TexasBestGrok: Shame, Shame, Shame. . .

Shame, Shame, Shame. . .

I meant to blog on this a couple of weeks ago, when the LlamaButchers first pointed me to it.

Things I'm not ashamed to admit, but probably should be:

I am a huge Neil Diamond fan, even if he has questionable politics.
I played AD&D in High School. And still have the books. And dice. And miniatures.
Barry Manilow? Musical genius (for his genre). Really. Just listen to Copacabana with an open mind.
I know how to buy women's clothing. My wife's a knockout but is too modest to acknowledge it, so I occasionally have to buy her things to help her see herself the way I do.
I know the derivation and meanings of the words "fannish" and "'dane."
Despite the preceding sentence, I've never been to a "Con."
I like the Yes album Talk.

From a dating book I have: the definition of Romantic when listed in the personals-Owns extensive Barry Manilow collection.

all right, you shamed me into it. Talk isn't in the cd jukebox, so last night i popped it into one of the empty slots and relistened. still can't say i like it as much as the rest, though i do like it better than Union. my #1 son is a prog rock fan, so it was a nice variation for him. after that we put on the first half of Lamb Lies Down On Broadway, which he also hadn't heard before.

by the way, anyone with fast internet access should frequent auralmoon.com for excellent prog rock internet radio.
