Dick,

To me that's still one of the most incredible things I see around here after nearly 4 years of off & on visits. All the people who start threads for a song that is easily found in the DT.

I run a website that is comprised of the lyrics of TV Themes. On the site I clearly state that all the songs I know are on the site, but I would welcome suggestions of songs I don't have, especially if someone has the actual lyrics.

What I get instead is people asking me for a song that's not listed on the site (once again, if I know the song, its on the site), or even better yet, requests for tv themes that I know damn well are only instrumentals.

Recently someone asked if I knew the TV show that went with the lyrics:
Would you like to swing on a star,
carry moonbeams home in a jar."

When I told the lady I did not know if that song was used as a theme and told her it was actually a famous song usually associated with Bing Crosby - she disagreed with me! She said it was from a show in the 90s, but she couldn't tell me anything about the show to help place it.
