And then there is grammar to consider. HEH!

This is why I've gone from a stance of NEVER privately interpreting to recognizing that private interpretation may be the essence of communication. You can't simply learn a bunch of words in another language and think you are qualified to communicate that language properly. Communicating involves so much more than words. It's knowing how to use them, when to use them, where to use them, how to pronounce them etc. Shakespeare offers great examples. A passage I once thought I understood may have a completely different twist when understood in light of what the author was communicating. (Hour to hour becomes whore to whore.) Try THIS on for fun.

Is this, perhaps, the basis of the "used before" concept?

Might that be the reason for her omission?

Hmmmm-Which church? Is that what it says in the context? Do I need the church to tell me what "Thou shalt not steal." means? I'm inclined to agree with what WordWolf said about referencing the origin. When you read it in context, that's the implication that unfolds.

No Donovan fans here? It's Catch The Wind. FREE POST!

No sunshine, but another element of nature is involved.

In the chilly hours and minutes Of uncertainty, I want to be In the warm hold of your loving mind.

Sadly, there is quite a lengthy list of posters who will never post here or anywhere else again. Missed, but not forgotten. Life can be rather cruel at times. Enjoy life while you still can and celebrate each new day.

You got me on this one. No idea.

Uncle Harry wasn't really my uncle. Mum's the word.

Are you saying this post has you whipped?

When Will I be Loved... Linda Ronstadt's version I personally prefer the Everly Brothers version. It's more of a shuffle and has a slightly different vocal phrasing.

It sure is!

There is a listing of moderators some place. I'm not sure where. I know you may think no one believes these "things" Nathan Jr. posts. There are people who do and therein lies the irony. Curb stomp, you say? If, by that, you mean having to be reminded to play nice over and over, I guess you win. Claudette had some medical difficulties that prompted her to retire from her singing career. You can find YouTube offerings of more current Way Production endeavours if you're brave enough to go that route.

I don't decide anything at all. I am not and have never been a moderator. The rules are listed on the front page. (Well, they used to be. I haven't checked lately.) Anyway, we don't discuss politics or conspiracy theories, as many of those spill over into the political arena.

But only if they fit like a hand in an oven mitt.

I would say the "whenever" part is where discretion becomes a consideration.

Of course you can respond. Do it in a way that doesn't involve politics or conspiracy theories.

That's not what I was responding to. You can't go on a guitar players web site and insist on talking about bicycle chains. It's not the place for it. On this site, we don't discuss politics or promote conspiracy theories. We just don't. It's a simple concept.

You're crossing the line.

It's much older. Some radio stations banned it because it references drinking and sex. That didn't stop it from getting a ton of airplay, though.

Eddie and Donna ran a twig in Columbus, Ohio for decades. They were in one of the very first classes, in the 1950s. I personally knew them. They were genuinely caring people. I don't think they really knew about the depravity that was going on at HQ. Or, maybe they just didn't believe it was true. It's hard to say. I also noticed Ray and Vera Kaderly, from New Lyme, Ohio, are missing.

I'm left wondering why Ermal and Dorothy Owens didn't make the list.
