I promised myself that that I would not be 'guilty' of the same. Thankfully, I can also say 'OK'!!!
mcthumber, major thanx for your post! |

Things are moving so quickly I feel like I'm really losing touch,
Seeing you reminds me of days when nothing really mattered very much...
If you leave me, can I come too? -- Mental as Anything (Australian band)
Meaningful....
Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder
where the years have gone
They have all passed under
sleep's dark and silent gate

You've Gotta Lotta Nerve To Say You Are My Friend
When I Was Down You Just Stood There Grinnin'
You've Gotta Lotta Nerve To Say You Have A Helping Hand To Lend
You Just Want To Be On The Side That's Winnin'
You See Me On The Street, You Always Act Surprised
Ya Say "how Are You?", "good Luck", But Ya Dont Mean It
When You Know As Well As Me You'd Rather See Me Paralized
Why Dont You Just Come Out Once And Scream It...
...I Wish That For Just One Time You Could Stand Inside My Shoes
And Just For That One Moment I Could Be You
Yes, I Wish That For Just One Time You Could Stand Inside My Shoes
You'd Know What A Drag It Is To See You!
Didn't wanna post the Whole damn song... Just the Highlights. :rolleyes: |

All we want to do is eat your brains
We’re not unreasonable, I mean, no one’s going to eat your eyes.
Jonathan Coulton RE: Your Brains
Stayed with me:
Into a dancer you have grown
From a seed somebody else has sown.
Go on ahead and sow some seeds of your own.
And somewhere between the time you arrive,
and the time you go
may lie a reason you were alive,
but you’ll never know.
