    Ima is responsible for the current “Confusion” thread, her genius tag for this political season. I am posting a really lame Al Gore parody, just to show that Paul Simon’s song was easily ruined!

    lol! Alright you two, take off your whiskey goggles! I called WMCCnews a “Land of Confusion”, referring to Genesis’ 1986 hit. Citro, then, branched off to “Ball of Confusion” by The Temptations, which, by the way, is exactly what this thread has become! :-)

    Citro, are you psychic?

    Genesis!!! With Peter Gabriel??? Now I am thinking about Biko, and that brings me to thoughts of Gil Scott Heron. My high school buddy loved GSH’s work when she was a child, and her dad is a podiatrist. Gosh, my feet hurt.

    No, Land of Confusion was Genesis after Peter Gabriel. That was Phil Collins vintage. …………………..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBdUz_IJ4VA

    Yes, Ima, I have been called psychic as well as Black Magic Woman.
    And of course….I knew you were going to say that.
    Hey Glad, did you notice that the Phil Collins puppet was wearing beer goggles?!
    Who is/was this Gil Scott Heron dude? I googled him and loved his voice, looks, poetry, and especially his flute playing. Thanks, Your Gladness, for the ongoing musical edification!

    Gil Scott Heron was a more underground, sort of pseudo counter revolutionary guy from the 80s I think (?) All the GaTech and Ga State and Emory kids from that time loved him. I think he was considered more a poet, but my sophisticated ATL friends in the 80s had access to his music. And he was on Sat Nite Live once.

    Citro:
    Who told? I am only revving through the Starbucks line 10x a day…..vrrrrrrooooooom. When you go inside it takes too long as we always see everyone we have ever known ad infinitum. Orange Mocha Frappuccino………..Zoolander.

    I psychically told Ima that you were totally buzzed on caffeine. Right, Ima?

    Citro and Ima are doing shapeshifting–I am telling Anchor—-not nice. I cannot tell if Citro is telling on me for something or if it is Ima. It is not fair to use science fiction techniques on the luddite blog!!! I am confused. Let me go make a pot of coffee…

  • 12 Ima Thinkin // Jul 28, 2008 at 6:52 pm

    Yup, I got that one, citro, but I still can’t play music by ear.

    Looks like Charley Pride to me.

  • 14 Citro // Jul 28, 2008 at 7:24 pm

    Yes, it’s true. Ima we’ve been outed. Might as well show them our research:

    However, Ima, if you are shapeshifting with Citro, all she does you can, and vice versa…
