TEST!! Had this been an actual post, you'd have been instructed to...

Some records work very well if something is out of tune.

[arr&bee]

True west,and listening to this gem today who cares about the out of tune instument?

[westgrandboulevard]

Of course, it can also work in reverse, and be the only thing people are listening for.

Good isn't always enough. We all need to have a gimmick.

[arr&bee]

It's why we love music,always something interesting happening.

[westgrandboulevard]

Especially the little elements no-one else seems to notice.

[arr&bee]

Exactly,like the classic[the sweeter he is-the soul children]unless you've seen them perform it live,no one would know that the high notes at the start are done by the guys.

[westgrandboulevard]

At Motown, unless you were lead singer, no-one could be sure they were even being heard on the records.

[arr&bee]

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,hey west becareful or those lions will be replaced with members of a certain female group fanclub.

[westgrandboulevard]

That's OK with me. I've been a loyal member of that same, certain female group fan club for over 50 years - although not just of that certain group ONLY.

And, after all this time, who is to say we, on this forum, are all who we say we are. Nothing changes...

It's why we love music,always something interesting happening.

That's why I don't like boring drum machines.

[westgrandboulevard]

A drum machine is sometimes OK with me, if it has percussion overdubs and other synthesised music contributing to a complete sound which might be tricky to achieve with actual instruments - but I would always prefer the real thing. There's no artistry with a drum machine.

[arr&bee]

Haaaaaaaaaaa,that's why no machine will replace you west,you're an artist.

[westgrandboulevard]

I'll tell that to the medical people, in the event of life support.

[arr&bee]

Don't worry west,your beat will never pass away.

[westgrandboulevard]

Maybe I'll get the last word, and a memorial thread all of my own.

[arr&bee]

Umm west my good chap,you'll never pass away,but you do tend to get[carried away]now i'll gladly sell you a nice memorial thread for oh say...10,000pounds above factory invoice[plus shipping and handling]it will be splendid old chap.

[westgrandboulevard]

A virtual mausoleum could be fun, if it were possible to download one....

[moe]

Maybe I'll get the last word, and a memorial thread all of my own.

Do you really think you would get the last word with 144man and myself around?

[arr&bee]

Moe,where ya been i still got that[adminstrative]position for you and a new[electric typewriter too].

[144man]

Watch him, Moe. I've heard that line before.

[moe]

I've been underground R&B. I heard you were looking for me. Don't need that new electric typewriter when I have my trusty Remington stored in my basement. I could sell it to you, a real antique, for a 10K markup...........whaddya say?
Psst: 144man & westgrand: if he buys it the 3 of us will to a David Niven/Cantinflas!!

[arr&bee]

I've taught you all too well,heck you're tryin to over sell me at my own game...i'm so proud.

[westgrandboulevard]

'Game' is not the way I play it.....

[arr&bee]

West,i think you may be the mastermind behind this takeover,but i got a plan.

[westgrandboulevard]

So have I.

Your move....

[arr&bee]

Oh no you don't, you wanna seewhat i'm gonna do next and then you're gonna do something too.

[westgrandboulevard]

I'm in front of you, one eye on the road, and the other watching in my rear view mirror.....

[arr&bee]

Hey you are in front of me,not fair you drive on the wrong side of the road.

[moe]

Am I'm watching you in the back.............

[arr&bee]

Moe,i hope you drive on the american side of the road,yikes watch it west you almost sideswiped the genuine imitation gold trim.

[westgrandboulevard]

This overtaking is quite an undertaking.

[moe]

To say the least, westgrand!!!
I can drive on either side...........

[westgrandboulevard]

Me too. I do it all the time. On a two lane highway [[we call them dual carriageways, but you may differ over there) it would be the same for both of us, but where we pull over to the left after overtaking, you would pull over to the right [[but only when you really had to, of course....)

[moe]

HAHAHA!! Of course!!

[westgrandboulevard]

A motorcade can be very helpful, when in a hurry. No pulling over involved......

[arr&bee]

I'm pulling off the road until you two make up your minds...i'll be over here with the flask,hehehe.

[westgrandboulevard]

Oh, so we're running a mobile bar now, are we?

If any of your customers are looking for a sympathetic ear, they'll be in the wrong place. Here in the UK at least, it's known as 'The Hard Shoulder'.

[arr&bee]

West,lighten up old bean,take a sip of this wonderful elixur[it's good for the uk]and as you stagger down abbey road,remember to hold your head high...or you might hit a wall.

[moe]

How in the world can anyone hold their heads up high after that hooch?

[arr&bee]

Well moe,i would explaine but it would take a year or so,let's just say that the toxic...opps,err,ahem,hehe....intoxins uesed will keep your head afloat.

[144man]

Tis the season to be jolly...

[westgrandboulevard]

Until early in the New Year, when the mirror reveals you now have a figure just like Santa Claus.....

[144man]

My statins will keep my cholesterol down, so that's all right then.

[westgrandboulevard]

Don't throw out the control underwear just yet.....

[moe]

Spanx westgrand!

[westgrandboulevard]

In clothing terms, Moe, a waist disposal unit.

[moe]

And a behind, and hips............

[arr&bee]

Say what moe???you're behind in tips?

[144man]

Do you really think you would get the last word with 144man and myself around?

Are you really going to let me have the last word?

[moe]

Until I think of something better to say you can!!!
