.....and thus, another Anthony lyric inexplicably gets a second life.

Boy, just when I had written this lyric off as an interesting failure (which it may still be anyway), this thread bobs back up to the surface. Back to the replies I go!

Bob-- I wouldn't say that Graham "got me good." The embarrassing truth be told, I thought this was a pretty neat lyric when I posted it. Little did I know that it was a dialobical device meant to mangle the mouths of seasoned singers. I'll take everything you say in good fun as long as you're admitting you've been unduly swept away by someone's praise yourself.... which I do believe you said you were, so everything's cool. Thanks for stopping in again.

SexyRexy-- You make an interesting point! LOL. I'd never thought of that before. The truth is, though, there's a big double standard when it comes to penile amputation in lyric versus lopping off of female parts. John Wayne Bobbitt is kinda laughed at in American sub-society, whereas a woman in a similar situation would be looked at completely seriously. So yeah, I think there's a little room for threats of penile amputation in songs, but not much. Thanks for stopping by.

Tari-- Thanks for stopping in again. Little did you know, but you were arguing with someone who's been performing since the Beatles first met Ed Sullivan. Why, the guy is ancient-- we're talking *56* years old!!! (I'm sorry, Bob. ) It's the truth, though, and because of that, I do take his critiques very seriously. That's not to say that yours aren't well-appreciated too, though. Why, witness the return gush a few posts above. Thanks again for dropping in.

And Graham-- If the board history has anything to do with my and my girlfriend being on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" last year, then, well, now Tari knows. If there's any other board history afoot, I'm not immediately aware of it, though I'm sure it's something or another. Thanks for the return visit(s).
