Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone.
And I never see my old friends face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well,
Back in the days when we raised hell.
And now we are busy, tired men,
Longing to remember when.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
"Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Jim
Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner, yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir, Jim died today."
And that's what we get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
Remember to always say what you mean. If you love someone, tell them. Don't be afraid to express yourself. Reach out and tell someone what they mean to you. Because when you decide that it is the right time, it might be too late. Seize the day. Never have regrets. And most importantly, stay close to your friends and family, for they have helped make you the person that you are today.

When it's Over...it's over. Another year of fantasy football (maybe my last) has ended. I have this bitter taste in my mouth - losing sucks. If you know me, you know how competitive I can be. I hate losing. I hate everything about it. It sticks with you for days, until it finally fades away enough to be tolerable. To quote my favorite Nascar driver, Ricky Bobby, "If you ain't first, you're last."
