Those were funny. Dopey Democrats and their childish pranks.

Helmets? Personally I'd be more concerned with other areas of my anatomy than my head, in a nude bicycle race.

Mizz Cloud,

That was an interesting story about the Winston Churchill statue. The intent was to show people suffering from mental illness that it is possible to overcome it.

Perhaps the United States should have a Bill Clinton & Monica statue to give inspiration to people suffering from sex addiction.

Cat Gives Birth To Mouse-Like Kitten?

(CBS4 News) TUNISIA A cat in Tunisia has given birth to something strange.

According to the owner of the cat, the litter included 5 regular kittens, and one that more resembles a mouse.

The owner says the nose, mouth and ears look like that of a mouse, but the rest of the body is that of a cat.

The mother cat doesn't seem to notice or mind. She's nursing and taking care of it, just like the kittens.

As a cat lover I find this interesting...
I wonder what the bugger will look like grown up?

Here's one that's pretty old. But it was enough to inspire me to write a song about the subject:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1063850/posts

Here's a link to the song: (Replicant, this is on the CD you bought from me) I hope this works, as the server is being upgraded:

CHEWING GUM HEIST

Here's the lyrics to follow along if you so desire. Ignore the horrible singing.

THE CHEWING GUM HEIST
In the capital of South Africa
The craving for chewing gum was strong
Of anything that could be taken
It was the Chappies they longed
They formulated their plan
Salivating from their glands
No regard for demise
As they pondered the prize
They gathered the masking tape
Making their way to the gate
They raided the warehouse inside
Armed to the tilt, they didn't hide
They caught the security guards
At the barrel of a gun
Used the tape to tie, blindfold, and gag
And took 21 pallets of chewing gum

That hilarious!
I'll have to download that later!

'Whether they came across the Chappies by chance'
That very distinctly rhymes...

Mizz Cloud

That song made me smile fondly at the monitor!
Very entertaining...

Considering the only other thing I could smile at was my cat which was unavailable.

I'm quite positive it'd sound better on anything than my stupid itty bitty laptop speakers...


Mizz 'mistress of understatement' Cloud

That was NICE! Great harmonization with the riffs and awesome solo (as he thinks about sampling it for his own use), and the vocals ain't bad at all. Wish I could sing half that well.

Interesting thing you did with the vocal, dare I say the "Cher effect" with the modulation.

Nicely done.

Oh, but the drums could be a bit louder.

Thanks guys. Yes, that was a modulator ala Cher, Kid Rock and others. Captain, you are more than welcome to sample whatever you like from this.

I can't say enough of how well you did with your version of the theme. Awesome.

Oh I think you've said quite enough my friend. Marc 72 had it about right- Good - once.

Would've been much better with some of your chops on there.

Captain your version of the theme is very enjoyable! What else have you made? And now on to more weird news...
