Luda's "move" is indeed dangerous…

"I'm doin' a hundred on the highway
So if you do the speed limit, get the F&$% outta my way"

I got my one and only speeding ticket driving to the Who –”Baba O’Riley.”

Nothing from the last twenty years made it onto the list? "Flirtin' With Disaster" came out in 1979, not 2001.

Try "Jesus Built My Hotrod."

Some say speed kills, but slow and depressing wins the race every time. Case in point: Harry Chapin's "Cat's in the Cradle". Allow me to explain myself at http://riproarious.com/

No Kiss? No Motley Crue? No Overkill?
