Favorite Quote:
The wonderful love of a beautiful maid,
The love of a staunch true man,
The love of a baby, unafraid,
Have existed since time began.

But the greatest of loves, The quintessence of loves.
even greater than that of a mother,
Is the tender, passionate, infinite love,
of one drunken Marine for another.

"Semper Fidelis"

He plays his piano for me when I'm sick.
He plays his piano for me when I'm sad.
He plays his piano for me when I'm cooking.
He plays his piano for me when I'm far away.
He plays his piano for me when there's no words to say.
He plays his piano for me when I sleep.
He plays his piano for me.
He plays his piano for me...
He plays what his heart can't say aloud.
For me.
