Hey you old goats. Your idol died of a heart attack today. If you still smoke, you'll be joining him real soon. Better quit if you want to see 70. Sad

Well,
I'm not over 45 and I don't smoke--
but I do remember watching The Monkees re-runs A LOT as a youngster.
The show and the music just made a person feel good--

Thanks for the memories, David--Rest In Peace!

Well, pretty much ditto.
My favorite Monkees song is "Valleri".

I'm just over 45 and I think that Davy Jones is still a little beyond my age group... do the math: the show was on TV late 60s, aimed at teenagers. So maybe ur post should be aimed at folks over 55.

Ooh. Someone took their empowerment pill before they posted. Feels sweet making fun of a person who just died I guess. Or, maybe the boss just was too critical of the Milleniall today and posting is coping.

DBB says: Lighten up Francis. Pure sarcasm there, I bet I got at least ten years on you. Razz




When I die and they lay me to rest

Gonna go to the place that's the best

When I lay me down to die

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky



Prepare yourself, you know it's a must

Gotta have a friend in Mohamed

So you know that when you die

He's gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky
