Good morning, Well, it happened. I heard a song featuring Allison Krause that I really liked, "Whiskey Lullaby". I'm not sure why, but when we moved to the new house I started listening to CMT sometimes - of my own volition. I suspect the former owners of having infected the house with 'country germs' because that just didn't happen before now (except for John Denver). <G> Since you were the one who first suggested Allison Krause I figured I'd own up to you being right - about this one little thing. Fair is fair. ;-)
Take care, Carmen PS Have you tried Eminem's stuff? If not you might be shocked at how thoughtful some of his songs can be.

I saw Eminem and Dr. Dre doing a Batman and Robin skit on MTV.

Hmmmm .. When I lived in Gatlinburg, I thought there was a state law that you *have* to listen to CMT in Tennessee ....

It sucked.
Unless he was singing it doesn't count. BTW, thanks a lot. Now I've got an image of Dre in tights stuck in my head. Just for that, picture this: Andre the Giant in drag as Marilyn Monroe.
Take care, Carmen

That's waived if you were born in Texas. <G>

Mockingbird...
Exactly. The guy doesn't spare himself from the hairy eyeball either.
I did laugh the first time I heard him say whay he'd do if that birdie don't sing and that ring don't shine though. The guy loves his little girl, but he's still a "work in progress". ;-)

It's possible for grownups of the opposite gender to carry on a conversation without sex being anywhere in the picture. It'll happen when you grow up. You'll see! Girls don't really have cooties after all. :-P

What they do isn't singing.
HTH
Strictly speaking you're correct. What Eminem does is more like a poetry reading with a musical score. And cursing.
take care, Carmen
I can appreciate his omni-denigrating rap to a point, but after awhile enough is enough, thanks, I got the point. 5 Mile was a good movie, though, I've watched it a few times. I love those rap battles. I'm really not into rap/hip hop all that much, but there are some pretty cool "educated" rappers out there who have interesting things to say and don't spend all their time cursing themselves and other people. Pharcyde is great, for example,and as far as hip hop music goes, very creative. Generally though, I don't listen to the stuff.

By your defensivness, Carmen, I feel you are being rather protective of "our" JC.

Eminem seems to be maturing publicly. He's apologized for *some* of his earlier denigration, which leads me to believe it's sincere. It looks like he isn't stuck with all the crappy attitudes he had before. Some have been rethought and discarded, so I have hope the guy will someday be a really good human being. It's easy to be good when life has always been kind to you, but people who have to fight themselves and the rest of the world before they straighten themselves out are the ones I root for the hardest. Just one of my foibles. :-)

I'm a little confused now. Billy was talking about Peter and my exchange when he made his comment.
If you had the other post in mind when you wrote this one - the one about Bunky and JC - then I suppose anything is possible. I don't think that's the case, but if it were I doubt I'd readily see it. The concept of JC needing protection from anyone *is* pretty funny though. <G>

Poetry in the same sense as: There was a girl from Nantucket...

What are cooties? Dare I ask?
If you're a girl, they are "boy germs". If you're a boy, they're "girl germs". <G> As a kid, they're dangerous and contagious, caused by direct contact with the opposite gender. Is there a British version?
