Hey! “Cat Scratch Fever” is a _killer_ song!

OK, if you don’t like that one, how about “Cannonball” by the Breeders? Not cat-themed (which was kind of what I was going for with the first one), but it seems appropriate somehow…😉

[sub]Oliver? What’d I do to deserve that? :p[/sub]

Aww, I’m just teasing ya, luv. Cat Scratch Fever is fine… though Cannonball is an… uhhhhh… interesting choice.

And what’s wrong with Oliver, huh? I’ll Do Anything is a perfect song for you… 😉

By the way, **bobkitty** , I had never heard that song before, but I just read the lyrics and I like it whole bunches. Thanks for the dedication. 🙂

Thanks, Sapphy, but no Wally pleasant. Thanks to rasa, too!

I dedicate “Apple Juice Kisses” by Deee-lite to Rasa, because she introduced me to the song and because I want to make her roll her hips.

I dedicate “Fuck her Gently” by Tenacious D to saph because she wants to fuck me like an animal, so she could use a gentle humping every now and then, too. Plus, I don’t know any songs about anal sex.

I dedicate “Enormous Penis” to myself because it’s gopod to have dreams.

I dedicate “Kiss” by prince to boli because she loves Prince and she’s sitting right here.

I dedicate “Hotel California” to silo, because it’s almost as annoying as he is.

And I dedicate “Oh Nymmy!” to Nymysys because, well, it IS her song.

**Afternoon Delight** to **Callie** because every day after I come home from work we have crazy lesbian cybersex. OK, I’m lying…I dedicate that song to her because every time I hear it I think of her rollerskating in her basement. 😃

**I’ll Be Watching You** and **Obsession** to **Joey Hemlock** , because I love him and I’m stalking him. One day he will love me back. **ONE DAY**. 😉

**Lump** , by **The Presidents Of The United States Of America** to **Odieman**. He knows why. 😃

**The Space Between** to **Mr. Cynical** because I like the lyrics.\* The space between the tears we cry is the laughter that keeps us coming back for more. \*

And if anyone dedicates **Whole Lotta Rosie** or **Fat Bottomed Girls** to me, I will slap them silly. 😃

Rose

Rock You Like A Hurricane is by the Scorpions, IIRC.

I Am A Rock? The only song I know of by that title is by Simon & Garfunkel. Are you thinking of the one with the refrain “I am a rock, I am an island.” Or are you thinking of the song on the Chevy truck ads “Like A Rock” by Bob Seger?
