Michele 1 #51 March 30, 2004 Quote "HOSEA can you see...." I used to think it was: "Jose, can you see By the Danzerlee light"... I spent lots of time trying to figure out what "danzerlee" was, thinking it was some sort of special lamp Jose needed, and worried that Jose was a very important person who couldn't see without it, and we'd all be doomed. Then when I first discovered music on the radio (it had only been talk radio, parents limited my access), I thought there was a really large auditorium somewhere that the popular bands hung out in, and played live each time there was a song. This threw me for a loop when some band person died, and then I heard him sing a song on the radio!!?? I was sure there were ghosts, and that musicians never died... Just two of the many interesting moments of discovery in my world ...

HeatherB 0 #52 March 30, 2004 I can think of two: Song lyric... Correct:"Dirty deeds, done dirt cheap" My version: "Dirty deeds, thunder cheek" (A boyfriend caught me saying it that way in the car one time, a few years back) And when I was little, my mom would always say, "Your room looks like a bomb hit it!" I always thought to myself, "What is a bomhidit?" I pictured some sort of big, hairy animal....I never asked, I just thought she was wierd. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Vertifly 0 #53 March 30, 2004 Oh, I'm the worst at song lyrics. Here's one: My version: "...to walk along, knowing it's three degrees!" Whitesnake: "...to walk along, down this street of dreams!" That was at about age 17. My friends are still not letting me live this down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Deuce 1 #54 March 30, 2004 I learned very late that people you care about and have a great deal of respect for will look you and your family right in the eyes as they plan to destroy you. I learned late that hatred was an elemental force that can be attached to you by a quirk of fate. I learned late that my capacity to be a very bad man is more than compensated by my natural inclination to be good. I'm comfortable having the capacity for evil, unused. I'm also comfortable using it, when forced. It's weird. And hard to explain. And learned late in life.

But maybe I just didn't understand the lyrics. Isn't there one Yes song that has the line, "I need a lot...of homo sailors!"

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites jumpinfarmer 0 #57 March 30, 2004 QuoteIn 3rd grade, a bunch of us were singing that song "Banana banana fo fanna, me my mo manna, banana" (know the one I mean? where you can interchange any word you want). Well anyway, one of the little devilish bastards in the class goes, try it with the word "truck". So I'm like "truck truck bo buck, banana fanna fo fuck me my mo muck...truck". And everyone started laughing/gasping, yet I had no idea what I did wrong until I asked some kid at recess why everyone laughed at me. That was the day I learned the "f-word" 3rd grade...apparantly most kids learn it earlier than that?!? Sorta the same thing happened to me. I never knew what the F word ment till like maybe 4th grade when I said it to the school principal. i was in his office for swearing at the teacher of all things. I managed to talk my way out of it though, pled ignorance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites HeatherB 0 #58 March 30, 2004 You're not a dumbass, people who have said something like the following are the dumbasses! "Me? I'm not pregnant! It would have to be Immaculate Conception!" (insinuating that she hasn't had sex in a long time or is a virgin) The Immaculate Conception has nothing to do with Mary being a virgin when she had Jesus!!! It is the doctrine that Mary was born with no original sin. Nothing to do with her giving birth to Jesus without having had sex. Every time I hear someone say something like that, I want to strangle them. I'm not a devout Catholic, but it still bugs me for some reason.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites SpeedRacer 1 #61 March 30, 2004 yeah the immaculate conception is a popular, um...MIS-conception. It originated from the stereotype that Christians are supposed to think that sex is "dirty", so if Jesus was conceived without sex taking place, then it was an "immaculate conception." anyway, that's the reason people believe this. but of course you're right: the Immaculate Conception actually refers to Mary, not Jesus.
