Songs, Phrases and Old Sayings About Luck
This is the last time I'm bringing this blog back. Really. No more. D-U-N, done. But in honor of St. Patrick's day and all of you descendants, real or wannabe, of good Irish stock, this final addition will be dedicated to you!
What we will do is this; Post a song, a phrase or an old saying that includes "luck" in it. Good luck or bad doesn't matter, for we all know the Irish have had their share of both.

I hate the traffic light at the intersection of Harvard and Iowa. If you are on Harvard wanting to cross Iowa the traffic light takes 3-5 (even when 5-10 cars are waiting)minutes to change. Now, when I go up of down 9th st, if a car is at an intersecting light (even just one car) that light will change in a heartbeat.
Seems like most days when I drive to and from work I hit every light on 9th st. Stinks!

This was a great idea RoeDapple. Now you have another section of LJW for you and all your buddies that have a pubescent twit mentality to play around on. No doubt the adult section of the forum will appreciate your efforts to keep the problem children apart from them.

Don't even get me started on self-flushing toilets, Roe. I'm firmly convinced they are the devil's invention.
For that matter, motion sensor anything pretty much sucks. Soap dispensers, paper towels, water spigots, etc. I'm all about being environmentally friendly, but the damned things don't work!
Which reminds me, what's with the new motion activated hand soap dispensers for the home? The commercial goes on and on about all of the germs on top of your hand soap dispenser, implying that the evil germs will someday destroy your family. HELLO! You touch the thing to get the stupid soap to wash the germs off of your stupid hands!
Whew...thanks for this opportunity, Roe. I'm sure I'll think of something else that royally chaps my a$$ once I catch my breath.

I hate job interviews, especially surprise panel interviews. The questions they ask drive me crazy: What would you consider your biggest weakness? I detest most people, that's a weakness, what about that? No one can answer that question truthfully or they won't get the job. My point is, obviously I'm qualified for the position if my resume and references are in front of you and you can see that I have the skill set and education you're looking for. Why spend an hour asking someone mundane questions like: Where do you see yourself in 5 years or Can you tell me a specific situation where your had to a lead a team for a special project? Read the resume, dude, it's all pretty much there. Now ask me something fun or interesting or even off the wall. I'd rather hear: What's the most ridiculous thing you watched on t.v. in the last month, or What's your all-time favorite movie, or heck, even, Would you like fries with that? Anything to get to know each other on a more personal level. If you spend 40 or more hours per week together shouldn't you know if you're going to be able to work, laugh and have fun around that person, too? I'm just saying. BTW, anyone know of a decent daycare center in Topeka? Looks like I may be going back to work. : )

If you happen to see a ghost in a craft store, and the ghost looks at you, and it shakes you up a little, you should probably chill out for a little while before operating a motor vehicle. Because if you don't, you could get into a wreck and potentially become the more traditional type of ghost, not the kind that just haunts the memory of one individual.

Everyone of you who are running in the pack have been channeling a portion of Marion. The one person you people couldn't stand. Yup. Marion is still here because a part of him is in each one of your heads. He is probably LHAO with all the space he has rented free in your minds.
I am sure you people are incapable of seeing it but people do care. They just aren't saying anything. And as to hurting. What about what the bunch of you is doing to Irish? All of you know her history well. The bunch of you ganged up on her. All of you against just one person who you knew is not capable of defending herself. You weren't happy with just making fun of her. You kept it up. You even set her up and are still trying to keep it up after it was obvious that it had gone to far. You twits have turned this into nothing more than Face Book or My Space. If Irish does something irrational, or has a nervous break down, what are you bunch of fools going to have to say for yourselves? Or do you even have the decency to care?
I have no use for Marion and I don't agree with everything that Irish does or posts, but as far as I am concerned everyone of you should have had your butts bounced off of here for what you have been doing.

I hate 99.3 out of Topeka and the fact that one of my coworkers listens to it, and the fact that they play "Turn the Page" six times a day and all I can hear is that stupid saxophone in the background. While I'm at it, I hate coworkers who hold you as a captive audience in your cube, and talk for an hour about work, even though it's time for break, all the while one-upping your stories and telling you that you're wrong, all the while ignoring your attempts to get up and get a drink or use the bathroom.

Behind the scenes huh? That is a Multi trick. Why no balls to defend her in the open. From this side of the fence it looks like you set her up. You put her up to blogging about sled dogs which was tied to a Marion subject and played right into the hands of your pubescent group. Even if good was your intent it doesn't take a rocket scientist to connect the dots and your group sure enjoyed turning it into the poster child for the butt of jokes.

Hey Roedy, It is clear that on occasion there may be some rather juvenile exchanges on these boards, I reckon we would have to admit. However, the last I understood, it is free, public and nobody forces anybody to participate. If one views the exchanges as something well beneath their personal dignity or is so far above the maddening crowd, I reckon they can go elsewhere. But to presume to come here and judge the values or morality or intellectual level of discussion in a manner to suggest that we are all beneath him, is just as rude and elementary as what he accuses the "pack" of. So if you don't like it, go away.

Attacked Irish? What are you talking about headdoctor? Nobody "attacked" her, but we did have some fun on her blog with Wal-Mart jokes and such. For some reason, she couldn't handle it and took it all personally even when we told her it wasn't personal, yet she threw a fit and removed the blog's content -- not for the first time. However, nobody "attacked" her, although we may have questioned her tactics. I actually advised her to just roll with it and have some fun. Not my fault that she couldn't take this advice, and since she can't just have fun with the randomness of responses then maybe not posting here is in her own best interest.
She did, on the other hand, call me a witch ... which was uncalled for, as I've only occassionally turned anyone into a newt.
As far as whether "Irish does something irrational, or has a nervous break down, what are you bunch of fools going to have to say for yourselves" goes -- I would say it a sad thing, but wouldn't blame myself no more than I'd blame myself for the nervous breakdown someone has because I unintentionally beat them to the last package of Nutter Butters in the cookie aisle. Obviously if Irish did something rash it would be the actions of a troubled individual, but they wouldn't be a result of others' commenting actions. My god, if I got upset for the nasty things said about my liberal political views, I'd be in the state hospital by now. If anything, the LJWorld should perhaps consider the mental health of its bloggers before providing access, or let them know in no uncertain terms up front that bloggers are not in control of what others will say.
You are acting like we came on here and just kicked a kitten for the fun of it, and that isn't true.
By the way, your suggesting that Irish's mental health is now on my shoulders has really, really upset me. If I do something rash now, it is all your fault. (See how irrational that is?)

Actually I am working between posting. Unlike some here, I have a life beyond LJW. Trust me. I will drop out long before this turns into a legendary thread. I would hate for you and Multi to be fighting over who has the highest post count. Which is kind of sad that to some the most important thing in their life is to be concerned about post counts on a small mid Western news paper forum.

As to the picture of intersecting highways at the top, it was saved for a blog about the Kasold Street bridge going over the turnpike. I understand the reason for a center turning lane when there is no where to turn on either end of the bridge is because it is actually a four lane bridge in preparation for Kasold to go four lanes in the future. Now for those of you familiar with the area, you know there are two roundabouts south of this bridge. If Kasold is changed to four lanes, it looks like either the roundabouts will have to be expanded into the yards of the homes at the intersections involved, or eliminated and made into 3-way stops. Whichever, it looks like major expense that could have been avoided with a little planning..

______________________________________________________________________
You are in my mind one of the most level headed straight talking posters this forum has. While my complaint involving Irish may have been a bit overboard I figure you of all people could see how she was responding and understand where I was coming from. I agree that if you enter a public form you better have thick skin and if not you probably shouldn't be there. That would be in a perfect world. Irish has made no secrete with struggling with mental issues and I am pretty sure some of these people know that because of her own admission on posts. Some of her actions and posts make it very obvious and it isn't as if she hasn't went off on tangents before. My issue with the posters was they could see very well that she was upset and was getting more upset. The group didn't just settle for that. They kept it up and started popping up old blogs. I agree that normally someone shouldn't be that sensitive but we are talking about Irish. Either way continuing what was going on didn't need to happen. I have no idea what set her off. Maybe it was feeling betrayed by Roe. Who knows. It isn't like kicking a kitten but to keep irritating someone who obviously can not express or defend themselves and who may very well well be unstable isn't right either.

meggers (anonymous) says…
headdoctor,
It's clear you mean well, but I believe that your last post may have unintentionally done more to insult Irish than anything that happened yesterday on the Wal-Mart blog. People ramble here all of the time and that doesn't mean they have mental illness. Acting like people should treat Irish differently because she's been treated for mental health issues is an insult not just to Irish, but to all of the other people living with mental illness. That's like telling someone to make sure you're nice to so-and-so, because they're, well...a little bit off.
Again, I realize that was not your intent, but I doubt that most people living with mental illness care to be stigmatized in such a way that they cannot interact with others normally (or abnormally, as is often the case on the LJW).
I've seen Irish write some decent stuff on here and I think she speaks from her heart. Sure, some of the things she's posted I disagree with, or just sort of say WTF?. Still, I never for a second thought that they were byproducts of mental illness. Now barrypenders, on the other hand... oh never mind.

headdoctor, you know you really have to wonder why Irish's blogs have not been removed or comments disabled when she has made it publicly clear that is what she wants. LJW can do this, but chooses not to, why?
beatrice (anonymous) says…
hd, the moshing doesn't stop just because certain fragile individuals enter the pit.
If we tell her to have some fun and that it isn't personal -- as happened -- and she doesn't take the advice and keeps coming back for more self-induced anger by writing more entries, you can't blame others. The old blogs popped up only after she removed the content from her recent blogs -- which is a very agrivating thing for readers. Again, it wasn't the first time she had done this. She also frequently complained about how she didn't get comments on her blogs. Well .... look at what happens when people do comment. As far as being unable to express her own feelings, I think you aren't giving her enough credit. She has held her own on plenty of occassions.
And RoeD had nothing to do with it! Only one responsible for Irish's actions is Irish.
It might have been a hard lesson for her, I guess, but it is apparently in her best interest to just stay away after all.

The LJW owns the blogs, not Irish. However, after I received my cease and desist letter today, it made me wonder why the LJW wouldn't just pull them since it is obviously causing headaches over there.

If you can figure out Kealings actions or lack thereof, you are doing better than most. I don't know if it is inexperience, incompetence, or just not caring. I know they have the right to do what they want but I have wondered why they even bother with a TOS. I have no idea what you are referring to on a cease and desist.

Yup. And I do realize you saw what was happening and tried to get her to lighten up. Which it is things like that, that make you different than the group I was calling out. They didn't care. I figured when I went off that everyone who posted on those blogs would think I was pointing the finger at them. I haven't bothered to count but there are probably only ten or less posters that I was growling about. That is if you don't count the multiple screen names that some are using.

headdoctor,
It's clear you mean well, but I believe that your last post may have unintentionally done more to insult Irish than anything that happened yesterday on the Wal-Mart blog.
_______________________________________________________________________
You could be right about that. Sometimes it is very hard to say what you mean by beating around the bush about a given subject. This issue is something I didn't bring up without giving it some thought before hand. If I hurt her with what I said I will apologize to her and hope she can get past the issue. I can be as big of a butt head as anyone but I still try to have compassion for others when needed. It just seemed that trying to stop the crap was more important at the time.

Head Dr. wow! you really take this seriously. I used to but then like many others on here I realized most of the poople who blog on here are Donkey Holes. Fortunately the greater majority are just people using this as a venting hole to relieve stress. Then add to the mix the LJW never fully report all the facts of a story. They are akin to the enquirer. I am unaware of what happened to Irish. But, I rekon she is of an adult age and can take care of herself. Your scolding was chivelrous (sp?) I suppose but isn't that also sexist, to think that one must defend another because of their impied gender weakness'? You will go crazy trying to debate anyone on here, for every comment you make ten poople will disagree with you and call you names. So, please don't let this crappola upset you so much.
Blogging on here is an exercise in frustration, futility, and insanity. The greater majority of pooples on here are not truley mean poople, they just use this as a mask for releasing their internal hostility.

hd, the moshing doesn't stop just because certain fragile individuals enter the pit.
If we tell her to have some fun and that it isn't personal -- as happened -- and she doesn't take the advice and keeps coming back for more self-induced anger by writing more entries, you can't blame others. The old blogs popped up only after she removed the content from her recent blogs -- which is a very agrivating thing for readers. Again, it wasn't the first time she had done this.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bea, there wasn't any "we" in telling Irish not to take it personally. You were the only one who came back and said that you weren't trying to hurt her feelings.
And the blogs don't seem to get bumped up when edited. Anna has edited her blogs before & they didn't bump them any higher and when Irish edited her blogs in the past It is new posts that do so.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LadyJ (anonymous) says…
I guess some people would rather have us getting drunk, driving and killing or injuring someone rather than just coming here for a little fun. This seems much safer for everyone than getting drunk and hurting someone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So your idea of a little fun is to torment someone who is obviously upset, distressed and hurt? It was pretty obvious she was not taking anything you all were throwing at her in good fun and your buds continued to push.
The one humorous thing about that yesterday is that apparently is that your behind the scenes ringleader thought everything about Irish was fair game until others starting making fun of the mobility scooters and it hit a little too close to home so she got a bit cranky about that.

This complaint is funny. Isn't the main response to those who have objections as to how others are being treated on here is that people don't have to read it if they don't want to? That you don't have to click on the item? So why didn't you all do that with Irish's blogs?

That's the problem here. Too many people have stayed silent about you and the other ♣ members' behavior.
Unfortunately, I too subscribed to the same thinking that Kealing obviously did - that if you ignore the bad behavior, it will stop because it will no longer be rewarded with the desired attention. Apparently the theory works on small children but not on adults behaving like small children.

Um, it is worded as a complaint (i.e. "it isn't fair that Irish can do something & I got in trouble for calling her on it"). And yes, the constant wharggarbl from the political crazies is tiring and boring but does that justify pushing someone to the point you all pushed Irish? For entertainment purposes?

" Lord knows the stupid Lefty/Righty extremists screaming at each other gets old." TOB seems to have hit the nail on the head, which is why some of us moved in another direction, which seems to annoy them since they think we should all be screaming extremists.
'JK brought some new info to light and it finally made sense to ignore her.' which I think others had also made the same decision.

Sorry, but I don't see "very upset." I saw nothing but petulence and self-martyr attention seeking. If you're trying to let things die, you quiet down and drop out of sight. If you're trying for attention, you make recognizable additions (or changes) to give more fodder.

Thank you for the compliment. There is no grouchiness here though. Probably more disappointment in those I had thought were cool and had enjoyed reading their posts. The others - not surprised in the least.
If you didn't receive a nastygram from Kealing, why did you word it in a way that made it sound like a schoolboy being told he got detention? And why would he even have to make such a suggestion to some who normally is as laid back as you are?
The_Original_Bob (anonymous) says…
"And why would he even have to make such a suggestion to some who normally is as laid back as you are? "
Good question. I didn't even think I was amongst the worst offenders. I think he knows when he sends notes to some of us, that they get forwarded outside of the LJW to others. Maybe he thought of me as a reliable messenger. It is like an episode of Lost. And to your first question, I was just being humble after reading what he wrote. I felt bad. Guilt, I tell you!

For all those people who reply to others having issues with their posts or blogs with "If you don't like it, you don't have to read it", why did they not follow their own advice? Clearly, they were not happy with Irish's blogs or behavior. Why egg it on?

Headdoctor,
"on the other hand" the first time I saw her post reference to her mental health history, I did PM her to warn her against doing that here, as a courtesy. I received no answer.
for you too, do not infantilize Irish. if her mental health history a self-described is accurate, then I am concerned about her. but I think there's some reason to think she is using even that in an "act."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I do not consider a temper tantrum to be an adult behavior even if it is done by an adult. If you behave like a child, then expect to get treated like one. I will add that if there is a reason for a child having a temper tantrum (too much stimulation, hungry, overtired, etc) then you modify your reaction to the tantrum.
And even if it is an act, what are you accomplishing? Why aren't you going after the others who have had many usernames? If that is going to be your justification for your behavior how about some consistency with it? There are only 2 that you do that frequently with & I can think of at least 3 other people that are regularly bounced & then come back again. I have yet to see you call them out.

I always pull into the lot as someone is backing out of a prime parking space. Then they stop in front of me, put on the child restraint for the baby seat, put their seat belt on, light a cigarette, put on their sunglasses, drop the cigarette between the seats, take off the seat belt and jump out of the car to fish for the lost butt, car starts rolling backwards because it is still in reverse, finally get themselves put together and start driving away. But not before scowling in their rear view mirror and flipping me off with the outstretched left arm hanging out with the rescued Winston.

Beyond that, I think I'm back to not having anything to add to the discussion.

Katara and beatrice ~
The :secret" to keeping your blog in the #1 spot is to edit it, (even if you delete 1 letter then re-insert it) then put it in draft status. immediately re-submit it and it shows up at the top of the "Reader Blogs" list. Add 1 or 2 posts and it goes to the most discussed list.
Feel free to bash me for letting everyone know!

Lady J, I saw that too, and I, too, thought "how ironic"...anyway, beyond that observation, something I don't quite understand...why DO people change user names? I mean, c'mon, it's not as thought the mentality or mindset of said individual(s) actually changes with each different username. I know mine wouldn't. I'd STILL think and sound like "me"...or am I missing something here...perhaps a multiple-personality disorder, or something along that line, maybe? I dunno, just never has made sense to me. I mean, in the first few submissions under a new user name ALL readers with at least 2 neurons firing can identify who it is...I mean, really, what am I missing in all that? Why th' heck bother with such child-like, simple-minded subterfuge? Just an absolute waste of time, in my honest opinion.

beatrice (anonymous) says…
mor-cow, I got pinked because the board apparently needed a little color. Former senator Santorum was not directly involved, but he did make an appearance since my story ended with the line - "The Aristocrats!"
At least I think it did.
Either that, or it was the comment in which I described the cure for cancer. I can't seem to locate that one either, so it was one or the other.
LadyJ (anonymous) says…
The purpose of the blog is to get things of your chest so you feel better, right. I bey Multi feels better. And hey, that lady didn't honk today. Could just be coincidence and since next week is spring break, I'll have to wait until the next week to find out if she has quit. Do you think someone told her? Nay, that couldn't be, it was just a coincidence
Katara (anonymous) says…
Oh hey LadyJ! Since this is the blog to get things off our chests...
I got the strangest PM last fall complaining about how dull the site was and how we (I have no idea why this person thought I would be interested) should have spiked the "players" with extra testosterone weeks before.
Same person sent a friend of mine 2 rambling, pretty disjointed PMs with all sorts of theories about other "players" and if this person knew my friend in person, they would be more than happy to disclose all.
And you all thought Irish was the one putting on an act...
RoeDapple (anonymous) says…
How 'bout them JayHawks!!!
LadyJ (anonymous) says…
Irish was putting on an act? Boy she was good. My ex was court certified psycho so I've seen some really weird stuff. Now there is this crazy girl that shows up in our yard or knocking on the door from time to time and she says some crazy stuff too, CIA conspiracies and stuff. Since we really don't know Irish personally, we really can't say one way or the other. Now my ex talked about the CIA a lot too, so if bloggers start talking about the CIA, FBI, or police conspiracies, we pretty much know they are definitely crazy.

Wow! Did you get the same PM last fall?
The same person alluded that they had some connections to some people who could do some digging on a certain person (I was supposed to know the type of connections this person was referring to) and then I and the rest of LJW could expect some fun as a result of that digging.

Personally, I resent that this blog is intruding on my personal space. What do you mean I have the right to leave this blog or just not go to this blog in the first place? it is my right to read or blog anywhere i please!!! There is nothing to prove that the mere presence of your blog IS NOT harmful to me. Who ives you or anyone else the right to randomly post blogs that have the potential of thrusting themselves into my own personal domain?
Random blogging MUST be banned!!! This waste of air space is affecting other posters and may have the potential to cause occular cancer by too much blog reading. Not to mention the stress incurred when one is forced to read ideas or patterns of thinking that may be disagreeable to them.
Give me the facts and figures!!! Show me how this is in any way beneficial to me. Explain how you are NOT damaging me by blogging! Then I may back down and let my high horse go free.
Let there be freedom FROM blogging, not freedom OF blogging. Regardless of what Multi or Roe have to say.

When the blog was y. my last post was "Who moved my cheese?" Now the title is cheesy.
I don't know if it is true, but most tales have some truth. My dad said that putting cheese on apple pie, delicious by the way, came from a myth. The myth was that the hot apple pie would melt ice cream and sour it. It probably started when someone overate pie a la mode and became sick.
I have also heard that it may have started when ice cream was a rare commodity (WW I or II?) and cheese was easier to buy. This is one of those times that I miss informational blogs that are really:

An ironic disappeardededed happened today. A user signed up as "ThomasNast" and attempted to discredit LJW. The original Thomas Nast is credited for proving that the pen is mightier than the sword; he is known for his icon creations of the republican elephant, democratic donkey, Uncle Sam, and Santa Claus. The original Thomas Nast did prove that the pen is mightier than the sword. The LJW blogger wannabe proved that LJW's sword was mightier than Thomasnast's libelous pen; he was summarily cut down and cast out.

Roe, you need a picture of Carnival of Souls up there. I actually remember going to see it downtown, my mother took us because it was made here.

LadyJ~ Did you read that the screenwriter, John Clifford, recently died? RIP.
I wish I had seen it in the theatre. It was creepy-effective enough on the small screen!

Since the purpose of the blog has now changed to a discussion of our favorite low budget movies I will promptly do the opposite.
My favorite movie of all time is "The Christmas Story". Why? Because that was what Christmas was in the late 40's, 50's, and 60's - naive, innocent, and simple.
Second, "Forrest Gump" . This movie stirs every possible emotion as you travel through Gump's life.
Third, "Airplane". It is so stupid that you don't have to think at all. Pure relaxing entertainment.

Damn, DIST. I'm starting to feel like a storm cloud now, but Peter Graves just died earlier today. I hope the next movie mentioned doesn't have someone recently deceased in its credits.

@ Py - That is the problem with hanging out here. It is easy to develop myopia and miss relevant news. I had best go check out the real world for a while. : - (

Okay, I can't help myself. This came across as a text message a while back:
Dear Grim Reaper,
So far this past year you have taken away my favorite singer, Michael Jackson; my favorite actress, Farah Fawcet; and, my favorite actor Patrick Swazee. Just so you know - my favorite politician is [insert name here].
Sincerely,
An American voter

LadyJ~ Good choice! You know we might have sat near each other then! We moved to Lawrence in '62 and my dad took me to C of S. Spooky....
Did_I~ Back in the late '80's a friend loaned me a book he had been given. He was laughing his butt off about it and said they really should make a movie based on it. The title? "Forest Gump"

One of my favorites is called "Chopper". It's an Australian made flick about a real life notorious Melbourne criminal named Mark "Chopper" Reed.
Stars Eric Bana before he was famous (and before he moved to America).
I highly recommend it.

Pink Flamingos scarred my poor little impressionable mind beyond repair.

I saw Rocky Horror shortly after it was released. None of the hoop-dee-doo existed yet. I expected to see a standard mid-70's horror movie. When Frank entered the scene, that notion flew out the window.

LadyJ~ if you ever rent "Pink Flamingoes," make sure the kiddies are asleep when you watch it. Hilarious, but raunchy, raunchy, raunchy. Did I mention that it's raunchy? Makes Rocky Horror look like Dora the Explorer. (That was almost a rhyming couplet. Sometimes I astound myself.)
Everybody needs to watch it at least once in their lifetime, so please see it and report your findings to us. That goes for all y'all who have not yet had the pleasure. In fact, you ought to gather at Roe's house, make some popcorn, and enjoy it as a group. Then everybody can post a mini-review and we can compare your findings.

The trick is to avoid hanging out here at all. Just swoop in, shoot a bunch of verbal paintballs, swoop out, and return later. More fun that way. And less time wasted.

Boston__just flashed back to the time my mother made her own cottage cheese, can still see the cloth bag hanging above the kitchen sink. Don't remember
what it tasted like, do remember she never made it again.
during teen years, we had goat milk, from the goats I milked. made cheese and yogart.

LadyJ,
thanks on the Avatar, though appreciation for the work goes to another's skilled hands.

Peter Grave starred in what is probably in the worst ten movies of all time, called "Clonus" or "clonis."
saw that on MST 3K.

@ RoeDapple - This blog started due to, shall we say, some bad luck on Irish's blog. It seems only fitting that it end on the good luck of the Irish. Bookends. What goes around comes around. Full 360°. ad nauseum. ☺
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Great job, Roe!

I'll contribute ELP's "Lucky Man," a song that, for me, carries some indelible memories with it. Heard them do this in concert, two nights in a row.... But was not really there to hear the concert. Was in the company of a PI, law enforcement, and assorted other incongruous players in a very strange situation--we had carte blanche to search the concert hall--backstage--everywhere--before, during, & after the show. To no avail. Getting to hear the music live turned out to be the best aspect of those two nights.
Long time ago. Far away. Hadn't thought of that in a while until Roe had to go and ask for "lucky" references.
