Morning Glory - what's it mean?
John Didion
their songs - Oasis in 'What's the Story (Morning Glory)?' and Blur in
'Country House.' What does it mean? I've heard that it's another way
of saying Morning Wood (term for having an erection when you wake up).
Does anyone know if I'm right?

Yes, it's that, but i also think it was an Oasis-slam on Blur's part.
Richard Serra.
p.s. Similar to when they say "he's a boy racer" in one of the tracks.
Morrissey, anyone?

In the same phrase of "Country House", what does "jackanorry" mean?
I think it means "everything's going well."
"He's got morning glory and life's a different story
Everything's going jackanorry..."
Also, what's a "quango?" (Mr. Robinson's Quango)

Jackanorry was an old childrens story program screened on british
television about ten years ago. That line I think is about Liam.I heard
that blur use morning glory to have a crack at oasis. But why not oasis
seem to have crack at blur often enough, lately noel has been telling
people not to buy blur records on sunday afternoon's network chart on
103FM
I used to know what a quango was. I think it's a type of business or
organisation etc.

program in which small celelbs tell stories. I though that it meant
really strange or something. I'm probably wrong on the last part.
That morning glory bit was what i knew, about the morning erection.

Due to the release dates of Country House and when Oasis officially named their
album, this coincidence is nothing more than a coincidence.

a <quango> is a semi-autonomous government agency,
or something to that effect.

Jackanory was a UK TV program for children. I think it is 'double'
rhyming slang: Jackanory -> Hunky Dory.

> To...@pop3.interramp.comJackanory is a British kids' TV programme where they read a book every
week. It's just play on words of hunky dory I suppose. A quango is a
government organisation for different funds. Like a quango for the arts
or something. However they are notorious for the MP involved to squander
all the money for his or herself.
When blur mentioned morning glory they were just taking the piss out of
oasis.
I think I've made that clear!

that's right. Although it is also a kids tv show.

quasi autonomous non governmental organisation.

LSD. I don't know if this is the exact reference that Oasis and Blur
intended, but it is true. (Though don't try it at home, kiddies, as it
takes an excedingly large amount to have any effect and they have to be
ground up very fine or they will pass through your digestive system whole,
causing immense pain.)

reference to a band called Morning Glory, could this be the answer?

I'm not so certain of that since I recall hearing that the Oasis album
was going to be called "Morning Glory" last April. It was at least a
rumour.

I rather doubt it. Didn't Ruby come from the band the Morning Glories?

I believe that a "quango" is a strange and somewhat archaic british term
for semi-autonomous governmental agency, such as a public utilities
district or a water district. I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do
with reggae.

Howzit,
Jackanory was a children's story program on BBC TV a good few years
ago.
When I was a kid in the south of England, if someone was telling a
boring story or obviously making it up, the put-down was:
" Yaaawwwnnn.... Jackanory"
Interpret as you will.

Oh Richie,
Why not just be a man about it and spit it out.
A morning glory is a jolly morning stiffy. An erection. An erect penis
upon awakening.
Couldn't be simpler.

Organisation, or, in other words, a way for those with contacts to
indirectly get lucrative jobs, appointed by the government, but not
directly within the government's control. How exciting!! They are
regularly causes of scandal in the U.K.
