"And here we find the natural habitat of that rare, reclusive creature Goffis Laboris, commonly known as the Goffy. Note the huge mound of paper used in the construction of his burrow. Naturalists disagree whether this mound's purpose is to provide shelter, camouflage, or provide a secure resting place. Unfortunately, we are unable to show any photos of the Goffy, as he has not emerged during the entire time we were filming. We are, however, certain he exists, as the mound shifted several times during filming, and the camera crew clearly heard the characteristic sounds of muffled cursing on several occasions."

Edge's name comes from the angleness of his head around the chin. Besides, it might also deal with his guitar playing. No other player has been able to duplicate his sound, though I think one of the guitarists from Collective Soul came close. Ross Childress perhaps? And they're U2 fans as well.

The Monkeys were controlled by the people the assimbled the band, for the TV show. They didn't play or write, but they could both play and write, at least Nesmith could write. Bryce and Heart worte a good bit of their music, but were under orders not to take a stand on anything, or offend anyone. "Last Train to Clarksville" was a war protest song, about a guy going into the army, wanting to see his girl one more time, but the song never mentioned the war.

And you can't simply slag off the Spice Girls because they are a copy of something else. Or for the fact that they don't play or write. That would mean that any song writen and played by someone is automatically good.
Besides, Spice up your Life is a great song to jump up and down to with your mates.

And people here wonder why the arse is falling out of the Irish language. It's compulsory in schools until you leave, except for those born outside the country. Yet I smell a Problem: the language has no use even in most parts of the country that are still supposed to speak it a lot (the Gaeltacht areas).
Baloo and Gravie are of Irish descent - I know this because their surname (Dunehew) is yet another fecked-up variant of my name (Donohue), which in turn is a rape of the Kerry original (O'Donoghue).
I just put it in Liam (IRISH NAME!) to highlight how unique I am. And if no-one gives a toss, neither will. That's how democracy works.

There's a lot of Donohues here in America, and I suspect that one branch or other changed the spelling to distance themselves from "those TRAITORS" during the Civil war. I'm not positive which side the Dunehews wanted to distance themselves from, but my Great Grandfather fought for the Indiana Volunteers, so I suppose he sided with the Union. Oddly, of my three other (southern) GGFs, only one fought for the south.

It might explain how there are so many variants of Irish names in Mericay

---> Donohue (DUN-oh-who) vs. Dunehew (DUN-eh-hew)(I imagine) vs. Donohoe vs. MacDonncha(mine in Gaelic) vs. Donoghue vs. O'{nearly all of the above) vs. Donju(a little known Mexican variant, & Mexico's last Spanish ruler's last name).
My own name got the way it is today because, well, even my Auld Lad doesn't know that one, but there aren't many of us - the only other Donohue's we personally know are our cousins.
Surely a good sign.
