    @ Trivia
    I dont really know but I would venture to guess it has to do with syringes? Or small scooters? I caught you knockin' at my cellar door I love you, baby, can I have some more Ooh, ooh, the damage done. I hit the city and I lost my band I watched the needle take another man Gone, gone, the damage done. I sing the song because I love the man I know that some of you don't understand Milk-blood to keep from running out. I've seen the needle and the damage done A little part of it in everyone But every junkie's like a settin' sun.

    Marley has always been sublime....not a bad song in the catalog.... Mr Peter MacIntosh is no slouch either as you pointed out earlier in this journey.....why do they have to die too soon? If it's love that you're running from There is no hiding place Just your problems, no one else's problems Could just have to face If you just put your hand in mine We're gonna lay all our troubles behind We're gonna walk and don't look back Gonna walk and don't look back Now if your first love has let you down There's something can be done Don't you have your faith in love Remembering what been gone So if you just put your hand in mine We're gonna lay all our troubles behind Gonna walk and don't look back We're gonna walk and don't look back If you just put your hand in mine We're gonna lay all our troubles behind We're gonna walk and don't look back Gonna walk and don't look back Places behind you There to remind you If your first love have broke your heart There's something can be done Don't have your faith in love Remembering what's been gone But if you just put your hand in mine We're gonna lay all our troubles behind Gonna walk and don't look back We're gonna walk and don't look back

    it's a measure, but I ain't gonna say of what. Stir it up is one of my all-time favorites. Ranks in one of my top-10 sexy songs (as long as we're on topic.) Your recipe, darlin', is so tasty! food references in music are sexy, 99.99% of the time. The other .01% is reserved for Weird Al.

    @stirring it up?????
    An obscure little ditty....and yes the women are smarter...smarter than the man in every way..... I treat you like a woman So treat me like a man I took you to a better place And helped you understand So don't squeeze me like toothpaste Like putty in your hands I'm gonna go away, I'm gonna blow away A woman is a woman And a man is just a fool It takes all of the heartaches And life can be so cruel Who's gonna be there when the morning comes? Head on the pillow, smiling at me I get up and make the coffee It must be love, it must be love Who's gonna be there when the morning comes? Head on the pillow, smiling at me I get up and make the coffee It must be love, it must be love I treat you like a woman So treat me like a man I took you to a better place And helped you understand Trivia question: What is the significance (referential meaning) of the band name 10cc????

    goodbye, stranger
    I was walkin' down the streetConcentratin' on truckin' right I heard a dark voice beside of me And I looked round in a state of fright I saw four faces one mad A brother from the gutter They looked me up and down a bit And turned to each other I say I don't like cricket oh no I love it I don't like cricket no no I love it Don't you walk thru' my words You got to show some respect Don't you walk thru' my words 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet. Well he looked down at my silver chain He said I'll give you one dollar I said you've got to be jokin' man It was a present from me mother He said I like it I want it I'll take it off your hands And you'll be sorry you crossed me You'd better understand that you're alone A long way from home. And I say I don't like reggae no no I love it I don't like regaae I love it Don't you cramp me style Don't you queer me pitch Don't you walk thru' my words 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet. I hurried back to the swimming pool Sinkin' Pena Calarda I heard a dark voice beside me say Would you like something harder She said I've got it you want it My harvest is the best And it you try it you'll like it And whollow in a Dreadlock Holyday. And I say Don't like Jamaica oh no I love her Don't like Jamaica oh no I love her oh yea Don't you walk thru' her words You got to show some respect Don't you walk thru' her words 'Cause you ain't heard her out yet. I don't like cricket I love it Dreadlock Holiday I don't like reggae I love it Dreadlock Holiday Don't like Jamaica I love her Dreadlock Holiday.

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.

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.
