A courageous conservationist speaks out ...

But (also unlike wolves) they're so tasty!

I know, love them! If I ever in my lifetime come near a weapon they are the first to go

Crossing another thread here, I remember in the sleeve notes for Damn Yankees, a certain motormouth making a comment, "And all the squirrel you can eat (not sorry Tommy)..."

All threads here end in rodents or Ritchie.

Mostly at least, the default culmination seems to be anal sex.

You're forgetting Gwyneth. Or us she covered under anal sex?

Gwyneth is covered under anything and everything. She's universal.

I've got a friend who is pretty much smitten with her. 

[uwe]

She has enduring appeal to older men, so I've heard. Often the more grumpy type.

[westen44]

My friend has a real thing for blondes.  For the most part I never cared all that much about blondes, usually being way more interested in brunettes and redheads, especially the latter.

Nope. Grumpy, yes, but she doesn't appeal to me.

I just remembered, he did a Hammersmith Odeon gig for the charity World Wildlife Fund, even going as far as having it emblazoned on the T's... might still have it... didn't make much sense at the time... perhaps he wanted to promote animal conservation so he could shoot them at a later date...

I must say I never much kept up with hardly anything Ted Nugent did even during his so-called heyday.  Was he ever really that famous?  Or maybe I'm even more out of touch than I realized.  I've never been around one person in real life who was ever one of his fans.  I don't think he was ever as famous in the South as he must have been in other places.  I've heard of Journey to the Center of the Mind by the Amboy Dukes.  Later I heard people talk just a little about Damn Yankees.  But I wouldn't even be able to name one song by them.  Nobody I was ever around ever cared much about any of this stuff.  It was barely on anyone's radar when all this was happening.  Once again, though, maybe I was just really out of touch.  I will say, however, that the brief glimpses I caught of him gave me the impression that he had an extremely goofy on-stage persona.  I wasn't interested, regardless of how talented he might have been.  Plus, what little I did hear of the music didn't much get my attention anyway.

Same here, that journey to the center tune is the only Nugent related song I have. Never heard of him or anyone who listened
to his music while growing up in Norway. I recall seeing the name on a '50 best guitarists' list or something like that in a magazine,
other than that I only relate the name to a Chevy Chase movie.

The era that encompassed the two Discreet LPs and the first two, maybe three, Epic LP's were exceptionally good rock material that should not be ignored... and one later LP that was pretty good... the later stuff is just a re-hash... the earlier stuff is a bit "of it's time"...

Call of the Wild, Tooth Fang and Claw, Ted Nugent, Free For All, and Cat Scratch Fever (most of) ... and the later "Nugent"...

Curiously enough, this is mostly the Rob Grange on the bass era...

[westen44]

I had completely forgotten about "Cat Scratch Fever."  They used to play that on the radio.  As for the album that was on, I'm not sure if I heard any of the other songs, but maybe one.  This music wasn't registering with me much.  I could take it or leave it.  Also, now that I look back at it, I think I've heard of "Tooth, Fang & Claw."  But looking at the time frame, I only had time to focus on music I already knew I liked.  No free time at all to explore.
