FTD.com is offering a 2k mile bonus to your UA account for 2 orders through 10/31 so I thought it would be nice to send the wife something (on the cheaper end) the weekends I would be away. I also happen to need 4k UA miles to top off my account. Well, this is worse than ticketmaster.

Some of the stuff I built actually worked! :D
By the time I was 12 I could solder a PC board well enough that it looked factory. |

sfogate, since you're in Teh Pit, this one's for you....name that tune (hint....this is the second verse):
If you're ever in Houston, well, you better do the right; You better not gamble, there, you better not fight, at all Or the sheriff will grab ya and the boys will bring you down. The next thing you know, boy, Oh! You're prison bound. CHORUS First one to name it gets a gold star (no search engines allowed) as in the last line: ...Next thing you know, boy -- you're penitentiary bound |

Good night! and is Dylan the answer to your question? I semi-cheated (phoned a friend) so no gold star for me.
Lots of people have performed the song, but Leadbelly is probably the one who first popularized it. |
if you get a chance watch madventures on the travel channel. It is insane.

Your answer is also quite incorrect. :rolleyes: If you're gonna do wrong (by cheating), do wrong right! :rolleyes:

Going to edit the post here - never heard of Leadbelly and didn't see xyzzy's pointer towards Midnight Special. Love CCR but never would have associated the lyrics with them or anyone else. Good job, Mr. XYZZY. My con call buddies need to learn their bands! :D |

I'm strongly considering canceling my AmEx Platinum because of this. I don't fly AA or DL enough to justify it and I can always go back to platinum later. Saving $450/year in the meantime isn't so bad. I'll have to keep some sort of AmEx product so I can meep my 300K MR points active, but not paying for the Plat when the only real benefit is lounge access I'll otherwise have seems to make sense for me.
Oh, and the *A Mega Do flights will be sufficient for me to renew another year of *G (i.e. lounge through 2011), and they come at the very beginning of my program year. The other Q-Ups and whatnot just put me in the race to 55K and beyond. |

I am thinking about the same thing w/my AmEx Plat -- although my renewal is 6mths away now. I just need to know what AmEx card product to switch to -- green, gold? -- to preserve MR pts.

Midnight Special -- though the lyrics I know are a little different in that they scan better,
as in the last line: ...Next thing you know, boy -- you're penitentiary bound Thanks for playing....now here's the bonus round (I hope Plus1 is watching): Which movie did John Lithgow, upon hearing that song on the car radio, proclaim "I love Creedence!"?? Now I'm really going to bed....will check for a winner in the morning. |

I have no idea but I liked Steve's question.
I'm kind of a lyrics nerd (I should try out for that show Wayne Brady hosts)....whenever one of our singers would forget the words during a gig, they would turn around to me for a hint. Now watch me forget the words or lose my place when I'm singing the first time some Box folks come down to a gig....ugh :rolleyes: |
