If they discover a new species of beetle they could name it the Beatles Beetle. Laughing

Soo... Without looking...


"Slimus Cheapus Traitorus Malefactorus Horriblus Arachnus.."

I was thinkingmaybe a slug would be more appropriate for that howling, cheapass, lowlife...

I liked a few of his songs, but the guy's a creep's creep..

Anybody that's sat through his movie and doesn't have the same opinion..

(Just figured I'd stir it a little bit for something to check in on when I get out of the "shop" next week.)

Wish me luck.

His biography "Shakey" is a really good read. Neil can be an asshole, and I don't always agree with his view of the world, but he is a true artist worthy of respect. Sort of like you, Eric! Wink

Well Bama, I had to go and do a little research on the aforementioned spider and I learned that the spider originated in Canada. But because the little spider was really a nobody there, the spider began to migrate south into the USA. Once it had established itself in America, it began to complain about the government, the Viet Nam, war and even attacked men from the southern regions of this country, as though the spider had some kind of superior knowledge of how a Canadian spider should dictate American government and beliefs. It almost became extinct as the years past, but was seen a few times at gatherings such as Farm Aid and the like.
The spider is easy to recgonize as it has a screwed up face that looks like it has not seen a bath in months, long greasy unkept hair, and when it makes a mating call or something like that, the sound very closely resembles an annoying mosquito buzzing in your ear and sometimes graduates into a sound not unlike a high pitched pinched off fart.
Keep the Raid handy, but I am sure within a few more years, the species will become totally extinct.
Yours truly,
A Southern Man

That's true. Neil Young got into model trains as a way to reach out and communicate with his autistic son. He liked it so much that he bought the company! Well, not the whole company, but he's a significant minority shareholder in Lionel, and he is largely responsible for the realistic sounds that Lionel trains generate.

The Clyde Coil videos are widely believed to have been shot on Neil's layout.
