  1. I don't believe there was any harmony... there... Since you won't guess, I'll just post another section! first (opening) "verse" (minus the last line which contains the name of the song): They're selling postcards of the hanging They're painting the passports brown The beauty parlor is filled with sailors The circus is in town Here comes the blind commissioner They've got him in a trance One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker The other is in his pants And the riot squad they're restless They need somewhere to go As Lady and I look out tonight On...
  2. hey dude! Tony the Tiger I know, and Gates I know, but I don't know nothing about Asterix! I didn't really know what the horses were a clue for... but I had a start of "the great gates..." so God told me to guess that... I am only his instrument!
  3. Yes GSG!!!! LOST!!! don't you think that was a good clue? (sorry I took so long, I've been in airports and meetings all day... yes, actually working for a change!)
  4. Excathedra is posting some mighty fine points from their own "code of conduct"... it's becoming more clear, as time goes by, that the "code of conduct" was just window dressing for the masses... not to be adhered to by the BOD... Keep posting myseestorEx... if'n your fingers will hold out...
  5. It is (present tense) a very popular television show.
  6. OK... it's from 1965. It's from one of the most prolific songwriters of "our" times.
  7. ...there were a lot of "volunteers" at the ROA as well... a lot.
  8. CalDreamer gives you a clue to follow to the artist. Of course it got airplay... probably on AM radio...
  9. satori... anyone ever told you that you look like Jack Nicholson?

    Gangs

    CW: I think that post (just above) would have been better done via a PM to Dot... JMO...

    Gangs

    OK... I just read this thing... and gotta chime in (big surprise huh!)... Of course, I haven't read the parts that were deleted so I may be missing something... I seriously don't think anyone, at least not anyone who comes to these boards, likes gangs or what they represent. I think folks have a different way of dealing with the gang issues just as folks have a different way of dealing with any issue. It certainly seems that CWs method is in the minority here... and I never heard her defend gangs or what they represent. Some may have taken that from her post since she didn't advocate greeting them with a hail of bullets. We've all got issues... we all deal with them differently. Again, I haven't seen the deleted threads so I don't know if they have anything to do with the amount of "heat" generated here. "White Flight" is not a derogatory term unless you choose to make it that. It's a term used to describe a social situation... I don't particularly like it but it's just a term, a description. I didn't invent the term. It's just there. Now for the hard part... I don't know how to say it, but I honestly feel that I care about the folks who have posted on this thread. We are all prejudiced to some degree, we're human. I'd love to think that none of us like it, but it's there... because we're different and we look at things differently. We look different, we were raised different, we came from different parts of the country, etc. We've lived different lives. To deny it exists doesn't make it go away. (I said "prejudiced" not "racist")... and it appears to me that there has been a sometimes subtle, sometimes overt undercurrent of prejudice on this thread. Am I just imagining that? Have I taken things wrong or is it there?
  12. If I could make it there sweetniKa... if I could only make it there...
  13. I agree with you on both of those points... it's quite the dilemma... ...and this isn't just your plain, everyday NPO... it's a ministry that has the word "truth" in their name and purports to have the truth to guide people's lives...
  14. From arguably one of the finest albums of all time... Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood With his memories in a trunk Passed this way an hour ago With his friend, a jealous monk
  15. let me know if you need any clues... obviously it's a one word title...
  16. How is it "ridiculous"? From reading your post I sure didn't come away with a warm and fuzzy feeling that any of them were near qualified... ...and as you stated "They ALL were 'out there', and quite willingly" as all of this weird krap was being put into practice... they're turn should be over... but that's JMO. If folks continue to support a CES/STFI run by any of them I don't see how they can have any room to complain when this kind of stuff happens again...

    Guns

    I would be in favor of it one if my sister in law didn't live here! I don't want nuts to have guns. I think they forfeit their right if they are nuts...

    Guns

    Belle, making snow cones is just one of my many talents... (they don't have any emoticons with the eyebrows moving up and down like Groucho)
  19. Let's see... ObeWanKenobi Rudder Amelia Earhardt Tony Dow / Wally Cleaver got nothin'...
  20. CalDreamer, you would probably like some of the early stuff of "Marillion"... especially the albums 'Misplaced Childhood' and 'Clutching at Straws'... try them out if you haven't already...

    Guns

    She doesn't need one for a gun in the home (or on her property) does she Rascal? ...and Belle! ...do you really think I can get a job at "one of the local theme parks" ???
