    Love the story behind the story.

    Considering I was involved with the program for 20+ years (including that one time you helped me figure out something on that old matrix board program at CF), I have a plethora of useless knowledge.

    Oh wow.

    If you are who I think you are, I thought you had a bright future in IT.

    I hope you are doing well.

    TD is a big Sox fan. This is his fault.

    I'm not one for copycatting stuff. Playing that song at the same time the Sox play it is really kinda hokey.

    And, the song is about Caroline Kennedy, who was NINE when Diamond wrote the song. That's kinda creepy.

    Russo Park was going to whack the song two years ago, but someone offered to sponsor it so they kept it.

    I SOOOOOO want this to go away.

    It is pretty funny the power which one song sponsor has over the group . . . prime evidence that $$$$ talks and bietching walks . . .

    Nobody does the bop-bop-bop part better than WVU, it’s my favorite version.
