Help, I'm in quicksand!

Y'know it recently occurred to me that every time I enter DS I involuntarily regress a decade. As Acid Testers brilliant cover art appears I hear the words "Help, I'm in quicksand!" Sometimes they come to me in a thought or I mutter them under my breath. Late at night I find myself checking the speaker volume to avoid awkward looks from my wife. It amazes me how Kaols website still has an affect on me to this day. After high school I still lived with my parents and his site proved to be the bane of my existence as I could not live without a visit there once a day nor could i remember to turn the speakers off and 2am. There have been more than a few occasions where I thoughtlessly moused over to his quagmire and got the ever-loving hell scared out of me. Thanks again Kaol and everyone who helped give me a place to feel at home, lurk and have a good laugh.

Don't forget the happy little, what was it, polka music(?), that would play after the plea for help. I still hear it playing in my mind...Please make it stop!

It was a "midi" instrumental arrangement of a song called "Red Rubber Ball".

Here ya go, forum -- this is the original version of what old time quicksand fans knew only as "The Kaol Quicksand Song".

Now I've done it! Quicksanders all throughout Quicksand Fans are gonna be transported back in time! Memories and nostalgia!

And this song will be playing in your heads for DAYS!
