To Howard: On some of your posts you've mentioned that you're really into early 1970's soul. (Me too!)  :) I was just wondering--do you have the Rhino 6 CD box set called "Can You Dig It? The 70's Soul Experience?" If not, I very highly recommend it. It is AWESOME!



No unfortunately,I don't. :( But,I do have good amount of funk,soul and disco in my collection. :)

That sounds like a great compilation, AL-B!  I may have to look for that myself.  :)

Thanks for the invite Howard, that's so nice of you, but now is definitely not a good time for me.  I'm having some health problems and really don't want to stray too far from home.  In fact by the time the week is over, I feel like I've been hit by a bus.

If not asked already, Vile, where does your signature come from on the bottom?

If anybody wishes to ask me a question, I will be delighted to answer it (as long as it's not maths or geography - I am pretty rubbish at both  ;D).

LyricBoy, where does your sig come from? 

Bobby, what kind of music are you most interested in?

If not asked already, Vile, where does your signature come from on the bottom?


It's from a song called "New Europeans" by Ultravox, from their Vienna album. Excellent track and excellent album!! ;D

(Normally, I would have put what the lyric was at the end of it, but I forgot and didn't bother to correct it.) :)

Absolutely Vile

Bobby, what kind of music are you most interested in?


I have quite an eclectic taste, Lebeiw but I am partial to 80s music (specifically new wave, rock, chart, funk and late disco). I love 70s music (specifically rock, disco and chart). I love 60s music (chart and I don't mind the Beatles) and 50s as well (chart and doo-wop). I like a bit of country and I have been known to listen to dance music as well. I am also well schooled in 'cheesy' music (an influence from my father) - I can't help it, I love what I love.  ;D

I must say that for a youngster, you show a great music background knowledge - be proud of that. To know what is available to you and chose for yourself what you like to listen to is freedom from the masses.  :)

Don't worry, AV. Sometimes I seem to kill it off, so to speak. I started this thread (although someone else did on the old board), and sometimes I bring it back to life when no one seems to want to respond to it. I brought it back last month when I noticed that Lanie had erased her old account; since then I've wanted to ask her why she erased it; I'm kinda curious about that. ;)

No, it is from a John Lennon Poem.  I pasted it on a different board but it's short so here
it is(I am actually me, not Danoota, but I answer to it anyway)

Deaf Ted, Danoota, (and me)

Thorg hilly grove and burly ive,
Big daleys grass and tree
We clobber ever gallup
Deaf Ted, Danoota, and me.

Never shall we partly stray,
Fast stirrup all we three
Fight the battle mighty sword
Deaf Ted, Danoota, and me.

With faithful frog beside us,
Big mighty club are we
The battle scab and frisky dyke
Deaf Ted, Danoota, and me.

We fith the baddy baddies,
For colour, race and cree
For Negro, Jew and Bernie
Deaf Ted, Danoota, and me.

Thorg Billy grown and Burnley ten,
And Aston Villa three
We clobber ever gallup
Deaf Ted, Danoota, and me.

So if you hear a wonderous sight,
Am blutter or at sea,
Rememer whom they mighty say
Deaf Ted, Danoota, and me -

(sometimes we bring our friend, Malcom.)

There was no construction, but there was a lot of snow and ice on the road when I went down it. I'm still new at pulling doubles, and they were both loaded almost to full capacity, so I was doing some serious butt-cheek clenching on the way down.   :o

It's a bit uncertain at the moment. The two older ones have got annoyed with the youngest.

So Howard, what's going on with you and that girl Robin? Love? Friendship? How long have you known eachother? How did you meet? Give us the 411...

This one's for Vile...

When DM was in Seattle during the Devotional tour, my husband got to meet Martin. Trent gave him a mix tape he had in his car and I guess his pager number was on it. The next day, he got a "page" and Martin wanted to hang out with him again. So, they hooked up and Trent took him bowling in Kenmore (so he wouldn't be recognized/bothered). Apparantly, Martin's drink of choice (at least back then) was Rumpleminz...one of my favs as well. I was SO pissed that I wasn't in on that one. We were "just friends" back then (I was engaged to another guy at the time). I was at the concert, then went straight home. I'm STILL kicking myself for that. On a side note, I guess Trent apologized to Martin when giving him the tape because he remembered mixing from a DM song right into an Erasure song! Martin smiled and said it was okay... :)

Oh wow!!!!! That is so cool!!!! You should have been in on that one! I would never pass up an opportunity to meet Martin! :D I still can't believe that your soon-to-be-hubby took him bowling of all things! I just couldn't see Martin doing that, but it sounds like he enjoyed himself. It's nice, too, that Martin took the time to page him and wanted to hang out. He's always appeared to me to be a nice enough guy like that, and a lot of fun to hang out with! I'm sure it was a blast!! ;D

It's a bit uncertain at the moment. The two older ones have got annoyed with the youngest. So we're going to see if we can try to get them to get along, or failing that...we'll have to find the youngest a new friend and have two cages again. He's in a separate cage by himself at the moment as it is...

I hope things work out. I understand how fickle "kids" can be.  ;)

Thanks for asking, ktelqueen!  :)

I was born in Vancouver, British Columbia.  My family left Canada when I was a baby and we lived in many different places before I was an adult.  My husband's job took us to Hawaii and we've been here 10 years now.

Hey, whereabouts in Canada are you?  :)

Hi Howard.

Tomorrow it will be about 12 degrees celsius tommorrow - a little above average for this time of year (I think). It will be alright but no amazing.

Does anybody in America have those dancing traffic control people in the middle of the roads? Is it really a figment of my imagination?  ???

I'm afraid I have never been to America, Howard. I would love to go there one day.

Incidentally, I had a dream last night that I was talking to someone on the phone and, halfway through the conversation, he mentioned that his name was Howard. Then it clicked that I was speaking to you. Dreams are funny, aren't they?

I have no idea what we were supposed to be talking about though.  :-\\

Ahem, I hope so, otherwise the teachers would get mad at me. ;D

Seriously though..

What most us Brits call college happens beyond the age of 16, Howard. What I have done so far which amounts to that is two years at a Shrewsbury college, studying for AS-levels (which generally happen in the first year) and A-levels (which happen in the second year). After two years there, I recently (in September) started at another college, 50 miles away, four days per week, doing an HND (Higher National Diploma; some kind of classy certificate) in Music Production.

Which, if nothing else, is a good challenge for stamina!

Is that what you wanted to know, Howard? Hope that's okay!

Well, at some time in the future if you decide you want to go to college, it is never too late!

LB

I second that...I went for a total of 4 years, but kept switching majors so I technically have enough credits for a bachelor's degree, but not enough in 1 subject.  Anyhoo, now I'm going back at the ripe old age of 33 to become an RN ;)



I also went back in the my 30s. I do have my B.A. and some graduate studies under my belt and I STILL haven't decided what I what to be when I grow up.
