Makes me put my hands in the air and say Wheee! Robin - Now don't think I said I didn't like the blues. But if it gets me free MP3's from you, okay.(And, yeah, wouldn't that be a great anthem?) Lauren - Well, I've been hearing B-B practice around the house for two days now, and I'm beginning to think this song may be out of his range. I have to keep bopping Green-Hand on the head for laughing at him. Aurelio - Ha! That's great, you wild rat! Sarah - Thanks! And I'm glad you'll be here to see who Lance is bringing to the park. Lori - I'll be chewing my fingernails and hoping he doesn't come off the ice crying. Carolyn - Ooh, high-fives! Lance - I kind of like a few ups and downs myself.

You mean The Islanders aren't those guys who vote someone off if they can't find the special hidden coconut or don't "get along"? I'd really much rather picture Bach-boy singing the National Anthem in a snappy Hawaiian shirt and accompanied by Don Ho. Now THAT would be a performance! And as far as all the other stuff - corporations have different goals than we creative folks. If they can get us all in the same box then they only have to build one - it's basic economics. Not much fun though. They keep all their goodies inside the box to make us all want to live there, but I'm happy to be one of the wild rats that chewed his way out. It's a leaner but more rewarding life. It’s hockey, huh? You mean The Islanders aren’t those guys who vote someone off if they can’t find the special hidden coconut or don’t “get along”?
