mame-like outrageous abuse of soft-focus (right, they had to spill it all over the show so that they would not notice it is all because of Harmon) has not destroyed his credibility, not after ten seasons, but way before ten episodes.

Oddly, it's a weird mix of Tull, Clampett, and these guys.

Actually his last name was Bodine. He was Cousin Pearl's son. And that who I think of when I hear the name Jethro.

**purina** · November 18th, 2012, 09:13 AM

Jethro Bodeen(he wasn't a Clampett) first, then Jethro Tull, and then I vaguely remember that there's one mentioned in the bible.

**G-Lexington** · November 18th, 2012, 09:30 AM

In England the first Jethro that comes to mind is a saucy comedian from Somerset, real name Geoff Rowe, followed by the 70s flutester. Nobody seems to be actually christened Jethro, they just end up with it as a nickname.

**purina** · November 18th, 2012, 10:13 AM

So, who are A andC?

**Paws** · November 18th, 2012, 10:13 AM

That Tull guy, but I don't know how he looks like so I can't participate in the poll.

Fake edit: haha, just looked up Tull and it's actually a band, not a single guy. Must have confused it with Jello Biafra.

I think of Jethro Clampett or Bodine, or whatever his name was, from the Beverly Hillbillies TV show.

Jethro Clampett leads the list. And to Mouf's point, I lived 45 years in backwoods Arkansas, and never once met or heard of a Jethro there. It is a convenient Hollywood trope, but little else. The propensity to name people with Biblical names is real, but now rarely includes obscure names like Festus, etc.

The second thought that came to mind is indeed the Jethro from the Bible, as it is the more frequent basis for remembering the name, as I don't listen to Jethro Tull, and never ever watch CSI of those shows.

And then screw the protohistory of the modern industrialized world...

I get you get more chances to know about the guy with the funny wig if you hail from a tiny patch of land that made the industrial revolution in the shade of a big loser power, at its turn in the shade of the power that did made the industrial revolution in the big way and lead it to go global.

I hate that ridiculous NCIS show and their lame cast but yeah, he's the guy I would recall when I heard that name.

Although I worked in manufacturing, I was not schooled in it, and was a student of the humanities when in college. So, my immediate and most current references are from entertainment (The Beverly Hillbillies) and the Writ, where the name Jethro was noted for many centuries before there was an industrial revolution.

Abraham is just as valid a memory as a patriarch as Abraham Lincoln, a martyr. There is no onus on a soul to remember one ahead of another. But, as usual, you sally forth with your cultural elitism, dismissing individual experience and respect.

Ever the same.

What? cultural elitism? are you serious? really!? Christ! talk about inferiority complex... and in front of someone probably inferior to you...

GTA: San Andreas

although I don't play that game.
BTW, is it racist that I think of an African-American when I hear the name?

Before anyone do it, I'll post the possible response (self-destructive tendencies
