Ok William, Rob, et. al, how's this for a better sig file?
It is kind of appropo in light of current events. I know it is 'just
Yoda', but there is a lot of philosophy in Star Wars that rings true for me.

Just in case there is anyone out there who has never heard this, I give
you the lyrics and I'm sure those of you with good connections can find
it online to listen to-it is worth it...Warning, this will stay in your
head and you will never again hear Lola the same way..LOL.

YODA by "Weird Al" Yankovic

[To the tune of "Lola" by the Kinks]

I met him in a swamp down in Dagobah
Where it bubbles all the time
Like a giant carbonated soda
S-O-D-A, soda
I saw the little runt sitting there on a log
I asked him his name
And in a raspy voice he said Yoda
Y-O-D-A, Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda

Well, I've been around but I ain't never seen
A guy who looks like a muppet
But he's wrinkled and green
Oh my Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
Well, I'm not dumb but I can't understand
How he can lift me in the air
Just by raisin' his hand
Oh my Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda

Well, I left home just a week before
And I'd never, ever been a Jedi before
But Obi-Wan, he set me straight, of course
He said, "Go to Yoda and he'll show you the Force"

Now, I'm not the kind that would argue with Ben
So it looks like I'm gonna start all over again
With my Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda

So I used the Force, I picked up a box
I lifted some rocks while I stood on my head
Well I won't forget what Yoda said

He said, "Luke, stay away from the darker side
And if you start to go astray let the Force be your guide"
Oh my Yoda
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda

"I know Darth Vader's really got you annoyed
But, remember if you kill him then you'll be unemployed"
Oh my Yoda
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda

Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess
So I'm gonna have to leave Yoda, I guess
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
I'll be playin' this part 'til I'm old and gray

The long-term contract I had to sign
Says I'll be making these movies till the end of time
With my Yoda
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
