O.K. We’re going to the numbering scheme that I always end up with. . . unless I _start_ with it. In that case, the thread dies loooong before it becomes worth it. Number your own from 1 with your initials in front. I’ll get the unguessed ones with the new numbers: SP1. This is better than my imagination. This is more than a dream come true. BV1. Standing tall! On the wings of my dreams! PM1: With songs and sketches and jokes old and new with us about you won’t feel blue. HS1. There is one thing you should learn When there is no one else to turn to… tdn1: What’s a potpourri? Why don’t you wait and see? RF1: “He won’t quit because you know there’s no such word as fail to . . .” RF2: .“But I don’t care 'cause all I want to do, Is cash my check and drive right home to you.” DM1. We’ll race to your place, on the case, every time. JJ1: The only way to win is cheat and lay it down before I’m beat WB1: everywhere you look there’s a heart, a hand to hold onto WB2: when I wake up in the morning the alarm let out a warning and I think I’m gonna make it on time oL:1 We sing pretty much alike" “Enjoy Spring pretty much alike” Sorry if I missed any or picked guessed ones. ---
