    He's on ba dus.... reminds me of an old Harry Nilsson song.... Me and my Arrow straighter than narrow where ever we go everyone knows it's me and my Arrow Me and my Arrow taking the high road where ever we go everyone knows it's me and my Arrow And in the morning when I wake up she may be gone I don't know and if we make up just to break up I'll carry on oh yes I will Me and my Arrow straighter than narrow where ever we go everyone knows it's me and my Arrow Me and my Arrow Me and my Arrow Me and my Arrow Me and my Arrow Me and my Arrow Me and my Arrow straighter than narrow where ever we go everyone knows it's me and my Arrow

    I had never heard of him and I listened to both of those songs when I looked him up... I was gonna give someone else a chance to get the trivia but I guess we're the only ones on da dus again. I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away. Mildewed and smoldering. Fundamental differing. Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion Disintegrating as it goes testing our communication The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so We cannot seem to reach an end crippling our communication. I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them tumble down No fault, none to blame, it doesn't mean I don't desire to Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over. To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication The poetry that comes from the squaring off between, And the circling is worth it. Finding beauty in the dissonance. There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away. Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing. Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication. Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion between supposed lovers, between supposed lovers, I know the pieces fit [8x]

At Saint Alfonzo's Pancake Breakfast Where I stole the mar-juh-reen An' widdled on the Bingo Cards in lieu of the latrine I saw a handsome parish lady Make her entrance like a queen Why she was totally chenille And her old man was a Marine As she abused a sausage pattie And said why don't you treat me mean?

    Name this artist? well your mother was there to protect you your papa was there to provide so how in the world did the excellent baby wind up in this hotel so broken inside you lie on your bed in the midnight darkly listening to every sound watching the shadows for anything moving and hoping they don't come around 'cause it's dog eat dog and it's cat and mouse it's watch your step and cross yourself and get back in the house and it's do or die it's push and shove because everybody's hungry and there isn't quite enough that's right, we're talkin' about the good life in the foodchain love among the ruins i guess that you've finally got to accept that there's nothing you can do about it it's kind of like carving the turkey it's kind of like mowing the lawn: everything gets to this certain dimension winds up on a customer's plate and then gone

    It's a beautiful day in Zamunda
    The rain rain went away so Holly can go out and play! I had a wonderful walk to work today, there was a cool breeze blowin the trees around, the sun is shining and there is blue sky and wispy clouds. Glad I have a window in my office. It's a beautiful morning, ah I think I'll go outside for a while And just smile Just take in some clean fresh air, boy No sense in staying inside If the weather's fine and you've got the time It's your chance to wake up and plan another brand new day Either way It's a beautiful morning, ah Each bird keeps singing his own song So long I've got to be on my way now No fun just hanging around I got to cover ground You couldn't keep me down It just ain't no good if the sun shines When you're still inside Shouldn't hide Still inside Shouldn't hide Still inside, shouldn't hide. Oh, oh, oh Ooh-ah-ah Ooh-ah-ah There will be children with robins and flowers Sunshine caresses each new waking hour Seems to me that people keep seeing more and more each day Gotta say, lead the way It's okay, brand new day Gotta say, it's okay Brand new day, gotta say, lead the way Oh, oh, oh Ooh-ah-ah Oh, oh, oh Ooh-ah-ah Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh Ooh-ah-ah Oh Ooh-ah-ah

    a good day indeed The heart is a bloom Shoots up through the stony ground There's no room No space to rent in this town You're out of luck And the reason that you had to care The traffic is stuck And you're not moving anywhere You thought you'd found a friend To take you out of this place Someone you could lend a hand In return for grace It's a beautiful day Sky falls, you feel like It's a beautiful day Don't let it get away You're on the road But you've got no destination You're in the mud In the maze of her imagination You love this town Even if that doesn't ring true You've been all over And it's been all over you It's a beautiful day Don't let it get away It's a beautiful day Touch me Take me to that other place Teach me I know I'm not a hopeless case See the world in green and blue See China right in front of you See the canyons broken by cloud See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out See the Bedouin fires at night See the oil fields at first light And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth After the flood all the colors came out It was a beautiful day Don't let it get away Beautiful day Touch me Take me to that other place Reach me I know I'm not a hopeless case What you don't have you don't need it now What you don't know you can feel it somehow What you don't have you don't need it now Don't need it now Was a beautiful day

    Good day sunshine, Good day sunshine, Good day sunshine. I need to laugh, and when the sun is out I've got something I can laugh about, I feel good, in a special way. I'm in love and it's a sunny day. Good day sunshine, Good day sunshine, Good day sunshine. We take a walk, the sun is shining down, Burns my feet as they touch the ground. Good day sunshine, Good day sunshine, Good day sunshine. And then we lie, beneath a shady tree, I love her and she's loving me. She feels good, she knows she's looking fine. I'm so proud to know that she is mine. Good day sunshine...

    Thanks for confirmation that I passed on stones in dallas. What you saw is what I feared. With a finite entertainment budget (which was seriously blown for FTW), I'm glad I passed on the stones. I was regretting it for a while sort of. I'm sure it was fine but I want spectacular!

Back in the 80's, my dad took the entire video of my brother's wedding with the camera upside down. The last thing on the recording is his grumbly baritone growling ... "godammit, you mean I've had this fucking thing..." One of my life's true precious memories. Man oh man, I miss that man.

Youngster! I think my first LP was Out of the Blue by ELO, or was it Capt Fantastic by Elton? Probably Elton John, I think it came out in '73-74 (I was 9-10 yrs old).

And goodnight, dear B.B. Thank you for the music. It's nice to think of everyone communing together in person and remotely over the Dear Jerry fest while I was at work doing the deal. Sorry for the loss of the Blues great. It's just that Wheel. So. Here's to all our safe passage to Chicago and beyond. It will be great while it lasts <3 Boo I hope to see some of those monkeys in June. Hope they have a place to play! Sounds like there's nothing but nothing near SC. Big sigh. :) I have a gray-eyed cat snuggled up to me as I say goodnight with my brown eyes. Another two hours before rrgrr and Tonytone are up but... I think we've had enough of a day, que no? It's been a big full day. Night dreamerz... Sweetest of dreamzzz.
