Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
As we get older it seems that we remember the long ago past like it was yesterday even though we can't remember what we had for dinner last night...😂...
This was a touching song by The Beatles that I was not familiar with...but like you I have many old friends that pop up in memories and I am grateful for each one that contributed to making my life the unique tapestry that it is for me...so many people that I learned from, loved and admired...gone but not forgotten...the greatest gift that God gives us is the gift of love and there is no greater love than the love of a true friend...I actually named one of my sons Jonathan David because I was so impressed with the friendship of these two...thank you for sharing this...it brought a tear to my eye also...
I especially liked the parts showing young George Harrison goofing around. He was a goofball and I appreciate that. I guess that was really him doing that backflip off of a chair in his "Set on You" music video from the '80s.
This.
