Robert Smith is no wuss, after all he took care of Mecha-Streisand.

And the loser is ... James Taylor? Sure to raise the ire of Sweet Baby James fans everywhere, Blender magazine has placed the sensitive folk-rocker atop its list of the 25 biggest wusses ever. The roster in the August issue (on newsstands Tuesday) accuses Taylor of initiating "an era of confessional, listen-to-my-troubles singer/songwriters and turn(ing) self-examination into a hallmark of the baby-boom generation."
Who else deserves wedgies? Nick Lachey, at No. 2, for a post-divorce disc that "wallows in so much misery and self-pity it makes Morrissey sound like the Pussycat Dolls."
Next are Dan Fogelberg, Boyz II Men, Peter Cetera, Kenny G, Rascal Flatts, Babyface and Chris Martin of Coldplay. His wussiest moment? "Being derided as 'a bit wimpy' by noted ruffian Charlotte Church." In 10th place is Hilary Duff, "a sex- and drug-free sprite best summed up by the name of her next movie character: Sunshine Goodness."
A round-up of sissy songs includes Taylor Hicks' Do I Make You Proud and You're Beautiful by James Blunt, "this generation's Debby Boone, only not as pretty."
Hahahaha. Perfect.
I think he might have been mentioned once or twice.
"Where is Barry Manilow?"
He's got a new album out - The Greatest Songs of the Fifties. Love is a Many Splendored Thing, Unchained Melody, Young at Heart, Love Me Tender, etc. My wife bought it, and I gotta tell you, he sounds terrific.
I love The Cure. Somehow I don't think Robert Smith takes himself all that seriously, but I could be wrong. The video for "Why Can't I Be You?" is a classic, and that is a great song.
Sorry to hear that. You sure can get attached to them. He's just beautiful. Lhasa or Tzu? They look very similar sometimes.

He was a Shih-Tzu. Mom and Dad were both champion lines, but Stormy just was a good little pet. When I would travel for work, as soon as the suitcase came out, he would jump in to tell me he wanted to go with me!
Yes, some lines are very close in appearance. I had a Lhasa before Stormy and they looked a lot alike. Smart little guys, too. The Llasa could tell what word you would spell, and to get the appropriate toy. He knew all his toys by name.
If you know anyone who raises these dogs, let me know.
I'm hiding the mirrors from him right now. I was just going to trim him up a little bit because of the heat. He was squirming & the comb popped off. It put a little skid mark on his shoulder. I tried to fix it & now he looks like Pekingese having a bad hair day.
Mine still acted like a 6 month old puppy when he was 13 years old! He only took a turn at 14 when he developed the "doggie Alzheimer's". He would go outside and forget why he went out. Sometimes he would jump up during the night and bark, and yet he rarely barked (unless he wanted water or food).
If a burglar would have come in, he would have greeted him with kisses. He thought everyone came just to see him. Where did you get yours?
Classifieds puppy. Got him on the day the ad first ran. You have to be careful though. There are a lot of scammers out there. The only places I would never consider are pet stores & people who sell several different breeds because they're usually puppy mills.
I have a friend here who has already warned me about that. All I have found locally are very expensive ones, and from what I read on the web, not very trustworthy either. I called one reputable breeder, and I was treated to a really bad attitude. I would not be inclined to get a puppy from someone with a personality like that! LOL!
You are thinking of the late, great Terry Kath who was their guitarist. Chicago totally went downhill after his tragic death.
My hubby is a really nice guy. :-(
Looked at the list and am confused -- can a woman be a wuss?
speaking of wusses...where's max?
Haven't you noticed though that some guys just keep falling for very controlling (bitchy) women?
I have a number of guy friends who do. They fall, and fall hard, for the most controlling women around.
