She's forty-one and her daddy still calls 'er "baby"
All the folks 'round Brownsville say she's crazy
'cause she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand
Lookin' for a mysterious dark-haired man


God I just love the above......it is so damn expressive.....one of my favorite songs

I can trump all of you here - I did a production of "Annie Get Your Gun" with Helen, and we got stoned together and wrecked the company station wagon. Yes - I said STATION WAGON. Next...

Okay, Helen and I were doing Daisy (Helen) and Violet (me) in SIDE SHOW in Detroit, and her dress got caught in the Tunnel of Love ride, and...

I don't think I can tell the rest of this story here...it's full of violence and language.

I did actually see Helen at the Kansas State Fair in the late 70's.

Remember this bad song - "Won't you make love to me."

Thug, you've been here since YESTERDAY. One of those infamous "long-time lurker"s I suppose.

Oh, and...LIGHTEN UP.

Oh - my mistake Rath,Aren'tyou the one who is a bitter,overwight lesbian who has a penchant for cruising young straight women here as a safety net and who's self indulgent professinal talent is over rated? Am I wrong again?

You are absolutely dead-on, Matt. Or am I wrong again?

Rudeness is not a virtue.

Posted: 10/28/05 at 10:48pm

Yes Rath - wrong again. And Lawyer - you spend an awfully lot of time here ... that is, for someone who is a, well, a lawyer. Do your partners know you waste so much time here?

Multi-tasking is a virtue!

So, Thug - did you see Helen in Kansas in the 70's?

re: Let's show some Helen Reddy love!!

Posted: 10/28/05 at 10:50pm

Well, whoever you are, it's good to know that are here to join the discussion, and not some bitter, vengeful former or current poster.

Ah, not as vengeful as you would think Rath. Just someone who knows how you talk behind people's backs - and are absolutely nothing in the real world, ans are undeserving of attention. And Lawyer - does Dame know you are up so late? It's strange to many of us here how you are so devoted and consious of her (his) prescense that you are in a city many miles away, with three children and a wife, Is there something you may need to confess?

Yes, Dame is my father. There now you know!

Thug, your little fantasy world is just fascinating. And your bitterness is nothing more than sad.

Damn you Thug. I was enjoying this thread when i had to find the dictionary and look up Doppleganger!
