I was drivin' to New Orleans, A friend of mine and I, Crusin' down to Mardi Gras, Driving eighty five. Listenin' to the radio, One of them trivia shows, Drivin' in a Mustang, With my mobile phone. The DJ asked a question, "We'll take caller number nine" I must have dialed that number, At least a dozen times. The question that he asked was: "What's it say upon, Smokey Bear's hat my friends, That's what this question's on." I finally got the DJ, He said "You're caller number nine!! Congratualions fella, You called us just in time!!" He again repeated the question, But said I answered wrong? The answer that I rendered was: "Hat Made In Hong Kong" He laughed and laughed until he sobbed, And though I answered wrong, Asked me if I want a job, Cuz my mind's really gone. |

That's where almost everything seems to be made these days, isn't it Toerag? Thoroughly enjoyed. The soul would have no rainbows, had the eyes no tears. |

You don't need a dj to tell you your mind is gone, boy. You got around a hundred people here to verify that one! |

I used to drive a Mustang convertible. I loved that car and enjoyed rolling down the highway with the radio blaring and me singing along ~ wearing a hat made in Hong Kong! As the DJ implied, you may not have a lotta sense ~ but I shore doos love yer sense of hoomah! Loves 'n hahas, Linda |
