At a Christmas party with some college friends. First time seeing them in years, and coincidentally the first time I've been drunk in over a year.

Well, if we're going to do some music, I'd like to add this. And after the bagpipes - just gives me chicken skin like you read about. Always has.

But in al seriousness I use to enjoy amazing grace, but I can no longer listen to it. A friend of mine was an LEO killed in the line of duty, over 20 years ago, and and they played it and after that for a few years every single time I heard it, not to long afterwards, I found out someone else I knew, or was related to, had died..... just discovered I still can't listen to it

There are a couple of Billy Joel songs that catch me like this.
While on the Greatest Hits compilations, they get little to no air time.
My mom had them picked for my sister's funeral.
It was very eerie to hear one of them after i got back home, about 2 weeks later....while I was thinking about how we had cleared her house out.

Love him. We were fortunate to see Billy Joel and Elton John in a concert together about 12 - 13 years ago. One of my favorite experiences ever.

I think the only concert I enjoyed more was Elton John's "Solo" tour - just him and his piano in smaller venues.

Meh... I don't do New Year resolutions. When I decide to do something - I just do it. If I waited until New Year every time, nothing would get done around here. :)

Maria isn't big on them. I usually make a couple. I haven't made any yet for this year - still contemplating.
