I never understood the lyrics of that song. If it bothered the songwriter, why not just give the damn horse a name? Stupid lyrics. Call the horse Lyrica. That's a good name for a horse.
But I bet it felt good to get out of the rain. And on that hard drive, one can't remember their name, coz there ain't nothing there for to give them no pain.
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.
Singing Foo!

It felt good to get out of the RAM
How old are you, Dr. Grumpy? I can remember this, but I'm ANCIENT.
Hee hee! Give the younglings some arcane pop culture to research!
(I grew up with pop culture that still referred to the '40s. They can deal.)

And I thought I was the only one who liked to name their drives after restaurants in Boston.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who will be singing this all day...
Best song ever about heroin.

I used to ride a horse called Lyric.....
Always thought that song was really odd.

I can follow the America, "Horse with No Name" reference, but am lost after that with any Apple stuff. Sad but true.
It's becoming harder to live in present day society.
next line: It's so good to have no one to blame.
@bobbie- Don't forget the theme song to "Mr. Ed." Especially the Velvet Underground's version.
Never played Nethack, eh?
