at a certain point you start becoming immune to cuteness. I:t even becomes mildly annoying.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

I don't know about Crackpot, but I am no longer able to communicate with @W.

I had to drop her like a hot potato because she believed I was stalking her and she told me so in no uncertain terms.

It was fun while it lasted but then she suddenly became very serious and it was time for me to move on.

But that's okay, I'm a rolling stone and wherever I lay my hat is my home. Some other woman will eventually let me put my sleeping bag rolled up and stashed behind her couch.

Then one day she will find I'm gone because tomorrow may rain and I'll follow the sun

@W won't even grasp the reality of the situation by the time I get to Phoenix

I hope she understands

That I was born a ramblin' man...

Forget the tape/video/whatever. You were there and it's etched into your memory forever; you can replay it whenever and wherever you want this way.

As a fellow sufferer, it seems to me that one tends to forget where the hell one put the recording of a Significant Event long before one forgets about the Event itself...
People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.

Don't feel bad about it Joe...

I know that some people call you Maurice...

Because you speak of the pompitous of love...

Sometimes I can't stop myself from responding to @w's comments.

Maybe it's because I'm a picker, a grinner, a lover & a sinner....

But I mean no harm nor put fault

On anyone who lives in a vault

It's alright... It's life and life only...

Mildly is putting it mildly.

The people who make Thomas the tank engine had to know what they'd be treating parents to when they named a character "Percy"

I had to put pants on today because my son refused to put his on till I put some on myself. Sort of disturbing when you realize just how much they idolize you

Or maybe the kid was tired of seeing his father running around the house with no pants on, and this protest of his was the only thing he could think of to get you to finally put your trousers on.... :P

Do you ever really get a vacation from being a parent?

Of course he could. So could Hatch, so could Tati and Jimmy Jnr.

But we all do our best, and hope. You'll be apples mate.
