Standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona

You are so easily persuaded. :D

I think I should bring a whole bag full of Tim Tams out next weekend. We could sit outside by the swanky pool at the Renaissance eating them while all of the health club people watch us from above. :evil:

We might get kicked out, but it would be fun.

Once again with feeling - bite me! :D

Great pic, Matt!

I remember driving past Winslow years ago, and those damned lyrics were stuck in my head from there to Kansas. (They were replaced by 'Dust In the Wind', which was even more horrific).

This is because we covet what we see, but cannot have (like Tim-Tams until recently...get 'em while you can, and never mind the dress code KatieSue !!!). ;)

I presume that the statue is supposed to be of Jackson Browne?

I was going to say, I have no idea who that statue is.

But if it is Jackson Browne then I must say I still have no idea who that statue is.

Jackson Browne is the songwriter of the song "Take It Easy" from the where the line "Well I'm a standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona" comes from. The song was performed by the Eagles.

You get to show your prowess on Excel: I get to show off my knowledge of useless pop music trivia.

Random comment - This doesn't in the least seem worth its own thread, so let me just say, re: Michael Phelps scandal -

OMG! A college student smoked POT!!!!! And later went on to become a famous athlete!!!!! That's so wrong!!! :rolleyes:

Sorry, just had to get that out there. What a freaking nontroversy! I would love it if Phelps had acknowledged the picture and then said, "Pfft. Yeah? So?"
