Hey guys, I'm heading up the hill for a poker tournament today. I'm PM'ing my next pick to Johnny and Erik - if this isn't still available when my turn comes around, please skip me, and I'll catch up tonight.

"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all." -
I listened to Duty Now for the Future, just in case you decided to let it slide, Bucky. That way I could steal it from you...just for spite. I didn't really like it all that much.
Here's what I have to say about Kiss: I'll listen to them, grudgingly, if it means I don't need to listen to Pink Floyd or Zep.Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?Comment

+1. The last story was great. The mil-millington link even better. Might be that I can relate way too easily to them.Originally posted by Pogues View PostI'm just here for the baseball.Comment

And of course i really like that song!Originally posted by Erik View Post"I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."Comment

I made a "surprised they're still available" list earlier today ... Bridge Over Troubled Water was top. Great pick in the 5th.Comment

I DO like the title track of Bridge Over Troubled Water; it's one of those timeless songs that still gives you chills. If the rest of the album were like that, it would probably be dull, but it's not. With "Cecelia" and "El Condor Pasa," here were the beginnings of Paul Simon's interest in exotic rhythms.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerComment

The ONLY time The Sweeney Sisters, a mock lounge act played by Jan Hooks and Nora Dunn on late-80s SNL, was funny was when they belted "Bridge Over Troubled Water" to Paul Simon himself.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerComment

I'm glad you didn't take it but bummed you don't like it. I will say it really is the album that the hardcore Devo fans love.Originally posted by Pogues View PostI'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.

Machine Head was on my list but I wouldn't have taken it this round. Listened to it all the time in high school.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerComment

I just noticed that I really like the late 70s way more; one from 76, two from 77 and two from 79. I have a few queued up from 72 and 73 and two from 75.I'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.

I had a list of 5 for my upcoming 2 picks. Bridge Over Troubled Water is the 2nd from that list to be taken. Not counting on the other 3 being there either.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.
