Please help, answer that question, I will feel dumb when someone answers cause I know I it already just can't recall now. But I love that song though. I see I have to fill 10 lines of text so I am adding that I believe it or not I just got interested in Guiding Light with the Daytime Dollars code promotion, I had watched As the World Turns consistently 1983-1998 then stopped and rejoined 4/2/2006 the 50 year anniversary show, and tried to just pay attention to the code in Guiding Light but I got wrapped up in the Reva cancer story, mainly cause I had just seen Kim Zimmer win yet another Emmy so I decided I would give it a shot, and ironically that part is the one that is getting OLD I wish she would just tell JOSH get it over with.
