Went to see the captain, strangest I could find Laid my proposition down, laid it on the line I won't slave for beggars pay, likewise gold and jewels But I would slave to learn the way to sink your ship of fools Ship of fools, on a cruel sea Ship of fools, sail away from me It was later than I thought, when I first believed you Now I cannot share your laughter, ship of fools

Half a mile from the county fair, and the rain came pouring down Me and Billy were standing there, we had a silver half of crown Our arms are full of fishing rods, we had the tackle on our backs We just stood there getting wet, with our backs against the fence. Oh the water Oh the water Oh the water, I hope it don't rain all day It stoned me to my soul It stoned me just like jelly roll, Well it stoned me

Democratic 2020 Presidential Primary Thread
Bill from NYC replied to snafu's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Sure, but don't you think that "establishment dems" already pander in a huge way to so called "progressives?" i can think of 2 quick examples: 1) Perverted Uncle Joe announced that he will definitely choose a woman VP. Imo this is openly admitting that he will use sex as the determining factor rather than competence. I am all for a female president. A competent one. 2) Cuomo is emptying prisons, and was doing so before covid19. He also lit up the Empire State Building with pink lights (at taxpayer's expense) to celebrate late term abortions. He long ago declared NY a sanctuary state, to include not cooperating with ICE, free medical care, free education and even free college (while our children pay). Is this not pandering enough? Hey, I agree with you that every dem candidate in the primary was either a thief, hypocrite, psychotic, or more than one of these. My question is, how much more radical would you like them to really be? Even Sanders has 3 houses and his wife has some serious allegations. Do you view him as legit? BTW thanks for an interesting post. -
Underrated TV comedy characters

The spinoff show "Rhoda" was not number 1, was it? I used to watch re-runs before going to work on 4x12 shifts. Great show imo. And Hillary Brooks! -

Valerie Harper as "Rhoda'" -
I remember, when I used to see you jumping rope (Jumping rope up and down baby) And I remember, when you got your first baby coach, But you were young and didn't understand, Now you're a woman and I'm a man, And it's me that you're kissing, Ain't it fun reminiscing. Now our lives are not the same, Our whole world has been rearranged.

This, and he was not instinctive. People forget that he was 6'4"', very fast, had great arm, and perhaps his greatest skill was his accuracy. It took me at least 2 years to see what was right before my eyes. I was at Lot 1/Pole 5 tailgating with Lori, Badol and his crew and a host of others. We were talking about RJ and I was still trying to figure out the problem. A great guy named Bob Lamb said to me "Bill, he sucks." That is when it started sinking in lol!!!

Your post is a bit vague, as if you want the Bills to trade for him. That's OK too, we are all entitled to opinions. I would agree with you on the premise that Lawrence is clearly superior to Burrow. It doesn't make me right of course. I'm the guy who thought Rob Johnson would be a great quarterback.

I'm going to run with Aunt Esther on Sanford and Son. She (imo) was one of the funniest characters in the history of entertainment. It was impossible for me not to laugh, especially when she came close to physical attacks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRmpCd5cJ4Y -

How about Lt. Scanlon from Barney Miller? There were guys in IAD who were just as petty. I'm talking about cops getting busted for getting 2 scoops on an ice cream cone and only being charged for one. One douche was in Nathans and ran up to the register to see if I paid full price (which I did). Scanlon was hilarious, and you could see how mad at him the detectives would get. I'm telling you that show was more realistic than most would think. -
When you put your arms around me...I feel so satisfied I want to love you forever...I just can't...I can't decide Every time I move I lose...when I look I'm in And every time I turn around...I'm back in love again (right back, right back...in love again) Alright (seems like, seems like) Back in love...again

Now the time has come (Time) There's no place to run (Time) I might get burned up by the sun (Time) But I had my fun (Time) I've been loved and put aside (Time) I've been crushed by the tumbling tide (Time) And my soul has been psychedelicized (Time)

He had white horses And ladies by the score All dressed in satin And waiting by the door Ooh, what a lucky man he was Ooh, what a lucky man he was White lace and feathers They made up his bed A gold covered mattress On which he was laid Ooh, what a lucky man he was Ooh, what a lucky man he was

It would probably also make a top 20 screen name.

Not just a fad cause it's been going on so long All the surfers going strong They said it wouldn't last too long They'll eat their words with a fork and spoon And watch 'em they'll hit the road and all be surfin' soon And when they, catch a wave they'll be sittin' on top of the world

You walked out of my dreams and into my arms Now you're my angel divine You're sixteen, you're beautiful and you're mine You're my baby, you're my pet We fell in love on the night we met You touched my hand, my heart went pop Ooh, when we kissed I could not…
