[Guest Rockin' Doc]

He's infinitely better than he was at the start of the season.

I'd have retired with the infinite ERA.....

How are we pronouncing this -

LINE-OM-IT-ER

or

LINE-O-MEET-ER

Jus' axin'.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

Is his first name pronounced LINE-O or LEAN-O?

I've been mentally pronouncing it LEAN-O.

[Centerfield]

Lino is a Spanish name. It's either:

LEEN-OM-IT-ER

or

LEEN-O-MEET-ER

You can be so culturally insensitive sometimes.

I met her in a poolroom
Her name I didnt catch
She looked like something special
The kind whod understand
The room was almost spinning
She pulled another smile
She had the grace like pleasure
She had a certain style

Sunlight on the lino
Woke me with a shake
I looked around to find her but shed gone
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl

She took me to her motel
The room on the second floor
A kettle and two coffees
Her number on the door
She said I hardly know you
Agreed we kissed goodnight
I knew that in the morning
Somehow Id wake to find

Sunlight on the lino
Woke me with a shake
I looked around to find her but shed gone
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl

I lost my silver bracelet
My clubroom locker keys
The money in the billfold
It doesnt bother me
My wife has moved to boston
So luck is not the word
If you ever see her
Say hello goodbye girl

Sunlight on the lino
Woke me with a shake
I looked around to find her but shed gone
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl

I was kind of going for: LEEN-OM-IT-OR

]What the world needs now are some new words of wisdom like La La La La La La La La La

That's a great tune from a great disc.

[Frayed Knot]

The song came on the radio while I was trolling in the 'Pool' the other day and I changed my sig line on the spot. Most of my sig lines come about in that manner.
