    I agree.
    You, Daniel and I might be 'old', but we're not a one of us 'stupid'. Let's enjoy the time we have left together ;)

    You know George, I remember a long, long time ago. After Sam Stepro, you were the second person at AOA to make me feel at home. You sent me case badges, all the way to Thailand. That small deed will always be in my heart.:D

    Unfortunately it's difficult for me to remain on the "good foot." Major, major thanks to Daniel ~ and to your august self for help in pulling away from the abyss!!

    Garshk, flash from the past. I enjoyed sending our AOA stickers around the world, glad that you liked them too!
    It's coming back to me... one of our Members braved a SARS epidemic to grab them in China. Above and beyond or what?

    At Big Sur in 1969:

    And this original of Helplessly Hoping, still the best, IMO:


    I love the alliteration in the words, only Stills could have done that. Perhaps his greatest lyric:

    Helplessly hoping her harlequin hovers nearby
    Awaiting a word
    Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit he runs
    Wishing he could fly
    Only to trip at the sound of goodbye

    Wordlessly watching he waits by the window and wonders
    At the empty place inside
    Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams he worries
    Did he hear a good-bye?
    Or even hello?

    They are one person
    They are two alone
    They are three together
    They are for each other

    Stand by the stairway you'll see something certain to tell you
    Confusion has its cost
    Love isn't lying it's loose in a lady who lingers
    Saying she is lost
    And choking on hello

    They are one person
    They are two alone
    They are three together
    They are for each other

    I agree, the original of "Hopelessly Hoping" is the best. This song knocked me out, it is SO fantastic.
