Date: Thu, 10 Jun 2021 12:11:00 -0400 From: Edward Vlasov <middleear@gmail.com> Subject: Re: The internet remembers all, forgives nothing Re: [Words] The internet remembers all, forgives nothing September 10th what year? Which chat was that? At one time Barry had a series of chats on his own dot-com, that was sometime between 2002 and 2008.

I always assumed many people knew the answer, so I'd know it too just by asking anybody in the street. Well I've never been wrongerer.

I remember now how Joe Brennan had a chance to finally measure the Bee Gees, but they tricked him with a hat trick.

If you try to put the Bee Gees on a pie chart, you'll immediately see that size isn't everything, but everything is size.

Eddy

   


 Back when I edited the Bee Gees - Frequently Asked Questions on Usenet, one of the questions that was put to me was: "How Tall Are the Bee Gees?"

I would never have thought to ask such a thing, but there it was. And so it went into the FAQ.

I soon discovered that there was no actual answer to that question. I got a range suggested by various folks, helpful speculation based on photos from fans and all. But no answer.

I had an opportunity to ask Barry in a chat room. I remember the day was on September 10th. Because in the days and weeks after, I referred to it as "the tragic events of September 10th." Or "unfortunate events." Whatever. Either way, Barry booted me out
Which brings me to the present day.

I subscribe to Amazon Music, and an always looking for interesting stuff there. And in searching to see what Robin Gibb albums were online, I found the following (YouTube link for convenience):

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mWGas4I3CGGX2sConihvzol5y7qoHfde4

An album by somebody named Daghoti.

The album title: HOW TALL IS ROBIN GIBB?

Not complaining, not really.

I just somehow feel personally responsible.

I have enough trouble remembering what year it is now!! But I seem to recall it was 2005. And in Barry's defense, when it comes to online chats, I seem to be somewhat annoying in how I phrase things. As if I'm rehearsing a punch line to their reply or something. In any case, Barry apologized to me the next time he was on chat. So I can't really be mad at the guy. Of course I forgive him. And eventually we both gave up on participating in regular online chats for awhile. Meanwhile... A practical question: I assume there are no Walgreens drug stores in Germany. They have Aldi stores, but they aren't drug stores. Just I have a verse that ends, "...out in front a Walgreens or a mall." Or it could be "...out in front of an Aldi or a mall." Still undecided. In the liner notes, apparently Robin Gibb was hanging out in front of a drug store in Cologne, Germany. Oh well. I'll think of something... .
