Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "Who cares if I ever get lonesome, ... " ?

Answer: Cause I treasure my own company

Mac Davis big hit called "It's hard to be humble" about an egotistical man. "Some people say I'm egotistical, well I don't even know what that means, I guess it has something to do with the way I fill out my skintight bluejeans."
http://www.metrolyrics.com/lyrics/91891/Mac_Davis/It's_Hard_To_Be_Humble/

2. "It's me again, Margaret, Hello is this Margaret, I know it's you, are you ... "

Answer: naked

Ray Stevens, and "It's me again, Margaret", song about a guy harassing a woman over the phone. At the end he is finally arrested and is given the right to one more call. "'It's me again, Margaret...
(Evil laughter)
They got me, Margaret
You ain't going to miss me, Margaret, I know that
But I'll miss you
(More evil laughter)
And when I get out, Margaret
I'm going to come over there with an egg beater
And a live chicken, and some peach preserves!
We'll have a good old time, Margaret!"
http://www.cowboylyrics.com/forum/messages/771.htm
Which leads me to a question, if someone is arrested for making obscene phone calls, Does he have the right to one more?

3. "We thought it was kind of handy, Take a trip and ... "

Answer: never leave the farm

From Jim Stafford's "Wildwood Weed", about two brothers who stumble on a marijuana patch. They get nailed by local authorities.
"Then they dug and they burned,
And they burned and they dug,
And they killed all our cute little weeds.
Then they drove away,
We just smiled and waved ...
Sittin' there on that sack of seeds!"
http://www.lyricsxp.com/lyrics/w/wildwood_weed_jim_stafford.html
