He's lucky that he didn't end up bludgeoned and buried under a tree (instead he was merely subjected to a chorus of expletives and threats).Barely Awake In Frog Pajamashttp://www.barelyawakeinfrogpajamas.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116501776625667465.post-35954536977912263382010-01-11T12:41:19.564-08:002010-01-11T12:41:19.564-08:00JB, thanks... now I've got *that* image going ...JB, thanks... now I've got *that* image going through my mind.<br /><br />Thingy, yup... takes all kinds.<br /><br />Mister P., yup.

The one thing you can say about Bread is that they weren't the worst of it (Starland Vocal Band, anyone?), but neither were they good enough to hang around oldies radio for the next 30+ years.<br /><br />Today is the first time in decades I've thought of bread as anything other than a starchy foodstuff to put peanut butter on ...<br /><br />Thank God for the Sex Pistols!Mythical Monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11330587602682498820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116501776625667465.post-25530203935961437792010-01-10T21:56:44.154-08:002010-01-10T21:56:44.154-08:00Having already confessed to some affection for Bre...Having already confessed to some affection for Bread's radio hits, I should add that I generally tune out David Gate's lyrics. They are the the downfall to enjoying their tunes. Indeed the diary under the tree is a device worthy of a schlocky Hollywood teen romance. <br /><br />I am with you - society needs folks like Edie and Tim too.
