Young" Subject: [chakram-refugees] Sorta XWP Mention ;) I keep forgetting to post this, but on most of the major networks (ABC, NBC) recently I've been seeing this beer commercial for Sam Adams Light that begins with a *very* identifiable Xena-like battle cry from a guy who goes on to make other more identifiable beer-appreciative-type sounds to promote the said product......;) Interesting how we don't even need the _image_ to identify the _sound_, that's how ingrained the show has become on our culture......;) Just FYI, - --Jackie ****************************************************** * Proud to have the same birthday as Lucy Lawless! * * * * "I think New Zealand geographically comes from * * ...

I'm still curious to know more about how Kev died, but I'd rather remember him as he lived.....;) I'll pass on your kind comments to Rob, in case he doesn't see them on the list. ;) - --Jackie ****************************************************** * Proud to have the same birthday as Lucy Lawless! * * * * "I think New Zealand geographically comes from * * ...
