That's no vein (jeesh you guys are harsh).

This is a vein (and there are plenty worse...)

I've always thought Sting had a sophisticated sound in his solo career. He's even written music about doing good - not bad for a "Hoover". I guess he's grown (up) a little!

Please, PLEASE do NOT prove your point by posting worse.

I enjoy this thread and that would ruin it. How about some gratuitous female flesh again...preferably NOT covering circulatory maladies. Or perhaps more kickazz cars? How about a combo plate; a Woody? (repost admittedly)

I've met Stevie Wonder a couple of times...even had lunch at his place in Calabasas. He doesn't need the trumpets...you can feel his presence before he even gets in the room. Quite amazing...

Dan, I suppose it wouldn't be good to tell you that I wasn't even thought of in 1974. Oh well. I wouldn't call it old, I call it aging to perfection like a bottle of vintage wine.

Yeah, the Old Guys Rule clothing line sells license plate frames that say: "Old Guys Rule" on top and "Aged to Perfection" below. They've also got one that says, "Its Good to be King" below! Of course THAT'S the one I bought!
