it reminds me of you

I was just re-watching Bill Clinton on "The Daily Show," and he was reminding me so much of my grandfather. Maybe it's because Bill's getting up there in years now, and he's about the age that my grandfather was when I knew him best, when I saw him every day. He's also always reminded me of Jimmy Carter, my Pop Pop. And it's really pretty weird, because he wasn't Southern at all. Maybe it's because all three have similiar coloring. And are just wonderful.

Speaking of my grandfather not being Southern, did I even tell you of the story of how I thought he was from the Midwest, but it turned out he was from Yonkers. Which is a quintessentially New York story, I think.

Why do karaoke DVDs come with backup vocals? I hate it.
