BL> It's the name of an album by Elvis Costello, I think; referring
 BL> to Frank Sinatra's moviemaking debut with the help of the
 BL> Mafia. It was immortalised in The Godfather, when the Mafia Don
 BL> told his goons to "Make him offer he can't refuse," so they put
 BL> his horse's head in bed with him.

 KR> bullshit, "frankie goes to hollywood" was the name of a bunch
 KR> of pommy queers who formed a band named after holly johnson
 KR> (the leader). their big hit "relax go to it" was a joke on the
 KR> music industry coz it was all about buggery, but got played on
 KR> all the kid's shows. you may not like queers, but you gotta
 KR> admit they've got a sense of humour.

  I still like my story better than yours. It makes more sense and
it's got a better ending. The only part I believe is that Pommies are
poofters ;-)

 KR> you may not like queers, but you gotta admit they've got a
 KR> sense of humour.

  I admit nozzing. As a group, poofters are without humour. They use
bitchiness instead, at which they excel. It's like saying that
poofters are artistic because they flap their hands, dress up in their
mother's clothes, anmd make obscene gestures with their tongues.

Bob
