Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
He moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers cried and sang along and who'd blame them
Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever
Go toora loora toora loo rye aye
And we can sing just like our fathers

Come on Eileen, well I swear (what he means)
At this moment, you mean everything
With you in that dress my thoughts I confess
Verge on dirty
Ah come on Eileen

These people round here wear beaten down eyes
Sunk in smoke dried faces
They're so resigned to what their fate is
But not us, no not us
We are far too young and clever
Eileen I'll sing this tune forever

Come on Eileen well I swear (what he means)
Ah come on, let's take off everything
That pretty red dress Eileen (tell him yes)
Ah come on Eileen

JD - didn't anyone tell you that there are no prizes here? I hate when that happens. Answer a few more and maybe we can get you a Brewers victory. They did nicely last night.

Very good Web. I will be amazed if anyone actually knows this. I know the movie, but not the answer!


Question 65.


What speed did Marty have to reach in order to activate the flux capacitor? (once you remember the movie, this should be easy)

Although, who says that he hasn't been successful? If he were, do you think he would tell us?

I didn't try to make one . . . that would be silly.

It is really pretty simple though . . . you take the total mass of the Delorian in kilograms, multiply that by the power factor of the food inserted into "Mr. Fusion", then divide that by the time-space continuum constant and you get and even 88 mph.

I just checked this one out. I missed out on it. I missed a Duran Duran question. That stinks! Oh, well. I'll have to make up points quickly. I still haven't read the whole thread yet. I stopped on page 5. Breaks almost over, so I'll catch up on it later.
