Grow Old With YouI love this song that Adam Sandler sings in the Wedding Singer
Here's looking at ya (e:libertad)...
I wanna make you smile
whenever you are sad
carry you around when your arthritis is bad
all i wanna do is grow old with you
i'll give you medicine when your tummy aches
build you a fire if the furnace breaks
oh it could be so nice growing old with you
i'll miss you, kiss you, give you my coat when yo uare cold
need you, feed you, even let you hold the remote cnotrol
so let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
put you to bed when you've had too much to drink
oh i'll be the man who grows old with you
i wanna grow old with you

OH, I should have posted mine last night too. I don't think I was miserable in that first picture. Maybe a little bit cause our luggage took forever and it was late.

The Secret of the Neon TangoFirst of all that would make a good movie title. Second of all , my entire life has been spent pondering the neon tango dancers above the Sahara Grill, that were about Uncle JOes, that were above Just Pizza and prolly the 900 other businesses that have been in that location on elmwood and bidwell. I was always in awe of their neon dancing glory but noone ever knew how thye got there, who paid for them, who pays for them now? were they a piece of art, were they once an ad for a dance school? Who pays the elctric? Who put them up? No one ever knows
AND THEN tonight on channel 2 news they say coming up next the secret of those neon tango dancer on elmwood and I liteerally screamed and jumped for joy!!!!!!!!! I peed my pants while i waited for the commercial break to end and the secrets to all be revealed!!! So the story starts and THEY SAY NOTHING, al,l they say is that part of it was borken and the elmwood society fiexed it! That ansers nothing! that is not secrets revealed. I loathe you channel 2 but alas i don't have the choice of watching channel 4 right now! It was like i though i was about to have all the answers and now I'm left with just more questions!!!!!!!

The neon tango dancers are a staple of my youth. I mean I don't know how often I actually was down there when I was little, but I can't remember them not being there. Now they always make me think of (e:jill) because she loves them. I HOPE YOUR VACATION IS SUPER AWESOME, well a little bit not because I have to go to Eckerd and you won't be there :(

From :::link:::
In the early 1980s, a community economic revitilization project was undertaken to jazz up the Elmwood Strip section of Buffalo. The Strip was, and still is, home to several unique shops, nightclubs, bars, and restaurants. In 1982, the neon tango dancers were put up at the south end of the Elmwood Strip, welcoming those to the area. It was designed by Laura Rankin along with Dan Sack and Andy Ferullo, and contains a couple dancing the tango, with the neon depicting them in three different positions.
Unfortunately over the years, the tango dancers and it's companion neon moonrise, fell into disrepair and was neglected. For years it was never lit until the Buffalo Argentine Tango Society, along with a Buffalo councilman, raised some funds to get the neon lit up again. It doesn't quite function as it used to, but the fact that it's working again is a promising sign. The first pose is only half lit, and is on all the time. The other two poses seem to work pretty well for the most part. Hopefully some more money can be found to make it 100% again.

this is sickeningly cute.
Awe! I wanna put you to bed when you have had too much to drink too.
Hopefully by the time you are old, there will be some drugs to reverse arthritis.
If I didn't think you were so adorable I'd barf.
