...featured a schlock tune, but it's good (and pertinent) schlock.
I'mAh, yes. My 67th turn around the sun will be completed in less than a month's time, but 100? That's only a pipe dream. Each breath comes harder than the last and I'll consider it a gift from The Deity At Hand if I see 70, all things considered. Still and even: there are nice thoughts in this tune. I'm not immune to schlock, as long as it's good schlock.thirty threefifty three for a moment
Still the man, but you see I'm of age
A kid on the way
A family on my mind (That was oh-so-true at 53, in my particular case)

Half time goes by
Suddenly you're wise
Another blink of an eye
Sixty seven is gone
The sun is getting high
We're moving on
Instapundit says today is Blogger Appreciation Day. So, dear blogger, consider yourself appreciated. This is in spite of your categorization of Croce as schlock. Imagine how much more we'd appreciate you if you could just overcome this one weakness.

ReplyDeleteThe mind boggles, Inno... truly it DOES. But not in the ways you might have intended.
You may not be a young pup, but you still got a lot of good years - make the most of them.
ReplyDelete"Making the most of them" prolly consists of waking up successfully each morning... and "a lot" is pretty relative. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm with Bag on this. Hang in there and keep on truckin'. Just say you're gonna make it till the Cubs win the World Series again. If you can live till then, you'll be pretty dang close to immortal.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't worry at ALL if I thought I was gonna live until the Cubbies win a Series. Actually, I'm not all that worried, anyhoo... I've lived longer than I thought I would. ;-)
