I'm going to consider that statement an attempt at humour, because I'm the last person who would make an ethnic slur.

And heck, since I've never been drunk, I've never even slurred a word!

Oh, brother. I don't even think that way.
I made the "chasing windmills" analogy, because it seemed fitting. That Don Quixote was Spanish, and your screenname is Spanish-sounding was of no bearing.

Should I avoid all references to dead meat, while I'm at it? ;)

I think you're far more preoccupied with the fact that I'm a moderator, than I could ever be.
And I'd say I'm too modest for something to go to my head, but then that would sound immodest. :shrug:

By the way, the apostrophe goes between the "n" and "t" in "didn't." Fix that, or I'll have to edit your post... 'cause, ya know, all this power.....! ;) :laugh:

I've been told that I'm considerably more fun and easy-going in person than I come across here, and I imagine that's true.
Plus, I think how I'm viewed on The Ledge depends more on the individual doing the viewing. :shrug:

Either way, I not a prude or anything, but I just don't need substances to help me loosen up.
Although I wouldn't mind if a hunky masseuse with strong hands helped! :laugh:

They look really cool, but they definitely wouldn't look right on me. Even in a different color.
For some strange reason, I can't pull off anything that looks too modern.
I usually have to wear neutral colors (greys, browns, tans, olive greens) when it comes to shirts and trousers, and just more "traditional" styled things, in general.

My "Clark Kent" frames need to go though!

lemow. By the way, just about a week ago i figured out where your name is from. I've been falling in love with Angel, then I got the video, saw that she was saying "trackaghost through the fog, babeh" when before, I thought she was saying "It's like a ghost through the fog, bebeh" Anyway, cool name - wanna go out? :laugh:

But yes, track a ghost is from Angel. I always loved that line and I think it was the original name of the song (why did they change it?).

Anyhoo, most people round here know my real name is Sharon, so you don't have to call me trackaghost all the time, I think I was just desperately trying to think of something different when I chose that handle.

So, pick you up at 8? ;) :laugh:

No, I'll pick you up...Gawd, I hate pushy chicks! :mad: :laugh:

Romy, you've decided me. I like Beautiful Child and was hesitant to vote for it in favor of SMAP. But now you're messing with my personal favorite, TEFM. You've gone too far!

My vote is for Beautiful Child.

So, come on, let's try, before they join their forces again and kick out one of the best Tusk tracks.

Count me in. I want to change my vote from "Walk A Thin Line" to "That's Enough For Me". It's almost as bad as that other stinker song that's been "saved" so many times. :)

How curious that all of a sudden people with a grand total of one or two votes are signing on to vote on this, as if they joined the Ledge expressly for this purpose. Is TV that boring these days?
