    @my San Antonio Rose....
    If you ever feel lonesome, and your down in San Antone,Beg, steal, or borrow two nickels or a dime, and call me on the Phone. I'll meet you at Alamo mission, and we can say our prayers, The Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mother will heal us as we kneel there. In the moonlight, in the midnight, in the moonlight, midnight Moonlight. If you ever feel sorrow for the deeds you have done, With no hope for tomorrow in the setting of the sun. And the ocean is howling of things that might have been, And that last good morning sunrise will be the brightest you've ever Seen. In the moonlight, in the midnight, in the moonlight, midnight Moonlight. If you ever feel sorrow for the deeds you have done, With no hope for tomorrow in the setting of the sun.

    Deep within my heart Lies a melody, A song of old San Antone, Where in dreams I live With a memory, Beneath the stars all alone. Well, it was there I found Beside the Alamo Enchantment strange as the Blue up above, For that moonlit pass That only he would know Still hears my broken song of love. Moon in all your splendor, Known only to my heart, Call back my rose, Rose of San Antone! Lips so sweet and tender, Like petals fallin apart, Speak once again of my love, my own Broken song, Empty words I know Still live in my heart all alone, For that moonlit pass by the Alamo, And rose my rose of San Antone! [Instrumental] Well the, Moon in all your splendor, Known only to my heart, Call back my rose, Rose of San Antone! Lips so sweet and tender, Like petals fallin apart, Speak once again of my love, my own Broken song, Empty words I know Still live in my heart all alone, Well that moonlit pass by the Alamo, And rose my rose of San Antone. heh...

    South of the border, down Mexico wayThat's where I fell in love when the stars above came out to play And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray South of the border, down Mexico way She was a vision in old Spanish lace Just for a tender while, I kissed the smile upon her face For it was fiesta and we were so gay South of the border, down Mexico way Then she smiled as she whispered manana Never dreaming that we were parting And I lied as I whispered manana For our tomorrow never came South of the border, I rode back one day There in a veil of white, by candle light, she knelt to pray But the mission bells told me, that I mustn't stay South of the border, down Mexico way Ay ay ay ay, ay ay ay ay Ay ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay

    they only serve to lengthen the work week, no other purpose that I can see.. The song came and went Like the times that we spent Hiding out from the rain under the carnival tent I laughed and she'd smile It would last for awhile You don't know what you got till you lose it all again Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go A cool evening dance Listening to the bluegrass band takes the chill From the air till they play the last song I'll do my time Keeping you off my mind but there's moments That I find, I'm not feeling so strong Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go Running down by the lake shore She did love the sound of a summer storm It played on the lake like a mandolin Now it's washing her away once again Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go The boat's steaming in I watch the side wheel spin and I Think about her when I hear that whistle blow I can't change my mind I knew all the time that she'd go But that's a choice I made long ago Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go

'o nuts? OK, now I really do have to go find some chocolate. Tough road -- there is danger in learning to appreciate fine chocolate, sorta like good wine. Impossible to go back to the plebian, when you get used to good stuff.

The dark stuff (w/out nuts) is my fancy, but it's not the most patrician chocolate. Good for the heart, though. OK, I gotta get back to work before I end up separated from my gainful employment. Peace out, Daydreamers!

Mad Swan, I broke my phone yesterday as well. The screen at least. Oh, well, such is life when you forget that picking up that piece of litter means that gravity will induce a separation between phone and pocket. One man gathers what another man spills. Errrrg, sounds like you and Reese's Oreo need to get a room! You know this space is getting hot. I never knew tastebuds had such vast capabilities.... Have a grate day everyone!

Cookies are in my top 5 desert island foods. I thought it would be fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies (maybe oatmeal chocolate chip - hold the raisins please), but I might include ALL cookies so that ALL Oreo flavors and maybe some Pepperidge Farm might be included. Kristine - YES. Any kind of peanut-butter related Oreo sounds like breakfast. My tutu (grandmother in Hawaii) and I had been known from time to time to enjoy a nice moist piece of chocolate cake for breakfast there in paradise. All - there exist both peanut butter AND Reeses peanut butter Oreos. The Reese ones are among the limited edition, such as are the Red Velvet Cake ones... peanut butter > Reese peanut butter ones. Birthday cake flavor > peanut butter. Red Velvet = birthday cake (maybe birthday cake slightly better than Red Velvet). Klang I will have to try the half and halfsies. I have not tried the mint or the (lemon?) yellow ones yet. Anyone? Okay. I have some strange strains of OCD, but you still love me. xo Stellz

Y'all have done it to me now. I couldn't just get the coffee from Starbucks this afternoon. No, I felt strangely compelled to see if there were any CHOCOLATE COOKIE treats. Found one--they call it "flourless" but it tasted just fine to me. They looked at me funny when I tried to order a Reese's Oreo cookie, though.

Oh you crazy money-focused Deadheads you. Personally, I wouldn't have thought it. At least they're not bankers. Not that I have an opinion on that.
