Right.

*FUCK* no.

Exactly!
Damn boy, you're on a roll as of late.
No offense, but get the fuck out of my head!

Ok, I'm checking my home and office for bugs.
I was going to send a quick (ha!) post today titled simply "It *is* in head".
Really.
For the past few mornings, the very first thing I'm thinking of is the chorus to RGLB.
First thing!

I dig it.
My wife digs it (and she ain't no Who push over).

>I think Pete's on the right track.  "The Who remain 
>The Who, & The Who remain on rails."

That said, I do have a part of me that yearns <snicker> for that "driver'.
That, 'grab you by the throat and beat the shit out of you' song that just *can't* be ignored.
But, that yearning is a pretty selfish thing, in that I desire that more for acclaim reasons than for musical satisfaction reasons.
I'm already satisfied.

Mmmmmmmm.
Satisfied, but not full.
