I work with a Lynne and a Linda too. But the most popular female name I know is Margaret and variations on the theme, Megan, Peggy etc. I know about 10 Margarets. You are probably all roughly the same age.

Linda_Lakeside my name should therefore be Paula_PetrolStation.

<-----------That's Weird Al Yankovic, for those of you who haven't noticed yet.

I'm a big fan! That avatar is from http://www.weirdal.com. I'm also a Wayne Gretzky fan. He's a former hockey player.

Two 80s ICONS: Al and Wayne!

I guess mine is as simple as Tom's. Maybe I'll even keep it...

Yes, it looks like a very straight forward avatar, tom. Perhaps you can explain it to me one day. Don't tell me, it's the universe, it's the sun with the planets going 'round (same thing, I guess) it's, it's, it's your avatar!!! There, I knew I'd get it.

YG: Gretzky is not a former hockey player. He is the Canadian man who best represents the game, the big daddy of hockey, the Hockey Hall of Fame Hero, the..the..

Oh, you are so right! How could I be so thick?

Well, I'm on the road again (bet you don't know who sang that). Goodbye tom and Tom. See you in about a week. Don't think I'll get to my topic notifications, but it will be fun watching the evolution of the board!

See youz,

Linda.

Which "road" are you talking about?

First:
Well the last time that I heard it
It was Bob "The Bear" Hite who sang
And the band was called Canned Heat

Second:
The last time that I heard it, the band
was "Grateful Dead" and Jerry Garcia
still played the guitar as a young man and alive...

Third:
I just sang both. Bet you didn't know that!

:)

I was thinking WILLIE. Canned Heat are no longer!!! If they ever have R&R in your house - add a country tune. That one!

See ya,
Linda.
