I'm sure there's a joke here about how WFMU military contractors as interrogators could totally get suspects to confess by blasting them with Amanda tracks all day long or something... | |

I also got 7/10. I assumed wrongly that kissing rumps had to be from a rap lyric. | |

Caryn:
These developments kind of explain why poetry doesn't exactly enjoy hallowed status in the US. But also are a clear sign that I should get into poetry more seriously. "Yeah, the poem's crap, but the idea was nice." | |

Maybe it'd help if you called it poesy instead of poetry. | |

If the whole course would be just listening to Blue Öyster Cult play that song, I'd sign up. And occasionally yell "More cowbell!" | |

Dammit, I forgot the umlaut. | |

I'd like to die of laughter. Maybe I should watch my Goodies DVDs, because that's what caused the famous documented case of such a death. Then again, maybe I should get my affairs in order first, just in case. | |
