If You Could,

[cali]

would you?

Just a yes or no answer please.

Here's mine: No.

[MichiganVote]

1. Yes! (what am I doing anyway?)

[rzemanfl]

2. Yes. Right in the head. n/t

[porphyrian]

3. I reject the premise of the question.

It implies too many contradictory possibilities to accurately choose only one of an arbitrarily binary answer set. If you just want us to pick yes or no, why not just ask "Yes or no?"

[AndyA]

4. Yes. No. Errr...I dunno. What was the question again? n/m

[mcscajun]

5. Hell, Yes.

Why not?

:)

[cali]

6. I can think of several

reasons why not, tempting as it may be, and although a good argument could probably be made for the affirmative position.

[mcscajun]

9. Well if woodchuck could...

...chuck wood.

[leftchick]

7. maybe

;)

8. In a second.

I wouldn't even look back. It's not a punitive issue as much as a preventative measure.

[mcscajun]

10. Looking back? Or Doing?

or is that DUing? :)

11. "Do you remember the night...

When the sky was so dark and the moon shone so bright?
When a million small children pretending to sleep
Nearly didn't have Christmas at all, so to speak?
And would, if you could, turn that mighty clock back,
To that long, fateful night. Now, think carefully, Jack.
Would you do the whole thing all over again,
Knowing what you know now, knowing what you knew then?"

And he smiled, like the old pumpkin king that I knew,
Then turned and asked softly of me, "Wouldn't you?

14. Yes i would, if I could

If I could - I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes.
Give you courage in a world of compromise.
Yes, I would...

If I could - I would teach you all the things I never learned.
And I'd help you cross the bridges that I burned.
Yes, I would...

If I could - I would try to shield your innocence from time.
But, the part of life I gave you isn't mine.
I watched you grow - So I could let you go...

If I could - I would help you make it through the hungry years.
But, I know that I could never dry your tears.
But, I would - If I could...

Yes, if I live - in a time and place where you don't want to be,
you don't have to walk along this road with me.
My yesterday - won't have to be your way...

If I knew - I would try to change the world I brought you to.
And there isn't very much that I could do.
But, I would - if I could...

Oh, baby, Daddy wants to protect you.
And help my baby through the hungry years.
'Cause you're a part of me.
And if you ever, ever need, I said a shoulder to cry on,
Or just someone to talk to, I'll be there. I'll be there.
I didn't change the world.
But, I would - If I could...

(Spoken) "Oh, darlin'. I love ya baby."...
