Personally, I think candy wrapped in a sweater would be inedible.  But BOS4 BWW.



Hell, wrap Annabella Lwin in anything, and it'll be ok.

Hey Mona!


in honor of the opening of Tales of the City, clearly.

Sorry, but WOS from me.  Tee-dee-yuss.

coulda been worse -- she coulda played the Dead.  ;)

I thought it was them at first, then I thought Doors?  Then I didn't care because I did a bong hit.
Heh.  Here I thought I was still stoned from last night!  Giving it a WOS too.
Well, it was my suggestion, but I guess the charm is lost in the mists of time, and also there's a guitar angle that most folks don't pick up on.

is this the "guitar angle" you're thinking of?



tee-hee!  Just kidding Geoff!  (I liked the song.  nice choice.)

I will BOS it...  One man's tedious is another's, "Hey, that's a pretty cool jam."

Also BOS to Bowie and Stones. 

And to Swellagant's Clapton comment -- It's better to burn out than to Not Fade Away.   

Whatever that means.  I have a serious head cold and my brain is fuzzy.  Bleh. :-\

Huh, this Smiths tunes has the Bo Diddley Beat?  I *guess* so, if you held your finger along the turntable while a Bo Diddley record spun.

I didn't understand the joke until the pic of the wooden ones was added later!  Now I see!
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!
