"Well the women the women tear their blouses off. And the men they dance on the polka dots. And it’s partner found and partner lost But it’s hell to pay when the fiddler stops. It’s Closing Time… I swear it happened just like this a sigh,cry, a hungry kiss The Gates of Love they budged an inch I can’t say much has happend since… …but Closing Time…" Of course feel free to prove me and Leonard Cohen wrong. I don’t see wh this shouldn’t be the longest thread in the history of SDMB. ---

Well if we are going to make this the longest thread in the history of the SDMB… we need to get to work! Wasn’t that “a” thread like 100 pages before they closed it? ---

Well I just went out a bought a bottle of Baileys today and am gonna drink it tonight (ok perhaps not the whole bottle) - **Dave** you might get another pissed email lol… So … on topic … my answer is swallow - the Baileys I mean guys… sheesh, people will think this is a flirt thread or something :D:p ---

Something like 13,300+ reads, but only 800+ posts? Maybe it’s the decor. Do you think if I redecorated, people would start coming in for a drink? Or, a spit? > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Honeydew \* > \*\*Well I just went out a bought a bottle of Baileys today and am gonna drink it tonight (ok perhaps not the whole bottle) - Dave you might get another pissed email lol… \*\* No problem.

Hmmm…now, that I think of it, so do I! :eek: But, I prefer to think of it as coming from Bailey on _WRKP in Cincinnatti_. ---

Its 1 September… I tend not to spend too much on myself and something like that, I need a reason to buy. The two bottles would have cost something like $30 or so which seemed a little expensive to me. So it’ll be my bday treat instead… So start saving now **Mr Bear** 😛 **Musicat** I never heard of Baileys Quarters either… what are they??? ---

The character on WKRP was Bailey Quarters. Not Irish, I don’t think, but I was making a mixed pun/joke on **Davebear’s** lusting after Miss Quarters, AKA Bailey. I, too, found her [hind?]-quarters delectable. Got it? A joke’s not nearly as funny when you dissect it! 🙂 ---

I have a one-track mind, but the train isn’t always on the track people expect it to be on. I couldn’t have told you Bailey’s last name for all the tea in China. Of course, I don’t drink tea, so that’s not much motivation. 😉 And, Amen! on that backside! Are you another guy who preferred Bailey to Jennifer? (It _was_ Jennifer, wasn’t it? I haven’t actually seen the show in years.) > [@](#): > > \*\*Got it?

Did someone say my name? Oh damn, I hate having such a common name. Say “Jennifer” in a crowded room and at least one girl will say “Yes?”. 😃 **Musicat** , did y’all get storms there last night? ---

Could be worse, **Branwen**. Call out “Dave?” in a crowded room and you’ll get three responses. 🙂 ---
