It's ok. Behind your back he's been calling you Turd Blossom.

Dude, me too! Also, that song Truckin'? Totally the same thing. "What a long, strange trip it’s been." It's like, whooaaa, the song is about me!

I always thought Rush better captured your disaffected, lost soul:

Subdivisions ---
In the high school halls
In the shopping malls
Conform or be cast out
Subdivisions ---
In the basement bars
In the backs of cars
Be cool or be cast out
Any escape might help to smooth
The unattractive truth
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
The restless dreams of youth

He handles his gin like a 65 year old.

Episode 603: Asspen - Montage
The day is approaching to give it your best
You've got to reach your prime!
That's when you need to put yourself to the test
And show us the passage of time
We're gonna need a montage (Montage)
A sports-training montage (Montage)

And just show a lot of things happenin' at once.
Remind everyone of what's goin' on. (What's goin' on?)
And with every shot, show a little improvement
To show it won't take too long
That's called a montage (Montage)
Even Rocky had a montage (Montage)

In any sport, if you want to go
From just a beginner to a pro
You'll need a montage (Montage)
a simple little montage (Montage)

Always fade out (Montage) into a montage (Montage)
If you fade out it seems like a long time (Montage) has passed in a montage (Montage)
Montage (Montage)

*sniff* I love that song. I also like the sad version of the theme song, when they sing "fuck yeah" so plaintively.

This is a phone in of the caliber that is a notch below your boyfriend, Wood. What has become of you?

Since it has apparently been removed by the Craiglist police listed below is an ad for an apartment:

"Apt For Rent:
First of all, this is not a joke even though it sounds funny.
I have a home in Coney Island near the bay and near seagate where the basment ceiling is only 4' high due to the proximity to the beach. The dimensions are 20x31. It's a shame to let this space go to waste so I am offering to rent it to anyone who can fit. Obviously, I will not allow a normal sized person to rent it because that's just wrong. But a dwarf or little person would fit quite nicely. In addition, I am flexible on the rent if you are a circus dwarf or other perofmer and can entertain us during parties and other occasions. Use the Yahoo map to see the location because the Google map does not work."

When I think of PLF and Rush, I think of this:

There is unrest in the forest
There is trouble with the trees
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas

waaaahh!!! Those poor maples.

How young must a person be in order to plausibly assert that he or she has never heard the song The Things We Do For Love (by 10cc apparently, although I went through my life up until yesterday thinking it was the Doobies). You know, the "walking through the rain and the snow and there's nowhere to go and you're feeling like a part of you is dying..." song. Born sometime in the 80s maybe? I mean, you couldn't turn on an AM radio in the seventies without that song being on. Am I wrong here?

Can we ban people who claim not to know that song from posting here on the basis that they are not possibly old enough to be a lawyer?

How on earth could that be the Doobies? Its more Air Supply meets Jerry Rafferty.

This may be, but I find my Doobies mistake more likely than Mr Man's claim that it sounds to him like Squeeze.

Ha! A rake! Muttering!! Priceless. And so original.

I picture you as a lawyer in some second-tier market, gradually settling into the soft alchoholism of middle age, who has worn out his once-mildly-amusing absurdist/hipster doofus internet schtick and now can do nothing more than take feeble and pitifully unfunny potshots at other, more engaging and entertaining posters, without whose contributions he would have nothing whatsoever to use as raw material for his parasitic and vicious attacks. Close?

I drink nothing but non-alchoholic beer, so I don't know what you're talking about.

Its also gota kinda Neal Sedaka meets Bread thing going on. Squeeze is a preposterous notion as no way is tha band british. But it is just as preposterous to think that Michael McDonald sang that song. You guys are both way off base.

Who is it?>

Oh my. I wonder what PLF 2001 would think of this.
