  1. I really loved that Stand by Me video. It was a lot better than I thought it would be.

  2. My wife has always organized our thanksgiving and christmas with spreadsheets. We typically have between 30 and 40 people.

  3. That stand by me video was incredibly moving to me….we aren’t all that different after all are we???

  4. Booooo-urns! We have to wait until 2009 to get a digital download of the stand by me song.
