OK, then, anyone mention VW vans with curtains and flowers painted on the outside? (remember I've not participated in this thread in a few DAYS now.)

And too darn sober.

From 1976 - 1985, I was never too darn sober. Not for five minutes.

You're too deep, man.

There's nothing to get.

It's just silly ridiculousness.

Rickie Lee Jones is my favorite female singer.

I think she's a musical genius.

"Rod the mod looks a tad light in the loafers there!"

Obviously early in his career. Poor fella couldnt even afford a shirt that fit. He sure has made many a Scott (country or random male) proud though.

As a matter of fact, I do.

But I was just sleepily messing with you, goofball. Why do you always fall for that routine?

Yes, that was a great show. I always kinda felt sorry for that dumb wife, though.

This was also a great one. "Beans and disease to you, too!"
