I just signed up for online audio books from our library. All though, I am not listening to this right now (audio book); I have tried reading it at least 3 if not more times. I noticed that the audio book in available for free to listen to...BUT; since I have tried to read to this book at maybe 4 times; but couldn't, it's like an itch that you can't reach. Am I the only one that has not been able to complete James Joyce's "Ulysses"? A friend recommended "Atlas Shrugged" to me several years (maybe 40) ago. I read it word for word and hated it, it was the most boring book I have ever read, My favorite authors are James Clavell and Louis Lamour. I have read all of the Lamour (over 100 books) at least once. My most favorite is Shogun by Clavell. I have read that book MANY times. Tried to find the Warriors; but I guess they only made the Coney Island gang movie without a book.

So, long story short has anyone ever tackled Ulysses all the way through?
 
38 Special. I just watched a Professor Rock video and found that these guys did very well in the '80s. I have their greatest hits album and every song is good. No iffy ones.

 


I used to watch this guy a lot before, but he isn't putting anything new out. Ran across this song and bought the vinyl LP.
 
In 1990, my ship pulled in to Geraldton, Australia, alone, while the USS Midway battle group went to Perth. Unfortunately for us, Perth was only 90 miles away, so all the girls went there. All we had was a bunch of guys that wanted to party and drink, which was fine. At a party that the city hosted, when this song came up, everybody shut up and started singing.

 
My mother was born on the Goingsnake Indian Reservation before Oklahoma was a state. Goingsnake later became part of Stillwater. The Cherokee Nation of my Grandmother was settled there and Flint was to the south. My grandmother's name translates to Bunny. This song is for her and my lost relatives
 


I have aspects of that generation, conformity and traditionalism, but that might be from my military background.
 
Having nothing to do with music, I am watching the Arizona Diamondbacks having batting practice against the Colorado Rockies! Dbacks 7, Rockies 2 in the top of the 9th. I think one more loss after this one and the Rocks will have another 100 loss season. At least the Broncos won their second game.
 
This could have been a rock opera; but it's just a segment of Pirates of the Caribbean sung by a up beat opera group. To me this song is so cool.

The Rockies have some good young position players; the problem is pitching. They will have to "grow" their own pitchers, not many free agent pitchers will want to pinch half their games in Coor's field.

I'm listening to this
as I watch baseball on MLB.TV
 
I just heard this song recently and it is probably older than dirt; but since the first time; I listened to about 30 times. This is really great and I like the beat and noise.
 
Not too old, 1989. It was released after the drummer had his car crash and lost one arm.
