"Wildwood Flower"--Traditional old folk song recorded by dozens Whitefang

Maybe somehow it's supposed to represent the Kirk Douglas "cleft". Whitefang

"Crazy"--Patsy Cline Whitefang

Yep. Some, like me, would benefit by using a "bat" that covers the strike zone. 😜 Whitefang

I was more or less referring to the availability of repair people when needed. The same kind of theory applies to car repair/ If you're the kind who is good at doing your own car repair but have no heated garage(or garage at all) it's a cinch your car will need a repair that requires you to crawl under it sometime in the middle of winter. But only in places that have harsh, snowy winters. Whitefang

Needle? Isn't what's in the bong enough? Whitefang

"Still Got The Blues"--Gary Moore Whitefang

If it came free I might give it "house room" seeing as the biggest room in my house is the garage. Whitefang

So, being a slumlord really isn't much different than being the average homeowner, right? Whitefang

Why I don't ever buy one is simple. As a GM employee of 30 years and now a GM retiree, I still get the discount. Plus I have a brother in law who always buys Fords despite him usually b!tchin' about 'em all the time he owns them. I used to like Mopar products too, but since Chrysler went through all those ownership changes(you know, Daimler, Fiat etc.) they don't seem to be up to the par they once were. Whitefang

So was my response, stodgy. Whitefang

"The Old Soft Shoe"--Kitty Kallen (among many others) Whitefang

Not a Ford man, eh? Me neither. Whitefang

If it was meant for the CARS it would be, Einstein. 🙄 Whitefang

Which fools are you referring to? The ones selling that guitar at that price... Or the ones that buy it? Whitefang

"Back Home Again"--John Denver Whitefang

Only reminds me that someday I'll have to get around to doing the "Dark Side/Wizard Of Oz" thing. Whitefang

You mean like this? https://www.engadget.com/2008-03-06-padded-lampposts-for-distracted-texters-being-tested-in-london.html So apparently the problem is nationwide. I've always seen bad drivers. They've always existed. All I'm claiming is there seems to be much more of them now than ever. I've noticed the increase soon after most high schools in the tri-county area of Southeast Michigan dropped summer driver's education courses. That was about 35 years ago. So, if you're OK with a majority of bad drivers being the norm, then it must be a "birds of a feather" camaraderie. Whitefang

Thanks. I've always liked that song. Now I won't be able to hear it without chuckling through it. And now I'll probably busy myself listening for "gay clues" in other songs from the past. Whitefang

"Take The Long Way Home"--Supertramp Whitefang

Since seeing the PBS broadcast of Joni Mitchell's Gershwin prize ceremony Friday night I've been listening to her stuff all weekend(except when I'm on here.) Today I'm up to... Whitefang

All I know about one or another is that you can remove pits and such from chrome with a Brillo pad. I doubt you'd want to do that with your LP though. And again.... Why do you want to "age" your pick-up covers anyway? Whitefang

I don't see how as it's your wife making the quilt, and your son looking for computer alternatives for his daughter. All it seems you're doing is offering a good alternative. AND providing a memorable bond with your granddaughter that she'll keep fondly remembering even long after you're gone. Whitefang

1. It happens all over. I've read that in London, England the city has put up guard rails curbside and padding around utility poles because of people too busy texting and otherwise looking down at their phones instead of watching where they were going and getting hurt. The guardrails are to prevent them from walking into the street. 2. Nobody said terrible drivers were "following" my daughter around. She simply reports what she observes and has to deal with. And her car is set up to where she doesn't have to hold her phone in order to converse on it. So she can keep both hands on the wheel when having phone conversations. And being stuck behind someone doing 45-50 mph in a 70 mph zone doesn't really make her part of the problem. 3. For your "first hand" account, I can tell you that last night, on my way home from the store, I saw (1)-- a man in the second car approaching a stop light stop three car lengths behind the first car at the light. AND preventing the car behind him to pull into the parking lot of a shop the third car was obvious wanting to enter because the second car was back far enough to prevent him from being able to. (2.)-- While heading Southbound on the way home I observed a car in the Northbound left turn lane, with his left blinker on, make a right turn! Like I said... Good on their knees. Whitefang

"Save A Horse(Ride A Cowboy)"--Big & Rich Whitefang
