"Sugar Hill Gang: Rapper's Delight!"

That song is forever etched into my brain... I was a traveling disc Jockey in the late 70s to mid 80s.

To this day I can recite the entire Extended play version from memory

What part of your vanity is series?

[Prof Engineer]

but someone please explain the "shower" business.

I don't remember exactly when. Soon after 9/11, someone commented about going to take a shower and missed, or didn't want to miss, the news.

I was still lurking at the time, so didn't get to bookmark the thread.

I doulbe Dawgg dare you...

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

I think the person who said it was also worried about a loved one who was on a certain flight or otherwise possibly involved in the news story...so everyone found it a little funny that the shower was taking priority over the news.

Or else I dreamed that.

"I doulbe Dawgg dare you..."

NO, my Doctor told me if I don't recite it eventually it will fade from my mind... of course he could have been hinting at a early diagnosis of Alzheimer's but I can't remember.

No -- I think you're right -- it was a female FReeper, and she was worried that her husband's plane was involved in a forced landing or some such thing -- she made the mistake (oops! almost spelled that as misteak) of posting that she had to take a shower, but please keep the therad updated, which then degenerated into a bunch of silly "woman in the shower" type jokes (some of which were great, but not very nice, considering she really was worried)

[twyn1]

therad=thread -- mea culpa

[ArGee]

If this kind of thing bothers you, your not the write kind of person for Free Republic.

Shalom.

Uncle, I give up. ROFLMAO

YAY !! Intimidator gets it !!

*note -- yes, I know I prolly spelled "YAY" wrong, used capitals & double-double exclamation marks !!

[FreedomPoster]

How do you know they're used? They look new to me.

[ZinGirl]

PSSST!

for a spelling freak, you're a few SSSSSSssss short, I think....and probably several exclamation points....you know, considering we're in ORANGE and everything....definitely deserves that 'little extra'.

(geez....I wander away from the computer and everything falls apart. It must be a Friday.)

[SarahW]

Your an idiot.
