    @ There's good times to be had
    takin it easy, day by day Glad for the blue moon tonight. Well they tell me of a pie in the sky Waiting for me when I die But between the day you're born and when you die They never seem to hear even your cry So as sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share of what's mine and then The bigger they come The harder they fall one and all Ooh, the bigger they come The harder they fall one and all Well the oppressors are trying to keep me down Trying to drive me underground And they think that they have got the battle won I say, "Forgive 'em Lord they no not what they've done" 'Cause as sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share of what's mine and then And then the bigger they come The harder they fall one and all Ooh, the bigger they come The harder they fall one and all And I keep on fighting for the things I want Though I know that when you're dead you're can't But I'd rather be a free man in my grave Than living as a puppet or a slave So as sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share now what's mine and then And then the bigger they come The harder they fall one and all Ooh, the bigger they come The harder they fall one and all Hey, the bigger they come The harder they fall one and all Ooh, the bigger they come The harder they fall one and all The bigger they come The harder they fall one and all

    @Hey Ringo!!!!
    Pun intended.... It don't cum easy! Plasma, platelets, blood, sperm.... Take it Jethro..,,. Nothing is easy. Though time gets you worrying my friend, it's o.k. Just take your life easy and stop all that hurrying, be happy my way. When tension starts mounting and you've lost count of the pennies you've missed, just try hard and see why they're not worrying me, they're last on my list. Nothing's easy. Nothing is easy, you'll find that the squeeze won't turn out so bad. Your fingers may freeze, worse things happen at sea, there's good times to be had. So if you're alone and you're down to the bone, just give us a play. You'll smile in a while and discover that I'll get you happy my way -- nothing's easy. Take it easy Holly!!!!!

    @ HAPPY BIRTHDAY
    I take it how I can get it! You have a great weekend too! Tell Sarge Happy Birthday too. Spring was never waiting for us, girl It ran one g step ahead As we followed in the dance Between the parted pages and were pressed In love's hot, fevered iron Like a striped pair of pants MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark All the sweet, green icing flowing down Someone left the cake out in the rain I don't think that I can take it 'Cause it took so long to bake it And I'll never have that recipe again, oh noooooo I recall the yellow cotton dress Foaming like a wave On the ground around your knees Birds like tender babies in your hands And the old men playing checkers, by the trees MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark All the sweet, green icing flowing down Someone left the cake out in the rain I don't think that I can take it 'Cause it took so long to bake it And I'll never have that recipe again, oh noooooo (Short instrumental interlude) There would be another song for me For I will sing it There would be another dream for me Someone will bring it I will drink the wine while it is warm And never let you catch me looking at the sun And after all the loves of my life After all the loves of my life, you'll still be the one I will take my life into my hands and I will use it I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it I will have the things that I desire And my passion flow like rivers through the sky And after all the loves of my life Oh, after all the loves of my life I'll be thinking of you - and wondering why (Longer instrumental interlude) MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark All the sweet, green icing flowing down Someone left the cake out in the rain I don't think that I can take it 'Cause it took so long to bake it And I'll never have that recipe again Oh noooooo, o-oh no-ooooo

Well I'm upper upper class high society God's gift to ballroom notoriety And I always fill my ballroom The event is never small The social pages say I've got The biggest balls of all I've got big balls I've got big balls They're such big balls And they're dirty big balls And he's got big balls And she's got big balls (But we've got the biggest balls of them all) And my balls are always bouncing My ballroom always full And everybody cums and cums again If your name is on the guest list No one can take you higher Everybody says I've got Great balls of fire I've got big balls Oh I've got big balls And they're such big balls Dirty big balls And he's got big balls And she's got big balls (But we've got the biggest balls of them all) Some balls are held for charity And some for fancy dress But when they're held for pleasure They're the balls that I like best My balls are always bouncing To the left and to the right It's my belief that my big balls Should be held every night We've got big balls We've got big balls We've got big balls Dirty big balls He's got big balls She's got big balls (But we've got the biggest balls of them all) (We've got big balls) (We've got big balls) And I'm just itching to tell you about them Oh we had such wonderful fun Seafood cocktail, crabs, crayfish (But we've got the biggest balls of them all) Never quite bought into their juvenile sense of humor....

I Lived in Buffalo for each and every Super Bowl loss. Didn't watch a game for years after number 4. That gave me an appreciation for soccer, although I do go to Bucs games when the team is in town and look for a slam of the Bucs I am now a full Tampa Bay Rowdies fan though. Ralph's Mob rules!

...for beating those nasty classless poor sports, the Seahags. Almost the best day in football, ever (and I don't like the Pats either). The exception: Russell Wilson has class and is a good sport, too bad he hasn't rubbed off on the rest of the team or the coach.

I know this sounds crazy, but cayanne pepper is a vascular dialator and will allow more blood to regions starved for it, many with migranes find relief from snorting a small amount, think matchhead. It will burn. Many report after the burn, headache is gone. I'm not sure how bad it would be, but I use a caynne based nasal spray, and after s short burn, sinus is clear. If you try it start small.

Yessiree...it works if indeed she has migraines, but if it's another cause it could steal her face right off her head..... Saw someone in an ER with a hemorrhagic nose bleed after snorting crushed red pepper, why I asked, did you do that? Response....cause I could..... then there was the guy with the lightbulb up his.... But I digress....

I do tend to get migraines, and though these current headaches have been on the tamer side, I attribute them to migraines since I do suffer from them, and also the three days in a row thing. They have been subsiding with medication - and my headache is better right now though my head not back to normal. I am DEFINITELY going to get some cayenne to keep on deck!! Thanks Boo! It's strange that I haven't heard that suggestion. I've done worse in my younger days, I think I'll be able to handle it and as I love spicy foods I might even like it. I guess I'll have to think twice about telling anybody anything about "where the light don't shine." Apparently, that is everywhere. Keep Stella Blue.

again I emphasize, start small! I consume a teaspoon or two of the cayenne daily, a 1/2 teaspoon in a cup of hot water a couple times daily, it keeps veins open wide, good for many ailments. Google cayenne health benefits, you will be suprised at the number of things it helps. Keep it away from rrrrgrrrr or he won't be able to sit down for a week.

My daughter pulled second place in last nights Talent show Playing "Wayfaring Stranger". Man,! She was packing some soul!!! Tonight's her sweet sixteen party,..I have to write a Toast,..I am no public speaker, and dread such things. It is so incredible to see what a beautiful young woman she has become. I still see her as a tiny little kid, on a Sunday morning looking up at me from her cereal bowl with those big blue Eyes, asking me to pass the O.J....I hope everyone has a Greeeeeaaat Friday, Tfonts,..Love the new Avatar,.. My brother lives just outside Cleveland and I've been to Rock Hall a few times,...Doors and Stones Exhibits,.. unfortunately never made it out there for The Grateful Dead exhibit, Although My Ex did and bought me a Tee Shirt.
