"I was wondering a few things:

How did y'all choose your particular screen names?

Where's the thread that'll take in all us UT inhabitants when we're kicked out of our home here?"

My ex-squeeze gave me my screen name. He had seen a B&W movies with Cary Grant and Myrna Loy...Cary says, "Whaddya say, Monkey Face?!" (Or something on that order...) And it has been with me ever since -- even have a CB handle by that name...

Never cared for the Bee Gees. I guess it was over played on the radio, but it annoys me still.

Here is one of my favorites of all time.

Try to remember the kind of September
when life was slow and oh, so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
when gras was green and grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
you were a tender and callow fellow.

Try to remember and if you rememer, then follow,
(echo) follow, follow, follow, follow
follow, follow, follow, follow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
that no one wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
that dreams were kept beside your pillow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
that love was an ember about to billow.
[chorus]
Deep in December it's nice to remember it's nice
to remember altho' you know the snow will follow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember it's nice
to remember without a hurt the heart is hollow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember it's nice
to remember the fire of September that made use mellow.
[chorus]

Good night all. It's been a reeeaaally long day, and yours truly needs lots of extra sleep.

Will the UT end before this day is out? We'll see....
