                        The sewing machine is broke?!!? Darn, my search for a working sewing machine is what led me to the forums in the first place... We are sorry for the inconvenience. Super sad, honestly. We hope soon to have it RESOLVED. Thank you for your patience. ![]() _____________________

                        Hmmm I wonder what was deleted. I have followed this thread since it's inception and can't think of one post that would be mod worthy. could have been deleted by the poster, before anyone had a chance to see it *shrug* _____________________

                        I think the opening post is never counted in the total posts. Check any thread, and there's always 1 post missing...

                        Lovin', Touchin' and Squeezin' by Journey (Steve Perry era of course). I have seen it describe quite a few Second Lives. 
                        You make me weep and wanna die Just when you said we'd try Lovin', touchin', squeezin' each other When I'm alone, all by myself You're out with someone else Lovin', touchin', squeezin' each other You're tearing me apart, every every day You're tearing me apart Oh what can I say You're tearing me apart It won't be long yet, till your alone When your lover, oh he hasn't come home Cuz he's lovin', ooh he's touchin', he's squeezin' another He's tearin' you apart Oh every every day He's tearin' you apart Oh girl what can you say? Cus he's lovin', touchin' another Now it's your turn, girl, to cry Na na na na na na (Repeats) _____________________

                        I Saw Elvis in a U.F.O 
                        Ray Stevens (Spoken) This is the evening news. Let's go now to our field reporter Renaldo Riviera. This is Renaldo Riviera on the banks of the stinky muddy river with Mr. R.V. Frisbee who claims to have witnessed something truly fantastic. Mr. Frisbee could you tell us what you saw. Yeah, I's just hunkered down over there puttin' a stink wad on my trot line and the short hairs just stood straight out on the back of my neck and I turned around and there's this big orange thing with them purple lights on it come swoopin' over them pine trees and just hoovered over the Winnebago there. Inez run out and throwed a skillet at it and then she scissored and run back in under the hide-a-bed. 'Bout that time a little trap door opened up, little stair steps come down and this little pink baldheaded guy stuck his head out. Now I'd seen that movie "Clost Encounters". I just walked on over there big as Ike and looked up in there and there he was. There who was? I saw Elvis in a U.F.O. sittin' there with Howard Hughes I saw Elvis in a U.F.O. Jimmy Hoffa was in there too I saw Elvis in a U.F.O. singing them rhythm and blues And Liberace was there and he had on a pair of Imeldia Marcos shoes What is that a shootin star streakin' cross the heavens above? No it's a whole lot more than a shootin' star it's a hunka hunka burning love, oooh I saw the Colonel in a U.F.O. had a big smile on his face And then he shook his head, puffed on his cigar and said "I done book "Elvis" out in outer space" And then those little pink men they all jumped in dancin' up and down the stairs And then they rolled their eyes, began to harmonize and it sounded like the Jordoniares Bop bop bop bop uh unh huh bop bop bop We got Elvis in a U.F.O. he's too good for the human race We got Elvis in a U.F.O. we're going to keep him out in outer space They got Elvis in a U.F.O. honey have you heard the news They got Elvis in a U.F.O. just singing them rhythm and blues They got Elvis in a U.F.O. (Spoken) And the colonel and Howard Hughes and Jimmy Hoffa even Liberaces up there he ain't never had no hit record honey. I done had more hits than anybody but do I get to go in a U.F.O. Nooo!!! Now is that fair? I'm the king of Rock n Rol! The originator! I started the whole thing baby and I think it's about time I got to go on a U.F.O. You better beam me up Scotty or your little pink baldheaded people done tore it with me. Wow!!!.....Thank you _____________________ 
                            There's, uh, probably a lot of things you didn't know about lindens. Another, another interesting, uh, lindenism, uh, there are only three jobs available to a linden. The first is making shoes at night while, you know, while the old cobbler sleeps.You can bake cookies in a tree. But the third job, some call it, uh, "the show" or "the big dance," it's the profession that every linden aspires to.

                        I think the opening post is never counted in the total posts. Check any thread, and there's always 1 post missing... Yes. The number from the main page is the number of responses to the OP, so it's always one less than the number you see on the thread. _____________________

                        You know what song makes me think of SL? 'One Night in Bangkok', by Murray Head. Any other examples? What song makes you think of SL? Artist: King Missile Song: Detatchable Penis Lyrics : I woke up this morning with a bad hangover And my penis was missing again. This happens all the time. It's detachable. [background singing begins: "detachable penis" over and over] This comes in handy a lot of the time. I can leave it home, when I think it's gonna get me in trouble, or I can rent it out, when I don't need it. But now and then I go to a party, get drunk, and the next morning I can't for the life of me remember what I did with it. First I looked around my apartment, and I couldn't find it. So I called up the place where the party was, they hadn't seen it either. I asked them to check the medicine cabinet 'cause for some reason I leave it there sometimes But not this time. So I told them if it pops up to let me know. I called a few people who were at the party, but they were no help either. I was starting to get desperate. I really don't like being without my penis for too long. It makes me feel like less of a man, and I really hate having to sit down every time I take a leak. After a few hours of searching the house, and calling everyone I could think of, I was starting to get very depressed, so I went to the Kiev, and ate breakfast. Then, as I walked down Second Avenue towards St. Mark's Place, where all those people sell used books and other junk on the street, I saw my penis lying on a blanket next to a broken toaster oven. Some guy was selling it. I had to buy it off him. He wanted twenty-two bucks, but I talked him down to seventeen. I took it home, washed it off, and put it back on. I was happy again. Complete. People sometimes tell me I should get it permanently attached, but I don't know. Even though sometimes it's a pain in the ass, I like having a detachable penis. [background voices continue to sing "detachable penis" for a while, then out]  |
