Postby red x red » Tue Oct 11, 2005 1:01 am

"Monster in my Pants" B-52's
"Devil in Darkness" Freur
"Cry Little Sister" Sister of Mercy (from LostBoys Soundtrack)

ACK! Could I beg you all to hold off on this topic for a bit? I know FritzB is cooking us up a special Halloween NTT treat. I'd hate to spoil it, but certainly you're certainly free to discuss whatever the want.

It was just a polite suggestion, not a request or demand or anything else. Fritz has been extremely gracious with us, I thought maybe we could maybe show him some consideration in return to everyone's benefit. But, whatever.

I know Wolvie. I wouldn't think anything else. And I didn't mean my reply to mean anything else either. I don't mean to be overbearing in any way. Sorry. Just chiming my 2 cents.


Er, hmm, I seem to be up to about $2billion...2 cents at a time. [:I]

[/quote]Hehe, no worries. They've IDed a couple of the more obvious choices, but if that's all they know, they'll only get 12 points on my game. They'll have to go alot deeper than that. <img src="http://home.comcast.net/~fritzb1/devilwink.gif">

BTW: NTT 26 Halloween Edition will launch after Blir's WLIR game ends.

Wow . . . Horrorgirl, that's an impressive list! I'd forgot completely about "Psycho Killer" by the Talking Heads. That one should have sprung to mind immediately. Good work!
