I wear boxer-briefs.  All the support of a good brief with the style of a boxer without the old man look.  I read an article on these things...boxers wear a rebellion of young men against their father's briefs, and so the boxer-brief is a rebellion against the boxer.  Plus, you can't wear shorts with boxers, in my opinion...it forms "the tunnel".  You men reading this know what I'm talking about.  It's like when a woman can walk up to another woman she doesn't know and just say the words "tube top" and they instantly have something to talk about.

Meanwhile, I'm concerned about our good friends Peter & Dennis, aka chestersdads.  They've disappeared from Xanga, so if anyone who chances to read this knows the story please let me & Cristie know.

Ok, so many of the posts I've read lately are dealing with lost loves, broken hearts, unrequited love and a general lack of love all around.  It wasn't very long ago I was going through this myself.  Just read last year's posts for a refresher course.  It's a hard thing to deal with, quite possibly the hardest experience in a person's life.  I'm relieved that, for now, those days are behind me.  I hope they are behind me for good now that I've found Jason, but no one, not even me with all my vast psychic ability with the tarot cards, can say EXACTLY what the future holds (and that, dear Cristie, is what proves I've the gift...the ability to admit that I'm not ALL-KNOWING, but on the quest for enlightenment...that, and the turban).  Anyway, what this is leading up to is my thoughts on this expressed in song, dedicated to ALL of you to whom all this may apply.

Lyrics

(Burning...)
A huge fire was burning
And her eyes grew strangely bright
She turned around in her room...
What could she take and still survive the fire?
But then again, there was a window
You know it's an illusion...
There is no fire burning...just a soul crying

So cry for me...take a little time...and then stop
It's just something that you cannot see...so stop!
She swings around on the second story...
"I'll get down," she says
Well there is no fire burning...just a soul crying

I will...you know
So I take it to the limit
I will...you know...as I always have
I understand your position...
I withdraw my decision
Well I've got no more information for you

So still there is a fire...that no one sees
She doesn't even see it either...
Or so everyone thinks...
But then again, there was a window
You know it's an illusion...
There is no fire burning...just a soul crying

There's no fire
There is no fire
Well there's no fire burning...just a soul crying...
(It's just a soul...crying...)

Lyrics:I can read your mind and I know your story
I see what you're going through, yeah
It's an uphill climb and I'm feeling sorry
But I know it will come to you, yeah
Don't surrender
'Cause you can win
In this thing called love

When you want it the most there's no easy way out
When you're ready to go and your heart's left in doubt
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is

When you question me
For a simple answer
I don't know what to say, no
But it's plain to see, if you stick together
You're gonna find the way, yeah
So don't surrender
'Cause you can win
In this thing called love

When you want it the most there's no easy way out
When you're ready to go and your heart's left in doubt
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is

That's the way it is

When life is empty
With no tomorrow
And loneliness starts to call
Baby don't worry, forget your sorrow
'Cause love's gonna conquer it all
All...

When you want it the most there's no easy way out
When you're ready to go and your heart's left in doubt
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is

Ooh

Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is

That's the way it is

Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is
