What exactly does "Honkin' on Bobo" mean? LOL!

I went to the Aerosmith concert last Thursday night. Cheap Trick opened for them.

I know you are all green with envy now, lol.

No freaking idea, but the CD is great. (Actually I do have an idea, considering the cover art. It's a lipstick mark on a harmonica. As I always tell DD, you do the math)

The CD is a complilation of classic blues songs done by Aerosmith. The songs are torqued up a bit, and are heavy with bass and drums, but are all still quite recognizable. If you like the blues, and that classic old Aerosmith sound, you'll love this.

I said that Mick Jagger is older than my father, and to stop while she still could.

She put down my new CDs and left. Smart kid.

yeah - have had a similar thing here- - unfortunately someone absconded with one of my three volume set of Led Zepplin - and I've never recovered it.... grrrrr

I *love* messing with people's heads when they think I should have "outgrown" listening to rock by now. One of my favorite responses is, "Hey, if Mick Jagger can still play it, I can still listen to it!" I also like stuff that's more recent than when I was in high school (lots of techno), which for some reason seems to confuse them even more.

OMG! I'm still laughing. Your DD and my DDs sound so much alike! They can't believe all the new music I listen to. They can't even believe that I'm a "metal head." They are almost mortified by that! LOL

I told them once when I stepped off the bus in the army I had blue hair and was punked out. They didn't believe me until they found an old picture of me.

I also like stuff that's more

You are speaking the truth there. I put in some new CDs I purchased a while back and my oldest DD was mortified that I knew what they were saying in the techno stuff. LOL I love to get them.

I am! I love Cheap Trick! They still rock! And one of the Florida theme parks is using their "Surrender" in a commercial!

Oh, it's not the *kids* who freak out -- it's the people my own age!

Funny story (though perhaps not as funny as Kathy's): A few years ago, I wanted to stop by the mall on my way home from work. As I was nearing the mall, the radio started playing AC/DC, so I cranked it a bit and rolled my window down. Then I drove into the covered parking, which as you know will amplify anything like that. So I'm parking, and in the next row another woman, just a bit older than me, is also parking. She gets out first, and I can clearly see the "Kids these days!" frown as she looks toward the blaring music... and then she sees

*me*. Nearly her own age, wearing business clothes, and listening to That Awful Stuff. The change of expression was absolutely hilarious!

First concert I ever attended. I had to go with my friend W., and her boyfriend, who was four years older than we were. Her mother [rightly] figured that my presence would quash any thought of ditching me and going to say, a hotel, instead.

So, I stood on my seat in the old Boston Garden and danced my feet off, while W. and her boyfriend smooched the concert away. Poor boyfriend, one of the conditions was that he had to pay for everything - so he got to buy three expensive concert tickets, dinner, parking, tee shirts, drinks, everything - and all he got was a little kissing in such a "romantic atmosphere."

Kathy N-V

LOL.... ahh, the joys of first loves..

I just heard the The Beastie Boys have a new CD out, and that it's awesome.

Also, that they're all over 40.

Now even *I* feel old! How can the Beastie Boys be over 40?

Moxley paid for *everything* when we went out. If he was broke, we stayed in and I cooked him a nice dinner (by "nice" I mean, "could have gone to a good restaurant for that price" though he didn't need to know that) but no way did I EVER pay for anything when we were out. It's one of the things that won me! I'd never had anyone be a gentleman for me before. And he was.

Kalera -- I know how you feel. Vince, who I imported from Ohio to help me with Carol's house, is like that. We were just friends, and it was Carol and her daughter Courtney who convinced me to date him. They think he is the nicest man they have ever met. I swear, I think they like him more than me, LOL. And, Carol has never liked anyone I have dated before!

But was sold me was this -- I keep four or five buckets of wood in the garage, to keep it dry and handy in case I want to build a fire. It was rainy and cold when I moved to CA and the heat didn't work, so the fire was a big deal then. Vince made a fire one night and went through two buckets of wood. I put the buckets outside the front door, meaning to fill them back up with wood and put them in the garage before we left that day for Utah, so that it would be dry and available when I came back home. (I've been known to go outside in my underwear to pick up wood in the middle of the night.....but that is another story). I also had the empty paint cans outside the front door, to put in the landfill when it got light and I could see my way to the landfill (I have my own landfill. Also another story).

When I got up the next morning, Vince had cleaned out the fireplace, taken the paint to the landfill, filled up both buckets with wood and put them in the garage, done the dishes and was sweeping the floor. I live in a sandy area, and I sweep and mop the floor every day. I went to do my "chores" and noticed that he had already done everything I meant to do the next morning. Without being asked, without being yelled at, without me even conceiving that he might help me with these things. I just intended to do them myself. I looked at him and realized that no one has ever done stuff like that for me before. I keep telling Carol -- "It is just like dating me!" because he is so much like me -- kind, considerate, and does things to help without being told. I can't imagine finding a better man. That was the weekend I decided that I was going to keep him. Things have been very different with us since then. He is such a good man. I hope I can live up to his image and be equally good to him.

haw haw haw! Madonna -- over 45. I feel ancient. I mean, I think of her as a kid, even though she's nearly my age.

TWO of the Beatles are dead (even though one was cut down before his time). I feel weird when I hear about all this stuff. I never aged past 30! Really! What the hell????? ~~ Sooz
