It occurs to me that nowadays the only "F" word I'm interested in is the one that indicates "Forward" so please, no more "R"s

Hey lopc! I hear you lookin' for me, bebe. I'm sorry I'm late, been kinda tied up lately.Ignoring the completely amateurish swearin' goin on roun heah (if all y'all wanna swear, please! Do it with some FEELING! ), to address your initial issues:1. Yep, we all get down as dirt sometimes. It's normal. I can almost set my calendar by my low times. The ticket is.....are you still gettin' something outta writing? If so, who cares if you get forwards or not or if you got too many "ime" rhymes or whatever? You can polish as you need it or get someone here to take a look at it. Believe me, there's always somebody waitin' to tell you where you went wrong. 2. I'm gonna shoot my foot off here by sayin' yet one more time that taxi is simply a service. That's all it is. I get that folks are really into each other here (and a fun bunch they are, I'm into 'em too!) but they're here cuz it's providing a service, bottom line. And some of the screeners could really use a good boot out on the street, you ask me. Hey Mike, you listenin'? You can refund my money, boot me off the site or whatever but that's what I think.3. As for your tune (sorry, I digressed up there), love the country chorus......I think the male could try to phrase a little bit better to give it some life. Chits might have something about them singing together more at the end. I don't think it needs an overhaul. Keep the chorus, see if you can get some better phrasing, see if they'll sing together a little more. If your instincts tell you that you should revisit the lyrics, revisit by all means, honey. Liked that song. It's country and you know that ain't my field but I thought the chorus had that easy-singin', foot-tappin thing going on that country is famous for. BTW, your female vox is very very nice. Anyway, sorry to digress there, jes trying to hit all the points everyone else made without repetition. And I'm sure I'm gonna catch hell for my opinion about some of taxi's screeners (which is why we sometimes end up feelin' down about writin' but not always). Whateva.

Rules.4. You agree, through your use of these boards, that you will not use these boards to post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, obscene, threatening, invasive Johnnydean wrote:That more or less takes care of it.What we need now is an interpretation of these word, abusive, vulgar, obscene. The man is right on. I think I can offer an interpretation. Oh wait........Johnny interpreted the rule in this post. If one person among hundreds is offended, it is a breach of the rules. It doesn't matter that I was the one he chose to say enough is enough. The gentleman said enough is enough, and I respect that. Toward that end, Johnny, I truly apologize for offending you. I can't apologize for anyone else, but I hope my apology stands as an indication that it is not my intent to offend one soul. That goes for these boards as in life. Please accept my apology as heartfelt and sincere.Wanna know the true definition of democracy? It is three wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.I think we will all agree that there are no sheep here.Again, my sincere apology. It takes a strong voice to put things right, and your voice is strong.IBANEZ, the wheelbarrow thing was great. Not musically orientated, but classic.Let's all move on. Heinsite has some idea for restructure of the BIOTM work. He's a good writer, I'm sure we'll come to an agreement.Me and the Jeepster got something on TLPF going on, having fun with that.Tom Aragon has the coolest icons going, and if Alanis Morrissette didn't lay down the vocals for "BREATHE" I'll eat my hat.

Hey Girl! Missed ya. Hope you're doing okey-dokey! Sorry, can't apologize for breathing. I set a goal to live forever, and so far so good! Yeah, I play nice with collaborators. Lotsa good things come out of mutual respect toward a common goal.
