My 700th Post!

[That Announcer]

I've come up to 700 posts in the extremely short time that I've been here. This fact begs the question: Do I need a life, or what?

This question practically demands the answer: "Do you want me to stop, or what?"

Of course, this reinforces the first question. Moving right along...

Ah, Mazel Tov!
I think I hit 400 sometime today. Or maybe it was yesterday. I don't know, I wasn't paying attention. I just looked in the corner and it said 402. Totally didn't expect it.
But I ramble.
Congratulations!
Congradulations!
Whichever!
Whatever!
I'm lost!
Oh, and no, we don't want you to stop. And I have no idea if you need a life. All I know is I'm addicted to this site.
Dang it, I'm rambling again...

I really do need a life, inasmuch as I have a closer relationship with my Series 8 Sam figure than I do with my father!

Go Play catch with you old man cause u will miss him when he is gone

Cat in the Cradle

My child arrived just the other day
He came to the world in the usual way
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay
He learned to walk while I was away
And he was talkin' 'fore I knew it, and as he grew
He'd say "I'm gonna be like you dad
You know I'm gonna be like you"

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin' home dad?
I don't know when, but we'll get together then son
You know we'll have a good time then

My son turned ten just the other day
He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad, come on let's play
Can you teach me to throw", I said "Not today
I got a lot to do", he said, "That's ok"
And he walked away but his smile never dimmed
And said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah
You know I'm gonna be like him"




And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin' home son?
I don't know when, but we'll get together then son
You know we'll have a good time then

Well, he came home from college just the other day
So much like a man I just had to say
"Son, I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while?"
He shook his head and said with a smile
"What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys
See you later, can I have them please?"

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin' home son?
I don't know when, but we'll get together then son
You know we'll have a good time then

I've long since retired, my son's moved away
I called him up just the other day
I said, "I'd like to see you if you don't mind"
He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I can find the time
You see my new job's a hassle and kids have the flu
But it's sure nice talking to you, Dad
It's been sure nice talking to you"

And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
He'd grown up just like me
My boy was just like me

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin' home son?
I don't know when, but we'll get together then son
You know we'll have a good time then

Kimp, sorry, but I really, really hate "Cat's In The Cradle." And I do all kinds of stuff with my father. However, just a while ago there he blew off me and my ma for some new girl. We KNOW he has a new girl. And as such, I lost most of my respect for him. So now I talk mostly about superficial things with him ("Seinfeld" springs to mind), and see him once per two weeks.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Good lord...

700 posts!!! That's awesome That Announcer! Gosh I've been here since December and I've only got 400 some. Oh well, it's not a competition.

I thaught about starting a thread for my 100 post, but I reached it without even realizing it. You guys really weren't lying; it does creep up on you!
All this landmarking is making me feel like I'm at Weight Watchers. I wonder if Philip will give me a keychain, or maybe a sticker, LOL.

Well folks, I'm just 200 posts away now from becoming a senior member. Maybe I should take a break from here....

Then again, maybe not. I'm a-staying!
