OK... fine with me. I suspect the other regulars to this thread would approve as well, so go ahead man!

1) He's a pool shootin' son of a gun
Yeah. he's big and dumb as a man can come
But he's stronger than a country hoss,
And when the bad folks all get together at night
You know they all call big Jim "Boss,"

2) Well, I don't think I can handle this
A cloudy day in Metropolis
I think I'll talk to my analyst
I got it so bad for this little journalist

3) Any trick in the book now, baby, all that I can find
Everybody's hustlin' just to have a little scene
When I say we'll be cool I think that you know what I mean
We stood on a beach at sunset, do you remember when?
I know a beach where, baby, a-it never ends
When you've made your mind up forever to be mine


Go For IT. And good luck

2. Pocket Full of Kryptonite by Spin Doctors.

1 sounds like that song by Jim Croce. I don't know the name of it, but it's that "You Don't Mess Around with Jim" song. Sorry I don't know the title.

No idea on 3. I don't see a theme here, either.

I need to stick to one at a time.

Correct! So we've got 1 & 2 down what's the third and the theme that binds them?

Theme is people you don't mess around with?

Nope, you have to dig deeper than that.

People named Jim that are super that you don't mess around with unless you have a pocket full of kryptonite?

 

[Speedin Bullet]

As soon as the last one is guessed, the theme will be apparent.

 

[Truthteller]

Theme is "Superman" That is songs that mention the name Superman in them...

Correct!
1) You don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't spit into the wind, you don't pull the mask off the old lone ranger and you don't mess around with Jim

2) Oh Lois Lane please put me in your plan, Oh Lois Lane you don't need no Superman. Come on downtown and stay with me tonight, I got a pocket full of Kryptonite.

3) Thought you got me didn't you. Still need some guessing.

 

[kbomb106]

Superman in mentioned in Don't Mess Around with Jim? Oh.

Off topic, TT, did you get my PM last night?

Yes... I got it, THANKS! Problem is I have been slammed at work...

Question... Can I use my dailup connection at home to do our project?

You can but I wouldn't recommend it. Your average SHN is 30-70 MB. You only have broadband at work?

 

[Speedin Bullet]

I'll be off for a bit. The NyQuil is finally kicking in, I must get my rest. Keep guessing. I will get back in a whil.e

Yep... and my networking folks at work won't take kindly to an internet filesharing program running...

Bummer, dude. Thinking about going broadband at home? If so, you might want to wait. If not, you can still use an analog connection, but to be quite honest, it's going to suck. Some albums take me all night, and I have a cable connection that's pretty fast. If worse comes to absolute worst, people are willing to do B&P trades.

 

[Speedin Bullet]

BUMP!

 

[Speedin Bullet]

Wow, no one has guessed the third song yet. Do you all give up?
