        <body>It's a little-known fact that both Ginger and Mary Ann were volleyball players. So, if you were choosing 'a partner' for a 'match', who would you choose?

Mary Ann would be a better digger and hustler and would get her hands dirty.  Ginger would just stand there and try to look good.</body>

        <body>Getting back to a previous question, my vote would be for Mary Ann.  I was always a sucker for that wholesome, girl-next-door look.  (I wanted to also say &amp;quot;corn fed&amp;quot; but seeing how the subject of corn took a horrifying turn here lately, perhaps I better not).</body>

------------------
You pose an interesting existential question.  Why are we still here?  Where are we going?  When we get there, will there be snacks?</body>

        <body>the radio is playing inagoddadivida. unfortunetly it will be the short version. great drum sollow in the middle of the long version.

The drummer was Ron Bushey, if I recall correctly.  And yes, that was a very good drum solo in the middle of the long version.  I thought Iron Butterfly actually put out quite a few good songs, but that one is the one everyone remembers them by.  And rightfully so.</body>

  <body>&lt;p&gt;Swimming superstar &lt;strong&gt;Michael Phelps&lt;/strong&gt; has signed a book deal with an imprint of Simon &amp;amp; Schuster. The inside story behind his record eight gold medals is expected to hit bookstores in time for the holiday season.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The working title is &amp;quot;Built to Succeed.&amp;quot; We hate to carp, but yawnnnnn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the 10 Spot, though, we do more than merely criticize. Here are some suggested titles for a Phelps book with a little more pizzazz:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;10.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;The Young Man and the Heavily Chlorinated Water&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;9.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;My Mom Went to Beijing and All I Got Were These Eight Lousy Gold Medals&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;8.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;The Seven World Records of Highly Effective People&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;7.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;The Sun Also Rises, Even If You Can&amp;#39;t See It in Beijing&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;Lord of the Fly, Free, Breast and Back&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;Moby Dick Was Fat and Slow&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;A Portrait of the Athlete as a Young Man&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;Can Someone Please Peel This Suit Off Me!&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;The Guinness Book of My Records&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1.&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;quot;Harry Potter Would&amp;#39;ve Drowned&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;</body>
