    ring my bell ... knock on wood ... they sound like some fun broads... I so abused myself in the 70s. And played my best soccer ..... had much fun with both.

    very interesting. Do they always show the opening bell on CNBC or something? Will video replays be available on mlsnet.com? Will Rob Stone call it?

    Yes they show it live. Often interview those who did the ringing. It happens at 9:30AM

    Bet Alecko gets a yellow card for handling the bell.

    "Knock on Wood" was Ami Stewart. Actually, it was an old Stax song first--maybe Sam and Dave.

    I think you are purposely missing the "disco" questions .... it's a good plan, no one should know about Disco enuff to name songs and artists ..... however, I live with one.

    Gittnbizzee says Knock on Wood was originally done by some '60s guy (search reveals Eddie Floyd 1967) but redone as a disco tune by Amii Stewart.

    Evelyn "Champagne" King did "Shame"

    Indeed.

    That time was the very definition of a 'target-rich environment'

    Damn Owen, you were 5 for 10 whole years? Heck, even 20/30-something women age faster than that. :) I started the 70s at 5, but I was 15 by the time they were over. I was into a bit of disco here and there (BeeGees come to mind mostly), but Southern Rock was where it was at down south in the mid/late 70s as far as getting some ass. That's kind of a fun thing to say ..... or type .... getting some ass :D
    Ah, the good old days ... my how times have changed. I think the Baltimore poets Laughing Colors put it best ....
    Whatever happened to sex, drugs and Rock-n-Roll? .... Now we just have AIDS, crack and techno ...

    Me, I have only aged physically since the age of 16 :)

    ...in related news, the NYSE opening bell ringing was disrupted today as Major League Soccer came to town. Apparently, while trying to ring the bell forward Landon Donovan was impeded by Alexi Lalas. Donovan immediately fell to the floor clutching his shins, while Lalas stood there looking innocent. Alecko Eskandarian then elbowed Lalas in the back of the head, earning him a quick exit by the NYPD. Donovan was able to sneak past Lalas after the elbow by Eskandarian and ring the bell...

    :D

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to revelation again.
