Maybe It's something in the air there in Ohio that makes people funny or witty. I should move there. I'm tired of my analytical self.
Maybe if I had a brain to go around the block with it would be a different story.

Sky, it's just the sheer boredom that causes us to find other outlets.

But seriously, Ohio has some great places, like any state. Cincy and Columbus are wonderful cities. We have beautiful countryside, from lakes to rolling hills. Where I am, not so much. :p It's kind of flat and dull and conservative with a lot of sheep. Not the bleating kind.

S'okay. When I win big I'm living in Maine in the summers, then I'll yacht down to the keys for the winters.

my favorite

Dont get me wrong
If Im looking kind of dazzled
I see neon lights
Whenever you walk by

Dont get me wrong
If you say hello and I take a ride
Upon a sea where the mystic moon
Is playing havoc with the tide
Dont get me wrong

Dont get me wrong
If Im acting so distracted
Im thinking about the fireworks

That go off when you smile

Dont get me wrong
If I split like light refracted
Im only off to wander
Across a moonlit mile

Once in awhile
Two people meet
Seemingly for no reason
They just pass on the street
Suddenly thunder, showers everywhere
Who can explain the thunder and rain
But theres something in the air

Dont get me wrong
If I come and go like fashion
I might be great tomorrow
But hopeless yesterday

Dont get me wrong
If I fall in the mode of passion
It might be unbelievable
But lets not say so long
It might just be fantastic
Dont get me wrong


(excuse the threadjackage)

ok whatever. I can post lyrics too.

Entre Nous


I think it's time for us to recognize
The differences we sometimes fear to show
Just between us
I think it's time for us to realize
The spaces in between
Leave room for you and I to grow

We are strangers to each other
Full of sliding panels
An illusion show
Acting well rehearsed routines
Or playing from the heart?
It's hard for one to know

My son would have that answer but he's sleeping right now.
{edit}
I googled it....

Dean Bobby Peterson claims that he used to be the bass player for The Pretenders.

Dunno. Homer's dad played Sax? Written by Kenny G?

You're right, of course. I didn't realize you had answered, because edits don't bump threads...
