OK, unfortunately, you've caught me in a not-so-awesome mood tonight and therefore since I am going to do every LS and I don't know this one I will viciously attack everything about it. And what pisses me off the most is that there's a crapload of points available and I'm not gonna get any of them...no I'm stuck with my 3 or maybe 5 if I'm lucky and I'm supposed to be happy with that. Well I'm NOT happy with that. And dammit I'm not gonna be. So consider yourself warned and consider this set of answers at an extremely large middle finger pointed directly at your face.

Too Much Time On My Hands – Styx
This was a most excellent game provided to me by Mr. Haley, and one I had to include once it was presented to me. Who knew that there were even enough sonsg out there to have every hour represented?
JJC Points:
Melo got 3 JJC points for the Larry Craig/Liberace answer on Ice Cream Man! The loudest laugh I had in the game until I got to you-know-who....
Plasticene got a JJC point for at least trying to match up the times, even if he managed to miss all 12 of them.
ghost got a JJC point for referring to Lynyrd Skynyrd as "Some Stud Muffin 80's band"....
Kroxquo got a JJC point for pointing out that he had his one correct answer in order...
TBone, as usual, got a JJC point for being funny...
KT got a JJC point for answering "Elton John again" on teh first Elton song rather than the second...
And last but certainly least, clem, despite the wishes of the game meister who he has forever insulted by thinking that he could possibly do as bad a job of constructing an LS game as I can, still managed to get the supermax of 5 JJC points for once again making me laugh by trying to act all angry and outraged and condescending towards me. I put the +5 down before i even saw the Point Whore, so that had nothing to do with it. Clem, you may want to send her up New england way to personally apologize to Mr. Haley for your outright desecration of his fine game....
Note: Please check and verify that your points are correct. This game was a bitch to grade, especially since I was personally unfamiliar with 4 of these songs and the lyrics got shuffled up on me since they were to be put in order (Also, I did not take off points if you didn't put the lyrics in correct order, I was mainly worried you got the correct time on each one.....)
