The Beeg-ers have made me happy on several occasions. I'm just not cool enough to not like the song Staying Alive...

Oh me too - I just get darker in the summer -but I'm never pale or anything...

I used to tan a lot more when I was a kid - I mean I'd get DARK - but not so much anymore...just a bit browner I do, however, have a perma-tan line from my Teva's - it's never gone away

Teva line!
I have bikini bottom line..my real skin isn't actually very dark, but it is a little olivy, therefore i tan immediately and darkly. You appear to have naturally darker pigment than i. Which makes sense. I'm really just white with a tiny bit of slightly darker things thrown in...

Stayin' Alive... A classic... One you play loudly in the car in summer...

They are awesome songwriters.. They just got stereotyped for about 20 years... Their final album as a trio "This Is Where I Came In" is a very good effort..

I have typically British skin.. Pale then straight to boiled lobster if I don't cream up in the sun...

If I use good sunblock I can get a nice colour though.. Hang on, sounds a bit girly all this tanning business.... I'm retracting my comments...

Yeah, that's right! So, I should totally blame you for my fall in BK.

LOL

Talk about embarrassing.

You're not boring, we had a great day in Londontown.

Wait, I have one of their albums.....never mind. I just hate disco, although surprisingly the majority of their music wasn't actually disco.

I know Spicks and Specks.. Yes they do seem stuck in the disco era in most minds although of course they did so much more.. Two of my favorite songs are Bee Gees songs, "You Win Again" and "For Whom The Bell Tolls"..

LOL, Did I tell about the time that I worked in the accounting dept? We did wire transfers and you would need a special # for wires that were going outside the USA. You don't know how many times I had employees from other branches call me to find out the # for New Mexico because it was an international wire transfer.

I had to explain to them that New Mexico was US STATE! DUH. I had one co-worker that thought California was a foreign country.

I have heard many stories about people from New Mexico running into folks who didn't know it was a state - I thought people were past that - especially with all the attention NM got in this past election - but no

People will never get past being stupid.

I happen to LOVE the BeeGees, both the old and the disco music. And back in the day, Barry was quite the hearthrob. Too bad about Andy tho.....

my fave BeeGees tune is To Love Somebody, which Janis did a great cover of...
