Is this the last post in GD-P? (Ode to GD-Pers who did it their way)

[SaveAmerica]

I've been saving up all the 3 posts a day I haven't used and am hoping to have the honor of being the post to close this place down. This has been a wild ride, an eye-opening one for sure. Here's to all the GD-Pers who felt compelled to do it their way:


And now, the end is near;
GD-P will face the final curtain.
My friend, Ill say it clear,
Ill state my case, of which I'm certain.

Ive lived a life thats full.
Ive traveled each and every highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Regrets, Ive had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it my way.

Ive loved, Ive laughed and cried.
Ive had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it my way.

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!
