Jerry,
Although you are ten years older than I am I defer disclosing the tune popular when I was born. Oddly, i remember everyone else's song from my teens, i guess you remember them from your twenties. Did you ever think you would be as old as you are? Just 2 years from Octogenarian status???

They don't write songs anymore like they used to.

Jerry · « **Reply #26 on:** June 21, 2007, 09:46:22 PM »

Yes Esther I agree. Gershwin, Berlin and Porter would roll over in their graves if the heard "Yo mama was a ho."
