Hmm... I think that the Elton John song would be funny! How about these songs?

Take this job and shove it- Johnny Paycheck

The Gambler- Kenny Rogers

Just some good ol' classic, country songs!

EDIT: I think this post is bad luck, it's my 666th post!!

I am of the opinion that "When I'm 64" would work best in with the medium.

I think it would be funny to have them singing Faith Hill and Tim McGraw! (Yes, I do listen to country music)

That was the worst rule ever!
I was in the Downer, I'm honored! But there's just one problem... I don't remember saying that... I must have done it when I was sleeping... Either that, or the news lied... nah, that never happens.

Heh heh... same here.

That was a great article, by the way. Both of them.

I thought that too... but I, on the other hand, will only got my news from one source: The Downer.

But, if you have to start paying actual money for the Downer, I'm switching to The Barrow. After all, it's only 7 1/2p

What a conundrum! How would one go about repping Mr. Formendacil for his contribution?

Find a post he's done on this thread? Or go around to his house and steal his gold, then post it back to him...

The only paper I will ever read is the one, the only, the Downer!
The only thing that would stop me is if I had to pay money for it. Then I wouldn't read any news!

If it's of any assistance, I'll be out of town all weekend, so my lack-of-gold should be relatively unguarded, other than the giant spiders.

Glad you enjoyed it.

I would have thought that Formendacil would not lay up his gold where thieves may break through and steal--even such a thief as Bilbo, bearing riddles--so his spiders will be undisturbed whilst he is out of town.
