<br />
Our Soul lost (dammit) in like the last 10 seconds of the game <i>*angry sigh*</i> and I can't quite figure out all the rules, but we had a blast. We ran into some other Jovi Girls in the parking lot, and had a good time catching up, eating and drinking together, and engaging in Porn Libs.<br />
<br />
What are 'Porn Libs'? you ask?<br />
<br />
You know "<a href="http://www.madlibs.com/">Mad Libs</a>"? Well, when you get a bunch of fan fic writers together they turn into Porn Libs. One of the ones we wound up with had a song entitled "Fuck around the Clock".<br />
<br />
Of course, I had to re-write the Bill Haley classic. Apologies in advance.<br />
<blockquote>One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock, fuck<br />
Five, six, seven o'clock, eight o'clock, fuck<br />
Nine, ten, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, fuck<br />
We're gonna fuck around the clock tonight. <br />
<br />
Put your cock ring on and join me, hon, <br />
We'll have some fun when the clock strikes one, <br />
We're gonna fuck around the clock tonight, <br />
We're gonna fuck, fuck, fuck, 'til broad daylight. <br />
We're gonna fuck, gonna fuck, around the clock tonight. <br />
<br />
When the clock strikes two, three and four, <br />
You will eat me out, you dirty whore, <br />
We're gonna fuck around the clock tonight, <br />
We're gonna fuck, fuck, fuck, 'til broad daylight. <br />
We're gonna fuck, gonna fuck, around the clock tonight. <br />
<br />
When the chimes ring five, six and seven, <br />
I may let you cum and to go heaven. <br />
We're gonna fuck around the clock tonight, <br />
We're gonna fuck, fuck, fuck, 'til broad daylight. <br />
We're gonna fuck, gonna fuck, around the clock tonight. <br />
<br />
When it's eight, nine, ten, eleven too, <br />
I'll be kneeling down and blowing you. <br />
We're gonna fuck around the clock tonight, <br />
We're gonna fuck, fuck, fuck, 'til broad daylight. <br />
We're gonna fuck, gonna fuck, around the clock tonight. <br />
<br />
When the clock strikes twelve, we'll cool off then, <br />
Start a fuckin' round the clock again. <br />
We're gonna fuck around the clock tonight, <br />
We're gonna fuck, fuck, fuck, 'til broad daylight. <br />
We're gonna fuck, gonna fuck, around the clock tonight. </blockquote>As Porn Camp weekend comes to a close <i>*sniff*</i> we're Skyping with Kiwi, getting ready for Porn Camp Crafts, and writing a short biscuit about Jon and Angry Birds.<br />
<br />
Oh, and there's wine.<br />
<br />
Always wine. <br />

Follow us on Twitter if you want to join in the fun. Slightly obnoxious, wholly juvenile and totally giggle worthy. We do have TONS of fun when we get within the same air space.<br />
<br />
I wish we could get ALL the girls together, but we definitely take what we can get.<br />

I just left Penn Station in En-Why-See and FINALLY got my seat to myself so I could get the old LT out -- can't write porn with an audience. <br />
<br />
Well, unless it's MAH GIRLS!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.twitter.com/joviswillow">Wils</a>, I'm on the way, and will call your darling daughter when I arrive in Philly. Then I will smother you with hugs (dear ones, not queer ones) when I see you, and shower love on your puppy and bunny (that is NOT dirty, people).<br />
<br />
I have have this date circled in purple marker on my calendar for WEEKS! I've been SO looking forward to getting away for a few days with the Northeast Chapter of the JPM.<br />
<br />
And while I won't have any of the wine (ewww) I will have a 'rita or two (or orange juice, lol) and wait most <strike>im</strike>patiently for <a href="http://www.twitter.com/cattesambora">Catte</a>, <a href="http://www.twitter.com/queenie_steph">Queenie</a> and <a href="http://www.twitter.com/TaraLeigh">TaraLeigh</a> to arrive.<br />
<br />
Then, well, nobody's safe.<br />
<br />
Well crap, it took way longer to type this paltry post than I thought -- we're now entering beautiful, scenic downtown Newark New Jersey. I love a train crew with a sense of humor.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">You see, I am in the process of moving to Brooklyn to be closer to my new job and, at the moment, I have been commuting 5 hours a day to and from home. It's taking the life outta me and making for a seriously cranky <a href="http://www.twitter.com/joviswillow">Wils</a>. So, when I say that I will be there too, it's because I will be home, in my house, which is in all sorts of disarray... but I will be there with 4 of the most awesome women I know.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We will finally crack open the $50 of <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"><em style="font-style: normal;">Carmenère</em></span> that I got as a birthday gift from a very good friend.

<br />
<b><span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Hath: Unbreakable -- Bon Jovi</span></b><br />
<br />
I thought hard about this one. I could have gone with "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPyq4iqt6Go">You Are The Sunshine of my Life</a>", for my son, who truly is. I could have waffled between "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gb_u_W5Mt4E">Hit The Road Jack</a>" and "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyGO5NRhzvk">Be My Baby</a>" for Mr. Hath, depending on the day. I could have gone with "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9ZMDPf9hZw">Wind Beneath My Wings</a>" for my parents, who taught me to do more with less, and to always do it with love.<br />
<br />
But no, I went with this song, dedicated to all my girlfriends. <br />
<br />
Collectively, we have survived feasts and famines. Our houses have blown up, our marriages dissolved, our livelihoods taken away, our countries literally shaken to their very foundations, and our families hit with unspeakable tragedies, yet still we are here.<br />
<br />
We have lived through all this and come out the other side because we are strong. <br />
<br />
"<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUBnxqEVKlk">I Am Woman</a>" first came to mind as an anthem of sisterhood to dedicate to my girls, but largely, we have survived and surpassed these things on our own. Yes, we have had the support of our own sisters (in numbers too great to ignore), but WE chose to bend, not break. WE chose to pick up, dust off, and move on. WE chose to celebrate what we have, not what we lost. WE are Unbreakable.<br />
<br />
I love you, girls!<br />

<b><span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Wils: That's What Friends Are For - Dionne Warwick and Friends</span></b><br />
<br />
Hath, as usual you hit this one on the head. Where would I be without my girlfriends? From wine in parking lots to late night talks to concerts to lunch dates (over the phone) and so much more, you girls have no idea how much you mean to me. You've guided me through the darkest times, lifting me up and encouraging me and been there to celebrate in good times as well. We may not see each other everyday, but everyday you are in my thoughts and there are simply not enough words or days in my life to tell you all how much I love you.<br />

<div style="color: #990000;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Queenie: I'll Be There For You - The Rembrants</b></span></div><br />
This was a hard one. Wils picked my first choice and I used my second choice way back on Day 5. So, I went with the theme from <i>Friends</i> (arguably the BEST sitcom only able to be seen in re-runs and on DVD), not the Bon Jovi version (not that I don't love their version, but this one fit the category much better). A much happier, bouncier I'll Be There for you and the lyrics really say it all...<br />
<br />
For my girlfriends, old and new, I'll be there for you and I know you'll be there for me too...<br />

Well, Hath said it better than I ever could. What a lovely post darlin'!<br />
This is the song that I listen to when I need a little push. I think it fits all of us. And honestly, just looking at what all of us have had to deal with at one time or another...it suits ALL the women in my life. And since Jovi has brought be some of the most amazing women in my life, it's only right they get to be the last song on this challenge. Sometimes we bend and almost break. But in the end we are always the ones standing.<br />

Sorry, I had to pick two.<br />
<br />
Delta Dawn is the first song I remember knowing all the words to. I loved it when this song came on the (AM) radio in the kitchen or in the powder-blue Dodge Dart.<br />

When I was a (very) little girl, around 3-4, we lived in Japan. I was very young and some of my very first memories are from this time. I remember than every Sunday we listened to a radio show on Armed Forces Radio, the host was Rabbi Ira Youdovin and he started the show every week with this song. I understand he lives in the Chicago area now and wouldn't know me, but he has a place in my very earliest memories.<br />

The Hawaii show was played quite a bit in my house. From movies to concerts and all the things in between, Elvis dominated in my house. <br />

</b></span><br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Hath: Cat's in the Cradle -- Harry Chapin</span></b><br />
<br />
I've said "I'm too busy" when my son wants to play. I've said "later, we'll do it later" when he asks to watch a movie snuggled up with me. I've said "Not right now" when he's asked me to read to him. I hate that I can't devote every moment to him. I'm worried that he's going to remember "Mama was too busy to play when I was a kid." Make time for your kids/loved ones. <br />

<br />
<b><span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Wils: Baby Girl - Sugarland</span></b><br />
<br />
I don't really do guilt, so this is a hard one for me. This is my song with my daughter (and also Brown Eyed Girl) and, while I believe I've always TRIED to do my best with her, I'm sure there are times when I've not told her I love her enough. But the fact is, I love her "more than anything in the world".<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Y75lVEv7Tqw" title="YouTube video player" width="425"></iframe><br />
<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><b>Catte: Nada</b></span><br />
I got nothin' for this one. I don't listen to music to feel guilty, and I honestly can't remember EVER feeling guilty listening to any music or lyrics. I know there have been a number of social issue songs out there <i>(Man in the Mirror, Land of Confusion, Luka, American Skin (41 Shots), Bullet ),</i> but they just don't make me feel <i>guilty.</i> They may make me <i>think</i>, but not feel guilty. <br />
<br />
Then you have all the "supergroup" singles to raise awareness of global tragedy or natural disaster. This trend started back in 1984 with Sir Bob Geldof when he formed BandAid, the British/Irish SuperGroup-for-a-Day to record <i>Do They Know It's Christmas? </i>for charitable relief for famine-stricken Ethiopia. Being all of 16 I remember thinking "what a cool idea" and "oh, those poor Ethiopians" for about a second, then being very VERY excited to hear Simon LeBon sing right after Bono and before Sting. Then of course the U.S. had to jump on the Band-Wagon (pun intended) and do USA for Africa. Then came the concerts - Live Aid, Farm Aid, Live Earth, et al. <br />
<br />
The trend continues to this day, only now it seems that big-shot Rock Stars can't really be bothered to all get together and write an original song every time there is an earth-shaking catastrophe (and granted, there have been a LOT lately). So they instead donate their songs to these All-Star Albums For (Insert city/country/region here). Now don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking these efforts in any way, shape, or form. Any way celebrities can use their spotlight to help those in need, I'm fine with. Even if it's convincing us to use a couple of our iTunes gift cards to download some music so a few dollars will go to the Red Cross. But I just have a hard time feeling guilty when I'm listening to that music. Fortunate, sure. Grateful for what I have, absolutely. But I just can't muster guilt.<br />
<br />
So I guess I'll just go with the GrandDaddy of them all, the song that really brought a fleeting moment of social awareness to kids my age when I was a 1980's teeny-bopper. Maybe I should feel guilty for not feeling guilty.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><b>Tara: Angel - Sarah McLachlan </b></span><br />
I used to love this song beyond explanation. This was the song that I would long for at a Sarah show. Then the ASPCA took it and ruined it forever. LOL I can withstand pretty much anything on tv, except an animal in distress. HOLY CRAP, these commercials make me want to hand over my bank account to animals in need. <br />
So, that's about as guilty as I get. <br />

When I was in high school, the marching band marched "military style" which means that everything was done in "squads" and therefore if one person was absent the whole show was thrown off. Consiquently, there had to be people who could step into any spot and march in any persons spot holding (playing) any intrument. My senior year I gave up my drummers position to be an "alternate". This was one of the songs we did that year and since I did it will at least 7-8 different instruments, I say "technically" this is a song I can play on any instrument... LOL.<br />

<br />
Our wedding was a mix of songs from the 50's - 80's (Jovi inclued), and was really fun. I don't think I would have changed any of the music to be honest with you. Mr. Hath and I danced our first dance to "Be My Baby" (Ronnettes) and Daddy and I danced to "If I Can Dream" (Elvis) because it's his favorite song.<br />

When I got married (Almost 21 years ago) there was no <i>Bed of Roses</i>, <i>Always</i> or <i>Thank You for Loving Me</i>. Mr. Q and I danced to <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0sxMMsDgtM"><i>Just You and I</i></a> (Eddie Rabbitt & Crystal Gayle). I think if this song had been around back then, it would have been perfect.<br />

<b><span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Hath: Flight of the Bumblebee -- Rimsky-Korskakov</span></b><br />
<br />
When I'm sad, I wanna be snapped out of it; I don't wanna dwell on it.<br />
<br />
For me, "Flight of the Bumblebee" does it. This song reminds me of watching "Bee Movie" with my son. After seeing the film, whenever he saw a bee trapped in the house or flying around too close to us outside, we couldn't swat at it because it was "just a pollen jock, Mama. he's just doing his job." Makes me smile every time. Can't be sad when thinking about my Hathlet. He's just too freaking adorable (yeah, I'm biased a bit). That, and he'll (randomly, for no reason) start trotting around the house/yard singing, "BUZZ buzz buzz buzz BUZZ buzz buzz buzz" lol Yep, wicked hard to stay sad with your lil guy making bee noises.<br />

<br />
Here's one of those "things" not many people know about me... I love to listen to Contemporary Jewish Music (CJM). It's been a part of my life since my teen years and it touches me in a place that I don't access all that often. This past summer I had the fortune to meet and hear Josh Nelson and his music is amazing, original and uplifting. The drums and rhythm of this particular song has the ability to pull me out of a sad mood in a very unique way. This is not your parents "religious music".<br />
<br />
No video, but I encourage you to listen here: http://joshnelsonproject.com/<br />

<b><span style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Tara: Kiss Me When I'm Down</span></span></b><br />
Oh...I like to embrace my sad sometimes.<br />
And one man that can really rip my guts out is Gary Allan.<br />
Just...man.<br />
He knows how to rip your heart out with a lyric. The man himself has experienced a lot of loss and this song reminds me so much of a particular point in my life that I did a lot of stupid things with an ex. Sometimes you just want that warm body even tho you know it's bad for you.<br />

This song is so raw and emotional it always soothes me when I'm down. It doesn't matter why I'm sad.. it just somehow seems to understand. And though the vocals are fantastic, it's more Richie's mournful guitar that speaks to me.<br />

I have seen alot of Broadway shows, I love live theatre as much as I love live music. This is close to the top of my top 5 all time favorites.

It's a close, close contest, but Keep the Faith is my favorite album EVER. It's the one that has it all for me: rockin' songs, dancin' songs, love songs, jammin' songs. No matter my mood, I can put KTF on and find what I need. And this is my favorite track -- in fact, I love it so much I named my DOG after it. Yep, her AKC registered name is "RockStar Little Bit O'Soul" aka "Jovi." She's a rockin' PuppyDog, LOL.<br />

Let's face it, we just never get to hear our favorite sexy axe-man's solo work on the radio, and that is just a crime. There are so many songs I could have chosen here, but I picked this one because I find that when it comes on the Jovipod, I always turn it up and sing!<br />

<br />
Fortunately, with the iPod, I can listen to practically anything I want to, any time I want to. The music is out there -- you just have to find it. Plus, when I listen to the radio, it's typically satelilte, and the 80's station or classic rock or Hair Nation. HN does play Richie once in a while -- I guess I'd have to go with this song because it's just one of my personal favorites of his, and would LOVE to hear it on the radio. For some reason, when a station plays a song I love, I feel almost instant loyalty to the DJ/station, and feel overJOYED that they played something "for meeeeee!" lol. Yeah... my choice is Stranger (with or without Sleep Alone, though I love that song when he does it, too).<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
*sigh* I'm going to use a Jovi tune. Sad, I know...lol<br />
But when HAND came out there was one song that I coudln't stop playing. It often made me wonder if it should have been a radio hit. Maybe it would have been if given half the chance. A lot of the public thinks there's only two KINDS of Jovi songs. Boombastic rockers or ballads. They don't know about these gems that are always my faves.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span">I listen to HairNation on Sirius almost every day, and almost every day I hear this song, sometimes a twice or three times. Good thing I like Cinderella.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span">I love this song, but it's not what people think it's about. But if it means hearing Springsteen on the radio more, that is ok by me.</span><br />

Every morning at 5:45 my this song comes across my radio waves. I think the station I listen to has a standard playlist for that hour of the morning or something... I can't seem to escape it and to be honest, I'm getting a little tired of it.<br />

<b><span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Hath: Forget You -- Cee Lo Green</span></b><br />
<br />
My son listens to a local radio station when we're in the car. Otherwise, I've got the iPod going. I gave up on commercial radio years ago. This song actually has an "original" version, in which the chorus is "fuck you" not "forget you". Needless to say, this radio station plays the "clean" version lol It's on ALL THE TIME. Not only that, if you're <strike>stupid</strike> unfortunate enough to take your kid to kid karaoke night, you will hear this a minimum of 37 times.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span">Sorry Boys, but it's just NOT Alright anymore. I really did like this song once upon a time. Honest, I did. But you've killed it for me. Permanent "skip" in the iPod rotation and time for me to reload camera batteries/check Tweets during concerts. *sigh*</span><br />

Dammit Catte you took mine, but I'm using it anyway. Way overplayed on the radio and in concert. Catte's right, it's not Alright anymore...<br />

Who Says is a good one Catte & Q -- I think I have to go with that, though I don't hate it, I'm just REALLY tired of it. I can't think of a song that I used to like but don't anymore. My musical tastes haven't really changed that much -- if I like something I like it. Maybe I'll think on it some more, but I dont' think I'll come up with anything :)<br />

<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Hath: I'm a Bitch -- Meredith Brooks</span></b><br />
<br />
<blockquote>I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother <br />
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint, I do not feel ashamed <br />
I'm your health, I'm your dream <br />
I'm nothing in between <br />
You know you wouldn't want it any other way...<br />
<br />
I'm a bitch, I'm a tease, I'm a goddess on my knees <br />
when you hurt, when you suffer, I'm your angel undercover <br />
I've been numbed, I'm revived <br />
can't say I'm not alive <br />
You know I wouldn't want it any other way </blockquote><br />

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Catte: Bitch - Meredith Brooks</span></b><br />

<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Wils: I Wanna Talk About Me - Toby Keith</span></b><br />
<br />
Ok, first of all I have to say that this was my SECOND choice, but when I logged into Blogger to post "Bitch" by Meredith Brooks and saw that both Hath and Cate had chosen it, I laughed, chatted with Cate about it (who said "Well if the BITCH fits... LMAO!" - SO TRUE) I decided I also like Toby and I'm just narcissistic enough to admit that it really is ME!!<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/HxUuDPNbkJk" title="YouTube video player" width="640"></iframe><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #990000;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Queenie: She's Not Just a Pretty Face - Shania Twain</b></span></div><br />
So, after a lot of thought this is the song I chose. I was going to use I'm a Bitch, but Catte and Hath beat me to it (and it only fits me one week out of the month... LOL).<br />
<br />
As women and mothers, we wear a lot of hats so I figure this song fits not just me, but all of us. <br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #351c75;">Tara: Little Victories - Matt Nathanson</span><br />
</b></span><br />
I think this is the post I hemmed and hawwed about the most. Most of the songs I love are about relationships. It took awhile, but I think this really suits me.<br />

I've been to hell and back in the last six months twice but now I'm finally in a position that I feel like I'm finding my way again, what's important, where I want to go in my life, and I just want to get out there and well drive.... ;) </div><div style="color: black; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">FYI Tara my FAV Matt N song.</div><div style="color: black; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Hath: Flashback - Ministry</span></b><br />
<br />
Somehow, this surprises people. I apparently don't seem like a "shit down his neck" kinda girl. This is TOTALLY a driving song. I listened to this driving home from NYC after the Central Park Jovi show -- I was up most of the night with mah girls (and a busted out knee) then had to get up early drive 4.5 hours home so I could make a Bingo obligation at 10. This song made the miles FLY by. I'll admit it, The Land of Rape and Honey is up there in my list of records I'd take with me to Mars. (no power on a desert island; I assume the folks on Mars can power my mp3 player).<br />

Yeah, yeah, this one could go under the "Guilty Pleasure" heading too. Hey, I'm not ashamed to admit I LIKE the Spice Girls! They Kick Ass! And at least one of them did okay for herself post-shameless-PopStar-era, LOL<br />

It's all my daughter's fault, but there is something about Lady G that I really like. Maybe it's that she's the Madonna of 2011.<br />

Cate stole my guilty pleasure. I'll admit...Nelson is one of mine too. LOL (Not like I could deny it, she already threw me under the bus.) So, I'll have to go with Eminem. Talk about a change of pace! I don't love what he stands for, the stupid shit that comes out of his mouth, or his less than stellar relations with women...but I love this song.<br />

Yep, I love the man and I blame my mother. I love Elvis too and that is also her fault. What can I say, she introduced me to some good stuff and it stuck with me. She does not, however, get my love affair with Bon Jovi. But I forgive her. She is my mother after all.<br />

<b><span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Hath: Touch of Grey - The Grateful Dead</span></b><br />

Yep, hate The Dead. Sorry. Can't really explain why. The music is just "eh" and the lyrical content was clearly influenced by illegal substances (lol). I just never got it. <br />
