This is actually really real....

Chuck Norris leads vote for Budapest bridge name.

Quote:

BUDAPEST (Reuters) - A new bridge in Hungary could be named after Hollywood action movie actor Chuck Norris unless the trend turns in an Internet vote organised by the Economy Ministry.

I believe Stephen Colbert has launched a campaign designed to overtake Chuck in the polls.

Oh, see, this makes me sad... without my cable television (or satellite, whatever) I miss out on fine television programming, such as The Colbert Report, Daily Show, *sniffles*, just about everything else. Then there's The History Channel, which I've always adored... Discovery... *rubs the forming tear from her eye*....

I'm thinking of purchasing some shows on iTunes - does anyone else around here do that?

I saw the Colbert report and suspected he was being truthful. So weird!

Quote:

people have put forward more than 500 nominations including Bud Spencer and Bob Marley, as well as names referring to construction delays such as "It Will Never Happen Bridge".

gotta love it.

"Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoloy card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game UNO."

Well, I built me a raft
And she's ready for floating
Old Mississippi, she's calling my name
Catfish are jumping
That paddle wheel pumping
Black water keep rolling on past just the same
Oh black water, keep on rolling
Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me?
Oh black water, keep on rolling
Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me?
Oh black water, keep on rolling
Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me?

Yeah, keep on shining your light
Gonna make everything, pretty mama
Gonna make everything all right

And I ain't got no worries
Cause I ain't in no hurry at all....

Well if it rains I don't care
Don't make no difference to me
Just take that streetcar that's going uptown

Yeah, I like to hear some funky Dixieland
And dance some Honky Tonk
And I'll be buying everybody drinks all 'round

Oh black water, keep on rolling
Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me?
Oh black water, keep on rolling
Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me?
Oh black water, keep on rolling
Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me?

Keep on shining your light
Gonna make everything, everything
Gonna make everything all right

And I ain't got no worries
'Cause I ain't in no hurry at all....

I like to hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama come and take me by the hand
By the hand
Take me by the hand, pretty mama
Come and dance with your daddy all night long

I like to hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama come and take me by the hand
By the hand
I want to honky tonk
Take me by the hand, pretty mama
Honky tonk, honky tonk
Come on and dance with your daddy all night long
With you all night long

How the heck did a Doobie Brothers song make its way into this thread?

I will venture to say that maybe it's here because of the references to Dixieland. Dixieland - if I'm not mistaken, and I just woke up, so I might be - is often tied to 'river boats.' Rivers have bridges. This is a story about a bridge.

Maybe.

LOL.

I was trying to figure out the song placement last night.

I think there's some doobie goin' on...
