Sexy & 17 - Stray Cats (Lots of guesses for Rock This Town! Two cool things about this video... the nerds in the class all snapping their fingers in unison just before the start of the second verse, and girls who didn't know when to stop putting on eye makeup. Gotta love the 80's!)

You forgot to give me my Supermax points for being the only person (including you!) to correctly use the + rather than an ampersand or the word and. If you don't have any extra, you can appropriate them from estonut's total, I'm sure the nitpicker in him would approve.....ha!

I hadn't noticed that designation before. What the hell's up with that anyway? That's about as messed up as Prince's 2's, 4's and U's, which I always make sure to sanitize from any Purple Rain era lyrics of his I use.....

Fanny gets 3 JJC points for that interesting factoid about Herbie Handjob's mannequins...

See what interesting things you'd learn if you turned it over to the Greatest shows on Vh1 every once in a while?

Of course, if I did watch those shows, and had picked up that interestig bit of knowledge, you wouldn't have gotten the JJC points!

No HSoB, noting that songs 5 and 6 begin with the same 6 words does NOT get you a point..... it gets you 3 JJC points instead!

My head damn near exploded trying to figure out how "Got My Mind Set On You" could possibly start with "There I was, completely wasted, out..." No matter how many times I tried, I just can't imagine George fitting that into the song.

Now I get it.

Estonut gets 2 JJC points for also noting the correct VotY winner....

Geez, lbeez! I totally pander to you by including 2 anecdotes and references to Rihanna, OJ, Larry Craig, John Hinckley, Boy George, Michael Jackson and 10cc, and you don't even notice (or care). I should just stick with "Nope, Nada & Zilch."

Maybe I subconsciously subtracted humor points since 10cc is actually Eyegor's favorite LS group. I would love to know why you associated them with me though....

From skimming through previous LS over the years, I thought it was a running deal that every LS had to include "The Things We Do for Love" or "I'm Not in Love" (I forget which, probably the former). I guess that's an Eyegor thing, then, not you.

You didn't like the Hinckley or Boy George references? I thought they were [for SC]aiiiight[/for SC].

I'm not sure whether you mean me or Second Chance, but I will be happy to give you dozens of special SC points.

What are they good for? Absolutely nuthin'.

Maybe you can give them away on Craig's List.

I meant you. I call her "2C." This was just additional ribbing on yesterday's all right/alright comments. You left out the most recent one, where the "l" is not pronounced at all.

Oh, no. I didn't miss "aiiight," as said by Randy Jackson, dawg. If he says it, it must be correct. I nevertheless maintain the right and obnoxiousness to correct his spelling.
