Sorry to disappoint!

[subliculous]

no, it's just...usually i get stuck with fannish women talking about their cats. guys don't last more than about a week on my flist.

I let carless_sam handle the cat talk in these parts. It's all just words on a screen to me, not much bothers me, outside of Twitter updates on the friend page.

Mother's Day

What a great post... equally heart-warming and hysterical - the legacy of music (one I'm proud to have passed on to my own kids) is powerful indeed!

Here are a few more quotes for you:

"Making the decision to have a child - it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking outside your body." ~ Elizabeth Stone

"Mothers are not the nameless, faceless stereotypes who appear once a year on a greeting card with their virtues set to prose, but women who have been dealt a hand for life and play each card one at a time the best way they know how. No mother is all good or all bad, all laughing or all serious, all loving or all angry. Ambivalence rushes through their veins." ~ Erma Bombeck

"The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness." ~ Honoré de Balzac

I almost used another Erma Bombeck quote - thanks for the kind words! I'm glad to see you've turned your children on to music, what a great gift to pass down. Enjoy your Mother's Day, mom!

Thanks again

Nice Mark Twain quote. Also, there is a good reggae version of "Mother & Child Reunion" by The Uniques

I wrote that, but I was in too much of a haste to sign in.

For some reason, I'd thought it was you. Here's that Elton John song I talked about:
Elton John: Mama Can't Buy You Love

I love those Lima and Rossi quotes (I think my mom might have read Cristina, she sure acts like it), I wish I was proficient in other languages so I can expand the quote section.

Thanks and call your mom!

one of the best things i learned in first-year philosophy:
never forget that you have been mother to everyone, and everyone has been mother to you
i don't remember who said that though...

Necessity is the mother of invention - maybe that was what Zappa was thinking.
