Exactly what is the purpose of this thread other than a blatant exercise to increase your post count?

This thread has no purpose or meaning whatsoever. It is not funny and neither even a tad informative.

Well let's spice things up a bit....

Poem/Song: If only, if only.....

Source: Holes by Louis Sachar (Disney movie of same name)

"If only, if only," the woodpecker sighs,
"The bark on the tree was as soft as the skies."
While the wolf waits below, hungry and lonely,
Crying to the moo-oo-oon,
If only, If only."

Louis Sachar (Holes)

This is not so much an important quote as it is a recurring quote in the book. Although slightly changed by each person, these are the basic lyrics to the song that Madame Zeroni taught Elya Yelnats and that was subsequently passed down through generations until it reached Stanley and Zero. The lyrics of the song show that even wolves and birds wish that life was easier. It is a fitting song to be sung by the Yelnats and Zeroni families, two families that have had bad luck and hard lives.

And, of course, "If only..." the movie:
