I apologize to my friends scattered across the globe not familiar with the name of a very popular pop-rock song in the USA from the year 1979 with this title. In the chorus there is a suggestive line, supposedly written, by a girl, on the wall of a men's toilet stall, that reads, "for a good time......call 867-5309." :D :D :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thank you, Tom, for this education. Perhaps I should have entered it in Google before asking, and displaying my cultural ignorance :roll:

May the good times continue.

I hear the song as I look at it. You've struck a responsive chord.
