Guest Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Dont Forget the immortal line (repeated two or three times) in Crazy Things by Joe Douglas as our man sings 'TOSS OFF AND SHOUT AS LOUD AS I CAN'. Definitely strikes a chord that one, reminding me of the old joke about the difference between and egg and a w***......... You cant beat a w*** of course. Nuff said.
