One of my favorites, _ I call anyone doing something that I think is silly, a Goober.

The other person I know who says it is from Utah, I believe and has lived in Texas.

TITLE: Goober Peas
Lyrics and Chords
Sitting by the roadside on a summer's day
Chatting with my mess-mates passing time away
Lying in the shadows underneath the trees
Goodness how delicious eating goober peas
/ C - F C / - - Dm D7G / C - F C / - F CG7 C /
{Refrain}
Peas, peas, peas, peas, eating goober peas
Goodness how delicious eating goober peas
/ C F G7 C / - F CG7 C /
When a horse-man passes, the soldiers have a rule
To cry out their loudest, "Mister, here's your mule!"
But another custom, enchanting-er than these
Is wearing out your grinders, eating goober peas
{Refrain}
Just before the battle, the General hears a row
He says "The Yanks are coming, I hear their rifles now"
He looks down the roadway and what d'you think he sees
The Georgia Militia eating goober peas
{Refrain}
I think my song has lasted almost long enough
The subject's interesting but the rhymes are mighty rough
I wish this war was over so free from rags and fleas
We'd kiss our wives and sweethearts, and gobble goober peas
{Refrain}

Low Frequency or LF refers to Radio Frequencies (RF) in the range of 30 kHz–300 kHz. In Europe, and parts of Northern Africa and of Asia, part of the LF spectrum is used for AM broadcast service. In the western hemisphere, its main use is for aircraft beacon, navigation (LORAN), information, and weather systems. Time signal stations MSF, DCF77, JJY and WWVB are found in this band. Also known as the kilometer band or kilometer wave as the wavelengths range from ten to one kilometers.

I've had that feeling at time, thefirst.
There's a thread around here somewhere called something like, "I feel like I have the Land to myself." People used to post in it when they were the only one on the active user list.

Maybe you can hunt for it. It was in this forum somewhere. But I don't have time to look for it right now.
