Sorry,

I did see this and thought of replying but then thought I couldnt really be bothered to be honest.

There are loads of websites that are dedicated to this. So instead of me typing for ages on what i think or what I have been taught, here are some websites.

:LOL: :LOL:

HOW SILLY DO i FEEL?

of course it is Roger, lol.
I knew this before and no idea why I forgot. I was looking for an edit just like in a song that is not in my songbook. But yes, I have tried editting one of the songs in my songbook and it works fine.

Ken

being wrong to prove you are human is good sometimes.lol

There must be a problem wit hpersonal songbooks then.
I can only edit songs that are in the main site. I cannot edit any of my songs in my songbooks.
I cannot even see an otion in my songbook to edit/change the song.

I was going to post a link to this a few weeks ago but at the time my computer crashed and I went in a mood and forgot.

Fantastic foot playing, It is always good to see things like this to show us all that we take things for granted and also if you are determined to do something the unthinkable can be achieved

Well I am not too sure what side of the atlantic my info is based on but

Pink Floyd's Dark side of the moon and MEatloaf's BAt out of hell albums were both very high selling albums and I would say both would outsell some of those listed you have.

As for Brian Johnston being accepted in sc dc. I was recently in a foru where people still say he has not managed to replace Bon SCott. But after 28 years or so I would say he has done a pretty good job. And I do not think people should be comparing him to Bon Scott. Two different singers in a the same band that brought two different fronts to the band, yet Brian Johnston can still get through very nicely songs such as " whole lotta rosy"  highway to hell, " TnT" and all other songs that bon Scott sang.
I bet if it was the other way round where Brian Johnston was the first singer and Bon Scott took over people would now be saying Bon can never replace Brain.

what a question..... 1st tv program?
I have no idea

I think it might be a scottish program on a sunday afternoon called " Glen Michael's cavalcade". he used to sit at a table and talk to an old oil lamp, and it replied to him. It showed cartoons mostly.

Or could have been playschool?

Yes Al these is topics that have got nothing to do wih music and they are let g oto run ( as long as they do not get ergumentitive, but I tihnk everyone would agree as the admin at choride have  that religion, politics do end up argumentitive. (I would include footy in that too but that is mostly for West of Scotland that cannot agree on things like that, or start arguing about proddy/catholic sort of thing)

As I am sure most know by now that read in here, I visit bothies a lot and the three unwritten rules of visiting a bothy is no talk f footy, religion or politics because these three subjects dont only start arguments, they start wars ok a little OTT for in here but ye get my drift?
Prevention is better than cure...... If we do not have heated debates/arguments/replies on any of these then there is no need for anyone to make excuses for what they said.. meaning everyone can stay as freindly as possible onthe forum.

As it has been said before several times we administrators are volunteers and I am only human, I know I make mistakes too but as well as make them now and again I like to prevent them too. And as an Administrator on this site I like to think I do a good job when I feel the need to reply to people or take appropriate action when needed as I see in my eyes.

I decided not to delete the thread as the initial intention was not so bad, but where would it hve ended? people can still read what was typed but let that be it. I we feel so strong we have to direct a question to another member then there is always the option of emailing the memberand discuss it away from everyone else. I even have a lot more to say on this and I  am thinking of emailing one member to explain why i said something. I could have said it in there but that would have kept it going and again.....where would it stop? and that would have been from just my question, never mind the other convos that were arising through the thread.

I hope this explains more to why I decided to close a political thread, even though I replied on it too. The initial thread I think was fine. I saw it as a " congrats to the winner" but it went further than that.

I do not expect everyone to agree with me as we all have our own views on how things should be or what they would like them to be.

Ken

and on that last reply to all this politcal stuff.

I shall now close the thread.
It has ran its course.

Ken

well Americans thank you for proving me wrong.
I alsways thought Americans were too racist to vote for a non white guy. So thanks for proving me wrong.

SAying that, after watching the news this morning I think lots of black/coloured whatever you decide to call people that are not white voted for Obama because of his colour. A few darl coloured folk on the news were saying We have got in, as in the colour of skin got in. This is very wrong if that is what most people done it for.

The same happened in the UK in 1979 with Thatcher. Loads upon loads voted for her just for the fact she was a woman and we had never had a woman Prime minister before. And just look what she done to the UK, more so what she had done to SCotland and its industry.

But I kinda like Obama, maybe because of his youthful face? maybe because his colour? maybe because he seems like a nice family man? But it is not because I believe in what political things he says because I have heard nothing

but for all those that supported him and voted for him, well done, ye got yer man.

Ken

good luck trying to hint on though
