....even as a small boy driving his blue Corvair to Manilow Elementary school, Bob was mystified by all sorts of music trivia....Bob spent many hours in Mrs Browns classroom searching for the "Lost Chord"....that special bit of music trivia that would stump even the best competitors.......a music major in college, and nearly 40 years old, Bob was nearly driven to alcoholism searching for the "Lost Chord"... ...finally, Bob won a trivia contest at a local radio station....the grand prize was free airfare on C&S(Crash and Skid) Airlines to Tazmania and a week of paid expenses to search for the "Lost Chord"...Bob was excited to say the least.... ...Bob rented a car in Tazmania and kept in touch with the POA by wireless laptop....all the while hoping Tangled, and other members of the trivia gang wouldn't find the "Lost Chord" before his return....

...Bob ditched the car, picked up a guide and started the long trek to the badlands of Tazmania......searching for a clue to the whereabouts of the "Lost Chord" ps....Bob is the one driving.... ...Bob finally traveled by bicycle and found Casey Kasem in the jungles of Tazmania.....Casey was unsure about the location of the "Lost Chord", but he did take Bobs special song request.... ps....left to right...Casey, Bob... ....Bob was determined to leave no stone unturned in his "Search for the Lost Chord"........ ...Bob finally ran into the "Three Oracles" of Tazmania, and they steered him to the "Keeper of Knowledge" ...the "Keeper of Knowledge" told Bob where the "Lost Chord" was located.....

...Bob enters a clearing and there right in front of his eyes is the center of all music knowledge.....the "Tomb of the Lost Chord" ...Bob enters the tomb and hears all of the music ever written, ever played, coming from this one 78 rpm record.... ...Bob soon enters the "Hall of Knowledge" and there, seated, is a familiar face.....it is "tangled up in BLUE"...it seems Tangled is the source of all music trivia and Bob is just a small pawn.... ...finally, after much begging and pleading(and the promise of a Hard Rock Tazmania t-shirt)tangled hands the key of knowledge to Bob, and Bob takes the last step in the "Search for the Lost Chord".....he will hear all the music of all the ages at all times, and never again be puzzled by a trivia question on the POA board ....

Having just returned a few hours ago from Tanzania, it turns out, Bob DID find the Lost Chord and it was in Tanzania the whole time... Bob also learned to dance to the lost chord while in Tanzania with some local musicologists.

I'm the fat one... We got into a group discussion on various Prowler mods and they said they liked the hard top the best!
When I told them my Prowler was ORANGE, they really got excited!!!

Tangled, there is a fine line between genius and lunacy. ( I think you have finally crossed it, lol). Excellent journalism.
