  2. well... it couldn't be Louis L'Amour because he would be blue if I thought a western writer could write music like that...

  10. So you're saying: The lid will keep a toddler out of the toilet bowl? It would seem if they're big enough to get in there then they're probably big enough to lift the lid and climb in. Put down the cover if you've got one of those running around? My covers don't run around. Toddler sucking on the rim? They'll probably suck on the seat as well then. Is putting the seat down related to bringing a used dish to the sink and rinsing it off? Or maybe getting the dirty clothes INTO the laundry basket? Why are you talking about my wife's habits here?

    Little jumping frog from Canadia: ASM 1 is Amazing Sea Monkeys 1 used to differentiate it from other ASM administrations much like we use TWI 1 and TWI 2. ASM 1 is the earliest ASM administration, the one when we OLMs (Older Leader Monkeys) were active...

    Guitar Talk

    I am out here in Socksland this week (well, a little south, Los Altos) and I was walking down El Camino Real yesterday and actually came upon some Amazing Sea Monkeys that were out here doing their missionary work... I asked them about our theories on Mungo Jerry... They were kind of taken aback, looked at each other wide eyed and began whispering to one another... it was as if I had spoken of an inner secret that "outsiders" were not supposed to know... I tried to put them at ease telling them that I was an OLM from the ASM 1 and proceeded to tell them how it used to be in the old days... Oh the fun we had sharing with each other, I tell you it was Amazing... and then they showed me a recent edition of "Sing Along with the Amazing Sea Monkeys" and there it was... number 43 in your hymnals... "In the Summertime"... It was Amazing... simply Amazing.... (my dear brother from the sock drawer: why didn't you tell me there were ASM missionaries out here in your area?)

    Guitar Talk

    I don't know how anyone could definitively pick "one greatest of all time" when speaking of guitar solos... to me it's just so subjective and (at least for me) changes with the mood I'm in as to how it effects me... nowhutahmeen? But I am in agreeance that the solo from 'comfortably numb' is one of the all time greats... and you all know that I'm a huge fan of David Gilmour so... if you ever get the chance to see him... do it!

  21. I'm still trying to figure out what Big Boy is doing with a starter and a bunch of pills! CalDreamer, is this new one a "theater released movie"?
  22. Benefit (IMO) was their best album... although I like them all about the same (and I do like them)... "they" came through about three years ago and played at the "Bass Performance Hall" here in Fort Worth (a place renowned for it's acoustics)... it was a great show... loved it... hadn't seen them since the time when "Yes" opened for them... (although the "them" this time was mostly Ian Anderson and a bunch of young guys!) I wonder if it was the same show/tour that you saw? ...and Dylan... what can you say? I loved that biopic they did about him, gave me a lot more depth and appreciation of him and his talent (and I really liked him - old stuff - before)... the last time I saw him I couldn't understand any of the words he was singing though...
