WMD's - Weapons of Manilow Destruction
 
Seems some Syndney authorities have gotten very nasty in their efforts to drive away unwanted loiterers. They are using Barry Manilow music to drive cruisers away from one Cook Park Reserve, much to the consternation of the neighbors that also have to listen to it.

"Barry's our secret weapon," Rockdale Deputy Mayor Bill Saravinovski told The Daily Telegraph newspaper, four weeks after the start of the effort. "It seems to be working."

Early on in my flying career I flew Barely Manenough, as we called him. The rest of the group was excellent and he was nice but as I remember him and his boyfriends playing around in the stateroom on the airplane, and the look of our flight attendent cleaning it up, its not a memory that I really want.

His music should be banished to being play in elevators, and cleaning up city parks IMHO.

Could be worse...could be Streisand...

Higgins you bastard!

Manilow isn't that way, he's just experimenting...for his entire life.

My Mom was a huge fan...don't get me started. ;)

I'm still waiting to hear the Michael Jackson stories once these guys are at liberty to talk...:cool:

My understanding is that it is ok with their religion unless it is a muslim child.

C'mon! Who on this thread wasn't in front of the TV when MTV premiered the "Thriller" video in '84? :D
