  1. I can't believe that Raf and I are the only ones who know this, Here's another verse, making it even EASIER:

    He's got a girl named Jane with no last name

    Kinda homely and plain but he loves her just the same

    Cuz she kindles a flame and it drives him insane

    When he hears her sing, she really does her thing

    It's her claim to fame, come on, sing one Jane

  2. "One More Repossession (And I'll Be out of Debt)" by Perfect Stranger. (See my post in teh "Name that Tune" thread for the lyrics. I had to stop dancing, I was laughing so hard!

  3. Got to agree with jetc, here. I'm not a big fan of those loud-mouthed ambulance chasers on TV, but if you really have been hurt by someone, that person (or his insurance company) needs to make it right. Hopefully, the person who hit your sister was insured. One way or the other, though, I 'm definitely praying for her and her husband.

  4. Guess we should give them a hand, eh George?

    Well, they're all I can stand.

    All right. THIS should give it away to the rest of you:

    He's got a pet monkey who likes to get drunky,

    Sings boogie-woogie and it sounds real funky.

    Come on, sing one, Monkey. Your go.

  5. You guys are going straight to Gehenna in a handbasket, finding humor in the pain of your fellow man! I'm telling you, thoe Reckless and Hilarious Devil Spirits are coming after you! I'm reporting this thread to modnuthinbettertodo!

    I'm not worried, unless you use BIG RED LETTERS!

  6. WW,

    You may comparing apples and oranges here (or at least oranges and tangerines).

    I don't know how a professional lighting system would compare with the lights my dad used to film super-8 home movies.

    Also, light intensity diminishes as the square of the distance from the source. So, lights four times as powerful would give the same illumination if they were twice as far away. VP's set was probably larger than my living room.

  7. I could have sworn I replied this morning. Must have hit "Back" instead of "Add Reply"! :rolleyes:

    Anyway, it's neither "Would You Like to Swing on a Star" (though the line was probably swiped from it) nor "Rosalita" (which I doubt I've ever heard).

    Here are the only other lyrics that won't give it away instantly:

    He ordered Chet's Guitar course C.O.D.

    Makes "A" and "E" and he's working on "B"

    Digs "C" and "W" and "R" and "B"

  8. My wife had some bleeding about two years ago. A colonoscopy turned up a polyp that had cancerous cells in it. Fortunately, all the cancer was localized in the polyp, so no further treatment was necessary (except for periodic checkups). I pray that it goes as well for Robert.

  9. I couldn't listen to the file last night because my wife was loading songs on her ipod. I can't listen to it at work because bluzecentral.net is BLOCKED! :o However, I'm familiar enough with French to know the movie from Rick's clue. I didn't see the movie, but I seem to recall that it starred Nicole Kidman and Queen Latifah.

  10. Hey. Until last year, it was same old Astros. Get in the playoffs, out in one round.

    George

    And for those who point out that the White Sox haven't won a post-season series since 1919, I should mention that they were in the World Series in 1959. That was before all this divisional stuff!

  11. All righty, then. That was "One More Repossession (and I'll Be Out of Debt)" by Perfect Stranger.

    I told my boss where to get off two months ago today

    Now the bills are piling high and they're hauling things away

    They took the living room sofa the kool-aid stains and all

    Now my butts down on a hardwood floor and my back's against the wall

    One more repossession and I'll be out of debt

    But what good is a VCR without a TV set

    It's less and less depressing before they come again

    One more repossession and I'll be out of debt

    Last night I turned in early 'cause they turned off lights

    The repo man took my truck in the middle of the night

    Things are gone to pieces you know the times are hard

    When you have to use your Visa just to pay your Mastercard

    One more repossession and I'll be out of debt

    But what good is a VCR without a TV set

    It's less and less depressing before they come again

    One more repossession and I'll be out of debt

    It's getting less and less depressing before they come again

    One more repossession and I'll be out of debt

    Yeah one more repossession and I'll be out of debt

    I remember being out dancing (C&W) one night and hearing this. I had to stop dancing, I was laughing so hard!

    Try this (much easier, I imagine):

    He's got a union card and he's practicing hard

    To play the guitar

    Gonna be a big star, yeah, he's gonna go far

    And carry moon beams home in a jar

    George

  12. Two incredibly stupid things I saw after the Astros' win:

    Commentator on the field asks Clements, "Roger, when you woke up this morning, did you think you'd be the winning pitcher today?"

    Commentator in the studio: "I think Clements's stuff was better today than when he lost a couple days ago."

    How much do these folks get paid??

    George

  13. Here's the whole first verse. If no one gets it I'll try another.

    I told my boss where to get off two months ago today

    Now the bills are pilling high and they're hauling things away

    They took the living room sofa the kool-aid stains and all

    Now my butts down on a hardwood floor and my back's against the wall
