It was 1984 and I was playing with my band at this club in Minneapolis, and I was working hard on being the best and the best band at the club but there was this rival band that had this one really good song and everyone was really digging it, but I knew I could write much better songs than this, also I was a much better showman than the guys in that band, hell one guy sang while this other guy just danced around him holding a mirror .

So one night I was doing a gig with the band, and out of nowhere this beautiful girl comes into the club, and is watching me do my thang, so I wanted to impress her, so I started singing one of my new songs while looking straight into her eyes, and then I thought to myself "this would be a good time to start humping the stage" so,,, I did and it worked like a charm and after the show she got on the back of my bike and we went down to the lake where I got her to take off her clothes and jump in the lake, then I took her clothes, jumped on my bike, laughed at her then took off...

Later that nite, she came to my crib and gave me the most incredible guitar that I had ever seen... That nite I wrote a song that would put me and my band over the top and finally beat that band with the guy that flapped his arms while singing and the other guy holding a mirror. That nite I wrote a song about RAIN. And it made me richer than I could have imagined, I then dumped all of my bandmates, changed my name to a symbol and got even more filthy rich.
This is what happens when 5s don't drop.

Now see this back when music meant something.
The bad part is that I mentally associated the "slippin slippin" line with this cause of the music video and would have sworn it was sung by Jamiroquai, but that was actually Steve Miller Band

I work in a NICU. The things nurses say in the staff lounge would shock you, and not in a good way. Most NICU nurses at least have the awareness not to say stupid stuff in front of parents though.
True. A good friend of mine is a nurse. When she lived next to me she would come over all the time to decompress after a shift and she was always pretty honest and shared the jokes doctors would say behind closed doors (pretty freaking funny, demented humor).

She moved to another state a year and a half ago but was just back for a visit and shared more stuff. What a crazy job!

I think they have to share and say things to keep detached a little bit, but definitely NOT in front of a patient, or family of a patient!!!

It was a different time. If you weren't a certain age while it was happening, it might not mean the same thing to you.

Not trying to start anything political, just saying I'd trade all of streaming video (with social media right alongside it) for the relative economic stability of that time period.

For me personally, having so many choices makes nothing seem special.

Thanks for your comments, Coco and tricker and RainbowinthDark. I know, it was so rude! .

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you :)

The way I'm feeling right now, I don't want to talk to anyone they are so effed up. People always say mean things to me. It's like they are obsessed with dominating me! Ugh!!! :arghh:

This, totally. Unlimited choice just seems to mean that there's nearly unlimited crap you have to sort through to get to the halfway decent stuff (never even mind good)
