Butt her where first? Am I losing something through this idiomatic northern thing?

Don't you just long to feel that now? We fear so much today. Now, I only see that fearlessness in my children....and then I fear for them...why?

Well, on the day of my last exams I (very drunkenly) dived into the college pond, to discover it was only inches deep...covered in slime and with a beautifully broken nose, snot water and blood all over me, I went to the local florists and bought, from the cowering assistant, a bunch of flowers which I then took to my girlfriend's workplace and tried to give them to her...when I was removed, unceremoniously by security. She got the flowers...but lost her job. We're still married though...which says something.(thirty years later)

Wow, life is fierce on the edge. Have you ever run with scissors? Me? well, I've seen the attack ships burning off the shoulder of Orion....which was nice. Oh, and I once texted an old girlfriend

Quite....but I still love you.

Glad you liked the song. I have to thank a good friend for pointing me in its direction. Napkin rings?....I had to stop at about 9

It's only next door...Wherever you will go.

Not since the terrible accident with the 'who can hold the most napkin rings?' game.... and a fondue set Sweety...did you follow the link I posted, just for you, on the neighbouring post? Wondered whether you liked the song.

That happened to me once...we wont be going back to that restaurant.

If you want one of the best 'lost love' songs ever try this link....click on 'Ghost' http://www.myspace.com/stoneystuff Try 'Best Laid Plans' too.

Bloof...I was merely trying to save your sensitive soul from the depredations of a potentially predatory fantasist...his talk of fumbling with 'jumper puppies' just pushed me over the edge...children might be reading.

How I've missed you.

No Blue Sky - The Thorns Yup, I'm in one of those moods again...dammit. I could equally have put this in the 'Songs When It's Raining Thread'

BF You are clearly getting some sort of vicarious thrill from this thread. I, on the other hand, am proferring sound advice from the perspective of the altruistic and sexually secure savant. Please temper your incontinent fantasies with a little restraint....Blue Fish may read this!

Saucepot. Well, if he isn't going to end up playing Willy and the Hand Jive by himself I think a bit of hand on shirt action is required by about now. But, to what soundtrack? I Want To Make Free (Queen)? Love Shirts (Everley Bros)? I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coco-nuts (various)? Keep us informed of the progress (or lack of it)!

Hmmm, speaking as a 'John' myself, I can't quite see how you could ruin that line-up by including 'Jims'...especially Morrison, pompous bellower that he was. I'd ditch the Jims and add John Coltrane and...err Johnny B Goode (he could play that guitar like a ringing a bell, after all) If you were a Jim, I'd ditch the John's and Add Jim Keltner on drums and sneak in one Mr.Page on bass and rhthym guitar...he could probably keep up!

Hmmm...I'm not so sure. Even sex-crazed dork hunters know a 'scary girl' when they see one...and Bloof is seriously scary.

Somebody told me today of a place that they 'infrequently frequent'...it sort of made sense at the time...but, linguistically...it dissolves the moment you try and work out what it means.

So Floyd.....how did it go...which song did you choose? Did it work? My best result was with 'Fool If You Think It's Over' (Chris Rea's version)...front door to nookey in about 2 minutes flat (so, about 5 minutes in all then? , anticipating BF's reply here). Recently...Made Up Lovesong by the Guillemots has proved a winner. What happened? Tell us do.

I wanna comeback as a Hillbilly....would that be 'reintarnation'? (or has someone already said that? I'm not wading through all that stuff to find out)

When I'm in a maudlin mood just about anything can get my lachrymal secretions going... 'Driving With The Brakes On' (Del Amitri) nearly always gets me at the line... 'It's hard to say you love someone....but it's hard to say you don't'. Dunno why (well I do really, but I'm not telling you lot).

A reasoned...but unscientific response. It assumes that beauty is the prime motive for reproduction...it is not, it is survival. Bingo-winged chavs actually 'out produce' the average member of the populace and it is a scientifically proven fact that people with a diagnosis of anti-social psychopathic personality disorder have more children than the average, with more partners...consequently they have a greater likelihood of taking over the world...eventually. Luckily they tend to die younger in accidents and murders...but usually they have reproduced before they do this...several times. Survival of the fattest?

The Velvet Underground's 'Heroin' was about heroin, apparently...as was White Light, White Heat. Alice Cooper's 'I eat babies, me' was a satyrical attempt to subvert baby consumption in eastern Europe and was similar in tone to the Whitesnake classic 'Slide It In', which, despite its lyrical subtlety, actually had a strong sexual subtext. Anymore homework you want doing free?

Hear hear....and, as for you Kevin... ...pusillanimous oaf that you now seem to be....what cousinry is this? If I get banned (in the land of the free) for standing up and saying that creationists, their ilk and their oafish defenders are ignorant dorks who wouldn't know 'evidence' if it crapped on their heads...then, so be it.

I don't...they are freakin' idiots.
