"We tend to despise those who have done us well."

"Man tends to symbolize everything, and then reacts to the symbols as though they were the real thing."


4) What was Samuel Johnson's opinion of the act of sexual congress?

5) Who won the 1962 boogie-woogie contest in Hong Kong?

A last question, of opinion, not fact: who do you like more, Marilyn Monroe or Bettie Page?

1) God Gets the Glory was at the top of the Gospel Charts 2 weeks after its relase . . .
2) Herb Alpert on Lead Trumpet, Tonni Kalash on 2nd Trumpet, Trombonist Bob Edmondson, Pianist Lou Pagani, Guitarist John Pisano, Bassist Pat Senatore, Drummer Nick Ceroli. Cool site: http://members.aol.com/lanesong/TijuanaBrassBioOne.html
3a) "You go to a woman? Forget not thy whip!" Someone who knew cloudy
"We tend to despise those who have done us well." Someone whom Cloudy had ‘helped’
"Man tends to symbolize everything, and then reacts to the symbols as though they were the real thing." Someone who thinks Cloudy really is a Storm Goddess . . .

4) He reminds us that sexual congress with nameless streetwalkers is not necessarily the stuff of romance and is not necessarily without its consequences. The singers (there are several) have the same thing on their minds as did the lonely man with the nasal voice, but here there is no hint of wine and roses . . . no man but a blockhead ever wrote, (about it) except for money. There were, however, many different Johnson’s to choose from and I’m not sure if the chief justice in the 1960s is the one you were refering to . . .

5) Who won the 1962 boogie-woogie contest in Hong Kong? Someone I have never met . . .

Who is Bettie Page? Born in 1976 here . . .
