That's abo...Allan R., I loooove your choices! <br /><br />That's about as punk as Richard Thompson's ever gonna get. But I prefer a different kind of fire in the engine room. <br /><br />RT and most men need to realize that treason ISN'T treason. It's just your baby's way of riling you up in hopes of turning your rage into flaming passion. Sometimes a girl needs something rough to put her in her place. Real men don't get butt hurt and angry, they fuck us senseless. <br /><br />And isn't that what everyone wants? Just some free advice should the situation arise.<br /><br />Also, the Roues Brothers tune is a dilly. You are definitely on top of things. I love those guys too, but I would have chosen "From a Blaze To Ashes." But why quibble.<br /><br />Are you the Disc Jockey guy? If so, where can you be heard?<br /><br />Greetings from Ensenada,<br /><br />Vickie Rock<br /><br />P.S. I have a real good story about a lengthy encounter I had with Richard Thompson in Claremont, California. But it's the kind of thing that is best not revealed in this forum. I will say that it involves something rather, shall we say, twisted and kinky in the realm of fetish and sex. Something that I had never encountered before. And I am a woman of both experience and adventure. So....I'll leave it at that.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-78403843991948221582014-05-19T13:35:31.569-04:002014-05-19T13:35:31.569-04:0096 Degrees In The Shade - Third World96 Degrees In The Shade - Third WorldPadre Mickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07580459577853346369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-30370089242192435102014-05-18T22:25:07.361-04:002014-05-18T22:25:07.361-04:00Television - Fire - a personal fave which I just r...Television - Fire - a personal fave which I just remembered - what a great band!<br /><br />Fleetwood Mac - Love That Burns<br /><br />Free - Fire and Water [also Wilson Pickett]<br /><br />T.

Eve runs through our DNA. We delight in men's certain corruption. They eat right out of our wicked hands. We are vessels of temptation and overwhelming trance. We ignite sweet lust's darkest wanton essence. We bring the enlightenment of Eden as the serpent empowers, enraptures and binds our fleshly praise. We bring bewitchment to your loins and infuse your blood with the intoxicating venom of guiltlessness and liberation. We take possession and lay you to waste. Damnation is delicious as the end of our lash. <br /><br />Deep Purple - Burn<br /><br />Vickie Rock divin' and dippin' at Pappy & Harriet's located deep in the enchanting California desert.
