  6. Just as mine this week was Ringo-centric, yours is Nesmith-centric, isn't it? I bet he makes more today much off of "Different Drum" than he does from Liquid Paper. (With computers, does anyone use that anymore?)

    And yes, I humbly acknowledge that you beat me on this one. (Bowing.)

  9. Natsthename: I had never seen that Stone Poneys photo until I found it on Google Images. I find some really cool pics that way.

    Melli: In answer to your question as to why I chose The Monkees for the word "theme", it's because the name of their theme song is "(Theme from) The Monkees".

    Polly: Thank you. I noticed that we shared a couple of answers.

    Pjazzy: "Too Many Fish In the Sea" is one of my favorite Marvelettes's tunes. It's a shame they are not in the RRHOF.

    Simply Shannon: Lucky for you that I didn't pick Barney the Dinosaur for any of my answers, lol. If that theme song ever gets stuck in one's head, I hope they have a sharp/blunt instrument nearby.

    The Gal Herself: That's an interesting question you posed about the use of Liquid Paper today. I don't know about others, but I still use it. I write out my radio show playlists in ink and I use Liquid Paper when I make a mistake.

    Oh and by the way, I plan on getting to your T13 for this week before you get to mine. :-)

    Bitter Betty: The Monkees' theme is one of my all-time faves.

    Michael: Thank you.

    The Mistress of the D: I finally saw "Xanadu" for the first time earlier this year. That movie is just covered in Velveeta.

  10. I saw "Sea of Love" and had to look at this post. That has been my all time favorite song. I never saw a picture of Phil Phillips. Wonder what's he's doing now.

  11. Linda: Thanks so much for commenting. After checking Wikipedia, I found that Phil Phillips is alive and well and living in Louisiana. He even has his own MySpace page. Here is the link:
