Beethoven's Ninth Is Really Great

[quote name='Sojourner' date='Jun 24 2004, 09:08 PM'] Au contraire, mon frere -- Beethoven did, indeed write words for this symphony; they're just not the lyrics Robert Schiller used when he co-opted its theme for his drinking song. [/quote]
But not to Ode Of Joy. He set the poem to music. Therefore the Rat is right again.

Barnyard squabble?! How dare thou?!

*pulls out glove for slapping*




You know, I can't read Jacob's heart, but I really think we're mostly just putting on a show. We like making fun of each other. It's fun.

Ah, yes, you are right, dear Jacob! I apparently misread my info. Carry on!

*Micah pulls out his ninja double swords, his father's shotgun, his mother's .38 Police Special, his mother's Daisy BB Gun, his three bow and arrow sets, his pocket knife, his brother's hunting knife, his brother's bowie knife, his brother's airsoft gun, his brother's shortsword, his brother's dagger, and his home-made pipe-bazooka*

*Micah takes the flag flown over the US Capital in honor of his family and gets a standard bearer to carry it*

*Jacob sees all the weapons (which Micah really does have) and remember's that Micah is a second amendment supporting, disgruntled, Republican Irishman and runs*

*Jacob grabs his saber, his brothers swords, his 85 lb draw compound bow, his bat, his dog, runs thourgh all the disarming stuff he knows.*

*Jumps in the armored range picking golf cart, takes patao canon, fires a fast salvo at Micah's feet*

*Reminds Micah, not even Rome could conquer Germany. That number are 16:1 for Germans killed.*

Hehe...Iacobus will become a Republican. I'll make him an offer he can't refuse.

We're just takin' it to the mattresses!

Yes, my crime connections are a bit odd...but if you want something even more odd, Al Capone's brother was a legendary sheriff in Nebraska...and Al Capone buried the bodies in the town of Pennsylvania, Kansas in ditches along the sides of the roads and rivers.

In absolute fairness, I've never been arrested or ticketed, but I have broken the law...I've jaywalked, I've riden my bike on the sidewalk, I've been in possession of marijuana...okay...that third one is true, but only on a technicality...if you PM me you can find out how...
