No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
That's either a pointless bad idea
or a criminal animal abusey bad idea.

I started with The Bends.
It’s a fantastic alt-rock album, better than Pablo Honey, yet accessible. OK Computer twisted it and took it in a new direction that made it even more awesome. One of the greatest albums of all time kind of awesome.

FEAR THE ARM OF SWINKLES
"If Vin Mazzaro comes anywhere near me with shaving cream he’s gonna be coming away with a bloody stump" – Dallas Braden
I thought it was Swingles?
But Swinkles is even funnier, somehow.
I won't heal, given time.
I won't try to change your mind.
I won't feel better in the cold light of day.
But I wouldn't stop you if you wanted to stay.
Swinkles makes me think of sprinkles.
Which makes me think of Sprinkles, Angela’s cat from “The Office.”
I’m not sure what conclusion to draw from this.
by whiteshoes40 on Sep 29, 2009 8:38 PM PDT up reply actions
Sprinkles makes me think of Annie Sprinkles
who was a porn star in the late 70’s and early eighties and was kinda big and sloppy. Very sexy.

Yes, that is EXACTLY what will happen.
You know, these crickets are serious business. They are Texas crickets and entirely too big and black and disgusting for their own good.
…there’s a restaurant in town called Crickets. I really don’t think I’ll be able to eat there again.
