Well all Right
going back to
http://www.virtuallandmedia.com/img5/miscs/solar.gif
I hazarded five inspired guesses
"It might be "Message To The (Solar) Wind"
or "A Million Degrees And Getting Warmer"
Or "Mars Bound"??,
"The circle Is Huge"
No judging by the trajectory it's probably "Always On the Bright side""
SM said
"No, no and no." did he really mean"no,no,no, no and no"??? or perhaps he is digitally challenged!!
But I don't yet see why Madame Hoover's Spin Spin should get all the honours
and I can't let Laurel get away with guessing all of these!!
In My Not So Humble Opinion
I still think my "Always On the Bright side"
is the better answer
This was clearly the thoughts of a spaceman looking out of the porthole whilst sitting on the starboard
(no make that sunboard) side of his spaceship
Which reminds me of the old chestnut about the derivation of the word ""posh"
which can add snme "spice" to your vocabulary
(Mrs David Beckham). geddit??
According to dictionary.com (http://www.dictionary.com):-

"A popular theory holds that it is derived from the initials of Port Out
Starboard Home, the cooler, and thus more expensive, side of ships traveling
between England and India in the mid-19th century. The acronym POSH
was supposedly stamped on the tickets of first-class passengers traveling
on that side of ships owned by the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation
Company. No known evidence supports this theory, however"

lol, while we're giving poor SM the gears i'd like to add:

"Allison turning her face to the summer rain."

the gif file i am seeing on my pc is not showing any turning of her face, she's just looking at the rain http://www.corfid.com/ubb/tongue.gif

just ribbin', they don't let me play Trivial Pursuit or whatever because i take the fun out of it, lol (JF should be my partner http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif)

my guess for the alarm clock one is:
"don't beat me down"

[LSH]

Oh John, you're just sore becaused I teased you in chat last night. Be sure to save some of that angst for Brink and Bill (aka Dilex), my trusty cohorts.
interesting little post though...

[brink]

Moi!?! I haven't a clue what you are referring to Laurel (snicker, snicker) http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif.

This ship passed you by, then, LSH. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

A Passing Ship?

[stationmaster]

Sorry I'm having trouble with the computer again...

[superiorsings]

One of my favorite songs, Marie Christine
The lighthouse shining from the rock
For the ship Marie Christine and all her gallant lot!

[Gaby]

But that wasn't the original animation!!
It was a little red and white stripey ship, zipping from side to side of the frame.
Bleaahh! You're not playing fair.
I'm going to scweem and scweem until I make myself sick and then throw all my toys out of the pram!!!!!!!

[LSH]

lol Gaby. A Passing Ship was already done a page or so (maybe more) back.

[Gaby]

Ah! But this guy is tricky!! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

[Borderstone]

"High and Dry?" (The lighthouse is high and sson the boat will be in "dry" dock? )

really like this art pic, SM http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif
it looks like they're On Yonge St. to me?

"everywhere you walk people almost say hello"

i dunno Gord, everywhere i walk people seem to grunt and go out of their way to elbow me, then ya got those rollerbladers and skateboard dudes whippin' by on each side...and seems like i'm always going against to flow, it's like i'm right in a bad video game...Sidewalk Invaders or something like that, agh...how am i at promoting T.O. tourism? i may have just singlehandedly negated all the good the SARS concert did, lol

[LSH]

LOL jj. well, it's not the most promising promotion, but it won't stop me.
I think we already did Yonge Street somewhere in the other eight pages.
It kinda strikes me as Minstrel of the Dawn....

[This message has been edited by LSH (edited September 12, 2004).]

[Station Master]

hmm, you're right (well, not necessarily your guess http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif) but you're right that i am wrong, lsh...that one was used about 350 replies ago, i should have checked!, lol

pretty cool that you spelled our main street name correct though http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif it's ironic (i think that's the right way to describe this) that i give Americans a hard time about forgetting to add a U after the O in words like favourite, colour, etc...then they graciously catch on and start spelling those words right in any correspondence to us canucks or brits.... but THEN they spell it YoUnge Street and and i have to yell at them again,
"WHY IN THE HECK WOULD YOU PUT A U AFTER THE O????, SILLY!!!!" http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif

[LSH]

Well, Americans can pretty much take apart and truncate any word that comes our way, I'll admit that. However, I think the British our vowel crazy. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

[stationmaster]

Hey LSH are you keeping track of all the songs used so far? You seem to remember them well. I think I should start writing them down soon...

[brink]

You beat me again Laurel.
Great job SM. You have an addicting topic.

[Sidney Freedmen]

well that could also say Circle Of Steel too but it isnt so no dice on that for me for awhile anyway

SM, well, the man was obviously a minstrel and the lighting contrast in the pic made it look like daybreak or day's end, and Minstrel was the first song that popped into my head when I saw it...that's all.
I can't name all the songs off the top of my head, but I know when we've used one or not. My brain is used to working that way..part of my daily job..the one i get paid for

This one looks like Cherokee Bend

do other cities have cool news w/video sites like cp24? share them with me if so http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

[LSH]

I thought it might be Broken Dreams also jj. very fitting. But I'll go for Drifters.
That way, if we're all wrong, we've narrowed down the choices anyway.

Drifters

[stationmaster]

Sorry folks! Guess again. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

Hey, jj, this is not a nasty competition, unless it us against SM...hey, yeah, that's it...

[jj]

lol, yes, that's it, lsh! students against the teach http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif
