Date: Tue, 2 Sep 1997 21:22:51 GMT Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #114 (GOLQ114) Hi Oldies Fans, Welcome to my first GOLQ. I usually play these quizzes as a member of Really Rockin' In Boston, but the GOLQ gods have graciously allowed me this opportunity to be a guest quizmaster. This quiz has no intended theme, other than it does contain some of my favorite oldies. If you do not have the official GOLQ Rules (a posted copy of the rules should follow a posted copy of this quiz on most sites), then you may retrieve them via anonymous ftp from: bobcat.bbn.com:/pub/golq/FAQ/rules. There have been no changes to the general rules since the last quiz. If you want GOLQs and their Results/Answers sent directly to you via e-mail, just send a message to golq-request@world.std.com consisting only of the word "subscribe" in the body, not the subject, of the message. Have fun, and good luck to all. Rich Ardini -- Answers must be received by 5:00 PM EDT on Tuesday, September 23, 1997. Try to e-mail early since you can't be sure of how long it will take your message to arrive. E-mail (DO NOT POST) answers to: REA01803@msn.com (last 5 characters of ID are numbers).
