Just in case you don't know the song in the title, here it is( and it is MisterG and my wedding song) Let's Do It (Cole Porter) When the little bluebird Who has never said a word Starts to sing Spring When the little bluebell At the bottom of the dell Starts to ring Ding dong Ding dong When the little blue clerk In the middle of his work Starts a tune to the moon up above It is nature that is all Simply telling us to fall in love And that's why birds do it, bees do it Even educated fleas do it Let's do it, let's fall in love Cold Cape Cod clams, 'gainst their wish, do it Even lazy jellyfish do it Let's do it, let's fall in love I've heard that lizards and frogs do it Layin' on a rock They say that roosters do it With a doodle and cock Some Argentines, without means do it I hear even Boston beans do it Let's do it, let's fall in love When the little bluebird Who has never said a word starts to sing Spring spring spring When the little bluebell At the bottom of the dell Starts to ring Ding ding ding When the little blue clerk In the middle of his work Starts a tune The most refined lady bugs do it When a gentleman calls Moths in your rugs they do it What's the use of moth balls The chimpanzees in the zoos do it, Some courageous kangaroos do it Let's do it, let's fall in love I'm sure sometimes on the sly you do it Maybe even you and I might do it Let's do it, let's fall in love I choose to rise instead of fall- U2

I tried for several years to get PG...and we had actually quit trying and were looking into adoption when out of the blue, I got a ferocious mid summer chest cold. I remember drinking Robitussin like no ones business...and lo and behold...Carson was born March 2001! My doctor told me that it was the cough syrup that did it. Apparently, this - um- is an issue for lots of women. Husband's little friends couldn't get to my half of the equation. Oh, geez. Just visit the link under MsG's blog to read a more technical description. "Have you ever been with a Warrior Woman?"

...which reminds me...MsG, a while ago, you said you can't stand Cherry 2000 - but I gotta admit, for sheer cheese factor, it doesn't get any better than Cherry 2000! The Love Bots? Melanie Griffith (Yeck!) as a rogue pilot/adventurer for hire? Select to view spoiler: Our "Hero" leaving Cherry in the desert, Pepsi in hand for Melanie (Yeah, right. Like that would happen)? A fine, fine cinematic craptacular masterpiece. "Have you ever been with a Warrior Woman?"

PHOENIXROSE You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.

Heya! just checking in before bed! MsG, I think the 'long in the tooth' expression comes from beavers and other animals who have to chew wood all the time because thier teeth just keep growing. Such an animal who gets "long in the tooth" is, well, useless. Eventually their mouths get stuck open and they starve to death. This is why, if you have certain animals as pets, it's important to make sure they have plenty of wood to chew up. Once their teeth get too long, there's no real way for them to chew and reverse the process. So they're probably old and certainly useless. I could be wrong, but it makes sense to me. I've seen parts of 'Tank Girl' and know it's thought of as a cult classic, but never got into it. Many, many males I have known have a ridiculously bad crush on her, too. Is that all? I should go to bed. I get to sleep in tonight! Huzzah! http://www.bigdamnthankyou.com - show Universal your gratitude! We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think.

Well, if we're going for cheesy sci-fi then we ~have~ to include the 80's Flash Gordon movie! The characters, the costumes, the I-have-steroids-for-breakfast leading man, the soundtrack - by Queen no less! It's just great! More animations available at www.desktophippie.com - yes, I've moved!

whoa Flash...he saved every one of us. I love that movie...The princess's costumes are to die for. Oh and she later appeared in another of my guilty pleasures along side Sylvester Stallone Oscar...you really should try it. I'd not have believed it myself if I hadn't seen it, but Stallone is funny, really really funny. I choose to rise instead of fall- U2

Tristan try disguising yourself as a rolling chair..that way it's just a gravity thing By definition it's social if the activity involves more than one person. So as long as you are enjoying it and all...listening to music is social:) And I wouldn't say it's weird at all:) I choose to rise instead of fall- U2

Sigh - well I'm off. I have to go help my baby brother and his wife move the gigantic dirt pile in their new yard. (dirt pile was caused because 10 years ago previous owner dug out a giant area and built a swimming pool and instead of hauling away the dirt, just left it in a pile outside the poolhouse where it solidified and became the overgrown lump of scary it is today) Have a lovely evening all!!

I looked back at the thread and they were all trying to find a way to get Tristan out of his work place. I suspect he has left by now. Need an imponderable here. What is your idea of a age difference between couples. Is ten or twenty years difference in age to much? Does the age difference get greater as you get older? If you were fifty, would it be proper to date someone thirty? Traveler
