Big shout out to luvinthe88and20 the postcard you sent me from Jared's home town arrived today, and I love it. What a nice bit of history as well. *hugs*

I thought I would post the answers to the Meme from yesterday. I think some of you might've been a bit young for these songs, but I'm really pleased at how many where identified. Seems I'm not totally alone in my taste of music.

7. I've never seen you look like this without a reason,

8. Shall I tell you about my life

10. If I hear you knockin
Darlin' On my door
Ain't no way that I'm gonna answer, Babe

And lyin' is another
That's when I say
It's over
That's It I'm gonna quit
Yeah!Bad Company Good lovin' Gone Bad


11. Here we come in a cloud stars in our eyes

14. Love is a danger
Of a different kind

15. When I say I love you,
You just act like I don't know,

And high school girls with clear skinned smiles

18. And I know my life would look allright
If I could see it on the silver screen identified by exuberantself Eagles James Dean


Anyway, let me know if any of the words in the songs made you want to listen to one you haven't heard before and I'll see if I can track it down on youtube. I'm amazed at what can be found there. I make no promises for some of them. They are a touch obscure.
