Re: Happy Birthday ChainGang
I wonder if, when ChainGang was a child (he was just a Prisoner then, when he grew up and got bigger he became a ChainGang), there were public celebrations, and he thought people were celebrating his birthday, only to discover later on they were for Pearl Harbor Day?
Anyway here's a couple of appropriate birthday songs:
I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh
What hijacked my world that night
To a place in the past
We've been cast out of? oh oh oh oh
Now we're back in the fight
We're back on the train
Oh, back on the chain gang
All day long they work so hard
Till the sun is goin' down
Working on the highways and byways
And wearing, wearing a frown
You hear them moanin' their lives away
Then you hear somebody sa-ay
That's the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
What, you thought I was going to do "Happy Birthday" and "Birthday" by The Beatles? Naah, I got more class than that!

Re: Happy Birthday ChainGang
Happy birthday, CGG! You could teach all of a much-needed lesson in succinctness, but I don't think I'll ever be willing to give up my unwieldy paragraphs and awkward language. Still, this is your birthday so in your honor and in contrast to Brother Tdarcos I'm limiting this message to three sentences and a slogan.
