Yeah. The Frankie-Goes-To-Hollywood song "Relax" is rather "adult" in its subtext for 8 year olds to be referencing (I didnt even know about its gay subtext until a deejay I met explained it to my already middle aged self).

Kinda like hearing young Micheal, leading the Jackson Five, singing with his then grade school age sounding voice "touch me in the morning". What were they thinking?

I don't understand Korean culture where it is acceptable for men to wear lipstick.

@babybird

:oops:

Looks like I am wrong.

I knew that the most famous version was by Dianna Ross. What you usually hear. But It might be that I heard the tail end of her version a coupla times on the radio..and her adult female voice being so similar to his juvenile male voice...I guess I wrongly thought it was the Jackson Five doing a cover version. Like they musta done a less popular but still popular version of it.

Been trying to track it down on the web...but cant find mention of an MJ5 version of it. :evil: :(

Why do I feel the need to act up and try to be funny when things don't go my way? Why can't I carry on like the rest of the members of my WP family instead. One of these days the stuff I post when I'm not satisfied with myself could get me into a lot of trouble and I don't want that to happen. I've got to accept that I don't get my accent from Britain or Canada.

Should I keep recording my voice or give the online tape recorder a break?

I'm starting to use discord a lot more than I used to and it's confusing. I've gotten too used to the style of WP. I like this style better though.

Now that I have a template for knowing which page is which page to print on a foldable booklet...

Like how the first and last page of a single signature is the very same half of each other's page sheet before binded and stapled.
Though I've yet to make a template to do more than 1 set of signature per few pages.

Might as well just master cutting those I need to trim.
Also I need a better strategy of stapling the pages into the center. :?
Sure a #10 would've been sufficient, but I rather have something bigger than 24/6.

I've got 2012 on my mind. How I was into Swinging London and keeping the stiff upper lip. The fun times I've had and the foolish things I've said.
