Quotewonderboy Why is it England Dan and John Ford Coley? Because Dan was a fan of an English band, The Beatles, and he didn't want to use his last name--Seals--because his older brother was using it in his duo Seals & Croft. "Ford" created better flow in the name John Colley, while "Colley" was hard to pronounce correctly so it was changed to "Coley."

On a slightly different but related tangent . . . My brother once told my family (and me) about the night he went out with two girls to a party. It was a big party, apparently, lots happening and such. He was in university at the time, 1967, trying to finish a degree in architecture at the University of Alberta. Anyways the story goes that he went with these two girls to a party and the

A 'C', an E-flat, and a 'G' go into a bar. The bartender says: "Sorry, but we don't serve minors." So, the E-flat leaves, and the C and the G have an open fifth between them. After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished: the G is out flat. An F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp enough. A D comes into the bar and heads straight f

Way too many in the EU for that at the moment. Could this be the beginning of other nations' leaving also?

Quotestanlove I thought that past 1971 Ali was a very boring fighters except for the Foreman fight. His fights were so full of non fighting and game playing. I didn't enjoy his fights at all when he got older. Not sure how you can exclude his Frazier fights (II and Thrilla in Manila). If you include them and the Foreman fight (as you do), you could say he was the Greatest from somewhere
