  2. Two points,
    1. It's Country
    2. It's shit
    3. For a guy who's 'happy' he sounds depressed as ****.
    4. Why does it sound like a bloke from Swindon trying to be a
    Nashvillian?
    5. Why does every fucker who tries to do 'country' end up singing a
    fucking dirge?
    6. Why did you inflict this on me? What have I done to you?

    See your own #1, above.
    As famed bank robber Willie Sutton once replied when asked why he
    robbed banks; "Because that's where they keep the money."
    Desperate man calling the Nashville Help Line: "Hello? My wife just
    left me for my boss, my boss just fired me for sleeping with his
    girlfriend, my dog just bit my leg, my house just burned down in a
    tornado, lightning struck my church, my mom's getting out of prison
    again, my son wants a sex change, and it's raining! What should I
    do??"

    Nashville Help Line person: "Copyright that sucker! You *must* have a
    hit in there somewhere!"
    Must have been that gun in your ear that made you listen all the way
    through, then?

  11. It was the forlorn hope the last verse might suddenly improve. It did,
    it finished.

  14. You forgot to mention knobless, that you cut and pasted those comments from
    a web page
    and here you are, trying to claim them as your own.

    Except that isn't what he said.

    He said: "because that's where the money is."

    It's a very famous saying...don't put quotes on it unless it's a quote.

    I put quotes around it because that was the exact phrase I found
    quoted -complete with quotation marks- when I looked it up.

    Now kindly go **** yourself in a pedantic fashion.

    Twitbull whined, cried, and ranted:
    No, you just made yet another mistake, is all. We're
    Such an angry, bitter, and self deprecating little "man".
    twitbull gets a lot of his "facts" wrong, and when his
    frequent errors are pointed out to him, twitbull comes even
    further undone. twitbull's quotes, rants, and "facts" are
    not meant to be taken seriously. twit is to be used for the
    amusement if his many betters, and little else...

    Not to interrupt a budding flame war, but actually, you're both wrong
    (athough Henry does have the *alleged* quote correct):

    No, as you noted in your second post the line apparently sprang from a
    reporter's pen rather than Willie's lips, and thereafter became an
    urban myth. (I hadn't known that. Thanks.) As such, it's not
    surprising that there's more than one version going around, and
    neither can be called correct.

    Nor did you interrupt a flame war, as I never see Hen3ry's posts. Poor
    crazy Hen3ry just likes to web stalk and insult people who plonked him
    years and years ago: particularly the ones who keep right on doing so
    as he repeatedly morphs his posting nyms to spam his insane
    propaganda. (We all suspect it's the only pleasure he gets.)

    The poor thing just can't cope with the fact that his psychosis
    started to bore people after the first several thousand times he'd
    repeated the same post.

    If you think of him as the Ed Conrad of 9/11 kooks you'll be right on
    target.
