Title: R'unorian Brandy Post by: StarfireJeM on 03 June 2002, 21:29:00 I remember reading a while back when Laivin wrote R'unorian Brandy that someone was reminded of Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy and I was just reading it today for the first time when I came across the exact passage that actually does sound similar... "Oh, don't give me none more of that Old Janx Spirit/No don't you give me none more of that Old Janx Spirit/For my head will fly, my tongue will lie, my eyes will fry and I may die/Won't you pour me one more of that sinful Old Janx Spirit" I don't think Laivin's ever read HGTTG before either, so that is such an odd coincidence that the overall mood of both ballads are so similar! But it's pretty kewl too.

We're counting down the days until October now.. when I go to England to see him. -JeM "I'm all in favor of keeping dangerous weapons out of the hands of fools.
