If I post a line from a song and then somebody else posts the next line... and we end up posting the entire song, does that break the rules?

I see new thread potential...

Yep... that's the perfect description.

As long as people promise that they're singing along to the lines they post!

Is this the Mary Ethel from "Lucky Stiff"?

I wonder if we could get a group together and have drinks at my place? Brooklyn, NY. We could watch old Tony Awards tapes and some of my Chita stuff.

Pull *that* off and you could sell tickets and call it a fundraiser.

Why does no one PM me 211 times? Sometimes, it just doesn't pay to be uncontroversial.
Any pointers, Bgirl?

I'd love to come, but since I'll have to take a plane to get there, you'll have to give me enough advance notice.

Oh dear, Chita, with that guest list I think you'd better hide the cutlery. Blood is so hard to get out of the carpet.

Mr. Singer, if the 211 PM's were at least somewhat worthwhile, I'd be the first one overjoyed at the prospect of reading each and every one of them.

For the record, I responded to a couple posts regarding MaryFingEthel in the sarcastic Jose' appreciation thread, that I guess he wasn't happy with. So many more controversial posters on this board, and somehow I doubt they get hundreds of PM's from one person that disagrees with them. Some people have too much time on their hands.

I hung out with Cheyenne Jackson in his dressing room waayyyyyy before he tickled D2.

See, I'd just be excited to see that "211 new messages" thing...

I've lost nearly all of my respect for Mary_Ethel, and however unnecessary this thread is, and what a waste of bandwidth, I can't help but agree with a lot of it.

And I now <3 Kringas...

So I'm busy one weekend with family and being JOY-ous and LOOK what I missed!

Was Mary_Egbert banned again? For copyright infringement or statutory posting?

And dang! I guess from now on I'll have to post just "snippets" from my liberal blogs! (It's actually about time--we really should be standing up for copyright holders anyway--not just to protect the copyright but also to protect BWW!)

And, yes, Addy--technically we could each post a snippet and be within the definition of fair use. However, the appearance of a complete lyric on BWW in several consecutive posts might be just as actiable as the appearance of a complete lyric in a single post. Brdlwyer?

But did Mary_Exlax melt down or just leave in a huff? Link, please!

yr pal,

Don't know how to link, but it started in the Jose Appreciation Thread.

Started a bit before the Jose thread. MaryFingEthel posted lyrics here, complained that the same thread just got deleted from ATC, then the thread got deleted from here too. The Jose thread was started by someone else, but MFE basically took it and ran with it.
