Many moons ago, I posted my favorite single line of song lyric and asked people to share theirs. Now we move from the micro to the macro! My question: what is your favorite song lyric?

I had a fairly action packed weekend worth recounting.

A day or two before the Gmen headed west, we received good news. The Managing Editor of Metro (Edmonton) had taken an interest in our publicity material and invited me to blog my Edmonton Fringe experience for Metro.
As it turns out, Harry, the Managing Editor, is an old high school friend. He recognized Dave’s name [...]
