Came here to post this but you beat me to it. This was really well done.

Joined in late 2011 (but lurked unregistered for quite a bit before that). Lots of big things since then, including... - Changed jobs a couple of times - All 3 kids survived their teenage years (one of them just barely). Oldest served 4 years in the USMC and is now happily married and recently gave me my first grandchild. Second son married, youngest (daughter) successfully "adulting" two years after college - lost one dog, but gained another - survived a heart thing I'm not a huge poster on this site...vast majority of the ~700 posts have been in one of the fun Off The Wall topics (like this one), but TBD is a multiple times a day destination for me. Of course, what hasn't changed is my love (and sometimes hate, but mostly love) for the Bills, and a couple of years ago FINALLY made it to a game in Buffalo for the first time since 1974.

The ink is black, the page is white, Together we learn to read and write. To read and write. And now a child can understand This is the law of all the land; All the land!

Wake up, little Susie, wake up Wake up, little Susie, wake up We've both been sound asleep Wake up little Susie and weep The movie's over, it's four o'clock And we're in trouble deep

Once I had a love and it was a gas Soon turned out had a heart of glass Seemed like the real thing, only to find Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

Not sure if these are strictly speaking "femme fatale", but Body Double and Dressed to Kill were both very...effective.

All your eyes have ever seen All you've ever heard Is etched upon my memory I spoken through my words All that I take with me Is all you've left behind We're sharing one eternity Living in two minds Linked by an endless thread Impossible to break

I think I'm gonna be sad I think it's today, yeah The girl that's driving me mad Is going away She's got a ticket to ride She's got a ticket to ride She's got a ticket to ride And she don't care

Run to light from shadow Sun gives me no rest Promise offered in the east Broken in the west Chase the sun around the world I want to look at life In the available light

Tell me what you think about your friends at the top. Who'd you think besides yourself's the pick of the crop? Buddha, was he where it's at? Is he where you are? Could Mohammed move a mountain, or was that just PR? Did you mean to die like that? Was that a mistake, or Did you know your messy death would be a record breaker?

Gordon Lightfoot - Daylight Katy

You better shape up, 'cause I need a man And my heart is set on you (and my heart is set on you) You better shape up, you better understand To my heart I must be true (nothing left, nothing left for me to do)

As the waves crash in On the western shore The wind blows fierce from the east The wave tops torn into flying spindrift, spindrift As the waves crash in On the western shore It makes me feel uneasy The spray that's torn away Is an image of the way I feel

If you could read my mind, love What a tale my thoughts could tell Just like an old time movie 'Bout a ghost from a wishing well In a castle dark or a fortress strong With chains upon my feet You know that ghost is me And I will never be set free As long as I am a ghost, you can't see (RIP Gordon Lightfoot)

In your eyes, the light, the heat In your eyes, I am complete In your eyes, I see the doorway In your eyes, to a thousand churches In your eyes, the resolution In your eyes, of all the fruitless searches In your eyes In your eyes, oh, I see the light and the heat

There is no pain, you are receding A distant ship smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying

One, oh one, The only way is one I feel angry I feel helpless Want to change the world I feel violent I feel alone Don't try and change my mind

We are secrets to each other Each one's life a novel No-one else has read Even joined in bonds of love We're linked to one another By such slender threads

A feeling (woo-hoo) That tonight's gonna be a good night That tonight's gonna be a good night That tonight's gonna be a good, good night Tonight's the night, let's live it up I got my money, let's spend it up (a fee-) Go out and smash it, like, "Oh my God" Jump out that sofa, let's kick it, off (a fee-)

I'm sure there have been many (but not in the last 8+ years). Most significant by far was the first Super Bowl vs. the Cowboys. Had to travel to Germany for work. I flew overnight on the Saturday night, but jet lag absolutely CRUSHED me late in the day Sunday, so I had the joy of waking up Monday morning to the news that the Bills got trounced. To this day, I have never watched that game.

Two things about this: 1. From just the Youtube thumbnail pic with no other words, would never have guessed this was a pic of John Mellencamp 2. He is a pretty funny dude

That I'd been crying over you Crying over you Then you said, "So long" Left me standing all alone Alone and crying Crying Crying Crying It's hard to understand But the touch of your hand Can start me crying

People keep talkin' about me baby Say I'm doin' you wrong Well don't you worry, don't worry, no don't worry mama 'Cause I'm right here at home You're the cutest thing I ever did see I really love your peaches Wanna shake your tree Lovey dovey, lovey dovey, lovey dovey all the time Come on baby now, I'll show you a good time
