Guest MDA Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Wolfhunter, Not a clue, but for those other's reading, how about this for a challenge...(seeing how it also seems appropriate at this time) "But here my talent is wasted, Yet it is not I who am to blame, But the one who could not use me." Bonus points if you can tell me where I can get more of the authors works (in English though, my Russian is nyet good!) MDA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GDR Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Hi Mitch I have two all time favourite lies from songs. 1/ "As I was searching from bottle to bottle for something unfoolish to say" which is about a guy sitting next to a woman in a bar. 2/ "He'll do a hundred thirty mile an hour, smilin' at a camera with a toothpick in his mouth", which is about a stock car driver which I know is a subject near and dear to your heart. Love the ol' tunes. Have you noticed how they haven't written an old song in years. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
