Bon Jovi.

Remember how they showed how being a rock star was totally like being a cowboy? Their microphones were really "guns" and their tour bus was a "steel horse." People that saw Bon Jovi knew to be careful. Because their guitars were kind of rifles if you pretended hard enough. Also, they might rock your face.

Bon Jovi, I know how high you have to be to start believing things like that. I once told everyone my couch was a magic boat and the carpet was lava. But I have no idea how high you have to get before you start singing songs about it. I never recorded a song about me rocking faces on my magic couch boat and how much of a lava pirate it made me.

It was a nice try, Jon Bon, but nobody really thought you were a cowboy. And we sort of figured out how the only time rockers and cowboys have anything in common is when you change some of the words in our language to mean two totally different things. You might as well have been singing about how you guys were firemen. Like your monitor speakers were firehoses and no wait! You should have written a song about how you were Chewbacca! And like your bus is a big spaceship and the "loaded" guitar on your back is actually a backpack full of C3PO parts. An-and your microphone is a big chunk of meat attached to an Ewok net! Now that I think about it, being a rock star is exactly like being Chewbacca.

Having once been a couch pirate myself*, I would love to hear/read a song about your magic couch boat and its adventures on the seven shaggylavacarpets (with or without the face-rocking).

* (I probably wasn't a very good pirate; I never could get the fat and fuzzy orange-feathered cat-parrot to agree to perch on m'shoulder. He sang a damned fine shanty, though; yes, he sang a damned fine shanty.)

watch yourself! my orange cat/parrot is so good, he practically sings lava-sea-carpte chantys himself.

If you're not very careful, a pirate song will be forthcoming.

Yes! And he talked to me in my dreams last night. I think he was saying something along the lines of how much he likes milk.

Which is odd, because when he DOES crave it, and I give him some, he only takes a couple licks.

But he sang fine shanties all morning long. I stayed in bed all day :)

What fine old salt that Maximillian is!

Interesting that he just takes a bit... I'd think with his build that he'd enjoy a little gluttony now and then.

I can't say as I recall Newtie ever speaking to me in dreamland.. though I have thought about him in full puss-in-boots regalia.

How handy that Shrek2 will be featuring the same in an orange cat!

Aww! You can still like 'em... I like cartoons, and they don't make any sense in the real world either. :)

I guess it's time for me to come out of the Bon Jovi closet, as well. I just can't help it....they are my guilty pleasure.

Magic Carpets???--

I used to firmly believe that a Mulberry tree in my front yard was a parade float. I liked climbing it and practicing my Queen Elizabeth wave. Finally, I get to lead a parade...a gay/lesbian
parade, though I'm neither. However, I have that
wave so very down.
