I got a kick out of that because we recieved 2 Christmas presents this year, that were essentially chochkies with "SIMPLIFY" on them. What the F?

I figured that this crap was worthy of being a collection but then, the entire joke of the "simplify" choch would be defeated and Id become someone who missed the point entirely. Im so cionfused. We should have just taken the damn things and thrown them into the ocean



mmmm hmmmm...

it's like people who buy some gadget by Ronco to "simplify" something like making rice.

a while back, someone here was saying how someone else "didn't understand, it was more complicated than that"

I just don't believe most things are as complicated as a lot of people make them out to be.

My instrument is always at the ready to entertain the courtly ladies, alas in these modern times, the instrument that most entertains the once ceremonious ladies, is not my gently weeping guitar.

Sorrowfully, I'll have to content myself with satisfying the animal needs of the fairer sex.

Nothing, they're still here. The last time I looked, there weren't hordes of Atheist Charities trying to convert the Christian masses into atheism.

Nope. No proselytising there. No attempts to convert people.

They morphed into crotchless panties. I am deeply troubled by this.

That's ridiculous Chum. Whoever heard of an evolutionist being "deeply troubled" by an adaptation as simple as crotchless panties. They are the missing link back to no panties like monkeys don't have. All you have to do is change the sewing pattern at the sweatshop and bingo-crotchless panties.Just like that. Some frilly edgings render them bourgeois but that's easy enough at $4.99 a box set of three in black,white and pink.

I was once a bit concerned about "bloomers" but I got over it fairly easily.

Are you suggesting that American Mothers have a streak of paganism?

Whatever Happened To Randolph Scott
The Statler Brothers

Everybody knows when you go to the show
You can't take the kids along
You've gotta read the paper
And know the code of G,PG and R and X
And you gotta know what the movie's about
Before you even go
Tex Ritter's gone and Disney's dead
And the screen is filled with sex

Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
Ridin' the train alone
Whatever happened to Gene and Tex
And Roy and Rex, The Durango Kid
Oh, whatever happened to Randolph Scott
His horse plain as could be
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
Has happened to the best of me

Everybody's tryin' to make a comment
About our doubts and fears
True Grit's the only movie
I've really understood in years
You gotta take your analyst along
To see if it's fit to see
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
Has happened to the industry

Whatever happened to Johnny Mack Brown
And Alan Rocky Lane
Whatever happened to Lash LaRue
I'd love to see them again
Whatever happened to Smiley Burnette
Tim Holt and Gene Autry
Whatever happened to all of these
Has happened to the best of me
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
Has happened to the industry

... Saturday night?
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright
It don't seem the same since cosmic light
Came into my life, I thought I was divine
I used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go
And listen to the music on the radio
A saxophone was blowing on a Rock and Roll show
We climbed in the back seat, really had a good time
Hot patootie, bless my soul
Really love that Rock and Roll


Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll


(saxophone solo)

My head used to swim from the perfume I smelled
My hands kinda fumbled with her white plastic belt
I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when I'd melt
She'd whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine
Get back in front and put some hair oil on
Buddy Holly was singing his very last song
With your arms around your girl, you try to sing along
It felt pretty good...Whoo!
Really had a good time
Hot patootie, bless my soul
Really love that Rock and Roll


Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll


(saxophone solo)

Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot patootie, bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll

I'm surprised at you Queenie for posting a male chauvinist whine.

Whatever happened to refined ladies?
