efg, funny you mentioned paul simon. i was listening to him on the radio the other day. i thought...does this guy have a song that i don't like? he's been writing great songs for nearly as long as paul has. he is one of the all time greats, i think.
back in the day, might have been in the mid-late 70's. there was a great SLN bit featuring paul simon and george harrison. it was the week after lorne michaels publicly offered john, paul, george and ringo $500 to reunite on his show. they could even give ringo less than his part, he said. allegedly, paul was in ny at john's apartment while watching this very show, and considered showing up at the studio. the following week george showed up expecting a reunion. mr michaels had to tell him it was just a joke... and...paul simon was already slated to be that weeks musical guest. so they performed together. great piece of live music...and live tv.
that was waaaaay off topic. sorry kids.
I want to tell her that I love her a lot, but I got to get a belly full of wine.
