Mornin' all!

Computer seems to be working adequately. For now anyway. Thanx Magnum Mike for some helpful advice! This morning it was my Internet access that was out! Obviously it's back on now.

Shall we hit the Qs?

Today's Question(s):
Can you string together three or four song titles, with limited connectors (in parentheses), to make a complete sentence?
If you do, please give the name of the singers/groups in order of the titles. I'll give an example:
Hey There Delilah/ Come Dancing (with me)/ One Night in Bangkok!
By Plain White T's/ The Kinks/ Murray Head



Bonus Question(s):
When people get fed up with things, they might say, "I'm going to run away and join the circus!" Ah, but not you. No, you're different! What are you going to run away and join, and why join that particular group, event, etc?



Just for Fun:
Have you ever played the Internet time-suck called "Cheese or Font?"
Cheese or Font



Today in History:
Arts/Entertainment: 1977 Fleetwood Mac's "Rumors" is #1 for 19th straight week

World: 2010 A drill reaches 33 Chilean miners who remain trapped underground after the 2010 Copiapo mining accident August 5, 2010

Today’s Word:

Pronunciation: (VER-uh-lee)
Meaning: adverb: In truth, indeed, truly, certainly.
Etymology: From Middle English verraily, from verrai/verray (very), from Old French verai (true), from vulgar Latin veracus, from Latin verax (truthful).

It is way to early for my brain cells get active enough for my brain to be able to come up with an answer.

Running away requires to much work. Can I just sit in the park and feed the squrrils for a while instead?

Cheese or Font
I have no clue what "Cheese or Font" is. However I will go out on a limb and say I have never played it.

No joining involved, just an island that very few know about, but still has all the amenities to live well, too!

Hey There Delilah/ Come Dancing (with me)/ One Night in Bangkok!
By Plain White T's/ The Kinks/ Murray Head

Don't know about this one:
(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction / Mrs. Robinson / Stand by Me
by The Rolling Stones / Simon & Garfunkel / Ben E. King

Now we're talking:
Sittin' On The Dock of the Bay / (eating a) Cheeseburger in Paradise / (with) Beer on the Table
by Otis Redding / Jimmy Buffett / Josh Thompson

Illustration (of the 2nd sentence!) below.


Bonus Question(s):
When people get fed up with things, they might say, "I'm going to run away and join the circus!" Ah, but not you. No, you're different! What are you going to run away and join, and why join that particular group, event, etc?

The cheeseburger makers! We're gonna drive a food truck around the USA and serve up fresh grade A burgers with cheese of your choice and shredded lettuce, tomato, onion, old-fashioned dill pickles, thick cut fries and refreshing cold beverages. On the dock of a bay sometimes.


Just for Fun:
Have you ever played the Internet time-suck called "Cheese or Font?" Cheese or Font
Never heard of it. (Okay I went and played it a bit. Gonna have to get some of those cheeses for the burgers! )
