This Blog is an outlet for the random thoughts of an amateur opinionator.
What's an opinionator?
An opinionator is somebody who has power without responsibility, and the ability to spout off on any subject without worrying too much about the consequences of what comes out of the mouth. All you need is an opinion and the opportunity to voice it.
TV is full of professional opinionators. The internet gives the amateur his chance.

Close To You
Sam MilbyThere’s nothing I won’t try
Just to make you mine
To get a little closer
Would be so divineAnd everytime I see you
U make me come undone
I always want u near me
In you I found the oneChorus:
Oh, why don’t you smile my only star
Shine on baby
Smile, my only star
Smile, my only star
[2x]With you by my side
Girl it feels so right
Now that im close to you
I could stay all nightNo matter where I go
No matter what I do
In the end just smile
Bring me back to youChorus:
Oh, why don’t you smile my only star
Shine on baby
Smile, my only star
Smile, my only star
[2x]Uou shine so true
I can’t believe your mine
Everything may change
But to me you’ll always shineChorus:
Oh, why don’t you smile my only star
Shine on baby
Smile, my only star
Smile, my only star
[2x]
I take the bus home almost every single day, and I don’t usually smile on the bus. The bus, on a good day, is a time when I can be alone and have some quiet time with a good morning radio show or with good music from my walkman phone. Unless I have friends with me, I don’t want to be making chit-chat or interacting with people. In fact, random strangers trying to chat me up on the bus really annoys me.
But I saw something yesterday that made me smile.
A woman came on the bus. She looked tired [this was at about 5:30 PM]. Her face was drawn down. She had a bit of a shuffle more than a walk. As she was shuffling down the length of the bus heading toward its rear, a seated passenger reached out and grabbed her by the waist without saying anything. For a split second, she looked extremely distressed. I imagined, based on that quick glimpse of her facial expression, that she was thinking, “Oh, my God. I’m being accosted by some crazy person. I just want to be left alone.” But then she turned to look at the person grabbing her, and clearly it was someone she knew. She quickly turned her horrified face into a widened smile and sat next to this guy and began talking to him.
I couldn’t hear anything they were saying. Nevertheless, they were so happy to see each other that I couldn’t help a wide smile myself. I knew nothing about these people. They didn’t appear to be dating. They clearly liked each other and either are or had been emotionally close at one point. Maybe they hadn’t seen each other in a long time. Maybe this guy was visiting the area from far away. Imagine that they happened to be on the same bus at the same time by accident. I loved that moment. I still have no idea who these people are, and they somehow managed to brighten my day at the end of my evening commute.
I’m really in good mood for these past few days [and I don't know if I'll hate the reason].
