post challenge -- it did. woohooo.

the actual lyrics, but i'm telling you, find an online recording of it and tell my "mine" aren't correct.

Ha! Love the concept. I tend to prefer B&W shots to be higher contrast, but you made me grin, so that's a job well done.

Ohhhhhhhh, I can't wait to see the comments on this one. BRILLIANT! This is hardest I've laughed at a challenge...... well, possibly EVER. It's perfect to me, as I am one of many who misheard that lyric PRECISELY as you've quoted it here.

Many years ago, when someone first told me I was misquoting the lyric myself, my first thought was "What, does he say 'bag,' too?!" Oh, man -- good times.. Good times... :P
