12561. alistairConnor - 12/7/2004 9:07:45 PM And if we forget. We can sing them to each other. And beat rocks together. 12562. Magoseph - 12/7/2004 9:41:40 PM I won't beat rocks since I'm tone-deaf, but I'll be your girl Friday, Ali. 12563. Ms. No - 12/7/2004 11:07:39 PM AC,
We could have our own choir. I can't now remember the name of the acapella group that sings the music as well --- this is different than the Persuasions. I remember seeing them years ago on PBS singing the Talking Heads' "Psycho Killer", it was really incredible. 12564. wabbit - 12/7/2004 11:26:12 PM The Bobs 12565. alistairConnor - 12/7/2004 11:49:00 PM I think I'm going to score a couple of songs for the choir, S-A-T-B, just as soon as I get some time... and appropriate software (anyone got any recommendations?)
Current candidates are : "Siffler sur la colline" by Joe Dassin (I'm sure you know it Mago) and "If I fell" by the beatles - I bought a Kings Singers score of that, but thought it was really horrible. I want to do an arrangement that's close to the original. 12566. iiibbb - 12/8/2004 12:39:07 AM Anyone ever heard of "The Shaggs"? 12567. iiibbb - 12/8/2004 1:40:53 AM Why women live longer 12568. Absensia - 12/8/2004 1:52:47 AM Whatever happened to the list of Christmas shopping resources we did last year? There's a place that was in there that I can't find in my bookmarks and I NEED it! 12569. judithathome - 12/8/2004 2:29:33 AM Hey, Judsie, that's too bad about your car--Is the panel difficult to replace? Were you in the car? Driving?
I think it will relatively easy to repair...the dealership which sells cars like mine has a vast body shop and they do excellent work. Lots of people here own cars as old mine (1990) and there shouldn't be a problem getting it fixed.
We were in the lobby of the theatre waiting to go in and watch a play; the car was in a parking lot across the street. A friend who was coming to the play saw it happen and came and got Keoni so he got the woman's insurance info and was very nice about it, apparently.
I know this because the weirdest thing happened today. A friend I don't see very often called and said the strangest thing happened to her at dinner last night: one of her friends told her she had had an accident Sunday afternoon downtown and that the man whose car she hit was so very nice and that she had talked to his wife the next day and that she was just as nice as the man had been...talk went on and as she described the "man" my friend asked her his name...and she said "That's KEONI and JUDITH!"
Such a funny coincidence...I invited my friend to our New Year's Day open house and told her to bring the lady who hit my car!

12571. arkymalarky - 12/8/2004 5:05:30 AM One of my very favorites that I never see on a list is Three Dog Night, Mama Told Me Not to Come. 12572. iiibbb - 12/8/2004 5:20:22 AM Three Dog Night was the first rock n roll song I remember hearing. We had it on a 33 and played it on an old cheap record player. 12573. Frankster - 12/8/2004 6:05:02 AM Judith,
You are too funny. I don't know if I would invite someone over who's hit my car ... well, maybe if he or she was a nice sincere person whose check for tha damages was in the mail. ;)
Three Dog Night was huge in my junior high years. I'm transfixed by the drumming in "Liar", among others. I still remember seeing the late Buddy Rich on the Tonight Show one night sometime in the early 70s telling Johnny that he thought the drummer for Three Dog Night was one of the great ones, right after Johnny had asked him who his favorite drummers were. What's this "list" you guys are referring to ? Let me look back ... 12574. Frankster - 12/8/2004 6:10:41 AM
Lists! Hmmmph!
...What kind of list wouldn't feature the Starland Vocal Band on their first page ? 12575. Macnas - 12/8/2004 10:33:17 AM Just to echo wabbit, the list I posted is not a top ten favourites type of thing, but a selection of what I listen to on the computer here.
I don't think I could compile a top ten, it'd be too much like hard work really.
Hmmm, you know, it's strange the similarities between what I listen to and what alistair and Ms.No particularly listen to as well.
I was only listening to Making Plans For Nigel the other day, I'd forgotten what a class tune it is.
12576. Magoseph - 12/8/2004 10:49:24 AM Hi, Frank. Hello, Mac. What is a class tune? 12577. Macnas - 12/8/2004 10:51:59 AM Hello Mago.
A tune with class, or a very good tune if you like. 12578. wabbit - 12/8/2004 11:01:28 AM Message # 12568
