J, I hate to expose my age, but you are confusing two songs.

E's words are a riff on a Beatles riff from the song "I Am The Walrus".

Your rejoinder is from the Beatles song "Lady Madonna".

If it was not your intention to finish the verse, I apologize and you can just refer to me as that old Fool On The Hill.

This better not start anything.

I am he as you are he as you are me
And we are all together
See how they run like pigs from a gun
See how they fly, I'm crying

Ha....Gotcha...All in fun of course

Actually we were both right....God were Old

You know this thread will now turn into a Beatles mania blog, right.

At the risk of seeming pedantic, allow me to note that "See how they run" is a lyric in both Lady Madonna and I am the Walrus.

Or maybe I'm just that old.

Yes, it may be disheartening to see the adults here read her the riot act about her posts (calling JROTC cadets "whiney little posers" http://www.serviceacademyforums.com/showthread.php?p=217927#post217927 tends to get that kind of reaction), but this is probably one of the better sites to have your daughter go rogue on than others where it is not as tightly moderated (my post about getting the moderators involved was serious). By and large, anyone who gets personal too many times will be temporarily banned and if repeated, permanently banned.

I can think of a lot of other places where if she used your account, the results would be much less favorable. Especially where she can spend money... :eek:

That being said, I'm glad you have taken her to task over her inappropriate use of your credentials. Hopefully she is learning a valuable lesson.

Send me a postcard, drop me a line stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say, yours sincerely wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form, mine forever more
Will you still need me, will you still feed me when I'm sixty-four?

except Paul will be turning 70 this year... :rolleyes:
 
Your are correct sirs. I forgot that line.

I knew this would get out of hand.

BTW, you aren't old until your kid says, "Hey Dad, did you know Paul McCartney was in another band before he formed Wings?" :biggrin:
