Feed it a Harper VCR. It`ll stop doing that, Gnu.

Naw...when they passed on William Shatner, I lost interest.

Speaking of pissing on, I pissed on the last GG in a previous thread, but that was just minor.

At the risk of drawing (f)ire again, anyone know why the former GG did not get a second term? I mean, it's a cosy nook at the mansion, good pay, expense account, a private train to tour with, access to... I even think you even get snacks.

Here is the song Terry Kelly sang at the event today
The ties that bind

First verse of a better known song:

You've been hurt and you're all cried out you say
You walk down the street pushin' people outta your way
You packed your bags and all alone you wanna ride,
You don't want nothin', don't need no one by your side,
You're walkin' tough baby, but you're walkin' blind
to the ties that bind.

Bruce Springsteen

Yes..now that would have been appropriate for "the boss" to sing at the GG event, with Steven Harper at the front:)

Or, how about this one?

Anger shakes the house of cards
Loving cup upon the bars
We bend the truth to help us through the night
Tempers thrown against the wall
Shattered like an empty glass
Nothin' can save us from our own selves tonight
Anger is a might sword
Vengeance is our own reward
Love goes bling one eye at a time
Gonna cut away from the ties that bind

Love goes blind one eye at a time... now, that is a GOOD line!

Pat Benatar did some kind of cool stuff...she was really into that emotional intensity thing.
