Legend of Billy Jack...

Listen Children to a story,
That was written long ago,
'bout a kingdom on a mountain
And the village folk below...

It's a different "Tin Soldier" song than OHIO

Well, you find me a crossdressing school girl picture that looks better than that!!!

I'm just one woman - trying to be witty and funny and witty at the same time.

Sniffle!

"His career has been mired in dung ever since!"

It's not the only thing he has that is mired in dung. And that is before and after he came out of the closet.

Right up there with his telling Dolly Parton he'd give a year's pay to peek at her chest to see if they was real

Oh, you achieved witty and funny and witty. And gross. I almost exhaled my burrito.

Michael Ian Black, being as queer as a thirty dollar bill, certainly would know.

I ran into my father at a Gordon Lightfoot concert. We were "slightly" estranged at the time. He was with my step MONSTER (who is 4 years older than I) and I was with... well, a bunch of rowdy friends.

I was slightly drunk (;->) and he was stoned.

Lovely family moment... reminds me of Thanksgiving...

The Night that the Lights Went Out in Georgia, and

Fancy (Here's your last chance Fancy don't let me down...),

were just remade by Reba McIntire. I loved those County Chicks from the 70's, and YES, I are one!

I was thinking that also - but didn't know how to phrase it without getting a three day suspension!
