2 1/2 days...it's hard to sleep when you're in labor..... Funny thing, though. His birth was hard work, but for a while after my son was born, I wasn't tired at all, I had a wonderful time meeting him. Then suddenly I pretty much collapsed.

Baptist bra A man walked into the Women's Department of Macy's in New York City. He told the saleslady "I would like a Baptist bra for my wife, size 36B." With a quizzical look the saleslady asked? "What kind of bra?" He repeated "A Baptist Bra" - She said to tell you that she wanted a Baptist Bra, and that you would know what she wanted. "Ah, now I remember" said the saleslady. "We don't get as many requests for them as we used to. Mostly our customers lately want the Catholic bra, or the Salvation Army bra, or the Presbyterian type." Confused, and a little flustered, the man asked "So, what are the differences?" The lady responded. "It is all really quite simple. The Catholic type supports the masses. The Salvation Army lifts up the fallen, the Presbyterian type keeps them staunch and upright." He mused on that information for a minute, and asked "So, what is the Baptist type for?" "They," she replied, "make mountains out of molehills." Bra Sizes: Have you ever wondered why A, B, C, D, DD, E, F,G, and H are the letters used to define bra sizes? If you have wondered why, but couldn't figure out what the letters stood for, it is about time you became informed! {A} Almost Boobs. (B} Barely there. {C} Can't Complain! {D} Dang! {DD} Double Dang! {E} Enormous! {F} Fake. {G} Get a Reduction. {H} Help me, I've fallen and I can't get up!!

So the husband and wife developed this coding system. Everytime they want to do it, one of them asks the other "want to do the laundry?" So one night, the family was watching movies. The husband leans over to the wife and asks"want to do the laundry?" She told him "after the movie dear". So later that night they are in the bedroom. The wife asks the husband, "so are you ready to do the laundry?" The husband replies, "after I have a shower, dear". So half hour later, he gets out, dries himself off and comes into the bedroom. At this point the wife was pissed. "I've been waiting a half hour, are we gonna do the laundry or what?" He says, "sorry dear - it was a small load so I did it by hand." Gee, lately ours is "Time to wrap presents!!!!

Thanks, BSG!!!!

I think that it's all just a convention for them to give credit in the usual way because it keeps arguments down. We all know that they all contribute to the music, and Geddy edits Neil's lyrics. It wouldn't be shocking to find that Alex occasionally make an editorial comment on lyrics. So the credits are just generalizations.... Dammit, I was hoping to start a fight... Freaking educated level-headed pacifists always getting in the way It's all an evil plot, I tell you!!! For the man to keep the drummers down!!! in thier place!! what about a good drummer who can't write lyrics! what does he/she get credit for?? nada zilch nothing!!! You can't cash a generalization at the bank!! Ahhhh!!! I'm down!!!!!The pain!!!! Sorry, no fight here. I think Neil is great in all his roles, and I also bet he throws in comments to Alex and Geddy about their parts too....

Hey Rush1 !! Welcome! Yes, Alex in leather is a sight to behold....

All these little things are some of the reasons why we can listen to Rush over and over and over and over and not get bored....it's in the details!

From Geekpress.com... A couple is golfing one day on a very, very exclusive golf course lined with million dollar houses. On the third tee the husband says, "Honey, be very careful when you drive the ball. Don't knock out any windows it'll cost us a fortune to fix." The wife tees up and promptly shanks it right through the window of the biggest house on the course. The husband cringes and says, "I told you to watch out for the houses! All right, let's go up there, apologize and see how much this is going to cost." They walk up and knock, and a voice says, "Come in." When they open the door, they see glass all over the floor and a broken bottle lying on its side in the foyer. A man on the couch says, "Are you the people that broke my window?" "Uh, yeah," the husband says. "Sorry about that." "No, actually I want to thank you. I'm a Genie that was trapped for a thousand years in that bottle. You've released me. I'm allowed to grant three wishes. I'll give you each one wish, and I'll keep the last one for myself." "OK, great!" the husband says. "I want a million dollars a year for the rest of my life." "No problem - it's the least I could do. And you, what do you want?" the Genie says, looking at the wife. "I want a house in every country of the world," she says. "Consider it done." "And what's your wish, Genie?" the husband asks. "Well, since I've been trapped in that bottle, I haven't had sex with a woman in a thousand years. My wish is to sleep with your wife." The husband looks at the wife and says, "Well, we did get a lot of money and all those houses, honey. I guess it's OK with me if it's OK with you." So the genie takes the wife upstairs and ravishes her for two hours. Afterward, he rolls over, looks at the wife, and says, "How old is your husband anyway?" "He's 35, why?", she asks. "And he still believes in Genies?"

It reminds me of the Quatermass Experiment It's a representation of the Eye of the Gods from the cover of the Horslips album "The Book of Invasions - A Celtic Symphony". The album cover is in my sig, and if you look at the eye on the cover, you'll notice the symbol resting in the iris. Horslips!!! Ah, someone else listens to Horslips!!!

Equality 7-2521 is like a less developed Howard Roark... then there's Hank Reardon...
