Finally I do well on a test, get declared 'smart' and you people have to come along and rain on my parade. If anyone needs me, I'll be listening to rap music in my car.

Originally Posted By Labuda Btw, i'm with lisa. Some rap is good. I'm a fan of Ice-T myself. DMX I liked, too, but never paid attention to lyrics the way I did/do with Ice-T songs. Oh, so does anybody know who did that rap song they mentioned?
Originally Posted By threeundertwo Never said rap was bad! Just that it isn't part of my intelligence. I don't know the scientific names of most starfish either, but that doesn't make them bad. I don't think any of us intended anything negative about rap. I for one am sensitive about what people say about *my* music (that boring classical stuff). >>I miss you 3 under and Ursula My next b-day is my 33rd so we should do the Club 33 lunch again with ilvdland.>> I'll be at DL April 8-10. You are more than welcome to treat me to a meal at Club 33. ;-)

Anyway, if anyone really wants to feel smart, try this simple little Christmas quiz my bash pal (Liberty Belle) sent me: <a href="http://www.carols.org.uk/christmas-quiz.htm" target="_blank">http://www.carols.org.uk/chris tmas-quiz.htm</a> Let me know when you finish it.
