Everytime I read this thread I think of this, so since it has morphed into meaninglessness, I thought I would contribute.
Quote:
I know a cat named Way-Out Willie,
Got a cool little chick named Rocking Millie.
He can walk and stroll and Susie Q
And do that crazy hand jive, too.
Mama, mama, look at Uncle Joe
Doing the hand jive with sister Flo.
Grandma gave baby sister a dime;
Said, "Do that hand jive one more time."

By the way, gaul=gall (as in gallstones), and rediculous=ridiculous. Just trying to be helpful. And while I am at it, everyone, then and than are not interchangeable.
Then: at that time: soon after that : next in order of time "I searched the room,
then I saw her standing there by the record machine."
Than: a function word used in comparison. "Wow, this is heavier
than that."
Not picking on anyone, just placing a few observations out there in an attempt to educate.
