Yeah. It's all southeastern England's fault.

you turn your back on them for a few years, and they build tunnels to France.

Chunnel sounds like it would make a good name for a candy bar.

It sounds to me like something you would throw off a ship to keep sharks away.

On the other hand, as I recall, WalksWithCrowds "killed" the first thread. Anyone seen him lately?

Three possibilities come to mind: 1. WalksWithCrowds felt he had accomplished what he needed to do on LW when he killed the original thread, so he moved on. 2. Having killed the original thread, WWC now thinks he's too good for us.  3. In killing the original thread, WWC somehow forfeited his own life. Do we want to take that chance? DO NOT KILL THIS THREAD!!!!

 If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try
Take a chance on me
(That's all I ask of you honey)
Take a chance on me
We can go dancing, we can go walking, as long as we're together
Listen to some music, maybe just talking, get to know you better
'Cos you know I've got
So much that I wanna do, when I dream I'm alone with you
It's magic
You want me to leave it there, afraid of a love affair
But I think you know
That I can't let go
If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try
Take a chance on me
(Come on, give me a break will you?)
Take a chance on me
Oh you can take your time baby, I'm in no hurry, know I'm gonna get you
You don't wanna hurt me, baby don't worry, I ain't gonna let you
Let me tell you now
My love is strong enough to last when things are rough
It's magic
You say that I waste my time but I can't get you off my mind
No I can't let go
'Cos I love you so
If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best, baby can't you see
Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me
(Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me)
Ba ba ba ba baa, ba ba ba ba baa
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best, baby can't you see
Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me
(Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me)
Ba ba ba ba baa, ba ba ba ba baa ba-ba
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me

Which reminds me of a line from that 1994 Australian comedy, Muriel's Wedding:
"When I lived in Porpoise Spit, I used to sit in my room for hours and listen to ABBA songs. But since I've met you and moved to Sydney, I haven't listened to one ABBA song. That's because my life is as good as an ABBA song. It's as good as 'Dancing Queen'."

I  love ABBA. Nearly 30 years after their split, ABBA's songs are still the gold standard of pop music. Ironically, my favorite song of theirs, "If It Wasn't for the Nights", was not released as a single.

Dear Abba,
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing.

On a dare, I once proved to someone that "Dancing Queen" (or at least the beginning of it) could be sung to the hymn tune "Abbot\'s Leigh" .

I once showed someone that you could sing The Who's "My Generation" to the tune of "Yellow Submarine".

Neil Gaiman once observed that basically any poem of Emily Dickinson can be sung to the tune of "Yellow Rose of Texas."
