Play the midi file by

Bob Dylan - The Mighty Quinn

Some of you know doodly squat about music, particularly the *person* who called what I said nonsense. Things do tie together in marvelous ways....

I simply cannot resist posting this one.

* THE THONG OF THOR -John Boardman(Tune: "Girl I Left Behind Me") In days of yore, the great god Thor would ramp around creation. He'd drink a pint and slay a giant and save the Nordic nation, Or kill a Worm to watch it squirm and vainly try to fang him, Or lock up Loki in the pokey and on the noggin bang him. Once he did bawl through Thrudvang Hall that on a trip he'd wander In a disguise from prying eyes, in Midgard way out yonder, So all his slaves, huscarls and knaves, packed up his goods and gear, O, And off he strode, on Bifrost road, a perfect Aryan hero. In Midgard land he joined a band of hardy Viking ruff-i-ans, And off they sailed and rowed and bailed among the auks and puff-i-ans. Whene'er they'd reach a foreign beach they stopped to raid and plunder; Each Nordic brute got so much loot their longship near went under. But as they rolled in coins of gold, they had one joy forsaken, For on each raid Thor's party made, no women could be taken. Each drab and queen fled from the scene when Viking sails were sighted, And Thor felt the need for certain deeds that had gone unrequited. Thor's brows were black as they went back to Oslo's rocky haven; Unto his crew he said, "Beshrew me for a Frankish craven "If I don't wrench some tavern wench, or else may Frigga damn her." Replied one voice, "You got first choice; you've got the biggest hammer." Into an inn that crew of sin disembarked upon their landing, Each tavern maid was sore afraid of pirates of such standing. But golden coins warmed up their loins and the ale soon ran free; Thor's motley crew poured down the brew and made an all-night spree. Thor's glances strayed unto a maid with hair as gold as grain, A lisp so shy, a downcast eye, and not a trace of brain; He swept her charms into his arms and to an upstairs bower, And did not cease nor give her ease for six days and an hour! When he rose up and drained a cup, she looked like one that's near death: Her limbs were weak, she could not speak, and only gasped for her breath. "You ought to know, before I go, I'm Thor!" he bade adieu. "You're Thor!" said she. "Conthider me! I'm thorer, thir, than you!"

You would be surprised how many things I have found and failed to bookmark. I only pick the ones which are either funny or useful. Do as you please, as I said before. Avoid harming others and everything will be just fine and dandy.

And be very very careful how you use 'no'.

So, how does this thread relate to me, again?
You did put my name in the title.

Rather than start another thread, I used this one to say a few things which I thought everyone should know. There are quite a few more posted elsewhere if you know how to look. I suppose that the point which I am trying to get across to you is that cultural diversity providing context to your decision making processes and a long range viewpoint are necesaary to avoid short term stupid blunders....

I thought that whoever is currently doing the space vikings and also the pirates races would appreciate having a theme song for Thor to help the Users appreciate his relationship to women......

Actually there are quite a few jokes which I am bursting to tell, but I fear that things would deteriorate rather quickly if I did so, so I will simply have to defer them until later.

Uh, at the risk of sounding like a mentally-enervated 15-year-old. . . why in the heck are you randomly spamming this stuff? The Thor song was mildly funny, but your main objective seems to have been a bit of soapbox-polishing. . . go get a dog, or something.

author's note: I don't normally flame, especially whilst randomly trolling through messageBoards, but this struck me as a particularily silly form of OTT, and my adding a mild reprimand seems to be appropriate to the somewhat bizarre nature of the Posts below
