my bastion for sanity.

[northzax]

29. in a galaxy far, far away?

nah, you must be referring to Don MacLean's overwrought opus major.

[Shine]

34. yup.

:D

[WritingIsMyReligion]

31. I can still remember how that music used to make me smile.

And I knew, if I had my chance, that I could make those people dance, and maybe they'd be happy for a while. But February made me shiver, with every paper I delievered; bad news on the doorstep; I couldn't take one more step. I can't remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride, but something touched me deep inside, the day the music died.

All from memory, too. :D

Don McLean, "American Pie," 1972.

[Shine]

35. Good job, WIMR!

:yourock:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

39. Ah, but I missed one word.

I said "make me feel" instead of "make me smile." But for the rest I was right. Two years ago I could sing the whole song from memory, and I still know most of it, only I get a little messed in the middle.

[Shine]

42. You're forgiven.

go and sin no more. :D lol.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

[WritingIsMyReligion]

49. Well poop-de-doo.

:P :P

Joking. I'm not in any means dissing Joni. I'm just not very familiar with most of her songs. I knew I'd heard the line before, though; I just didn't know its song.

[Shine]

58. It's cool. I'm sure you must know tons and tons of songs I've never heard of

you sweet young thang. :hug:

[Turn CO Blue]

91. and I can add Ben Affleck. There's something wrong with this

(meaning I'm a Matt Damon girl - you know the way they used to ask if your were a Betty or Veronica guy or a Ginger or Mary Anne guy - well, in the question, "Are you a Ben Affleck or Matt Damon girl - well, I loves me some Matt).

DH shares a birthdate to the hour with Jim Carrey.

[Shine]

109. heh, Matt's a cutie, I'll admit.

Jim Carrey is a real character, too. My now 5th grader dtr did a report on him when she was in the 3rd grd and I learned some interesting things about him.

I'm a total sap, just like you. :hug: :loveya: :pals:

[Turn CO Blue]

62. What you gon' do with all that junk?

[WritingIsMyReligion]

75. All I can think of is Black-Eyed Peas, "My Humps."

Please, please tell me I'm wrong. :cry:

[Turn CO Blue]

78. Not wrong. I only posted it because I just saw the spoof done

by Alanis Morrissette. A clear case where the spoof is hysterical because the original is just so dumb.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

80. Ah man.

:cry::cry:

[Turn CO Blue]

Kristoffer "Kris" Kristofferson (born June 22, 1936) is an influential American country music songwriter, singer and actor. He is best known for hits such as "Me and Bobby McGee", "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", and "Help Me Make It Through the Night".

245. "Duncan" by Paul Simon

I really like that song. It has a cool feel to it, and it reminds me of the theme of "The Boxer" mixed with the music of "El Condor Pasa", but it stands on its own at the same time.

[chieftain]

249. Its one of my favorites. Other great lines in the song:

" My father was a fisherman, my mother was a fisherman's friend and I was born in the boredom and the chowder"
" I told her I was lost and she told me all about the Pentecost and I saw that girl as the road to my survival"

[Seabiscuit]

275. Shut up, Annie, we think you're a nothing, and crazy, too! (Ann Coulter parody)

http://bootnewt.hostingzero.com/anniscrazed.htm

ANN IS CRAZED
Dedicated to looney right wing columnist Ann "Thrax" Coulter
(Sung to the tune of "Maggie May" by Rod Stewart)
Parody lyrics by Boot

MIDI music: http://bootnewt.hostingzero.com/midi/maggiemay.mid

(instrumental intro)

Shut up, Annie, we think you're a nothing, and crazy, too!
We all remember you are screwy, and a crackpot fool.
All liberals slandered, abused.
But you can't stand to be accused.
Oh, Ann, you're just making up lies,
Like before.
You bitch from the Twilight Zone,
On TV, won't leave us alone.
You're black at heart; a Nazi in a skirt.

You love Dim Son, who's so dim, you lie that Bush is a sage.
You right wing bimbo, you dunce; you just lie 'bout everything.
We laugh at you; you're a joke,
Like Shrub, whom we love to poke.
Oh, Ann, you're just making up lies, like before.
You bitch from the Twilight Zone,
On TV, won't leave us alone.
Attack dog role; you're insane, you just bitch and pout.

Bush's people have a friend; you lend a helping hand.
You're so looney, we've discovered
You worked undercover to throw Clinton out.
We just want to whack your head
When you say you want all liberals dead.
Oh, Annie, you shouldn't have tried, you're a bore.
You bitch from the Twilight Zone,
On TV, won't leave us alone.
You're black at heart, we can't believe the ways you've lied.

(instrumental break)

We oppose right wing collective kooks who prop up Bush the Fool.
Repeal Bush Daddy's coup, and restore our country's rightful rule.
Boot Bush's out-of-control band
Who prey upon our land.
Ann Coulter, we don't want to see... your face.
You love the First Class Fool's monarchy.
You're as blind as that Fool can be.
Though Shrub's not smart, you still love him anyway...

(long instrumental break - next lines sung over break)

Annie... you cadaver... don't show your face...
Annie... telebimbo... stop spreading hate...

(instrumental fade)
