(RESPONSE:): Just as good if not better!!!  (In my defense I have
slept quite a bit since earlier!!!, and I'm going off after this!!!)

(RESPONSE): Yes very true, but I suppose I find other meanings in my
vast imagination....When that album came out, I suppose I was one of
the ones "shocked" by the "ballad" or whatever it is, but it has
ripened and I like it.....I never meant to "go off" like I did, I just
did, and now my point is only 1, and I do not pretend ANYONE give a
(edit), but it's just "no voices" and _especially_ "love me forever"
that make me start cringing musically, nothing to do with the
lyric....the rest is dandy....just realised this today....

(RESPONSE): They did, I am sure, go there for one of those things, and
I am also sure I have a bootleg with Lemmy referring to "the other

I know the Ramones are legendary, and I certainly like them as people

(RESPONSE): Carl if you just _happen_ to have the Space Ritual poster
that came in the japanese original LP version or the British version
known as "Edmonton"  (poster only, sold seperate) could you please

expect you too but I had to ask!!!!
