friends

i've got 51 names to take part, but so far i've only received 30 addresses to know where the gifts are to be sent to.

i already have addresses for some people from last year, but can you still send me either a pm or an email to [email protected] to confirm that its still the same?

.

so....i'm sure everybody has some songs where they listen and feel like they're the ones speaking in the lyrics... what kind of music does everybody like and what are the songs that they relate to the most?

I've got two...I know that's cheating, but I don't care.

Mr. Bad Example by Warren Zevon

I started as an altar boy working at the church
Learning all my holy moves, doing some research
Which led me to a cash box labelled "Children's Fund"
I'd leave the change and tuck the bills inside my cumberbund

I got a part-time job at my father's carpet store
Laying tackless stripping and housewives by the score
I loaded up their furniture and took it to Spokane
Auctioned off every last naugahyde divan

I'm very well acquainted with the seven deadly sins
I keep a busy schedule trying to fit them in
I'm proud to be a glutton and I don't have time for sloth
I'm greedy and I'm angry and I don't care who I cross

CHORUS
I'm Mr. Bad Example, intruder in the dirt
I llike to have a good time and I don't care who gets hurt
I'm Mr. Bad Example, take a look at me
I'll live to be a hundred and go down in history

Of course I went to law school and got a law degree
And counselled all my clients to plead insanity
Then worked in hair replacement swindling the bald
Where very few are chosen, fewer still are called

Then on to Monte Carlo play chemin de fer
I threw away the fortune I made transplanting hair
I put my last few francs down on a prostitute
Who took me up to her room to perform the flag salute

Whereupon I stole her passport and her wig
And headed for the airport and the midnight flight, you dig?
Fourteen hours later I was down in Adelaide
Looking through the want ads sipping Foster's in the shade

I opened up an agency somewhere down the line
To hire aboriginals to work the opal mines
But I attached their wages and took a whopping cut
And whisked away their workman's comp and pauperized the lot

CHORUS

I bought a first class ticket on Malaysian Air
Landed in Sri Lanka none the worse for wear
I'm thinking of retiring from all my dirty deals
See you in the next life, wake me up for meals

and, "Got To Do It" by Andrew W.K.You gotta keep up
You gotta keep going...
No you never let down
You gotta keep going
You gotta keep up
You gotta keep going

I went around the place where we once went before
But I never knew it hurt so bad
I wandered back again, but you just slammed the door
I never knew it hurt so bad

We were nothing but kids on top
Never gonna stop
We never let down
We gotta keep up
Keep our heads on 'high'
Never gonna die
'Cos we gotta keep it alive

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
'Cos you can't get enough
You gotta do it
You never give up (NO!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you love (no more turning)

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
And you're covered in mud
You gotta do it
You still going on (YEAH!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you love

You gotta keep up
You gotta keep going...
No you never let down
You gotta keep going
We gotta keep up
We gotta keep going

But you left me down so many times and took me back
But I'll never turn around again
And now my life is back
I'm back on the track
And I'll never burn it down again, No

'Cos we were nothing but kids on top
Never gonna stop
We never let down
We gotta keep up
Keep our heads on 'high'
Never gonna die
'Cos we gotta keep it alive

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
'Cos you can't get enough
You gotta do it
You never give up (NO!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you love (no more turning)

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
And you're covered in mud
You gotta do it
You still going on (YEAH!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you love (no more turning)

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
'Cos you can't get enough (YEAH!)
You got to do it
You never give up (NO!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you... Love

by confusedjw in

on a night with a total eclipse of the moon.. in a year that manny hit a ball that hit a young boy in the mouth at fenway park in boston - the boy lived in the house that babe ruth lived in.. 100 years after last beating the yankees in a winner take all, final season game.. after being the first team in baseball history to come back from 0-3 in any post season series to beat the yankees - the greatest comeback in sports history.. after selling babe ruth to the yankees in 1920 - who then said the red sox wouldn't win a world series for 100 years.. beating the cardinals, the best team in baseball this year - in 4 straight.. not since 1918 - the red sox are champions of the world!.

by Elsewhere in

friends

they were holding early voting today so i decided to go in and cast my vote.. i normally like to do early voting because it is held on the weekend and there are usually no lines.

not today!

the line went out the door and along a wall for about 75 feet.

Badger

High voter turnout always makes for better and more credible elections. That is, as long as everyone's vote is counted.
