Lapinsjolis, you flatter me--feel free to repeat.

Spooks, I'm done I tell you. but no one's done the Village People....

MBA, I like it. I could even deal with the jealous wife thing --well, maybe angry in a really sexy way would be better, but whatever.

LTZ - it was a bit of joke, sorry If I embarrassed you.

MBA - Robert Wyatt is beyond cool. Shame on you for not knowing him, he did what is probably the greatest cover of an EC song ever, and his new album Cuckooland is outstanding.

That's ok SL, it's kinder than some other characters I've been given.

Otis Westinghouse · Post by **Otis Westinghouse** » Thu Oct 30, 2003 7:18 pm

Absolutely. I was enjoying being Terence Stamp and Apollo (!), and hadn't heard of the rest of them, but now I'm George Michael? Can't I be Robert Wyatt instead? He was a drummer, and I have the original 7" of Shipbuilding, and came close to throwing myself out of a window when drunk once...

Misha · Post by **Misha** » Thu Oct 30, 2003 7:34 pm

How??????? Im male! Is this some kind of slur against my gender?

Goody2Shoes · Post by **Goody2Shoes** » Thu Oct 30, 2003 9:57 pm

Since, as Ms. BA pointed out, gender is but a construct, this girl takes being cast as John Lennon as the highest of compliments!

I am, however, jealous of Misha/Ella.

I am honored to be your Solomon Burke, SL. I'm curious, what about me makes you think of the great soul singer?

Post by **BlueChair** » Thu Oct 30, 2003 11:16 pm

Why am I Elton John? I'm hardly flamboyant.

bobster · Post by **bobster** » Fri Oct 31, 2003 12:24 am

Oh Solackluster! She's a woman either adored or despised, you got that very right. I'm flattered.

Miss BA-Erato. I'll shall wear a wreath of roses in your honor.

Oilyslick-Oh too capable lips and a disastrous love life?!? You know me too well.

Mood Swung-You are also a clever poetess who uses references in rhyme that are very TV land. Won't you delight us with more of your vast knowledge of television science?
