I too felt the same in NO when I was there many years ago - it's a wonderful city. The effect was enhanced by the fact that I am a man with not much hair who works in the mobile industry and still does a little music on the side - haha! I can't say the same for the flatlands of Bedfordshire of course...

Had no idea at all what that was supposed to mean. I'm another of the many who thought the line was "And all the russians look the same" in "Screen Kiss". As well I thought the line "And you hoped he'd say he's sorry when he hits you" was "And you're taught to say 'I'm sorry' when he hits you". And, of course, who can forget the ever famous "knickers steaming in the chilly air of the morning".

The "knickers steaming" one takes the cake, though. - -Bill baYou Rains Sally wrote: >>"Therapy/Growth" >> >> > >Or as I heard it, "there are people".
