From the song,"May I"..."There's 4 and 20 reasons why it can't be wrong." = "24" !!! ;)

Also,(and how could I miss this obvious fact?)
for position five,"If You Could Read My Mind",
reached "#5" on the American pop charts in 1971. :cool:


Lastly,where's my suggestion for #26?
"26" thousand tons more,from "Wreck".

5 could be Blackberry Wine
got a new dress at the 5 and dime.
23 The Watchman's Gone or is that 2 engines on 21 coaches long mean 21 total or 21 cars plue 2 engines for 23? hmmmm oh well.

Oh, grief, I think I have started something....
That "new math" came from my kids, I think! LOL!

hey B, i updated the list from a copy & paste of the most recent version that Doug had done for us, so my update was only as thorough as that [img]tongue.gif[/img]

but thanks for the great new additions - brink, good stuff, i think engines and coaches are mutually exclusive so it's thumbs up from the Canuck judge (and even Simon :) )

Gary, keep churning out the totals on the abacus, lol...Anne Murray hit #11 on the country charts with her cover of Cotton Jenny but maybe we can do better then that for 11 and the other voids :)

hey, open for suggestions on upgrading any of the existing (aiming to keep this fun and not too anal :) )

According to "Wayne" in an archived signing of the guest book,Gordon appeared on Channel 11 out of Hamilton/Ontario,on a show called "Club 11 Dance Party" in 1967.

So you can use either Channel "11" (which I'm sure he was on may more times than that)
or "Club 11" Dance Party. :)

#18 can be Waiting For You because that's his 18th official studio album.

Still working on #25. :rolleyes:

B'stone, I think this is where YOU're suppose to take it away. You have a gimmick, and a Boris Karlof impression. Use your imagination....

Honestly,I tried to figure it out RMD,but I'm not sure what you mean. :confused:

Can you please elaborate? :)

You've been handed a concept. Present an audition tape if you wish ....but don't whine if you don't.

Ahhhhhhh!! :) Now I got it. :rolleyes:

Sometimes my brain is a computer...sometimes it's a jigsaw puzzle! :D LOL!

Yes< ican submit a tape based on that,I have to rustle up a VHS camera first. They don't accpet discs for some strange reason. :confused:

Thanks RMD. ;)

B'stone,

I'm rootin' for ya. It would be wonderful to watch you win big bucks.

"Borderstone/Walter (last name here),the banker has offered you $11,000......Deal...or no Deal?"

B: Howie...I came to demote that big banker to a tiny drive up window teller...NO DEAL!! :D LOL!

EXCELLENT ! That's the spirit.

Congrats, guys! Finally it is finished!
