agams, agams, agams.
^that’s what I still sing, when I’m listening to Tube.
i thought it was
“shouting his graphic translation, a foreign metaphor”
and
“robert palmer is a pawn”
OK, here’s what I interpret from “Tube.” I didn’t read many of the above posts beforehand, but some of them ended up a match. :o
Thanks to Neck’s post for the bulk of the lyrics. Listening to 12/7/97, 12/29/97, 11/7/91, 11/2/98 & 8/3/98…
An asteroid crashed and nothing burned
It made me wonder,
Do tigers sleep in lily patches?
(Doc,) Do rhinos run from thunder?
I got an ache in my left ear
I felt a twinge but I still could hear
It made me think I would not be burned,
But rather give myself to science
I felt that I could help
In science, I felt that I could help
Paranoid the doctor ran,
Shouting his graphic translation
A fortnight of horror,
Gang wars and hells of wretches
Spewing forth their color
He purposely waited till I was done
To knock on the lavatory door
Accusing me of ruining the fun,
He knocked on it some more
The fun, he knocked on it some more.
And knowing soon as we’re all inside,
An apple or a grape
Could put forth a cloud of Mercury
If run over by a car
On a freeway in Los Angeles
Once the spraying has been done
There’s a sport made from necessity
You’re a portrait of your past
There’s a mummy in the cabinet
Are there no more arrows left?
What’s that rubber bottle doing here?
How’s that napkin for a roof?
Ten cents to a dollar now
For a shelf of pregnant hens…
Robert Palmer is a plorb
A gams, a gams, a gams
Are so stupendous, living in this tube
It’s so stupendous living in this tube.
I was thinking about this when people were talking about who joined when in the Type Your Thoughts thread a few days ago. I only looked through 8 of the 33 pages of members (sorted by top posters.) I left out people that haven’t logged in for a long time, unless I remembered them specifically. Sorry if you’ve been a member forever and I missed you.
EDIT: I moved Neck and Fluffy and Vern to the end of summer 05.

#8, not too shabby.
^^ That must have taken some work. I beat you by a day Eli.
Who was that other Canadian dude that was on here back in the day? He had like a Jamaican flag or something similar as his avatar? Was it Lifeandhowtoliveit or Livesandlevels? Does anyone remember who I’m talking about?
September '05 was a pretty good month for us.
a bunch of long-time members signed on that month
I’d say June '05 was better.
Would have been a good year, only if Hank Scorpio didn’t join. 
:-*
I just can’t believe that Phish is playing this weekend. THIS WEEKEND! Days from now.
When I joined this board in Keller, Texas what seems like a hundred years ago, I was just looking for some other people to discuss Phish with. We always hoped that Phish would come back someday and we could talk about new shows. (We never seemed to have trouble for too long discussing anything and everything else.)
Everyone going to Hampton be safe and have fun. Everyone else download and listen. I’ll meet you back here afterwards.
That rapper Snow? Lickey Boom Boom Down…
Most users online was 192, Jun 27, 2007, 8:00pm
With over 1,000 members now how has this not been beaten?
I think it’s at one particular time. So apparently, with everyone hopping on board, at no time has more than 192 members been online at once.
But I agree…particularly after the Hampton shows and summer tour announcements…that’s usually when they come out of the woodwork.
i regret joining this board.
i never realized that spooks has seniority over me.
i’ve seen much.
liar!
Why was my post of the user list edited/deleted?
On the old board scrolling over someone’s name showed you the name they used when they joined. Now it shows a number. Is that the order in which they joined?
I don’t see what you mean
