    Morning campers..... Happy hump day... to all coffee is on...we are all safe.... Stanley, glad we could count on you for a spell.... Sarge you can play the harmonica on this one.... It doesn't matter what I say So long as I sing with inflection That makes you feel I'll convey Some inner truth or vast reflection But I've said nothing so far And I can keep it up for as long as it takes And it don't matter who you are If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks Because the Hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The Hook brings you back On that you can rely There is something amiss I am being insincere In fact I don't mean any of this Still my confession draws you near To confuse the issue I refer To familiar heroes from long ago No matter how much Peter loved her What made the Pan refuse to grow Was that the Hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The Hook brings you back On that you can rely Suck it in suck it in suck it in If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn Make a desperate move or else you'll win And then begin To see What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free It's so PC it's killing me So desperately I sing to thee Of love Sure but also of rage and hate and pain and fear of self And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf I've tried well no in fact I lied Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside To hide or slide I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride until I've died And only then shall I abide this tide Of catchy little tunes Of hip three minute diddys I wanna bust all your balloons I wanna burn all your cities to the ground I've found I will not mess around Unless I play then hey I will go on all day. Hear what I say I have a prayer to pray That's really all this was And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck I don't rely on luck because The Hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The Hook... On that you can rely And that's my home where dreams are born, And time is never planned. Just think of lovely things. And your heart will fly on wings, Forever in Never Never Land .....I hear they have tickets there..... ......Mr. Sulu, second star to the right, please....

    Now on K DED a dedication, our own Kristine has offered for Stanley to take the wheel whilst I kick back..... Ok Stanley, keep your emerald eyes on the road and paws upon the wheel.... Pupper...some driving music please..... Riding along in my automobile My baby beside me at the wheel I stole a kiss at the turn of a mile My curiosity running wild Crusin' and playin' the radio With no particular place to go Riding along in my automobile I's anxious to tell her the way I feel So I told her softly and sincere And she leaned and whispered in my ear Cuddlin' more and drivin' slow With no particular place to go No particular place to go So we parked way out on ko-ko-mo The night was young and the moon was gold So we both decided to take a stroll Can you image the way I felt I couldn't unfasten her safety belt Riding along in my calaboose Still trying to get her belt a-loose All the way home I held a grudge For the safety belt that wouldn't budge Crusin' and playing the radio With no mother f@cking place to go....... Night kids...... Sarge keep an eye on Stanley, he's new to this..... rrrrrrgrrrrrrr waaayyyyyy out!

    A Foxtrot dedicated to you, thanks be to Sarge..... Hit it Sarge.... Somewhere there's music How faint the tune Somewhere there's heaven How high the moon There is no moon above When love is far away too Till it comes true That you love me as I love you Somewhere there's music It's where you are Somewhere there's heaven How near, how far The darkest night would shine If you would come to me soon Until you will, how still my heart How high the moon How high the moon is the name of this song How high the moon Though the words may be wrong We're singing it Because you ask for it So we're swinging it just for you How high the moon Does it touch the stars How high the moon Does it reach up to Mars Though the words may be wrong to this song We're asking how high, high, high high, high is the moon To quote Bobby Z..... I'm gonna let you pass, and I'll go last...... And time will tell, just who has fell and whose been left behind... Thanks from the bottom of my old dead heart.... Where there's life there's hope.... I told that to Clownstoner....and it came true..... I'm goin down swinging...swinging ...like Benny Goodman!

    unless you can dance.My ten yr old son peering over my shoulder at Men without hats safety dance video (thanks Chandra for the throw back) actually said oh this is the video with the midget. I am still laughing. He actually asked me if there is a deeper meaning to this song. Then said that the whole Thing is just wrong.

You sir are risking the mighty rath of Klang. He rules from an awe inspiring rig, much like the Wizard of Oz's. Only his uses the avatar of an evil clown. Maybe you haven't seen it. Those of us who have know how terrifying it is. You have been forewarned. Just remember Mayor Klangstone has ordered that no one look behind the curtain.

Klang is Rgggrrr's alter-ego. Beans spilled. Or rumor spread? Again, beware the meds and round-number hoarders. I got no dime (or your $20 bill) but I've got some time to hear your story.

I never saw that one coming. But now that you mention it. It does seem suspicious that you never see them post a comment at the same time. I feel that this warrants furthur investigation.

Hi there and welcome to sunshiney daydreamer land! Well I don't have the official packet info in front of me at the moment, but the general gist is: *keep it friendly and positive *keep discussions generally pertaining to this group and the social gatherings being planned for Chicago, additional local happenings, the pick-a-nick and other group meetings * local info for help and aid to us all * use the other main thread for ticket discussions or save it for PMs * use the other main thread for complaints about the ticket situation if you must * be kind, rewind keep peace in your heart and get on the bus! rgergelis is driving the wheels off this crazy thing and we need enough bodies aboard to keep us balanced on the road to Chi-town. All aboard!! P.S. Mayor in name and satirical statute only. Here to help out if and when I can, just like any ordinary good citizen of dreamer-land.

From John Cash and the Carter family..... Oh well I'm tired and so weary but I must go along Till the Lord comes and calls, calls me away Well the mornings so bright and the land is the light And the night, night is as black as the sea There will be peace in the valley for me someday There will be peace in the valley for me, Oh Lord I pray There will no sadness, no sorrow, no trouble, trouble I see There will be peace in the valley for me. Well the bear will be gentle and the wolf will be tame And the lion shall lay down by the lamb and the beasts from the wild shall be led by a child And I'll be changed from this creature that I am There will be peace in the valley for me someday There will be peace in the valley for me, Oh Lord I pray There will no sadness, no sorrow, no trouble, trouble I see There will be peace in the valley for me.
