    :rofl :rofl

    That was, in all reality, throwing me off. And then in the original, Billy Joel starts sneaking in all these weird rhymes in weird places.

    You'd be more apt to see me smoking a joint outside than hearing me sing.

    Excellent work on these videos, Rumsfeld! I've only been able to watch a couple but I look forward to going back and checking out some more.

    Father Time has the most impressive record of any heavyweight champion, but it is not unbeatable.

    He got cold clocked by an ancient George Foreman.

    Earlier examples of the defeated champion regaining the title.

    Ben Caunt regained the title, after he lost it to Nick Ward.

    Jem Mace regained the title after he lost to Tom King, but not from King himself.

    Yeah, guys like Big George, Archie, and Bernard have all battled Father Time better than most. But in the end, even they succumb to it, much like the rest of us.

    I confess to knowing virtually nothing about that era.
