You say yes, I say no, you say stop, and I say go, go, go
Oh no - you say goodbye, and I say hello
Hello, hello - I don’t know why you say goodbye I say hello
Hello, hello - I don’t know why you say goodbye I say hello
--HELLO GOODBYE, Paul Mccartney

And she said, how can I help you to say goodbye
It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cry
Come let me hold you, and I will try
How can I help you to say goodbye
--How Can I Help you Say Goodbye, By Patty Loveless

"People have approached me about putting them in a book and offered more money than it's worth. I grew up around people who talked that way, and I try to use colorful language. Some of them I make up and some I've heard before."

-- Outgoing CBS anchorman DAN RATHER on his folksy "Ratherism," quoted in the Austin American-Statesman.

"Isn't Dan Rather being kept ON as a reporter ..... ?"

That's what they say...

Some talented FReeper needs to adapt this for Rather ;)
