YES Exactly.It scares you because in that reality....Bono could never give you a proper hug. And that is a scary, scary thought.
That is terrifying.
I will never know what that is like.

I have to excuse my tomfoolery tonight. I spent 4 hours in dance recitals today. My nieces were dancing in two separate recitals. I've seen tap, modern jazz, ballet, Irish step....my brain is mush.
However, my daughter was transfixed. I think I know what we'll be doing in the fall. I might see if she likes Irish step since there are a ton of schools that teach it here in Boston. Towards the end, she was toast though. She started dancing off to the side and getting more attention than the girls on stage. She was fascinated by watching her shadow move and groove. And my girl has some moves. I have NO idea where she got them. She loves attention too. She's like my own little Bonoette.
]blaaahaaahhaaahahahaaa: If it's anything like last night... I think I do
got it!
I didn't mean to imply that you did, and I apologize if I came across that way! It's more young people who don't bother to find out the history, and then hear "Imagine" a couple of times, and think he can do no wrong. And quite possibly my dislike is a biased reaction to that.
I'm positive I read about the gun thing years ago. I just googled it, and all that comes up when you search his name and guns is Mark David Chapman articles. I think it was during the era of his famous "Lost Weekend," though, if that helps.
Yoko may well have changed him (although she was certainly part of that lost weekend...), but all I'm trying to say is that someone with that history probably shouldn't be looked at as the very definition of peace and love. That's all. The tendencies and behaviours were there. It just seems incredibly hypocritical to me. Big ideas (as Bono might say), but the behaviour doesn't back it up.

That's so cute! I tried to put Sarah into dance when she was that age, she totally wanted to go, but when she got there, she just wanted to stand on the sidelines. Thus ended her dancing career like three weeks later.

Then Larry has 3 arms and I can see why he'd be smitten....
We need to get Comet and Zu in here posting dueling captions. Bono and Edge can fight over Bono. Sorry Adam, you are NOT invited.
Thanks for the Bono O' C*** tag. Teehee.

See-- now as a woman who decided i never wanted children... but whom also knows the value of good parenting- blood relatives or not...i wince a bit at talking about how Paul is a good family man quietly.. and it sure seems he was/is....
that JL's activism was of little consequence... because of too pie in the sky etc...
it kind of makes me feel a bit of lesser consequence- since i have been a semi-activist for like 45 yrs (some years more than others) ...and i don't feel that that often in this context... (other contexts, yeah at times)
i hope i'm clea- hard to put into words...
My little guy's dance recital was last weekend. He had two numbers and was SOOOOO excited about the whole thing - getting into costume, going backstage (without mom and dad), hitting his mark, waiting in the wings. I'm def a proud mama seeing him love the whole backstage thing. He wants to keep dancing - he had a solo in this year's tap number but next year he wants a whole solo song all to himself
Someday!
She had everyone laughing and watching. She really has this weird ability to make people fall in love with her. All the parents at her daycare say that. And I'm not saying that because she's my kid. After all, she's my kid. I see her when she's being less than charming.
haha - I love that you mentally shag someone else. I think Larry understands that he's on a list with 4 others... (the 4 others vary and he's always at the top).
I'm going to eat the other arm since I've clearly eaten your left.....
What is with that photo?
Bono and Edge can fight over Bono? GR, your freudian slip is showing.
And for the tag? hmm... did I do that. oops

Oh, hush, you might!! :fingerscrossed:
Last tour seemed to suck big time for meetings compared to Vertigo, though. As awesome as the huge, spectacle tours are, I really hope the next one is a smaller arena one.
As a frustrated dance mother, I need to see video of your children!
Sarah did end up figure skating, so that made up for it. Sort of.
Tried to catch up on the thread a little. Thora your skirt story is I had a skirt that was special to me like that when I was in my 20's. It was white and had red and goldish starfish on it with random red and gold sequins sewed on them. (Not tons of sequins, just a few.) And it was one of those types that if you spun it would flare out into a complete circle. Sounds dorky I know but it was so cute and I wore it to death, like until it was a rag. I wonder if I have a pic somewhere.
Okay, I am shame-faced. I heard this on Fallon last night and it's a pretty catchy song. But this is just adorkable.

Have you ever heard anything bad about Paul McCartney's parenting? I haven't, and his older children seem to be quite close to him, from everything I've ever heard. That doesn't necessarily mean anything, though.
And as for John's personality vs. the people who started to do good work because of him, I don't think that diminishes those people or that work in any way. Hell, for that matter, regarding my opinion of John, not much will change that, but I'm one person on the internet, sitting in my living room on a Saturday night, spouting off. Doesn't mean my opinion is any more valid than yours, and I didn't mean to imply it is. It's just my opinion from things I've heard over the years, that's all.
I think it would be great because I love the theater too. I wanted to be lyricist when I was much younger. I still believe that had Bono and Edge come to me first, Spider-Man would be up for ALL THE TONYS this year.
Oh look, it's 1am and I've gone delusional....
I just had to share this with you guys, because I can't stop giggling about it.

"If guitars are phallic symbols, and keyboards are female, does that mean keytars are hermaphrodites?"
Pintsize (the little robot dude) was talking of becoming a drum machine for his owner's band. And I know on a politically correct level, it shouldn't be funny, but I find it hilarious in my allergy-suffering state of mind right now...
