Recent Song
A music video that plays on NTV (newfoundland television) is artisted by a female with a name like Sara Bareilles and the piano is like her Love Song (it starts out like that and continues on for the verses). The artist is relatively recent. I've seen it first about a month ago. What's this song?174.3.111.148 (talk) 00:40, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Football trivia
Football fan trivia Why do Redskin's fans wear pig snouts? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.207.69.13 (talk) 03:23, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I think their rabid fans are called the "Hawgs". ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 03:35, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
 * The Hogs (American football) should answer your question. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:37, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
 * That article has certainly been under the radar. It reads like it was lifted straight from a fanzine. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 04:01, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

 * I could. In any case, thanks for the link. :) ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 13:41, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Ugh, why does that article keeping using the "would" form of past tense? 99.166.95.142 (talk) 15:39, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Because the writer was writing about the events as viewed from a point further in the past than when they happened. ("In 1944 the Allies invaded Normandy and within a year Germany would surrender.  It began with the landing of three airborne and five seaborne divisions on D-Day, June 6."  Here "would surrender" is because we're talking about a 1945 event from a 1944 viewpoint.)  However, that's not normally a good style for this sort of article.  --Anonymous, 23:27 UTC, October 27, 2009.

Elliott Gould voice on an ambient track
In the late 1990's I got a tape from a friend with an ambient dance track that had a voice over by Elliot Gould. I'm trying to find the name of the track and the artist, any suggstions would be very helpful. Thank you. 82.39.104.235 (talk) 23:36, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
