    ... Happy being "cool" though.
    Of course "we" - as I said - go figure .

    So is Lady Gaga gonna join SWJ? Maybe host a non-virtual?

    Maybe a centerfold in the Journal?

    Oh wow man...Rock and Roll!

    Well we are big rock singers, we've got golden fingers
    And we're loved everywhere we go
    We sing about beauty and we sing about truth
    At ten thousand dollars a show
    We take all kind of pills to give us all kind of thrills
    But the thrill we've never known
    Is the thrill that'll get you when you get your picture
    On the cover of the Rolling Stone

    I've got a freaky old lady name o' Cocaine Katy
    Who embroiders on my jeans
    I've got my poor old gray-haired Daddy
    Drivin' my limousine
    Now it's all designed to blow our minds
    But our minds won't really be blown
    Like the blow that'll get you when you get your picture
    On the cover of the Rolling Stone

    {Refrain}

    We got a lot of little teenage blue-eyed groupies
    Who do anything we say
    We got a genuine Indian guru
    He's teachin' us a better way
    We got all the friends that money can buy
    So we never have to be alone
    And we keep gettin' richer but we can't get our picture
    On the cover of the Rolling Stone


    {Refrain}
    Rolling Stone
    Wanna see my picture on the cover
    Rolling Stone
    Wanna buy five copies for my mother
    Rolling Stone
    Wanna see my smilin' face
    On the cover of the Rolling Stone

    Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show

    Default Thanks OE

    I didn't realize that I (we) was/were so "hot"/"cool".

    Cheers

    A little guidance here. Exactly how to we enter this on our resumes?

    One of my idiot friends put "Time's Person of the Year" under Awards and Distinctions, because Time's Person of the Year a couple years ago was "You" (Facebook, YouTube, etc.)

    So a bunch of y'all can say you were person of the year TWICE and now are on RS' Hot List!

    Default Sorry D…

    I just seem to have skill sets that are both irrelevant and irreverent…
