 jeanz - 25/09/09, 18:27 reply
mmmm ... heart of glass??? (Shattered teardrops?!?! Maybe???) ... a jaundiced eye??? ... too much of the funny stuff played havoc on your liver!?!?!? The tin drum is easy. Elementary deducement my dear Watson - although the heart got me perplexed - didn't think you had one :laugh: ... :blowkiss: :hug: :hi: :hi:

 jpoulos2561 - 25/09/09, 18:43 reply
:D Maybe depends on satellite radio ... "NEVer break, NEVer break, NEVer NEVer BREAK // this heart of stone OH no no" You've read The Tin Drum?!! In elementary school!! :whip: :whip: :whip: :whip: :whip: :whip: :whip: AND not really jaundiced as much as prejudicial -- an equal opportunity employer but "...when the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a hand saw." Uh-oh! Here come Jackie Wilson ...Lonely Teardrops - I can't ever dry them! :D :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

Mmmmm ... another wangled piece of aMAZEment I'm left to decipher. JohnO - so taxing on this tiny little mind of mine. *xD :hammer: :xp: :| NO, I watched The Tin Drum ABOUT elementary school - the little dude could shatter glass (so keep that heart of yours away from him :love: :blowkiss:). Mmmm, so you're prejudiced, - another side of your multifaceted persona perplexus. Finally, Crackpot Joe, may the wind blow those non-drying tears in a northerly direction, for be it southwards you'll be a silly, soppy, sentimental, diconnected, dehydrated drainpipe!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :hug: :blowkiss: :hi: :hi: :hi:

Ooooooooo, cut to da quick! And without my CrackPipe too! Alas...........it's bad to be prejudiced, OK to be prejudicial ... as long as you're right! :D AND so sorry ...I won't give you anything else to cipher! :hi: :) :whip: :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :hug: :hug: :hi:

 jpoulos2561 - 25/09/09, 19:53 reply
Very good! Yours? Like it. And the only time I get prejudicial is during hostilities. If you're not prejudicial for your side, and your side is in the right...well...then you're just a wimp and you get run over by people in the wrong! I hate it when that happens. :D :hug: :hug: :hug:

 jeanz - 25/09/09, 20:21 reply
Of course it's mine, who else would come up with such a condescending piece of drivel :-? :-? :-? ... yeah, but ten miles down the road you've grown up and suddenly you realize that it was all just a complete load of kak anyway - don't you just hate when THAT happens? :-? ... :blowkiss: :hug:

May i ask U what kind of music do you like, dear Johnny? who`s your favs? :) ... btw, I played basketball at school. how did I do it, have no idea! :confused: till now dont know the rules... :D :D :cute: :hug: :blowkiss:

 jpoulos2561 - 25/09/09, 17:32 reply
:D :grin: I do indeed! I love music but am a mediocre club player truly confident only with guitar....too many influences to mention...so, let's just say, Depeche Mode, NIN, Madonna...are the ones we have in common as far as I know ... beyond that ... and the ones I chose to draw ... I always liked those who set a new course ... the Byrds, Eagles, CSN&Y, U2, 2 many --- Rolling Stone published recently the top 100 albums of all time -- I had 81 of them - at one time ... and Emmy Lou Harris is playing right now! Far, far and away from Mr. Perfect, I am strictly Mr. Amateur & Dilettante. You look like a shooting guard with good defensive skills to me. The only chops I had in b'ball was to get fouled by a 6'7' power forward! :D :D :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :hug: :hug:
