MM -

1) Very good. Ten rooms not including the attic is the 'official' answer - you forgot Mike and Carol's bedroom.

3) Correct.

5) Correct.

6) Actually - in 3 different tv show episodes, it was said to lead to Alice's room, the laundry room and to the rear entrance. (Editors, hello?) So - you are correct with your answer!

Very good. Clinton Avenue Elementary, Fillmore Jr. High and Westdale High. (The fact that you knew even one is impressive!)

10) Absolutely!

12) Yes. She played Mary on Little House, and gave Bobby her first kiss.

15) Carol's reason for being a single mother was never explained on the air.


Mister Matt - I am VERY impressed!

Does anyone want to venture a guess to questions 2, 4, 7, 9, 13 or 14??

You know, for number 6, I was going to include Alice's room in my answer, but my memory was a bit fuzzy. And I realized just after I posted I forgot Mike and Carol's room. Didn't all the kids parade through there to confess to doing something they didn't do?

I remeber that one, but can't remember who they were covering up for. I think it was Bobby.

MisterMatt - I am incredibly impressed with your knowledge of Brady Bunch trivia!

By the way - The Brady kids were selected from 464 kids who auditioned. (I figured nobody would actually know that one...). Can you imagine if they held the auditions now? There would be 464,000 kids lined up!

For some reason I've been singing this song in my head all afternoon...just thought I'd 'share'...

PEACE TRAIN by Cat Stevens

Now I've been happy lately, thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be, something good has begun

Oh I've been smiling lately, dreaming about the world as one
And I believe it could be, some day it's going to come

Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again

Now I've been smiling lately, thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be, something good has begun

Oh peace train sounding louder
Glide on the peace train
Come on now peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller

Everyone jump upon the peace train
Come on now peace train

Get your bags together, go bring your good friends too
Cause it's getting nearer, it soon will be with you

Now come and join the living, it's not so far from you
And it's getting nearer, soon it will all be true

Now I've been crying lately, thinking about the world as it is
Why must we go on hating, why can't we live in bliss

Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again

I went to Key West once and they were playing "Peace Train" the Dolly Parton dance version, in a club..so of course I had to buy it and play it all the way from Key West back to Miami...I'm still not sick of it.

BB I have to find a copy of that! I kinda like her voice.
9 to 5 brings back such happy highschool memories!

[NYadgal]

Posted: 8/24/04 at 7:03pm

Dolly Parton dance version? I've never heard it - and can't quite imagine...

9 to 5 was a great movie...haven't seen it in ages.

ok kids - I have 30 minutes to play and then I HAVE to go do chores...if I'm still here at 7:30, tell me to go to my room, OK??? (I seem to have a sudden lack of discipline when it comes to BWW...)

MOM...you have to find the dance single because the one that's on the album is just a version of the original. If you can't find it just let know and I'll make you a copy.

Hey adults...I was just going through some old albums and came across a copy of the OBC of "Let My People Come"...did anyone see this on Broadway? I used to play this album when the parents weren't around....I don't think my Mom would have liked the songs that much.

[mominator]

Posted: 8/24/04 at 8:22pm

Missed that one BB. What was on it?

Another Brady Memory...

Can't you just hear Davy Jones singing...and see Marcia swooning..

Girl, look what you've done to me,
Me, and my whole world,
Girl, you brought the sun to me,
With your smile, you did it girl,

BRIDGE
I'm telling you girl, something unknown to me,
Makes you what you are,
and what you are is all I could ask for me,
and its good to feel that way girl.

CHORUS
Thank you girl, for making the morning brighter
girl for making the night time nicer
girl for making a better world for me.

BRIDGE x 1

CHORUS x 1

Thankyou girl, for making the winter warmer
Girl, for making the music softer,
Girl, for making a better world for me
Repeat x1
