Nothing

[digit]

no, although it does look like that but what would be the point in getting some kinda glory on an internet forum ? so i could brag about it in the pub ?

i read album credits and in this case ive got the byrds cd and checked out the writers since i thought it was a mcguinn song. i had particular interest in this song since i thought it was one of their best. this is about 5 or 6 years ago..i could only remember that it was a duo who wrote it and i do remember thinking "ah those guys again"...doc pomus's name came up for some reason.

of course i googled it after posting.

ok, i'll forgive you. you win the prize, a complete set of boby's 2012 concert bootlegs which you have to actually listen to.

ok, they'll find a nice home beside my complete set of boby's 2009 boots that I was supposed to actually listen to.

the fact that you still think i cheated makes me wonder if i should be going to more pub quizzes. you dont get points for getting the tough questions half right ?

[digit]

of course the problem with pub quizzes is that you would probably be up against nerds with iphones built into their flys or something

i suspect you googled and are trying to mask it with the pomus guess. the reasoning being half the glory is better than none.

one last thing on this, if i do ever cheat, there wont be any of this half the glory thing, ill be going for full glory...if your gonna cheat cheat proper.

whats the second song they wrote on the soundtrack ?

turkey trot. plays on a jukebox or radio or something. it was a bit of a trick question, but it's on the list of credits at the end of the movie.

My 'Tales of a Rascal' book is on Amazon. If you can't afford to buy it just hang around this website & I'll keep adding hunks of it.

The guy is in his late seventies and is still nuttier than two Harveys in a sack.

fascinating article from the london review of books about the scandal:
www.lrb.co.uk/2012/10/27/andrew-ohagan/light-entertainment
apparently the bbc has been a nest of kiddie botherers for the last 70 years. and the police pick up poor old gary again (as if almost being beheaded for sex crimes in vietnam wasn't enough!). who's next on plod's list? my money is on fatty arbuckle.

Back in my day we just called it 'horseplay' and quickly forgot about it.
