you billied my musical

 

[Tonga Bob]

I've asked for a change of thread title to the 4 elements so ignore the discaded theme.

What like oxygen, carbon and such and such?

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Just a bit of preempting on my part.

Whenever I win my next round, I'll dedicate it to my year of birth.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

What like oxygen, carbon and such and such?

Earth, wind, fire and water.

If you can link your examples (or others) to my theme, sure.

Purple7x08_24 I don't mind musicals, but that one had far too much talking, and not much singing...

Yeah this is true

 

[Purple7x08_24]

Purple7x08_24 I don't mind musicals, but that one had far too much talking, and not much singing...

fair enough. I discovered it and I found the talking interesting. I havent seen a musical before. Only a few plays at the theatre.

I Wanted to go for something different.

 

[Dinsdale]

New easy theme?

My mood

Your mood is "WTF is the theme?"

 

[spudmaster]

4 Elements. Earth, wind, fire, water.

To be fair, he did very little

 

[spudmaster]

To be fair, he did very little

Let's see Captain Planet appear without him, shall we?

 

[Chipmunk]

Let's see Captain Planet appear without him, shall we?

You sound like the Power Rangers who every episode was useless as individuals but only nailed it when they joined up and became the big Power Ranger
