Don't know. I always shunned English lit majors and depts. Why you ask? What political demographic do you think they've belonged to lately. Hair on fire identity ghetto? That's right.

There's smart pop. Good pop. And bad pop. I don't worry about the rest.

There's smart poop. Good poop. And bad poop. I don't worry about the rest.

....and as we all know good poop is very important, especially as you grow older....

....so there you go, you've now successfully cemented your doctrinaire poop sensibilities into reinforced concrete....

....btw we are all waiting with bated breath to have you serenade us with The Archies and other historically significant poop favourites....

....oh gawd I can be such a child sometimes....but I have such fond memories of playing in the bath water when I was a wee tyke and they just pop out sometimes....sorry !....the good news is my therapist says this will soon be all flushed out of my system....really looking forward to getting that behind me so I can continue to carpet bomb the Music Thread into the 80's, then the 70's, then the 60's, then the 50's and right back beyond the travelling minstrel times ...

Cheers

I don't think you worked through the clips.

There's more to life than sitting at a dinner table in the fretted note with a two drink minimum surrounded by geezers who know the dead's pig pen or whatever else happened then and think it's relevant.

....no, listened to every anguished and heart-wrenching word....well most of them....ok, I might have missed one or two but I got the gist, mostly, eh...like what was to work out, I got the feeling the guy was really pissed at something or other...and his minder seemed pretty concerned, like he was afraid the guy's meds would wear off or something....I mean the guy has issues if you know what I'm sayin'.....or was there a sweet ballad or a lullaby I missed ?....

....and before I go quietly into the night one more thing....like are you insinuating that I am a dead-head !? because them right there is fighting words if you is....I will not stand and have my considerable honour besmirched in that manner....

Cheers

His minder writes the music. Brave new world out there.

As for the rest: you want to pound suds and argue the greatest version of Dark Star?

whatever.

....oh, so the minder is the organ grinder, and the monkey is, uhh, the monkey....wow that is so cool, not especially novel, or brave, or new, but still....I mean its a great shtick....for about a rant and a half....and then not so much ....something about the sameosity, like the monkey don't have much range eh....

... as for the other thing I thought there was only one......and really never thought of Carpenter as capable of comedy but if memory serves me well it wasn't half bad....

Cheers
