One smells great and tastes bad (without salt and butter), the other smells bad and, uh...never mind.

Probably just as well I don't really like popcorn anyway, then.

Ralph's side of the island.
My dentist told me if I had been born just a decade or so later, I wouldn't have cavities because dental sealants changed the modern world. I'm happy for my son. I hope he gets to cash in on all the gold crowns in my mouth.

:tongue

Me neither. That's quite a popular look in SA. Especially in the Cape, where I live now. :D

I'm always slightly amused by the American obsession with having unnaturally perfect, brilliant-white gnashers. Is it a status-symbol kind of thing?

I don't care so much for the 'brilliant-white' part (they do look... I dunno... somehow... alien)... but having straight teeth that are more aligned than not saves pain and money in the long run. Glow-in-the-dark white teeth give me the heebie-jeebies!

Terrific lyrics by Jimmy Webb. My hearing was already damaged in the late 'sixties, so maybe it's why I recall Richard Harris screeching like a sabertooth trapped in the tar through the higher notes of "MacArthur Park."

Fine actor, though, great general, and still beautiful park. :applause:

I believe the lyrics were written while they were stoned out of their minds.


Much like a lot of '60's stuff, I guess. Nothing to get hung about. :Shrug:
