Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Jill, I care, I was always a big musical fan and Oliver was one of my favorites. Although it is funny I still think of Jack Wild as a kid, from the movie, you know sort of like Pan. I loved HR Puffinstuff too. So your not alone. There are others that care.

I loved that musical when I was growing up...and still do.Loved Oliver as Bill Sykes, as well. Still amazed that he died after armwrestling (and beating!) five sailors...wow, I am really just rambling about things nobody else cares about, it must be time for a nap.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Thanks Beth, didn't mean to sound so pathetic about my love of musicals! You're right about thinking of him as a kid---it was strange to see the picture of him as a middle-aged man when I've thought of him as the Artful Dodger for so long. Now I'll be singing " Consider Yourself " to myself for the next few days... Jill > > > Jill, > > I care, I was always a big musical fan and Oliver was one of my favorites.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Jill, I've been singing it since I read your post. Help me get the music out of my head. (lol). I think this happens a lot with us aspies, once we get something stuck it sticks around for a while, and by the way you didn't sound pathetic, and I love them also, and operas.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 At least it's a good earworm, not a dreadful one. Guess we're just going to have to get the DVD and sing along, won't we? :-) I love opera, too! The human voice is amazing, isn't it? Jill > > Jill, > > I've been singing it since I read your post.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Absolutely, it can make me cry if it sounds just right, so can only music, if it is done just so. There is a very talented musician in the room who will remain unnamed by my but this musician has made me cry with one of their original pieces, I got goosebumps and warm chills and happy tears, from listening and turning up the sound and feeling the reverberations of the music. Music has always had a very profound effect on me. When I start to get depressed, I sing Hakuna Matata, or Python's Always Look on the Bright Side of Life, and I can't help but smile. When I get suicidal, I put on Elton 's I think Im Gonna Kill My Self, and sing along and start laughing, can't stay depressed listening to that song. I find music has helped me through the toughest parts of my life. Bethjillipep <jillipep@...> wrote: At least it's a good earworm, not a dreadful one.

After an hour or two when they were getting very tired, all of a sudden they all started singing "always look on the bri-ight si-ide of life..." and bobbing their heads and hands in sync! :-D That image was just too hilarious and now I think of that one instead of the original when I hear that song.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 I'm the same way. I don't think I would've survived without music. Now you've given me an earworm: I've got Always Look on the Bright Side trying to take over from Consider Yourself (although 's departure had me trying to remember the lyrics to Be Back Soon) " So long, fare-thee-well, pip pip, cheerio We'll be back soon " :-) Jill > > Absolutely, it can make me cry if it sounds just right, so can only music, if it is done just so.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 You scared me, with your comment about s departure, I thought for a minute he left the group, I had to go back and make sure I didn't miss anything. Im glad you were only going grocery shopping not leaving us. Well you could Always look on the Bright Side of Considering Yourself (lol).

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Yikes, well, at least you didn't think he was going to go pick some pockets! Okay, now you've done it: we're going to have to make some kind of a bizzare mix of Life of and Oliver! :-) Jill > > You scared me, with your comment about s departure, I thought > for a minute he left the group, I had to go back and make sure I > didn't miss anything.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Oops, it was Beth who said that, not Jill. Sorry.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Stocks? I'm not sure what it's called. Our ancestors sure had a taste for bondage/discipline, didn't they? I can't help but think about the medieval torture that went on. Wow, have you seen some of those contraptions? Amazing. They put quite a lot of thought into those. You'd think they'd have had better things to worry about. BTW, that was Beth's quote, but you were right just the same, I would have thought that was hilarious, too.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Im laughing so hard I can hardly type right now, and my poor child wants to know what Im laughing at. There is no way possible I could explain it to him. Yes Inger I made the quote, I believe your right Jill that they are Stocks and not Bonds (lol). Now this is a fun topic.
