Gooey Teen-Age death songs and other fun things

8-11-10

One of the best websites I have found recently is Grooveshark.com. I have discovered it works best if running off Firefox or Internet Explorer.

It has thousands of songs to download for free. You can make a Playlist or two, thereby creating your own jukebox. Create a fifties and sixties Playlist and have a sock hop at home. Nothing says lovin like a little Ricky Nelson, Beach Boys, the Monkees, Herman's Hermits and Isely Brothers.

Do not forget to make a teen-age death song Playlist. Include Last Kiss by J. Frank Wilson & the Cavaliers, Leader of the Pack, by the Shangri-Las, Dead Man's Curve by Jan & Dean, Honey by Bobby Goldsboro, always a show stopper and Teen Angel by Mark Dinning

Once the sock hop is in full swing and the slow songs are coming quicker and quicker, play another parlor game, with betting. Have your guests guess how many people in the United States have the same name as theirs. Decide on parameters and place bets for who guesses right. You can find the answers at http://www.howmanyofme.com/. You can find this web address and other fun sites at my website, http://www.brucebrennanlaw.com/.

How about them DeKalb County Liners. They had a fine season for their first year in existence. GOOD LUCK IN THE FUTURE.
