Somehow I misread that as "Underground Sun" and was seriously baffled for like, a second or two. I am suffering a severe caffeine deficiency this AM and only vaguely awake after four days on normal weekend schedule, i.e. up at 9, nap for an hour or so around 4, crash around 2, rinse and repeat. This makes crawling out of bed at 5 on a Monday seem like a personal affront. I really should have been a debauched French aristocrat under Louis Quatorze*, you ask me. But I'll take the recommendation under consideration - thanks. * Great little Bowowow song. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2007 09:01:30 -0800 (GMT-08:00) From: kevin Subject: Re: and in last week's leonard cohen thread... (was On yet another note....) a live performance of "Closing Time" from some late-nite Canadian TV show I picked up while recording a lot of the (uncensored!) Kids In the Hall shows from the BBC out of Vancouver back in the 90s. Just to set the record straight, that was (& still is) the CBC broadcasting out of Vancouver BC (the BBC is a totally different organism). For some reason this misstatement failed to ignite a firestorm of controversy. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2007 13:53:14 -0600 From: Dolph Chaney Subject: reap Kevin DuBrow, lead singer of Quiet Riot, 52.

About the most successful of Malcolm's projects.

Surely you mean "Cum on." And yes, we know, your name isn't Shirley. "I'm not tempted to write a song about George W. Bush. I couldn't figure out what sort of song I would write.

"E burres stigano" is just bad Spanish for "Have > you a water buffalo?" "Galf Knip" would be a pretty cool name for an album, actually. "451", however, sounds too Bradbury... or perhaps even Moore.... - -Rex ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2007 20:10:14 -0800 From: Tom Clark Subject: Re: Praise the FSM!!!
