Yeah, I'm serious. What can I say? Nobody here's ever noticed it, I'm sure (she said as she choked on her words), but I'm a woman of many moods. Same goes for music. And I fully expect the rest of my life to extend for several decades. Gotta have the music!!

Moods? Life without would be boring. Life? Where does one get one of those? Your list? Amazing! Some big favorites (Krauss, Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs, Raitt, The Band). And some I will have to look into.

Thanks, Marsha. Well worth the wait!

ps, I threw a few more songs onto virb.

Great!! Thanks, Jeff.

For those of you who don't know what Jeff means, the following link (it's in Jeff's cpaptalk profile that displays on the left of his posts, BTW) will get you to Jeff's bio and music: http://virb.com/jeffreynelson. You can listen without downloading; on the player, just double click on a song title. You can open Jeff's music in a separate window, start the player and go back to whatever you were doing, too.

Well, as you can see, I can't be bothered to make a list, I just toss out little stupid lines now and again.

The new BF and I have been arguing a point for two months now, and I want your opinion.

I say Journey is gay. He says they're not.

Anyone else here a Journey fan? I keep telling him if he's going to listen to Journey he has to wear the little Catholic School Girl outfit and wear his hair in pigtails...

LOL,
B.

That isn 't so bad, Angus Young wears the schoolboy outfit on stage?

Babs, if you do that, You and "Wally" will lose your Enzyte sponsorship
Just keep him in the closet like all other Journey fans.

Lovin' a music man ain't always what it's supposed to be.

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my gosh... I have to send that to him...

Did I mention he used to be the drummer in a punk band?

Which, again, makes me reel that he likes Journey...

LOL,
B.

Hey Babs.....
I would have to ask what difference does it make??? I've never heard music with a sexual preference......

Queen......Freddie was an incredible incredible talent that left us too soon......
Just one

I have Journey in my collection (but I have around 1500 CD's....no Country. My wife covers that along with John Denver).

cheers

Ooops, sorry Goose. I didn't mean "Gay" as in sexual orientation. I was using it as a simile for "lame".

Not a nice thing to say at all. You're right.
B.

It seems that a correction of the record and a public apology are in order.
Okay, it was two. Deep, heartfelt, sincere apologies. -SWS was right. Again. I was wrong. Again.

Maybe one was a ribbing and the other was technically more of a prodding, or something. So let's just say that you're both right!

No worries Babs....
I didn't think it would make a difference to you, so it kind of took me aback.....
Thanks for settin' the record straight!!! (no pun intended!!!!!!!!!!! )
