    OMG speedy, you've outdone yourself indeed. I would tell you to get super high for manilow but I already know it's not your thing. Good luck.

    Why people do this to themselves? I will never figure out.

    Barry looks like an alien.

    I'd end up divorced if I tried to take the wife to see Barry Manilow (or is that Florence Henderson, hard to tell these days) for Valentine's or any other day.

    Hehehehe
    This weekend we rock Portland

    This picture is actually fairly good. She mostly looks like she's had her face lifted so many times she can barely see out.

    When I was a young, fledgling music journalist, my very first assignment was to review a Barry Manilow show.......my review was a bit sarcastic, and the paper received several letters to the editor pointing out my lack of musical taste......after that, I stuck to writing about punk and new wave!

    Speedy, you are a brave man. I salute you. I got my husband (picked it out yesterday) a chain saw. A gas one so you can yank that starter rope thing. V-roooom. He's gonna love it. (I'm hoping for a sushi dinner.)
  • josevolutionjosevolution Posts: 29,180

    Not having to worry about what to get anyone for Valentine's Day, the best gift to receive and give ;)
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    Ha ha ha - wouldn't it be fun to pick out a husband again? Not that I don't love my husband, it's just been a long, long time. I wonder if my husband had a choice b't a chain saw or seeing Barry Manilow...

    When I was eight or nine, I used to dance around the living room while playing his single of "Could It Be Magic".

    Our music beast looked something like this (with the goodies under the lid) -

    Man, those were some sweet times.
