"Session 3" by V.P. Wierwille? ;) George And of course, Runaround Sue was correct. I bet Pirate would have gotten the others, too. Where you been, bro?

Linda sort of beat me to the punch; but, yes, effect is used as a verb (though infrequently) as in "to effect a change." (I see it a lot in technical journals.) Affect as a noun is pretty much obsolete. George Note also that when a word is used as the word itself and not for what it represents, then it should be italicized or underlined.

This reminds me of a trivia question: how many NCAA (Division I) teams can you name whose team name DOESN'T end in "s"? Crimson Tide (Alabama) is one. George

You've got all the words within your two tries. Of course, you'll have to "bend" the sounds a bit to get the title. George

Sheeesh!! That was "Gitarzan" by Ray Stevens. Try THIS: I miss her lips, and the smile on her face The touch of her and hand and the girl's warm embrace. George

As Ala suggested, "The Scent of a Woman" had (Al Pacino and) a great tango, but this wan't it. George

It got a LOT of play when it came out (late '60's). One of the best "novelty" songs from a master of the genre. Moony PM'ed me to tell me the answer but that she's too busy studying to post the next clue. Raf apparently knows, but he's not telling. If no one else pipes in, I'll try ANOTHER song tomorrow. George

Don't feel bad, Kiddo! I have no idea what they're talking about, either! :wacko: George

Still not getting it. Sorry. :( George

All right. I'll post another one, then. George

Let's see... Girl named Jane Has a monkey Plays guitar George

I can't believe that Raf and I are the only ones who know this, Here's another verse, making it even EASIER: He's got a girl named Jane with no last name Kinda homely and plain but he loves her just the same Cuz she kindles a flame and it drives him insane When he hears her sing, she really does her thing It's her claim to fame, come on, sing one Jane George

"One More Repossession (And I'll Be out of Debt)" by Perfect Stranger. (See my post in teh "Name that Tune" thread for the lyrics. I had to stop dancing, I was laughing so hard! George

Well, they're all I can stand. All right. THIS should give it away to the rest of you: He's got a pet monkey who likes to get drunky, Sings boogie-woogie and it sounds real funky. Come on, sing one, Monkey. Your go. George

I'm not worried, unless you use BIG RED LETTERS! George

Bigamy: having one wife too many. Monogamy: see "bigamy." George

WW, You may comparing apples and oranges here (or at least oranges and tangerines). I don't know how a professional lighting system would compare with the lights my dad used to film super-8 home movies. Also, light intensity diminishes as the square of the distance from the source. So, lights four times as powerful would give the same illumination if they were twice as far away. VP's set was probably larger than my living room. George

Sox/Cards. (Cards win in 6.) George

Pirate, that means it's your turn! George

I don't know...it was pretty painful to watch! :o My favorite was the goofball with the nunchucks trying to get back up and continue his routine! :lol: George

I could have sworn I replied this morning. Must have hit "Back" instead of "Add Reply"! Anyway, it's neither "Would You Like to Swing on a Star" (though the line was probably swiped from it) nor "Rosalita" (which I doubt I've ever heard). Here are the only other lyrics that won't give it away instantly: He ordered Chet's Guitar course C.O.D. Makes "A" and "E" and he's working on "B" Digs "C" and "W" and "R" and "B" George

Moony, Get over to "Name that Flick" and post a clue! (Sorry for the commercial interruption.) George

Of course, it's hard to miss if your name is in the title of the thread! Happy birthday, Mr. Man! George

I couldn't listen to the file last night because my wife was loading songs on her ipod. I can't listen to it at work because bluzecentral.net is BLOCKED! :o However, I'm familiar enough with French to know the movie from Rick's clue. I didn't see the movie, but I seem to recall that it starred Nicole Kidman and Queen Latifah. George

Hey. Until last year, it was same old Astros. Get in the playoffs, out in one round. George And for those who point out that the White Sox haven't won a post-season series since 1919, I should mention that they were in the World Series in 1959. That was before all this divisional stuff!
