There were a couple in whom I would have been very interested.<br /><br />Yeah, I've never been too good catching clues about such things, but maybe it's a built-in defense mechanism.<br /><br />LeeArlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-12383432964254052912018-10-22T10:26:13.578-07:002018-10-22T10:26:13.578-07:00Late in replying here, LEE, but... thanks! And as ...Late in replying here, LEE, but... thanks! And as best I can remember, I think I told him what I wanted and my friend, dressed like Paul Stanley of KISS, whom you can barely see at the far left edge of that photo, applied the makeup for me.<br /><br />Funny, looking at that photo now, I realize the gal dressed like a Punk Rocker standing next to me with her arm on my shoulder, she was kind of attractive. I'm not even sure now, but I think her name may have been Lauren. <br /><br />I read a note she'd written on the back of that photo and now, all these decades later, it seems like she may have been hinting that she had a thing for me. I was always so oblivious to that. I didn't pick up on clues like that too well. And I'm sure I still don't (if in fact any clues like that are still being dropped on me).<br /><br />~ D-FensDogG<br /><b><a href="http://stmccpresentsbattleofthebands.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">STMcC Presents 'Battle Of The Bands'</a></b>Stephen T.

When I was a kid - just ONCE, at maybe age 7 or 8 - I dressed up in costume and went to ONE house for candy. I was reluctant beforehand and felt like it was totally stupid after the one house, so I went home and then - for almost all the rest of my life - just handed out candy to other kids that DIDN'T think halloween was stupid. However, in college I discovered that GIRLS liked such parties, and therefore SO DID I. That only lasted a couple of years though.<br /><br />Music: I like both the cover versions better'n the original. And I actually LIKE both cover versions. I like Stoneground just a little bit better, so a vote for the ol' metate' brothers... the ol' mortar and pestle boys.Sixgun McItchyfingernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-86944193874633897012018-10-18T21:23:34.010-07:002018-10-18T21:23:34.010-07:00Dogg, they aren't so loud when I keep the volu...Dogg, they aren't so loud when I keep the volume low, but I know what you're saying.

Apparently not. Seems like mine groove must be pop.<br /><br />But for this battle, I'm going with the BRITS.
