Have you ever heard the song "The Winner", by Bobby Bare? It was actually written by Shel Silverstein... anyway, your post made me think of that song. :)

I'll take it some where else.

LOL!

I thought you would have been glad to see that I yielded the field. Can't have disagreements if one party (me) refuses to get sucked in to the debate.

And for that... I got lectured! Yesh! You'd think you were my mother. LOL!

Bobby Bare is a country singer, the live version of the song he did is a lot of fun... anyway, it's about a guy who tries to pick a barfight with a well-known "winner"... the last two stanzas are:

Now, you remind me a lot of my younger days with your knuckles clenchin' white.
But, boy, I'm gonna sit right here and sip this beer all night.
And if there's somethin' you gotta prove by winnin' some silly fight,
Well, OK, I quit, I lose, son, you're the winner."

So I stumbled from that barroom not so tall and not so proud,
And behind me I could hear the hoots of laughter from the crowd.
But my eyes still see and my nose still works and my teeth are still in my mouth.
And y'know...I guess that makes me...a winner.

Honey... you don't want to be my mother. I came out of the wound looking for an argument! LOL!

BTW... how old do you think I am? You could be my mother... you don't want to be... but you could.

I know you are in college, so I would guess you are in the 18-21 range... I have only been out of high school for 17 years... out of college for 12, so I don't think I could be your mother, but close. Very close! - I am only 35 :~D

Got one of her brother?

From the little video clip posted yesterday, I think I may like him more than I originally anticipated...though Faramir's still the one I'm really looking forward to seeing in action...
