Thankies for the Paul Collins, C2W?. Partied hard with those guys several times back in the day. Good times, great band, fond memories!

Quasi - Ghost Dreaming
Quasi - I Never Want To See You Again

[Allegro]

OMG. How could I have missed this for my repertoire?
I think my grandma might have played it in my presence
when I was little, and I hope I walked outta the room.

Thanks, barracuda, for a good chortle and !

I've been trying to remember who did (whatever song it was that I once loved so much), which I can now finally say was and is "Back of My Hand" by the Jags since, like, 1993.

hey C2W why didn't you just ask for the name of "that song that sounded like a poor man's Elvis Costello?" ...would've known it immediately.

Well, now that you put it that way....Hmm. Oh, wait! I know.

I'd have hated to be an imposition on you. See, in this wacky village where I grew up, they had this saying: "Questions are a burden to others. Answers, --" Oh, fuck. Gotta run.

Picked up on streetcorners, in all likelihood. I tried not to dwell on it. Plus, I'm an idiot. There's always that, of course. Pure gold, you can take it to the bank.

uh huh - sort of like "why do we say an alarm went off when it comes on"...."why's there only one Monopolies Commission?".....that sort of thing.

Sometimes. Now that you put it that way. Again. If you hadn't given examples, I probably would have said: Sort of like "Why is Russia like that, anyway?" Which I now realize is not so much a more representative example as it is a more memorable one.

But it's just not natural to accept that one is as forgettable as one is, I suspect. I'll have to ask myself some searching questions about that one.
