I apologize, this is sort of off topic again but Amanda reminded me of something.
I used to check the Little House books out constantly at my elementary school library. Then when I was in third grade, my furry little brain realized there was a tv show based on the books. Problem is, I could never keep it straight that "Laura" was played by a little girl named "Melissa". I would look at the book, it said written by Laura Ingalls Wilder - watch the show, the little girl's name was Laura Ingalls. I drove my poor mom crazy - she just couldn't make me understand that the girl on the show didn't write the books!

I love biographies -- people's lives are always interesting to me, especially people like Melissa Gilbert because I've watched her on tv my whole life.

Oh yeah, I remember now -- Andy and Albert were played by Andy and Patrick La---
b--teoux. (Don't have a clue how to spell their last name, won't even try, LOL)

Aahh, the night is calling, and it whispers to me softly,
"Come and play". Aahh, I am falling, and if I let myself go
I'm the only one to blame.

I'm safe, up high, nothing can touch me, but why do I feel
this party's over?
No pain, inside, you're like perfection, but how do I feel
this good sober?"
