Ahh yeah the Fall Guy was cool as well. Can't really judge on the Lee Majors thing, but Heather Locklear sure were purty...

I don't mind country music but I am not really that familiar with it.. maybe one day that bug will bite me too .. I do like Dolly Parton if that counts for anything..

Lately, I've been under a lot of pressure at work, and things have been a little strained at home too. Perhaps I'm trying to justify the unjustifiable.

I'm ashamed to admit that recently I've started to listen to country. No-one is more surprised than me. I started out doing a little Shania Twain. I thought I could handle it, keep it quiet. Just my little thing. No-one need know.

They said that she's a gateway artiste, and in my arrogance I scoffed at that, but I have found myself starting to dabble in LeAnn Rimes. I'm worried that I'm on a slippery slope.

Please, please can someone recommend a place to get some professional help? I'm very scared and I wish that I had never embarked on this trip. I think people are starting to suspect. My health is suffering and I'm not sleeping.

Has anyone else been through this? Is there hope?
This is a real tragedy but a relatively common ailment. I understand that there are a number of colonies established around the country, although mainly in Southern states I think, where people with your problem can go and live with persons of a similar ilk. Nashville is a popular and large commune of country-afflicted people who would no doubt be able to help you. Otherwise you could always put on the dungarees, throw the shotgun in the back of the pickup, stick a piece of hay between whats left of your teeth and enjoy the trip.

Play some Clash or Stone Roses or even PJ Harvey. Bound to bring you to your senses. If all else fails, listen to some Take That.

OMG!!! You did not just say 'Take That'!!! I'm one of the few Americans that have their CD. I keep hearing the lyric about 'lipstick on your coffee cup' in my head right now.

lol @ Take That

Imagine how embarrasing it is to own a "Five" CD. Or did they spell it "5ive"

I love country and western music some of the finest songs written are country songs. Ray Charles, Aerosmith, Shitney Houston have all done C&W
