Songs to make you cry
In the Living Years. Every generation Blames the one before And all of their frustrations Come beating on your door I know that I'm a prisoner To all my Father held so dear I know that I'm a hostage To all his hopes and fears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Crumpled bits of paper Filled with imperfect thought Stilted conversations I'm afraid that's all we've got You say you just don't see it He says it's perfect sense You just can't get agreement In this present tense We all talk a different language Talking in defence Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear It's too late when we die To admit we don't see eye to eye So we open up a quarrel Between the present and the past We only sacrifice the future It's the bitterness that lasts So Don't yield to the fortunes You sometimes see as fate It may have a new perspective On a different day And if you don't give up, and don't give in You may just be O.K. Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear It's too late when we die To admit we don't see eye to eye I wasn't there that morning When my Father passed away I didn't get to tell him All the things I had to say I think I caught his spirit Later that same year I'm sure I heard his echo In my baby's new born tears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear It's too late when we die To admit we don't see eye to eye

I saw Hall and Oats do a 20 minute rendition of Sarah Smile in concert in Milwaukee when they opned for ELO. Every women in the stadium was crying by the end. I went and bought beer twice before they ended. Every guy in line was saying, yeah my date started crying so I bailed out to get some food.

Zach I was trying to remember the title. Another great hit from the 70s. I suggested Brandy because the song is so bad it makes me cry. I believe it was once picked as the worse hit of all time. Another great tear jerker, Mandy by Barely Manalow I can't listen to it anymore without hearing Steve Dahl's Oh Wally lyrics.

BREAKING NEWS! (joke)
Because Frank has always been a team first kind of player. Are we out of green ink around here? Frank Thomas said, "If this is what the team needs to improve, I'm all for it." Because Frank has always been a team first kind of player. Now doesn't that look better?

It really is true that money, fame, power, and all the trappings can't assure happiness.

Man survives trip over Niagra
Amazing. Of all the ways to apparently try to commit suicide (apparently) that is probably last on most people's list. I wonder what the rest of his story is.

Songs to make you cry
Way back when, I was a dj in a box and did a few weddings. Someone asked me to play Lady in Red and I didn't give it a second glance. About half way through I see the mother-of-the-bride spitting fire and heading my way. (This will tell you how long ago this was) she yanked the record (vinyl) off the Technics 1200 turntable and flung it. Screaming that that was not an appropriate wedding song. I grabbed Celebration! and dropped that on as fast as possible

Ever since the NHL All-Star game at the old Stadium, during Gulf War 1, the Star Spangle banner chokes me up. I guess at that moment I became old and sentimental. Also in no particular order: In my Life Brandy Billy Don't be a Hero The Night Chicago Died

The Official Bulls prediction thread
40-42 late injuries keep them out of the playoffs. Give me ping pong balls not 1st round defeats.

This Chandler things worry me
If I had to make a prediction, I see a mid 40 win season and making the playoffs but not doing much. I'd rather finish the season with a couple ping pong balls and load up then get bounced the first round of the play offs. Does anyone remember the grand old days before the lottery? Man what a fix that was. Every team wouild try and keep a straight face when they announce they are going to let the kids see what they can do. In other words start tanking we're looking for X player in the draft.

I love to see the newlt arrived Texans order Chicken Fried Steak and then be surprised there's beef in there. Now if I can figure out where the chicken has been hiding all those fingers . . .

This Chandler things worry me
I was right there with you. I tuned in expecting to see a text book example of how to use green. I'm not worried about this Bulls season. It's a filler between championship runs. I'm hoping for another high draft pick, maybe even a lottery pick.

You have two moderators for this forum who I presume have lives. The lesson here is moderators need to be here more often. If someone makes a libelous accusation it can't sit there for hours or days. How can you promise a tighter watch from just two people? Do you want this as the forum to report crimes and turn in criminals? And I'll state again, it's unfair to critize adult-youth exchanges if the youth aren't identified. I was only aware of one kid that posted here, not I'm finding out we have a lot of 14 and 15 year olds. I guess I can't tell and underaged :fyou from an adult :fyou Which brings me to another point. Perhaps to set the tone we could get rid of :fyou :finger :dips*** Sorry, I'll shut up. And once again and sincerely, thanks everyone who makes this site tick. If I didn't care I would just delete the bookmark and go . . .

Self Serving Thread Warning ~ Sorry
I hate these types of posts but I wanted to thank the few people who emailed me today. Your words were very kind. The reason I'm very sensitive to the type of attack that occured this weekend is because my favorite community service is as a Boy Scout leader. As you can probably guess, an attack like what CW went through would end that for me. Having a wife, kids, sterling reputation, and zero evidence would still be tossed away. It would break my heart beyond belief to lose that. I've made too many promises to boys who've had too many adults break promises to them. I'm worried as I write this that someone will twist this into something wrong. How sad is that? I'm afraid to admit I volunteer to work with teenage boys and they mean a lot to me. While the board was imploding, I was blissfully unaware on a campout on a peaceful lake. I've tried to always be respectful of everyone here and perhaps that's why I never was in their sites to be flamed. Viewing the vile attacks that went back and forth without anyone moderating was very disturbing. If the moderators won't pull those posts there is nothing they will pull. No matter who you are or how civilized you've been, they will not step in and that makes me sad. Perhaps I'm looking for more structure or at the minimum, people who understand the responsibilities of free speech. I was surprised to learn that several posters where underage here. Since we seem to be sensitive to communications between adults and youth, it seems like a smart idea to somehow identify who the youth are. I was a homesick Sox fan when I found this board, and now I'm a homesick soxtalk fan. If I won a big surf competition and hired Van Halen to play the party, I'd invite a lot of you on this board to the party. I hope it was van halen or that joke bombed
