Don't let that stop you. Screw what anyone else thinks. And, besides, you might enlighten a few folks. Zydeco hip-hop? Country rap? (I still enjoy Carrington's cover of "Gin 'n' Juice".) Gospel? Hymnal?

umm..as someone who has hosted forums...in a far fairer way than Stryder by the way who blows out his infartions like confetti for no apparent reason. And what for...he doesnt like Astrology! Whats the forum for then?

Ahem I digress..

Yeah I used to say exactly the same as you...and then I got banned for upsetting someone who had just posted a poem she enjoyed...in fact that how I got a forum. My fans demanded it!..and left to join mine..

But I digress again..

I don't know where you got the silly idea that I'm a stalker..I cant stalk you and Xev at the same time!!

In fact I dont even know who Xev is..let alone know how to stalk him..anyway as I say I;ve no idea why you would feel that way..so onto my Song:eek:

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.

-- William Shakespeare

She's Buying A Way To Heaven By Led Zepplin


There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And when she gets there she knows if the stores are closed
With a word she can get what she came for


Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven

There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
And you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven

Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking

Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven

And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forest will echo with laughter

And it makes me wonder

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May Queen

Yes there are two paths you can go by
but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on

Your head is humming and it won't go in case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady can't you hear the wind blow and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And when she gets there she knows if the stores are closed
With a word she can get what she came for


And she's buying a stairway to heaven, uh uh uh.

Oh, it's all cool. And Tosh is awesome; you won't hear me complaining. In fact, on the reggae tip, look around and see if you can find 54-46 Was My Number; it's a two-disc compilation of Toots & The Maytals, 48 tracks, and the remastering sounds good. In fact, I think I'll put that one on right now. (If my daughter will allow it; she's been demanding Peter Gabriel's Us all day.)

First Look PurseFirst I Look at the Purse
by the J. Geils Band


Some fellas look at the eyes
Some fellas look at the nose
Some fellas look at the size
Some fellas look at the clothes
I don't care if her eyes are red
I don't care if her nose is long
I don't care if she's underfed
I don't care if her clothes are worn
First I look at the purse!
Some fellas like the smiles they wear
Some fellas like the legs that's all
Some fellas like the style of their hair
Want their waist to be small.
I don't care if their legs are thin
I don't care if their teeth are big
I don't care if their hair's a wig
Why waste time lookin' at the waistline?
First I look at the purse!
A woman can be fat as can be,
kisses sweet as honey
But that don't mean a thing to me
If you ain't got no money
If the purse is fat....that's where it's at.
Some fellas like the way they walk
The way they swing and sway
Some fellas like the way they talk
Dig the things they say.
I don't care if they wobble like a...
or talk with a lisp
I still think I'm a good lover
if the dollar bills are crisp
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
I don't care if you got yourself a wrap
all I want is your pretty green cash
Bought me a suit, bought me a car
Want me to look like a hollywood star
Money, (Money!) I want money (Money!)
Baby, ain't no "why", baby (Money!)
I need money!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!

Peter Tosh is often given as much credit as Bob Marley for the creation of reggae. Bunny Wailer and Toots are also on the short list. The first reggae song I ever heard was on the radio in the mid-1960s, Desmond Dekker's "The Israelites." It still gives me goose bumps, it was such a striking new sound, at a time when rock and roll had not even yet become the third-generation music of the establishment that it is today. A possibly apocryphal anecdote has it that Jamaica's musicians were fed up with being identified with calypso, the music of Trinidad. (Due to Jamaican-American Harry Belafonte's popularization of the genre in the USA.) They wanted something that would be forever recognized as "Jamaican music." So Marley and friends sat down and deliberately crafted the backward-loping, doubly syncopated beat of reggae.

We've got the radio for mainstream! This is a place where we can share our offbeat stuff. I love Alana Davis and Charlotte Martin. I suppose they're not exactly offbeat but they're at least a little different and you'll never hear them on the radio.

I can't speak for Stryder and I didn't see the post to which he objected. But as an outspoken member of the Moderators' community I can explain my position regarding things like astrology, pseudoscience, the paranormal and religious fundamentalism.

We are slowly trying to rebuild SciForums so it lives up to its name: a gathering place for scientists, future scientists, and people who are interested in science. Of course we get to take off our lab coats and share music, tell jokes, complain about politics, give advice to the lovelorn and shoot rubber bands at each other. But even when we're doing that, the scientific method must be respected at all times--or at least not flouted except in jest. We want people who stumble in here looking for science to find a place of science so they'll think about staying.

A key principle of the scientific method is that extraordinary assertions require extraordinary substantiation before anyone is required to treat them with respect. As I say, I don't know what Stryder reacted to, but if you posted a statement with a context implying that the theories of astrologers are accepted as legitimate within this scientific community, that is extraordinary, to put it mildly. If you did not accompany it with a bit of extraordinary substantiation, I personally would have considered it a violation of our rules against trolling.

If you were simply speaking in metaphors and archetypes, which after all is what astrology and religion are all about, and Stryder misunderstood you and took you literally, then you should explain yourself.

You don't have to explain that to a Fraggle. :)
