Get. the. HELL. out. of. here!!!! I always knew you were cool, MC, but this maybe makes you now the coolest of all time. I should get you to sign some stuff to sell on eBay, there are seriously Fanilows out there that would snap it up!!!

Go ahead and be jealous. Does this mean I win at life?

I AM jealous. And you were already winning at life, but now you RULE.

AOII Angel ... I am so having similar flashbacks now!

We had a rush (aka: mid 90's recruitment) skit of MTV with different music videos with words altered. Ours was something like:
"Rush, Rush Baby ... go XY maybe" for the chorus with other lyrics including "to the extreme we rock the campus at UNIVERSITY, light up your life, you know we are the best!"

YIKES!!!!!

MC where have you been? The only way to truly win at life is to have a guy buy you a "big-assed diamond ring." The one you bought for your wife does not count. In fact, she wins at life. You win vicariously through her.

I could always sell the signed LP (yes, children, LP) I got from Barry.

I stand before you, a humbly corrected, chastened and most-fortunate fellow . . . who once sang back-up for Barry Manilow.

Wow! That just reminded me of our chorus, "Greek Greek Baby!"

All I remember is, "Something grabs ahold of me tightly, Brothers and Sisters all around me nightly..." It was BAD! I don't know who had this idea, but I could have killed her.

I remember 2 sisters and I walking home from the bar, arms linked, and singing the whole song (we knew every word mind you) so we could make it home in the freezing cold in our miniskirts.
