Santa Dave Memories

I thought it would be nice to have a spot for us to share our memories of Dave, just like we did with Kirk, and we can get them passed along to his family.

We missed Santa Dave at Me2's celebration last night. I remember him coming to hang out and sing karaoke on our b-days. What a sweetheart.

Happy Birthday Santa Dave. Thank you for your part in granting a Christmas wish last week. I felt that you definitely had something to do with it.

See You On The Other Side Lyrics

Artist(Band):Ozzy Osbourne

Voices, a thousand, thousand voices

Whispering, the time has passed for choices

Golden days are passing over, yeah

I can't seem to see you baby

Although my eyes are open wide

But I know I'll see you once more

When I see you, I'll see you on the other side

Yes, I'll see you, I'll see you on the other side

Leaving, I hate to see you cry

Grieving, I hate to say goodbye

Dust and ash forever, yeah

Though I know we must be parted

As sure as stars are in the sky

I'm gonna see YOU when it comes to glory

And I'll see you, I'll see you on the other side

Yes I'll see you, I'll see you on the other side

Never thought I'd feel like this

Strange to be alone, yeah

But we'll be together

Carved in stone, carved in stone, carved in stone

Hold me, hold me tight, I'm falling

Far away. Distant voices calling

I'm so cold. I need you darling, yeah

I was down, but now I'm flying

Straight across the great divide

I know you're crying, but I'll stop you crying

When I see you, I see you on the other side

Yes. I'll see you. See you on the othe(r) side

I'm gonna see you. See you on the other side

God knows I'll see you, see you on the other side, yeah

I'll see you. See you on the other side

I'm gonna see you. See you on the other side

God knows I'll see you, see you on the other side, yeah

I wanna see you, yeah, yeah, yeah, see you on the other side

God knows I'll see you, see you on the other side, yeah

I'm gonna see you. See you on the other side

Hello to the friends of Cousin David, whose e-mail addresses I posess. I join you in missing "Santa Dave" this year.

I know that the Medalian Hunters will miss his presence during the Winter Festivies in St. Paul. I believe that Dave has joined the other Santas who have completed their earthly rounds, and have gone to their final residence at the North Pole. We have all stashed Dave in our hearts, however we do miss his earthly presence. I am visiting my daughter and her family in Germany where they are stationed with the USAF. I will return to FL on the 5th of Jan.

God Bless you all.

We're going to miss you at the PDG Santa Dave. I have a feeling you'll still make it somehow.

10 P.M. Moment of cooler silence for those we lost the year before?

I'll just follow the masses on this one.

I think a group toast to Santa Dave at 10 would be good

maybe instead of silence.

We lost more than Santa Dave. Posen lost his virginity, etc.

"Posen lost his virginity"

THERE'S one petting zoo that will not let me back in anytime soon!

So here's a thought. Given that Dave's got the medallion, and there's a new one this year, will he be mentioned in a clue?

When could have given you a map.

But we suggest you take a nap.

But to be first in line at the buffet.

You need to be a man with a sleigh.

No way!! Neil Rocks the free world! (Young that is, not Diamond)

Although that is my favotite Neil Young tune, I like the grunge of this classic. It was crunchy way before crunchy was in.

I wonder what came first Mississippi Queen or Hey Hey My My?
Wed, 01/09/2008 - 2:23 PM Permalink
mrmnmikey

That tune rocks too!

I think Mississippi Queen was first but not sure.

That song brings back a lot of memories for me. I learned to play it on my guitar a long time ago. Thanks for the reminder, I'll have to play it again now.
