Jag's Random Thoughts
Just A Guy

Remember saying, I'll wait for you forever....If you tell someone you wouldn’t lust after them and you have an erotic dream about them, did you break your word.....Wouldn’t it be great if we could capture the feeling of that first kiss over and over.....Is there anything so sad as knowing it’s over and pretending it isn’t.....Is there anything nicer than sitting in front of the fireplace holding the one you love - the pounding rain on the roof and gentle sighes the only sounds.....No matter the pain - a love that’s gone bad, that couldn’t be, is so much better than nothingness.....There’s no accounting for taste, consider Ozzy Osborne.....I think the reason we all feel the songs of our generation were the best is that at that time we’d never get old, we wouldn’t grow up to be like our parents, we’d find a love and it would be forever.....Did I really think she was the most wonderful girl in the world.....I’ve little doubt TV broke the natural evolution of each generation taking just small steps toward being freer sexually.....Isn’t deceiving a loved one a form of rape.....Wouldn’t it be just great if we could be the person we wanted to be.....VOTE - sure most politicians are liars, maybe even crooked but wouldn’t you rather have your crooks in power than the other guys.....I have to believe there’s a special hell awaiting child molesters.....We know better, know it isn’t right but we do it anyway.....Would I be brave in a life threatening crisis....Staying even is not an option, move ahead or fall behind....
