Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What's changed in your life in the last five years?
Got a new cat, had a baby, lost two aunts, saw my mother fight off cancer (so far, so good), got an adult job, lost weight, regained weight, bought a new to us house, father-in-law lost a lobe of his lung, failed to sell old house (not so much a change, that, though).

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
shrift! The name of your company does not contain a comma, correct?
(Yes, I did get asked this as a serious research question).
I had a client that would get seriously tetchy if there was a comma between [corporate name] and Inc. "We spent millions of dollars on our branding campaign!" etc.
