Damn.  Two great songs, and one of my favorite names.  Who in the Internet age could get to be called "Lolly"?

Now if his last name had been "Gaggin"...

KPOO's oldies guy did Redbone stuff the last 2 weeks, including '60s things I'd never heard. And Offshore just played their other semi-hit, "Maggie", from late 1970.

Well, this store clerk comes to mind ...

10cc's Lol Creme became an even better name in the Internet acronymic age.

This wasn't my post.  How did it now get attributed to me?
