Welk is oft rumored to have been a miserly and unpleasant man to work for who treated his employees poorly to viciously depending on the rumors. He had a reputation as a tyrant and a bully.
Pat Boone has a reputation as womanizer/philanderer. True or not, he's a right wing Bush Apologist and racist/sexist pig which he eloquently provides proof of himself here: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=59774 --- On Tue, 6/10/08, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [scifinoir2] OT: Overheard on the Radio To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, June 10, 2008, 1:49 PM What??

The gang was discussing whether or not they should play R. Kelley songs if he's convicted of child pornography and whatever else he's charged with. They then went on to discuss others whose music they do play, including Bobby Brown (drugs, speeding, child support, all seen as "minor"), James Brown (spousal abuse, discharge of firearm, fleeing police), Rick James (imprisonment, abuse of that lady he burned with a cig), Michael Jackson (not convicted, but guilty in many minds). Interesting conversation, and not, for once, something you can put only on Black people. The likes of Hank Williams, JR., Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and the modern so-called "bad boys" have histories replete with drug abuse, theft/embezzlement, violence, etc. Hmm, maybe Jay is right: if we didn't play music by criminals or nuts, we'd probably be left with Pat Boone and Lawrence Welk tunes!
