Re: Oliver's Army in the news
Must say that I'm disappointed in the current need for a ban, as if that will help anything. Let's just not say it. Let's pretend it never happened. Let's let those who knee-jerk misunderstand what is being said and how it is being said rule the day. And, yes, it is a bloody awful phrase, it was blo...

i'm old enough to recall being required to use a fountain pen, even long, tapered pens with nibs you could insert and dip in ink. and i'm a leftie. many were forced to 'switch' because of a strange, inordinate reaction to being left handed -- this would be late '50s, canada. then, when i was in my t...

There are infrequent chitchats about unfairness, but i really can't put it in any perspective... ...i understand that this might be the only viable type of outlet at all t...

Re: Female Narrator
That phrase "some things are better left unspoken" just hit the wrong way, is all and I misunderstood it. It sounded like something was hush hushed and I should leave it alone. My apologies. "Just listen, don't think about it" didn't even occur to me. And, actually, for me "...

Really? The problem with "it" being unspoken is, frankly, I have no idea what you might mean and that may be worse than what you're insinuating. Huh? All I'm suggesting is that these are some of his most wonderful songs and his ability to take that point of view is really interesting and, ...

Not sure what I have to say except that the utter emotional beauty of some of these is quite amazing. For a long time, Elvis has written long, sometimes rambling melod...
