Thread Name: BS: OLD TALE from Art
Subject: RE: BS: OLD TALE from Art
For years I used those kinds of "jokelore" to frame my songs. It was a way to make the old songs more relavant to mod folks. All the old songs I cared about tended to kill of many, many people---but a bit of timely humor defuses what might be objectionable to some.

Kat, Chris is coming out to troubleshoot the computer tomoroow. (Saturday.) Good thing. Maybe he can gigure why my DVD won't put a picyure on the screen. ...and why I, suddenly, have no address book in the computer. ...and why my printer won't print out that same sddress book when I do manage to find it about 5% of the time. Chris does this stuff like it's second nature to him. Sort of the way you and Joe and Max do 'em. Makes me feel absolutely moronic. Maybe I can get him to fix my electric wheel chair too... And all of our circuit breakers were tripping for about a week here. Just when I'd called someone to fix 'em, they all decided to work correctly again.

But, as the Kingston Trio once said, "All's well that ends well, I suppose."
