    In the style of Desperado...


    Avocado

    Avocado, what is this taste I am missing?
    I need a little convincing to try you someday
    Oh, you're a weird one
    With skin so green and so bumpy
    It's hard and it's lumpy, so I still will delay.

    Do you taste like you look, if so
    I'll pass you for a mango
    You know you can't go wrong with a taste so nice and sweet
    But I saw you at the grocery and you seemed to call out to me
    So I bought you so as not to admit defeat

    Avocado, are you a fruit or a veggee
    I'm feeling so edgy but try as I may
    I'm going to do it
    I'm going to slice you and mash you
    I'm going to make some guacamole
    (Make some guacamole!)
    I'm going to make some guacamole
    For Superbowl Day
    ~ Cathy ~

    And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    PM, I've been doing just that since LROOE started. Saw them in Atlanta, DC, Philly, Dallas, Boston, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Worcester. Planned a LOT of family visits to coincide with the shows in Massachusetts and Ohio. Atlanta/DC/Philly/Dallas were courtesy of a friend who lives in LA, who kicked it all off with an invite to Stagecoach '08! As you may surmise, I'm willing to 'hit the road' to see the Eagles at every opportunity.
    I just need a little downtime.........

    Every single one of these has either made me laugh or feel sentimental. I'm dying over avacado because I love them! Too funny!

    Everyone here is so creative it's craking me up. Soda, don't be surprised if Don contacts you to have this thread removed immediately!

    Yeah, otherwise folks might get the impression that Don Henley endorses the eating of guacamole, cheesecake, and various heartburn-inducing foods! What if someone ate massive amounts of these unhealthy foods because he/she thought Don Henley liked them, and got terribly fat? Their morbid obesity would be upon our heads, my friends!

    To the tune of Heartache Tonight

    No Eagles gonna be on stage

    It's an unpleasant sight

    Everyone's gonna be so sad

    There's nothing we can do

    It's gonna be a Miserable Night, Miserable Night I know

    It's gonna be a Miserable Night, Miserable Night I know, Lord I know

    We can beg, and plead, till we lose our voices, We can break out in a riot, but either way it's gonna be a Miserable Night, Miserable Night without them on Stage, WHOOO HOO!

    Okay ladies!!!! To good to just read once and toss in the corner.

    NEW CONTEST!

    Set a date for final submissions for the "contest".

    Vote on the BEST one both technically as in Poetry and How well hit fits into the song the way it was originally sang.

    Then pick the one with the most significant CONTENT.

    The winner would be the one with the most in total score. (award "x" number of points for the one getting the most votes, "y" points for the next most number. Do that for both contests and add the two together to get the one that is the clear winner.

    Then comes the fun part! RECORD IT!!!!!!!!!!
