hi smorgs and how nice it is to see COLOUR spelled correctly on a2k.

off to the rugby match now...

Which reminds me about the middle aged bloke who after several failed marriages and relationships gets involved with a younger woman.

In a state of post love making bliss he says "you know this is like a new beginning, nothing that went before matters"

She says same for me....but I have something to tell you.

It really doesnt matter he says

But I want to tell you

OK he says

Well I used to be a hooker

He thinks for a moment or two then says well I said it doesnt matter what went before. Then after a pause he says

Actually this could be quite erotic...tell me more about it

Well she says

I used to call myself Nigel and I played for Wigan.

A2K posts are like corporation buses...you wait ages, try to walk between stops maybe....then they all come along at once.

Come on you City...bloody hell, 2-0 at Stamford Bridge.

Besides, you like me really...

I'm a pink cheeky chubby.

What's not to like?

Hey? Tell me that, little Lord Spendleroy.

It was good fun watching the Chelsea goal tally mount up and imagining Mac's face getting blacker and blacker.

That's the trouble. I'm easily addicted to empty-headed pinkie-chubbies.

Might as well complete the verse-

Quote:
Standing on the waters casting your bread
While the eyes of the idol in the iron head are glowing.
Distant ships sail into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists
A hurricane blowin'


Anything like that anywhere else?

Eh.....they must have got lost somewhere on the North Circular, because they never showed up at Stamford Bridge.

Embarrassed

Still, it's only a game. Rolling Eyes

Come off it Mac. It made me guffaw.

And it's great poetry all through. There's not a cliche in sight that isn't being made new and the "glowing" is just great. It sings great too if you understand the thing and it isn't gibberish simply because you don't.

And who else could it be? There's nobody in sight of that. It's as unique a poetic voice as has ever been heard in the whole wide world. And glory of glories it is unflattering. Lyric that flatter the listener are self-evidently bullshit. Look at the buggers they are flattering.

And why shouldn't it be. He's had all the others to learn off. And has he put some time in on that. Those others do the egoticklers to cover up their lack of knowledge of the song. They're in there with the stage props on the easy. Okay, some of them can sing pretty good but what use is that if it's just sentimental drivel cut and pasted off greeting card verses.
Takes you nowhere.

If it gets the ladies feeling frisky all well and good but I'm no lady.

When Don McLean was asked about the meaning of his song "American Pie", Chevvys and levees and all that, he replied
"It means I never have to work again unless I want to".

I think of the king's new clothes.

I don't deny Dylan is inventive, but to me his ideas seem random as a thesaurus, pick & mix prose.

Sod's Law.

Clocks went back to wintertime last night, giving us a notional extra hour of repose, but muggins here wakes up an hour early.

Ah well, I could always go and watch my recording of last night's Match of the Day....... Sad

It didn't look any better today.

But they're still below us in the league, Sunny Jim, and they still have to come to Eastlands.

Sven's Stunnas will sort them then. Rolling Eyes

Stretford United got a bit lucky against Middlesborough, but please be mindful of Smorgie's tits.
