Re: [AMC-list] The boxer



That would be correct, I find it somewhat comical that those lines were all he could come up with!!! 

Love the "who is Paul Simon"? Simon and Garfunkel. If you listen to the lyrics their songs tend to be kind of depressing for the most part. But still good music IMHO 

Let's see if I found out what was causing Comcast to trash my formatting?

I'm showing my age here... 

I'm guessing that's a reference to the 1968 song "The Boxer" by Paul Simon, 
as in Simon and Garfunkel (please don't ask who that is! :^) 

Partial lyrics: 

When I left my home and my family, I was no more than a boy 
In the company of strangers..... 
In the quiet of the railway station, runnin' scared 
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters, where the ragged people go 
Looking for the places only they would know 

(Li la li... li la la la li la li) 
(Li la li... li la la la li la li) 
(La la la la li...) 

Seeking only workman's wages, I come looking for a job, but I get no 
offers..... 
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue 
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome 
I took some comfort there (li la la, la, la la) 

Dan

Paul Simon was a boxer ? or better yet, Who is Paul Simon ? 

The Secretary of Education in my state was told recently that Florida was 
ranked 48th in educational proficiency. He then asked "Out of how many ?"
