Links Leaked over the Lyrics and Quotes

Can I Quote You?
Wisdom and conversation were the same thing at Tuesday Open Comments Night, last night. We heard from Oscar Wilde, Somerset Maugham, and Betty White So it was no real surprise when the links started leaking as they always do.
The Link Leak Virus seeped into every thing we saw. — The Link Leak Virus is a special strain of the indie virus with blogtipping mutations that occur in threes at Open Comment Night they become a link free-for-all.
Welcome to all of the new folks who came. It was great fun having you!

“You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat.”

Sudden-savage-shining-solid-soiled-solid-sanded
Steel-shuddering-shattering-shovelling until the
Sabre toothed rooter roots the earth
The eater eats his fill and is not satisfied and
Roars and reves his mathematical rage
on the footprints of Vikings
trapped on a sonic tape recorder
ten million years old, ten million years old, ten million years old.

OK, Instead of Bette Davis, how about a quote from Betty White?
All creatures must learn to coexist. That’s why the brown bear and the field mouse can share their lives in harmony. Or course, they can’t mate or the mice would explode.

Indeed, it was a good time for all… every open mic night seems to get better… like fine wine… better with age
ME Strauss said
Like fine wine, Sean. It’s all about the wonderful ingredients!
Rick Cockrum said
I liked seanrox’s quote from Einstein about telegraph and radio, and the exploding mouse Chris brought. I can hear Betty White saying that.
ME Strauss said
Hi Rick,
So do I. Funny, I can hear Chris doing Betty White saying that!
You must watch the Christopher Walking dancing YouTube thing. If you’ve never seen it. . . . it’s amazing.
Rick Cockrum said
I had never seen it, though Lady Glynis and my daughter had. It was great. He dances well. I kept seeing Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire.
ME Strauss said
Glad you got to see it, Rick. It makes me smile, just to think about it.
Jessica said
