Lyrics Quiz
Someone started something similar to this on the Nexus Book Club, and I thought it might be kind of fun to start something similar here.
See if you can guess which song these lyrics are from. No Internet searches. You have to search your mind for the answer.
You must guess the title and the artist correctly to win.
The first person that gets it right then gets to post the next lyrics line for everyone else to guess. If you are 100% certain you got it right, you do not need to wait for the original poster to say so. Go ahead and post your next challenge if you are positive you got it.
Keep it clean, and keep it reasonably accessible, nothing too off-the-beaten-path. But don’t make it too easy either. Example: Rainy days and Mondays always get me down, is way too easy.
Also, if any challenge is posted that remains unanswered – that turns out to be too difficult and remains unanswered for a long time, that turn will be forfeited and I will start the next quiz.
Also, every time you start a new challenge, be sure to reply only to the original post, and not to a previous comment. This will allow for more responses directly under each challenge.
So here’s the first lyrics challenge:
“Well I woke up this morning and I got myself a beer.”
Any clue?

It it fair to ask if it is a country song??
I didn't really specify that in the rules. I guess so. -

JM, I believe it has played for me in the past. It could do with TD's setup or something. I surf at work -- and get away with it -- but videos and audio streaming (like NPR) is blocked from 8 - 5.

After reading this, and since I'd never heard of Trish(a) Yearwood, I played a couple Youtube videos to figure out who she was and what she did, and one of them had these lines. Can I give the answer ir is it considered cheating?

Hmm, not sure. Instructions say not to "google" it, which means not to go looking it up, but since no one else seems to be able to guess it, I'm gonna say that it is fine this time. Just don't make a habit of it, Frenchie. :) -

I didn't actually. I was just curious about that Trisha Yearwood, and the first song I played was -
The Song Remembers When
(although I admit I picked this one first because it seemed to fit Jean Marie's lines)
Jean Marie: sorry, not really my own cup of tea. -

Signing Atheists
I was going to set up a group for Deaf Atheists, but figured I'd probably be alone in here if I did that so I figured I'd open it to anyone who knows sign language or even interested in learning it.
Loren Miller replied to Eric's discussion Vatican halted trial for man accused by deaf boys in the group Signing Atheists"I don't know if this is the trial you're referring to, and unfortunately, your link no longer refers to an active page, but back in February of 2013, HBO aired a brilliant if disturbing piece: Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of God,…"
Dennis Michael Pennington commented on blue pashmina's blog post Not believing in an afterlife does not mean i am a "sad' person."Living forever is not what it's cracked up to be. I'm not sad, but I do get tired more often. Imagine how sad and tired you would be after a few hundred years of singing praises and hosannas with God. Maybe it wouldn't even take that…"

Dennis Michael Pennington commented on Wyatt's blog post Theists, Cargo Cults, and Logic"I agree with Two Cult Survivor. The theist already knows that he is correct, and he has the evidence, the Holy Bible - the "word of God." The theist puts it on YOU to show evidence that God is non-existent and he walks around talking to…"
