So what's your favourite Eagles song? I think mine would have to be Grandad, by Clive Dunn:
I've been sitting here all day thinking
Same old thing ten years away thinking
Now my days are gone, memories linger on
Thoughts of when I was boy
Pennyfarthings on the street riding
Motorcars were funny things, frightning
Bow and hoops and spinning tops
Annie gretzel's lollipops
Comic cuts, all different things
Grandad, grandad you're lovely
That's what we all think of you
Grandad, grandad you're lovely
That's what we all think of you
Grandad grandad
Areoplanes tied up with string flying
Telephones and talking things sighing
A radio and phonograph, Charlie Chaplin made us laugh
Silently falling about
Familiar things I keep around, near me
Memories of my younger days, clearly
Now it's in my mind?
Everyday I find, thoughts of when I was boy
Grandad, grandad you're lovely
That's what we all think of you
Grandad, grandad you're lovely
That's what we all think of you
Grandad, grandad
Grandad, grandad
Grandad, grandad
Grandma, we love you.
Grandma we do.
Though you may be a senile old bitch,
we get a buzz off you.
You wear a raincoat in the summer.
You smell of piss and Rich Tea.
There's no-one quite like Grandma, but I wish she'd stop slipping the tongue when I kiss her goodnight.
At leat I think those are the words.
Feckinell. I go away for a long weekend of top quality music, holiday camp accomodation and pie, and I come back to discover that this thread is still going? That's terrible.

All in good time - I shall leave tantalising snippets around teh place as I try to catch up.
It's a stubborn fucker, innit?!
Good weekend?
Yeah, I had a great time - there's a post about it somewhere in that lot <--.
Since Thursday, I've received 126 emails to my home account. 4 weren't spam.
Glad it was cool - no doubt I'll stumbe across the thread soon as I pass time while VNC tries to run over 56K (grrrrrrr). I'm setting up a RAS server tomorrow goddamitt!
On the mail side, imagine the size of your penis when you've gone through them all.
That's an idea.
>>imagines<<
Oh wow - it's got its own University Diploma now!
Ohhh I get it. The pressure waves of the air change the pressure of the gas inside and so the high pressure spots shoot higher flames and vice versa. Very clever!
I am now going to mention Nazi, Germany in an attempt to get this thread to end.

Is that your own? 'S'nice. Very Malevich.
The Nazis weren't averse to incorporating Eagles in their iconography.
They often stayed in hotels as well, though admittedly, probably not in California.
They did gas a lot of Jews, though. But not in hotels.
Aye. For some reason, at whatever time that was this morning, I got an urge to make Malevich's squares dance.
And whatever criticisms you may make of The Eagles, they've never been accused of genocide. Or not so the accusation stuck.
