> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by zoogirl \* > **Bobkitty and Cougarfang–“Stray Cat Strut” by the Stray Cats** I was wondering when someone was gonna go there. Thanks, **zoo**! Hows about tableau 1:7 from the Nutcracker for you? Battle with the Army of the Mouse King? 😉 **Serendipity** … run, don’t walk, to your nearest music store and GET YOURSELF A COPY OF THAT SONG. It’s on the Empire CD. It’s **perfect** for the two of you. 🙂 ---

I’m still leaning more toward _Human Nature_, though. You are the embodiment of that song, my friend. Me, it used to be _Bad Girl_, but I no longer kiss kind strangers lips. 😃 ---

_Nothing Else Matters_ by Metallica and _Cowboy Take Me Away_ by the Dixie Chicks for **Gunslinger**. Every Nirvana song I know and some I don’t for **hardygrrl** , who comes to mind every time I hear Kurt Cobain. For **GingerOfTheNorth** , _Venus_ (I don’t know who it’s by, bananarama maybe), because I don’t know any Canadian songs about goddesses. ---

Someone has to dedicate some Rush for that clog wearin’ motorcycle crashing Mod… what should it be? Ginger will be pleased that someone thinks she’s a goddess, I’ll be sure to tell her that when I see her later this afternoon. ---
