LOL Kinda funny, then, that he quoted one of its most famous songs.  (I'll tell you what would put me out on the ledge -- having to listen even one more time to that Gods-awful, cheese-ball, glorified tourist advert for NYC that Jay-Z and Alicia Keys did a few years ago...)

Nopes, it got stuck in his head and that's what drove him to it >raspberry< (I'll tell you what would put me out on the ledge -- having to listen even one more time to that Gods-awful, cheese-ball, glorified tourist advert for NYC that Jay-Z and Alicia Keys did a few years ago...) Any chart music outside HWW's lists just pass me by. Just as well by the sound of it.

LOL  Yeah, most modern chart music is dross. Some of them are guilty pleasures, though. I enjoyed doing that recent toilet-humor parody in the Anywhere Machine forum of Ellie Goulding's "On My Mind" ("Out Your Behind".) That said, I genuinely and sincerely love Ellie's US charts breakthrough hit, "Lights."

I do enjoy some modern songs, but some of them make me turn the radio off every time they come on

^^Me too, Ibby. In fact, the modern song that finally made me just throw up my hands and say, "I'm too old for this...stuff," was that 2015 Charlie Puth/Meghan Trainor duet, "Marvin Gaye."
Hey, kids, news flash, you're both *white*, and you're making Marvin roll over in his grave.
What the hell ever convinced John Legend to duet with Meghan Trainor?* I mean, I'm not a fan of Legend's music, but I used to think he was smarter and more together than most showbiz people (I give him a lot of credit for being the only black celebrity to call out a U.S. newspaper that published a virulently racist cartoon of Obama a few years ago. Gods know I agree with a lot of the criticism Obama gets, but even he doesn't deserve that kind of crap.)
*Don't anyone even bother answering. I already know, he obviously did it because it paid him lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Cheers, Ibby.  Memory does have a funny way of playing tricks on people. Earworms? Any little thing can trigger them. Songs you actually want to remember? Dig deep, deeper, deeper...still can't remember.

So true. Too bad memory can be stubborn.

Memories light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were.
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again, tell me, would we, could we
Memories may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember we simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter we will remember
Whenever we remember the way we were.
Big Dog! Big Dog! Bow Wow Wow!

Quis, pardon my bluntness, but your choice of "Memories" as a song to quote was a bit...on-the-nose. (See what I did there?)

I just finished watching all six of the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan movies. In the special feature there was a parody trailer for Schnarzan the Conqueror with Jimmy Durante.

I remember watching George of the Jungle. Brendan Fraser got really lean for that.

My eyebrows have gotten bushy and when I get a haircut, the stylist trims them for me. I am also getting hair growing out of my ears and my nose (although to a lesser extent than my ears)

I usually shave every 2-3 weeks.
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

It's very itchy when it gets longer so I shave it off. I prefer looking clean shaven with 2-3 day old stubble anyway.

A certain over-the-hill Latina bombshell who is *rumored* to be secretly ashamed of her curves, and who *may* be hard to recognize from recent pictures, because she *might* have had even more plastic-surgery re-upholstering done on herself than Madonna, has been *alleged* more than once to be a secret practitioner of dark magic, complete with animal and human sacrifices.
Yeah, even though I hate her and I make fun of her, she still scares me enough that I won't ever refer to her by name. Self-preservation, don'cha know.
