So my mom was going through piles of old **** from my childhood that hasn't been brought out in well over a decade. She finds a copy of our local paper from the day I was born. 08/22/80. Wouldn't ya know it, look what is on the front page. This is almost eerie. Yoda was also my pledge name in college (not chosen by me).

I'd say the odds are about 15.5-1.

Yoda is on the front page of my local paper about once a week. So 6-1.

Mine too but the caption always says "Dick Chaney".
I keep telling myself I'm moving on
Believing my heart was strong
But every step I take that leads me away
Just circles back to your door

Wishing I didn't love you
What I'd give if I could touch you

Wishing I didn't love you anymore

Nothing makes me want to buy grape juice and stain remover than seeing that Yoda endorses it. Hey, If Yoda uses it, it must be good right?
Dammit, there's no time!

I have collected papers for 40 years and 'the record' is one of my favorite collectibles. Your picture struck me as kind of odd, so I looked it up in my own collection. Here is what I found.

weird, you must be related, i mean does your mom admit to knowing Yoda?
Waiting for the winds of change
To sweep the clouds away
Waiting for the rainbow's end
To cast its gold your way
Countless ways
You pass the days
