Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

Passed my 24 hours, and I believe I have one of the remaining ones:

2/23-3/15 - "Crazy Little Thing Called Love", Queen

(Until a couple weeks ago, I had no idea that that was actually a Queen song.  Not sure who I actually thought sang it.)

Olivia Newton-John's seemingly easily forgotten hit.

Probably because it came from an easily forgotten movie, Xanadu. ;-)
