But I'm with you on the Start Trek snews and Paris' latest belt-notch--since when did just being rich, boring and slutty become reason enough for fame?

You know, I've always been meaning to form an opinion on Jimmy cracking corn. I guess I'll just use yours, though, until I can come up with my own.

Dennis Miller had a good one-liner about "Jimmy Crack Corn and I don't care."

Something like: "Now what the hell kind of attitude is that!"

I like the Smothers Brothers routine - they are singing the song and Tom continues, "I don't care, I don't care, I don't care ... "

Dick says, "that's not how the song goes."

Tom: "I don't care."

I'd point out that our host strongly discourages posting lyrics you don't own the copyrights to. But really, I don't care if you get in trouble for it. [Dont Know]

Oh? I thought the restriction was posting huge chunks or the whole thing of a lyric.

I remember something like that from the lyric thread...

I'll go check and delete the above if I was incorrect.

Thanks for the warning.

Why do you even post here? I'm only posting here because I know that you do care about caring, otherwise you wouldn't post here. So I'm notifying you empathic, mellow slugs about this.

You know what? I don't give a bloody damn! Post all you damn well like!

Moose...question, I really couldn't bring myself to cut down to less in the Beatle one. It'd lose all sense of the quotation.

It's only 4 lines.

But is that too many? Should that kind of thing just not be used?

Oh, yeah...
not that I care

So...um, do you happen to LIKE country music? Why are you giving me all this grief. It's a frequin' country song because I said it is!

Sheesh.

I'll add a line about losing my dog and my truck or something.

Gimme a break!
