A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Everyone doesn't know that song? Huh. I had no idea.

Nope, not me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It resides in everyone's subconscious, like the Nabisco jingle, and the theme song to One Day at a Time

Well, that explains it. Don't know those either.

I think it seems to win, by acclamation or whatever it is.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Let me just say that popularity with people on public transportation does not equal literary respect. --Jesse

I totally know that song. That album is the soundtrack to 12/13 for me. Which makes me sounds scarier than I am.

That said, I don't have much preference for a thread name, since I'm not registered to natter so it doesn't show up in my message center.

Carry on

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I can't find an audio clip anywhere! Of course, I've only been looking for a minute.

OK, I seem to have found one, but I don't have Real Audio. Here on the Barnes and Noble page. The song is called "Kiss Off."

Wow, I'm not the tech-savviest person around, but registering for the group list seemed kinda complicated/confusing. I'm not sure I'm done yet, or did it right.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Well, I got the email saying you'd signed up, and I did the reply thingie that's supposed to tell the list program that you have been deemed worthy to join. I'm a bit new to this myself.

Darn you Jesse and your linking ways. I've now had 29 second teasers for songs I adored back in college - songs I can no longer listen to when my children are in the house. I hope you know this will go down on your permanent record.

Blister in the Sun would be a good title for an Angel thread.
