Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,tolerance Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:55 AM Your right Ronny, the rest of us are winding down, not too much energy left in me so I'll let you get the last word in tonite. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,tolerance Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:51 AM I like it too. I'm a big fan of Jimmy Webb who wrote "Galveston" and "Witcita Lineman". He is a fine songwriter. One song of his that is worth mentioning is "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress". |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Peace Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:49 AM Ron, my stomach hurts. LOLOLOL OK, deeeeeep breath, LOL. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Peace Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:47 AM LOLOL I liked "Galveston." |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Ron Davies Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:47 AM Damn, Peace, you're good. The rest of us are winding down (I sure am) and you're sharper than ever. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,tolerance Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:42 AM I'll be honest here and lay it out on the line, I (gulp) like "The Cow Stoned Rhine Boy." LOL |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Peace Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:38 AM LOL Hey, what about "Galveston." Or the German cattle rancher who got high when he ate meat: yes, "The Cow Stoned Rhine Boy." |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Ron Davies Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:37 AM LH--I've seen "Pobre cito" as two words. And, for some reason, I like the way it looks. YMMV. I sometimes wonder if using it ever causes anybody to try to look it up. Or to gnash their teeth at the insidious spread of Spanish in the US of A. I do find it quite handy. And it's shorter than "Mir kommen die Traenen" |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,tolerance Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:36 AM I like sappy love songs too Peace, "Moon River" and "Witchita Lineman" hit me in the 'ol soft spot' everytime I hear them. But man "Sometimes When we touch" Geeeesh way too much syrup. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Peace Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:27 AM Yeah, GUEST tolerance, but I LIKE sappy love songs. Always have. (I still think "Wind Beneath My Wings" is great.) But please believe me when I say I can see the syrup in SWWT. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,tolerance Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:15 AM I shouldn't come down too hard on 'ol Dan Hill. He has matured considerably since "Sometimes When we Touch" which I'm online with LH regarding his description of that dreadful song (sorry Peace). I commend Dan on his lyrics to Joe Sealy's Africaville Suite which certainly deserves a salute of respect. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Peace Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:05 AM PS If you are homophobic, don't watch the video. The guys kiss lots and hold each other. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Peace Date: 14 Apr 07 - 12:04 AM Well, you got me mixed up, that's for sure. As for Dan Hill, I will admit to disliking much of what he did. However, I part company with y'all on the value/worth of "Sometimes When We Touch." I think it's a good song, well-written and meaningful. The melody is pretty. Here, from 'Brokeback Mountain' is a presentation on youtube. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Little Hawk Date: 13 Apr 07 - 11:42 PM I meant "Ron", by the way, not "Don". I keep getting you guys mixed up. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Little Hawk Date: 13 Apr 07 - 11:39 PM For SHAME, Don! Dan Hill is the sappiest, most cloyingly romantic folkie pop singer-songwriter in the history of Canadian music. He appeared around the mid-70's. He was managed by Finkelstein & Fiedlier (the "Two Bernies), Canada's most influential folk managers, who also managed Murray McLaughlin and Bruce Cockburn (that's pronounced "Co-Burn", by the way....). Dan Hill has written songs that can drive you right nuts if they get in your head. "Sometimes When We Touch" was his ultimate in that respect. He also looked ever so sweet with his curly dark hair, soulful eyes, and bare feet. He's nicer than Paul Anka...but then, who isn't? ;-) What a guy, eh? I want to strangle parakeets when I hear his songs. Furthermore, "pobrecito" is a single word, not 2 words. It means, as I think you know, "you poor little thing...". |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Ron Davies Date: 13 Apr 07 - 11:29 PM Bad analogy? Pobre cito. Perhaps you'd like to enlighten us as to who Dan Hill is. Joe Hill, Sam Hill, Blueberry Hill--but sorry, Dan Hill rings no bells. Sure is nice to know, "Tolerance"--(perhaps you might consider a more appropriate handle)-- that you don't insist on the last word in a thread, like some of us lesser mortals. After all, that would be wasting yet more "'human energy". And we know you wouldn't want to do that. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,tolerance Date: 13 Apr 07 - 12:52 AM I keep trying to take your advice Ronny. For some erratic reasoning I end up back here on this thread, and again wasting valuable energy. I find your analogy of 'moth to a flame' rather cliche. It's more like having a bad Dan Hill song (then again is there a good Dan Hill song) going through one's head, for some reason it won't go away. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Little Hawk Date: 13 Apr 07 - 12:16 AM What a shame that there is no emoticon for the old stick your thumbs in your ears, wiggle your fingers, stick your tongue way out and make a loud raspberry in the direction of your opponent... I'm sure it would get a lot of use around here. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Ron Davies Date: 12 Apr 07 - 11:56 PM So, "Tolerance", still wasting "human energy"? Like a moth to a flame, eh? |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Little Hawk Date: 11 Apr 07 - 09:39 PM (chuckle) |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,tolerance Date: 11 Apr 07 - 09:31 PM Yes Ron, you're quite right. I shouldn't have have applied anymore of my valuable energy in responding to this insignificant thread. I must add, I do think your expression to my posting as being 'fascinating' is rather dramatic. I find 'ponderous' would have been more applicable. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Ron Davies Date: 11 Apr 07 - 09:22 PM LH--How can you handle more girls than you have already? |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Amos Date: 11 Apr 07 - 08:39 PM Ummm....that would be "no". A |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Little Hawk Date: 11 Apr 07 - 08:33 PM Wowee! Will this get me more girls? Will other men envy me and become deeply insecure in my presence? |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Ron Davies Date: 11 Apr 07 - 06:55 AM Guest "Tolerance"-- I note with interest that despite your earlier perceptive remark "What a waste of human energy." you still felt compelled to waste some more human energy--and comment again. Fascinating. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: AWG Date: 09 Apr 07 - 11:00 PM Ha Ha, good point tolerance. And you too, Ron, (I think). |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,tolerance Date: 09 Apr 07 - 10:35 PM "desperate for attention" just like everyone else in this thread Ron. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Ron Davies Date: 09 Apr 07 - 10:33 PM Have to say I've never seen that before. Somebody starts a thread called "My apologies to everyone on this forum"--which seems to be totally needless--since apologies weren't necessary. But then he spouts off so mindlessly that apologies are in fact necessary. Sounds like the originator of the thread was, for some reason, desperate for attention. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,.gargoyle Date: 09 Apr 07 - 10:05 PM AWG!!!
Looking for friends - you will find me one of your supporters within this thread.
You have provided (perhaps unbegonest to you) a possible "templete"
With heart-felt encouragement - I invite you to branch-out, reach-out, stretch this in-bred cataclysm of mud-catters.
Sincerely,

Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Peace Date: 09 Apr 07 - 09:57 PM AWG: Tomorrow's another day. Issues can and do mess people up. Been there a few times myself. Maybe we can all go back to square one and start again. I hope so. Too many good people here gettin' pissed off, myself included (in the 'pissed off', not 'good' part). |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: AWG Date: 09 Apr 07 - 09:40 PM No time, dealing with 'serious' issues. |

Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Don Firth Date: 09 Apr 07 - 09:32 PM Yes, AWG, kindly rule me out. I ruled you out when you started making a total jackass of yourself, and that was right from the start. Over and out. Don Firth |

You are gettin' stale and modly even whiles I talk, eh? No one wants you. Not even yer Mom. Not even crazy Rhoda who will flip a dead dog for a dime. Don't try and apollogize to me no more, man, cos you have flippin' used up yer flippin' credit line at the Shane First Bank of Flippin' Canada. You're hystery! - Shane p.s. There. Now let the flippin' thred die. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: AWG Date: 09 Apr 07 - 07:57 PM I agree, let's. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,tolerance Date: 09 Apr 07 - 07:55 PM What a waste of human energy. Why not let this thread fade off into the bleak sunset of cyberspace. Let it fall off into the bucket of fool's paradise. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: AWG Date: 09 Apr 07 - 07:50 PM To quote myself..."I may rub some people the wrong way sometimes, but would never talk to them like that. Oh well, I can be grating sometimes, sorry Peace.(and whoever else)."..... You just couldn't let sleeping dogs lay, could you Ebbie?? |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST,Canadienne Date: 09 Apr 07 - 07:49 PM Please feel free to rule me out too - I admire and respect many of the people you obviously wish to sneer at I will be honoured to be included with them! |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: AWG Date: 09 Apr 07 - 07:45 PM You can't talk to me like that....I'm telling !! P.S '" You've only been on this forum a short time, and in that time you've managed to alienate practically everybody except two or three people who, themselves, are very good at making themselves highly objectionable.".....Who are these people ?, It's nice to know who your friends are, and since youve been on me since day 1, I can rule you out. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Don Firth Date: 09 Apr 07 - 07:40 PM AWG, just who the hell do you think you are? The vast majority of people on this forum are likeable, knowledgeable, and very friendly and helpful to newcomers. New members, be they neophytes or long-time musicians, are very welcome and warmly received. You've only been on this forum a short time, and in that time you've managed to alienate practically everybody except two or three people who, themselves, are very good at making themselves highly objectionable. Grow the hell up and try to behave like a civilized human being, or get lost! Don Firth |

From: AWG Date: 09 Apr 07 - 07:26 PM "When you make ignorant comments about someone we know well - and you DON'T - you display only your own small-minded, laughably ill-informed, brainless persona.".....You mean, like you just did?? I dont need to ask your age...I think you are just a young kid trying to cause trouble, just when everything has calmed down finally !! Off to bed you go !! |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: GUEST, Ebbie Date: 09 Apr 07 - 07:19 PM You've gone too far. In another thread you professed not to know that you've pissed off anyone- well, take it from me, you've done a good job of it, and come out smelling- not like a rose - just smelling. When you make ignorant comments about someone we know well - and you DON'T - you display only your own small-minded, laughably ill-informed, brainless persona. You say you are 44 years old? Ha. Grow up. |

Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: AWG Date: 09 Apr 07 - 05:39 PM I may rub some people the wrong way sometimes, but would never talk to them like that. Oh well, I can be grating sometimes, sorry Peace.(and whoever else). I have some strong views on poverty, many think I am unsympathetic, but its not the case...... Over to poverty thread, this discussion doesnt belong here. |
Subject: RE: My apologies to everyone on this forum. From: Amos Date: 09 Apr 07 - 05:22 PM AWG: Yes, they do; but you should also recognize that your remarks have caused some ill-will, being themselves ill-considered. The remarks were not offered gratuitously -- trace your discussion back a bit and see what part of it you can take responsibility for. A |
