Kathy...read what hiway29 and I posted. :) Like I said, though, something strange about a couple buddies dressed up in drag with fake bosom's. Rick

I know what the show is now, but I never watched it. Just something about 2 guys that dress up as women, no matter what the reason...well just seemed kinda gay to me. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. :D Rick

Shshi...edit your post and repace ftp with www and it will work. Rick

Oh yeah? Well, DREAM ON dude, if you think I'M gonna give more clues! Rick

Named after the same country that gave us the GOOD pot back in the 70's. :) Rick Since we have a theme going here...ok, I'll play! :) What is THIS ONE? I HATE it when it combines my posts into one. :(

GreaasyTech, Yeah, they kind of have some similarities. George...I onlly see That 70's show in reruns in the early evening usually. I didn't know Foreman had left the show. How did they handle that, since most of the show takes place in his basement? I didn't even know that Tanya Roberts was a regular...only saw her in 2 episodes. I tried to find a picture of her to post, but didn't see to many "G" rated ones. (Not that I didn't enjoy the ones I found, just don't think they are suitibale for posting here. :)) Now if THIS person leaves, the show is over for me. :D

Man, that is SO last century Sudo. :)

Looks like a lot of you knew Airwolf. But only George seems to know the other one. Sudo left an excellant clue on the second one though, even though he googled it. :)See the second one is nostalgic for me because of the time it's set in. I was just that age at that time and well, hanging out and smoking pot was about all my friends ever did.. Not that I ever partook, of course. Rick

OK, since this IS still the nostalgia thread... :) THIS was a tv show from the 1980's. Not a bad show. Not a GREAT show, but not a bad one. The next one is one I posted a few months back that no one ever guessed and it kinda got lost in the shuffle. When it comes to nostalgia though, this is a totally cool show. Like, it's a real groove man. :) Click HERE! Now, I'm off to set up a DNS server! Rick

hmmm.....best I can tell someone is calling someone a son of a goat. :unsure:

George, please don't speak in tongues without interpreting. :D Rick

Now why the heck would I be offended? I mean, come on...I like George Jones. Now THAT to some people is REAL offensive. :) I check in every day, but just haven't had much time to find and post songs. However, it's almost winter, and as you will recall, that is when I spend most of my time working at home. So in the comeing weeks, I'll be here more than I have been. Man, how long have we been doing this now? 3 years? 4 years? I honestly can't remember. But I don't think it will die soon cause, ya know, the make new movies and tv shows all the time! And they all got theme songs. :) By the way, I agree with you about the grammy's. I honestly don't see how rap can win grammy awards. They don't sing, they don't play instruments, yet they call it music...WHY??? Rick

Wow Sudo, you've never heard Norah Jones? Well, I just HAPPEN to have some of her stuff. :) THIS is my favorite, but THIS one was on the radio a lot. Rick OK, the second one was NOT the one I meant to send. The right one is uploading now...give it a minute or 2. Rick

No, and thank you for that. :) I guess I just don't see Oldies as being that shallow. I have seen (read) him say more than once that he doesn't doubt the bad things that happened to a lot of people...he just says that HE didn't see it. I could say the same thing, to be honest. I never saw any of the horrors that others here have. That doesn't mean that I don't belive they happened though. I have no doubt that the stories I've read are true, and I thank God that I DIDN'T have to see them first hand. Oh well, just my thoughts on the matter. Peace!

First off...Goey, that was a little rude, don't you think? I mean, some of you act like you think Oldiesman is some kind of ogre or something. OK, everyone feel free to flame away now. As far as things being tolerated or not when you did the wow thing, I am sure that things happened that WERE tolereated. But I know of one case where a person was sent home from his wow year for having premarital sex. He met a girl and witnessed to her. They started having an affair and when leadership found out about it, they gave him an ulitmatum. Break it off and quit seeing her, or get sent home. He was counselled that premarital sex was wrong according to the word, and he was given the choice. He chose to go home. It happened to someone I knew very well, but I will not give his name out of respect for his privacy.

I think the singer is Peggy Lee. Rick I may be wrong. Can't find anything on Google about Peggy Lee singing Paper Moon with Benny Goodman. I know she did other stuff with him though. Oh well, out of time for now...gotta get back to work. Rick

Ah, Leadbelly! Great choice Sudo! Thank's for posting it! It's also kind of cool that you posted Goodnight Irene because there's a real interesting story about the song on the flip side of that record! from http://leadbelly.lanl.gov/leadbelly.html : Huddie William Ledbetter was born on January 29, 1885 on the Jeter Plantation near Mooringsport, Louisiana. He was the only child of his parents Wesley and Sally. Huddie and his parents moved to Leigh, Texas when he was five and it was there that he became interested in music, encouraged by his uncle Terrell who bought Huddie his first musical instrument, an accordion. It was some years later when Huddie picked up the guitar but by the age of 21 he had left home to wander around Texas and Louisiana trying to make his living as a musician. Over the next ten years Huddie wandered throughout the southwest eking out an existence by playing guitar when he could and working as a laborer when he had to. Huddie Ledbetter was the world's greatest cotton picker, railroad track liner, lover, and drinker as well as guitar player. This assertion came from no less an authority on the matter than Huddie himself. Since not everyone agreed with his opinion Huddie frequently found himself obliged to convince them. His convincing frequently landed him in jail. In 1916 Huddie was in jail in Texas on assault charges when he escaped. He spent the next two years under the alias of Walter Boyd. But then after he killed a man in a fight he was convicted of murder and sentenced to thirty years of hard labor at Huntsville, Texas' Shaw State Prison Farm. After seven years he was released after begging pardon from the governor with a song: Please, Governor Neff, Be good 'n' kind Have mercy on my great long time... I don't see to save my soul If I don't get a pardon, try me on a parole... If I had you, Governor Neff, like you got me I'd wake up in the mornin' and I'd set you free Pat Neff was convinced by the song and by Huddie's assurances that he'd seen the error of his ways. Huddie left Huntsville a free man. But in 1930 he was arrested, tried, and convicted of attempted homicide. It was in the Louisiana State Penitentiary in July 1933 that Huddie met folklorist John Lomax and his son Alan who were touring the south for the Library of Congress collecting unwritten ballads and folk songs using newly available recording technology. The Lomaxes had discovered that Southern prisons were among the best places to collect work songs, ballads, and spirituals but Leadbelly, as he now called himself, was a particular find. Over the next few days the Lomaxes recorded hundreds of songs. When they returned in the summer of 1934 for more recordings Leadbelly told them of his pardon in Texas. As Allen Lomax tells it, "We agreed to make a record of his petition on the other side of one of his favorite ballads, 'Goodnight Irene'. I took the record to Governor Allen on July 1. On August 1 Leadbelly got his pardon. On September 1 I was sitting in a hotel in Texas when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I looked up and there was Leadbelly with his guitar, his knife, and a sugar bag packed with all his earthly belongings. He said, 'Boss, you got me out of jail and now I've come to be your man'" In 1935 Lomax took Leadbelly North where he became a sensation. Leadbelly remained Leadbelly. After hearing Cab Calloway sing in Harlem he announced that he could "beat that man singin' every time". His inclination toward violent resolution of conflicts, though mellowed, lead to threatening Lomax with a knife which effectively ended their friendship. Nevertheless by 1940 Leadbelly had become well known in the recording industry. Over the next 9 years Leadbelly's fame and success continued to increase until he fell ill while on a European Tour. Tests revealed that he suffered from lateral sclerosis and he died on December 6, 1949. Adapted from the liner notes to "Leadbelly, Alabama Bound" by executive producer Billy Altman, on RCA Records. Now I don't know about the rest of you, but in my opinion anyone who can sing his way out of prison twice must be pretty darn good. :) Rick

Well thanks everyone! Hey, didn't someone say once you hit a certain age, you get to start counting backwards? :) Yeah dude, it's like deja-vu all over again! :lol: Rick

Well, the english translation of the name of the flick is "red mill" I liked the Police version of the song. Rick

Thank you Mark. I had my volume all the way up and almost jumped out of my chair when it started. :) Rick

Allan, take that God Damned background sound out of the previous page! I take that back...read the source wrong. Mark, take that sound out! It's way too annoying.

Hey Loretta...your hot! :) BTW, how ya been Krys? Long time no talk!
