What do you think about self driving cars? I’m going to say I AM SKEPTICAL about them! As far as I’m concerned, things are good until they’re not, right? They’re only a machine and machines break. What happens when a self driving vehicle has a tire blowout? What happens to a self driving vehicle in the event that some ninnyhammer in another lane makes an unforeseen lane change?

In the video, there are two mature gentlemen in the back seat and in awe of the technology. One pointed out that the self driving vehicles will be helpful in the event that their driver’s license are revoked (due to age).

Is anyone able to explain what the need for the lighted beacon on the top of the car?

The Doobie Brothers, LONG TRAIN RUNNING

Down around the corner
A half a mile from here
You see them LONG trains runnin'
And you watch them disappear

Without love
Where would you be now
Without love

You know I saw Miss Lucy
Down along the tracks
She lost her home and her family
And she won't be comin' back

Without love
Where would you be right now
Without love

Well the Illinois Central
And the Southern Central Freight
Gotta keep on pushin' Mama
'Cause you know they're runnin' late

Without love
Where would you be now - now, now, now
Without love

[Instrumental]

Well the Illinois Central
And the Southern Central Freight
Gotta keep on pushin' Mama
You know they're runnin' late

Without love
Where would you be now
Without love

When pistons keep on churnin'
And the wheels go 'round and 'round
And the steel rails lie cold and hard
For the miles that they go down

Without love
Where would you be right now
Without love

Where would you be now

Gotta get ya, baby, baby
Won't you boogie down?
Won't you boogie down?

Baby, baby, baby, baby
Won't you boogie down?

Where the big trains run
When the trains are movin' on

Ya gotta keep on movin'
Keep on movin'
Keep on movin'
Won't ya keep on movin'

The Beatles, THE LONG AND WINDING ROAD

The LONG and winding road, that leads, to your door
Will never disappear, I've seen that road before
It always leads me here, lead me to your door
The wild and windy night, that the rain, washed away
Has left a pool of tears, crying for the day
Why leave me standing here, let me know the way

Many times I've been alone, and many times I've cried
Any way you'll never know, the many ways I've tried
And still they lead me back, to the LONG winding road
You left me standing here a LONG LONG time ago
Don't leave me waiting here, lead me to your door

But still they lead me back to the long winding road
You left me standing here, a long long time ago
Don't keep me waiting here (Don't keep me waiting), lead me to your door
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

YEAH!

If I could afford a 150 M penthouse, I could afford to pay someone to carry me up that beautiful staircase.

I’m a little short on the cash so I won’t be moving to Manhattan any time soon.

Look what 150 M will buy you in Manhattan.

The word for Thursday, November 20, WAS

Neil Young, HEART OF GOLD

I want to live
I want to give
I've been a miner for a heart of GOLD
It's these expressions
I never give
That keep me searching for a heart of GOLD

And I'm getting old
Keep me searching for a heart of GOLD
And I'm getting old

I've been to Hollywood
I've been to Redwood
I crossed the ocean for a heart of GOLD
I've been in my mind
It's such a fine line
That keeps me searching for a heart of GOLD

And I'm getting old
Keeps me searching for a heart of GOLD
And I'm getting old

Keep me searching for a heart of GOLD
You keep me searching and I'm growing old
Keep me searching for a heart of GOLD
I've been a miner for a heart of GOLD

Sting, FIELDS OF GOLD

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in fields of GOLD

So she took her love for to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of GOLD

Will you stay with me? Will you be my love?
Among the fields of barley
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in fields of GOLD

See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of GOLD

I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in fields of GOLD
We'll walk in fields of GOLD

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of GOLD

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of GOLD
When we walked in fields of GOLD
When we walked in fields of GOLD

Rolling Stones, BROWN SUGAR

GOLD coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in a market down in New Orleans
Skydog slaver knows he's doing alright
Hear him whip the women just around midnight

Brown sugar how come you taste so good?
Brown sugar just like a young girl should

Drums beating, cold English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wonderin' where it's gonna stop
House boy knows that he's doing alright
You shoulda heard him just around midnight

Brown sugar how come you taste so good, now?
Brown sugar just like a young girl should, now

Ah, get along, brown sugar how come you taste so good, baby?
Ah, got me feelin' now, brown sugar just like a black girl should

I bet your mama was a tent show queen
And all her boyfriends were sweet sixteen
I'm no schoolboy but I know what I like
You shoulda heard me just around midnight

Brown sugar how come you taste so good, baby?
Ah, brown sugar just like a young girl should, yeah

I said yeah, yeah, yeah, woo
How come you... how come you taste so good?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, woo
Just like a... just like a black girl should
Yeah, yeah, yeah, woo

And I don’t/won’t miss this being a “snowbird”…..

That’s quite a story however it is what shaped the man that you have become!

You left the “Glove”? Hmmmmm….. I wonder where you lived because Michigan is definitely shaped like a mitten (at least the lower peninsula is).

What I find peculiar about Florida is their mosquitoes come out for about an hour and then go away.

Please come to my house and have as much fun as you like!

I gave blood today so I’ve been laying on the couch napping and when awake, looking at YouTube. I don’t miss being in Michigan, I don’t miss the cold and I don’t miss the falling leaves.

I thought it might be a Vette logo on the steering wheel but why would any dealership allow anyone the opportunity to order a green car with a red interior?

What happened to AbbyLee69?

I enjoy Christmas, shopping (the sales), decorating/decorations, the food and gatherings the scents and sounds ie Christmas music. About the music, a week to 10 days before is enough for me however I draw the line when it comes to Alvin and the Chipmunks singing OR THIS;

What is up with a car that has a green exterior and a red interior and what kinda knucklehead spends their money on it? By the way, is anyone able to identify the make/model of car?

Get smart get down with the pow wow

Dancing down on life with agility

Blessed with a bucket of lucky mobility
My mom, I love her 'cause she love me
Long gone are the times when she scrub me
Feelin' good my brother gonna hug me
Drink my juice young love chug-a-lug me

Keep you warm won't let you shiver
His heart is a never gonna wither
Come on, everybody, time to deliver

The word for Tuesday, November 17, GIVE

The word for Monday, November 16, SAW

Thank you, thank you very much…..(she says in her best Elvis voice)

Yes, OWNER OF A LONELY HEART

Move yourself
You always live your life
Never thinking of the future
Prove yourself
You are the move you make
Take your chances win or lose her

See yourself
You are the steps you take
You and you - and that's the only way

Shake - shake yourself
You're every move you make
So the story goes

Owner of a lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than - a
Owner of a BROKEN heart
Owner of a lonely heart

Say - you don't want to chance it
You've been hurt so before

Watch it now
The eagle in the sky
How he dancing one and only
You - lose yourself
No not for pity's sake
There's no real reason to be lonely
Be yourself
Give your free will a chance
You've got to want to succeed

Owner of a lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than - a
Owner of a BROKEN Oheart
Owner of a lonely heart

Owner of a lonely heart

After my own indecision
They confused me so
(Owner of a lonely heart)
My love said never question your will at all
In the end you've got to go
Look before you leap
(Owner of a lonely heart)
And don't you hesitate at all - no no
Owner of a lonely heart

Owner of a lonely heart
(Much better than a) Owner of a BROKEN heart
Owner of a lonely heart

Owner of a lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than - a
Owner of a BROKEN heart
Owner of a lonely heart

Owner of a lonely heart

Sooner or later each conclusion
Will decide the lonely heart
(Owner of a lonely heart)
It will excite it will delight
It will give a better start

Owner of a lonely heart

Don't deceive your free will at all
Don't deceive your free will at all
(Owner of a lonely heart)
Don't deceive your free will at all
Just receive it
Just receive it

Owner of a lonely heart

Mr. Mister, BROKEN WINGS

Baby, don't understand
Why we can't just hold on to each others' hands
This time might be the last, I fear
Unless I make it all too clear
I need you so, ohh

Take these BROKEN wings
And learn to fly again
Learn to live so free
When we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up and let us in
Take these BROKEN wings

Baby, I think tonight
We can take what was wrong and make it right, mmm
Baby, it's all I know
That you're half of the flesh
And blood that makes me whole
I need you so

So take these BROKEN wings
And learn to fly again
Learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up and let us in

Take these BROKEN wings
You've got to learn to fly
Learn to live and love so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up and let us in, yeah, yeah

Let us in
Let us in

Baby, it's all I know
That you're half of the flesh
And blood that makes me whole
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah

So take these BROKEN wings

The book of love will open up and let us in

Take these BROKEN wings
You've got to learn to fly
Learn to live and love so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up for us and let us in, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Ooh

Wow! Now that’s something for you, your momma & daddy to boast about! Can you imagine the pride your grandparents have when they speak about you to their friends?

Is the Susan B. Anthony coin still being minted?

I agree!

I was 1 of 3 children and we were all daughters. The life lessons/skills taught should not be geared toward sons, alone. I wish I would have been taught how to change a tire and prepare my own tax returns….. although I can’t recall any specific occasions, my GUESS is my father did change a flat tire or two. As for tax preparation, that annual obligation was given to a paid accountant. I do wish my mother would have held MANDATORY informal “cooking classes” for my sisters and demand I. Sadly, I DO NOT have the knowledge, skill or raw courage to undertake the cooking of a turkey and traditional Thanksgiving Day dinner!

Tom Jones, DELILAH

I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
I saw the flickering shadow of love on her blind
She was my woman
As she deceived me I watched and went out of my mind

My, my, my Delilah
WHY, WHY, WHY Delilah
I could see, that girl was no good for me
But I was lost like a slave that no man could free

At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting
I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

My, my, my Delilah
WHY, WHY, WHY Delilah
So before they come to break down the door
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take anymore

She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

My, my, my Delilah
WHY, WHY, WHY Delilah
So before they come to break down the door
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take anymore
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take anymore

The Doors, ALABAMA SONG (WHISKEY BAR)

Well, show me the way
To the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask WHY
Oh, don't ask WHY
Show me the way
To the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask WHY
Oh, don't ask WHY
For if we don't find
The next whiskey bar
I tell you we must die
I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you
I tell you we must die

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good old mama
And must have whiskey, oh, you know WHY
Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good old mama
And must have whiskey, oh, you know WHY
Yeah

Well, show me the way to the next little girl
Oh, don't ask WHY
Oh, don't ask WHY
Show me the way to the next little girl
Oh, don't ask WHY
Oh, don't ask WHY
For if we don't find
The next little girl
I tell you we must die
I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you
I tell you we must die

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good old mama
And must have whiskey, oh, you know WHY

Billy Joel, I GO TO EXTREMES

Call me a joker, call me a fool
Right at this moment I'm totally cool
Clear as a crystal, sharp as a knife
I feel like I'm in the prime of my life
Sometimes it feels like I'm going too fast
I don't know how long
This feeling will last
Maybe it's only tonight

Darling, I don't know
Why I go to extremes
Too high or too low
There ain't no in-betweens
And if I stand or I fall
It's all or nothing at all
Darling, I don't know
Why I go to extremes

Sometimes I'm tired, sometimes I'm shot
Sometimes I don't know
How much more I've got
Maybe I'm headed over the hill
Maybe I've set myself up for the kill
Tell me how much
Do you think you can take
Until the heart in you
Is starting to break?
Sometimes it feels like it will

Darling, I don't know
WHY I go to extremes
Too high or too low
There ain't no in-betweens
You can be sure when I'm gone
I won't be out there too long
Darling, I don't know
WHY I go to extremes

Out of the darkness, into the light
Leaving the scene of the crime
Either I'm wrong
Or I'm perfectly right every time
Sometimes I lie awake, night after night
Coming apart at the seams
Eager to please, ready to fight
WHY do I go to extremes?

And if I stand or I fall
It's all or nothing at all
Darling, I don't know
WHY I go to extremes

Oh, I don't know
WHY I go to extremes
Too high or too low
There ain't no in-betweens
You can be sure when I'm gone
I won't be out there too long
Darling, I don't know
WHY I go to extremes

I don't know WHY, I don't know why
I don't know WHY, I don't know why
I don't know WHY, I don't know why
Out of the dark, into the lights
Whether I'm wrong, perfectly right
I don't know WHY

I’m glad you found it as funny as I did!

Enjoy!

I think you and Lookatmine2 are generalizing too much about Walmart. I would classify Walmart as a “discount” store and a discount store will attract people with “discounted incomes”.

Malodorous!? Me, I probably would have just used “STINKY”.

You must have a “love” of words, too bad you never had the opportunity to interact with JustWill. JustWill….. I miss that guy!!

Bob Seger, BO DIDDLEY/WHO DO YOU LOVE

Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley have you heard
Mama gonna buy you a mockingbird
If that mockingbird don't sing
She gonna buy you a diamond ring
If that diamond ring don't shine
Baby gonna take it to a private eye
If that private eye can't see
He gonna have to come an talk to me

Said hey Bo Diddley
Hey now Bo Diddley
Hey Bo Diddley

I walked 47 miles of barbed wire
Use a cobra snake for a necktie
Got a brand new house on the roadside child
Made out of rattlesnake hide
Brand new chimney on top
Made out of human skulls
Come and take a little walk with me Arlene
Tell me who do you love
WHO do you love
WHO do you love
WHO do you love

Arlene took me by my hand
Said cool it Robert you know your my man
WHO do you love
WHO do you love
WHO do you love

Night was dark the sky was blue
Down the alley we was swingin' through

Lord I heard just what I seen
WHO do you love
WHO do you love
WHO do you love

Men at Work, WHO CAN IT BE NOW

WHO can it be knocking at my door?
Go away, don't come 'round here no more
Can't you see that it's late at night?
I'm very tired and I'm not feeling right
All I wish is to be alone
Stay away, don't you invade my home
Best off if you hang outside
Don't come in, I'll only run and hide

WHO can it be now?
WHO can it be now?
WHO can it be now?
WHO can it be now?

WHO can it be knocking at my door?
Make no sound, tip-toe across the floor
If he hears , he'll knock all day
I'll be trapped and here I'll have to stay
I've done no harm, I keep to myself
There's nothing wrong with my state of mental health
I like it here with my childhood friend
Here they come, those feelings again

WHO can it be now?
WHO can it be now?
WHO can it be now?
WHO can it be now?

Is it the men come to take me away?
Why do they follow me?
It's not the future that I can see
It's just my fantasy
Yeah

Oh, WHO can it be now?
WHO can it be now?
WHO can it be now?
WHO can it be now?

****

So roll up and see
How they r@pe the universe
How they've gone from bad to worse

YES!

Journey, LOVIN’, TOUCHIN’, SQUEEZIN’

You make me WEEPI and wanna die
Just when you said we'd try

Lovin', touchin', squeezin' each other
When I'm alone all by myself
You're out with someone else
Lovin', touchin', squeezin' each other

You're tearin' me apart
Every, every day
You're tearin' me apart
Oh, what can I say?
You're tearin' me apart

It won't be long, yes, till you're alone
When your lover, oh, he hasn't come home
Cause he's lovin', ooh, he's touchin',
He's squeezin' another

He's tearin' you apart
Every, every day
He's tearin' you apart
Oh, girl, what can you say?
Cause he's lovin', touchin' another
Now it's your turn girl to cry
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na

Chad and Jeremy, WILLOW WEEP FOR ME

Willow WEEP for me
Willow WEEP for me
Bend your branches green
Along the stream that runs to sea

Listen to my plea
Listen willow and WEEP for me

Gone my lover's dream
Lovely summer's dream
Gone and left me here
To WEEP my tears into the stream

Sad as I can be
Hear me willow and WEEP for me

Whisper to the wind
And say that love has sinned
Leave my heart a-breaking
And making a moan
Murmur to the night
To hide the starry light
So none will find me sighing
And crying all alone

WEEPIN' willow tree
WEEP in sympathy
Bend your branches down
Along the ground and cover me

When the shadows fall
Bend oh willow and WEEP for me

The word for Thursday, November 13, WEEP

Bob Seger, ROLL ME AWAY

Took a look down a westbound road,
right away I made my choice
Headed out to my big two-wheeler,
I was tired of my own voice
Took a bead on the northern plains
and just ROLLED that power on

Twelve hours out of Mackinaw City
stopped in a baHr to have a brew
Met a girl and we had a few drinks
and I told her what I'd decided to do
She looked out the window a long long moment
then she looked into my eyes
She didn't have to say a thing,
I knew what she was thinkin'

ROLL, ROLL me away,
won't you ROLL me away tonight
I too am lost, I feel double-crossed
and I'm sick of what's wrong and what's right
We never even said a word,
we just walked out and got on that bike
And we ROLLED
And we ROLLED clean out of sight

We ROLLED across the high plains
Deep into the mountains
Felt so good to me
Finally feelin' free

Somewhere along a high road
The air began to turn cold
She said she missed her home
I headed on alone

Stood alone on a mountain top,
starin' out at the Great Divide
I could go east, I could go west,
it was all up to me to decide
Just then I saw a young hawk flyin'
and my soul began to rise
And pretty soon
My heart was singin'

ROLL, ROLL me away,
I'm gonna ROLL me away tonight
Gotta keep ROLLIN, gotta keep ridin',
keep searchin' till I find what's right
And as the sunset faded
I spoke to the faintest first starlight
And I said next time
Next time
We'll get it right

Bob Seger, ROCK AND ROLL NEVER FORGETS

So you're a little bit older and a lot less bolder
Than you used to be
So you used to shake 'em down
But now you stop and think about your dignity
So now sweet sixteens turned thirty-one
You get to feelin' weary when the work days done
Well all you got to do is get up and into your kicks
If you're in a fix
Come back baby
Rock and ROLL Jnever forgets
You better get yourself a partner
Go down to the concert or the local bar
Check the local newspapers
Chances are you won't have to go too far
Yeah the rafters will be ringing cause the beat's so strong
The crowd will be swaying and singing along
And all you got to do is get in into the mix
If you need a fix
Come back baby
Rock and ROLL never forgets
Oh the bands still playing it loud and lean
Listen to the guitar player making it scream
All you got to do is just make that scene tonight
Heh tonight

Well now sweet sixteens turned thirty-one
Feel a little tired feeling under the gun
Well all Chuck's children are out there playing his licks
Get into your kicks
Come back baby
Rock 'n ROLL never forgets
Said you can come back baby
Rock 'n ROLL never forgets

Bob Seger, OLD TIME ROCK & ROLL

Just take those old records off the shelf
I'll sit and listen to 'em by myself
Today's music ain't got the same soul
I like that old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Don't try to take me to a disco
You'll never even get me out on the floor
In ten minutes I'll be late for the door
I like that old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Still like that old-time rock 'n' ROLL
That kind of music just soothes my soul
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Won't go to hear 'em play a tango
I'd rather hear some blues or funky old soul
There's only one sure way to get me to go
Start playing old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Call me a relic, call me what you will
Say I'm old-fashioned, say I'm over the hill
Today's music ain't got the same soul
I like that old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Still like that old-time rock 'n' ROLL
That kind of music just soothes the soul
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Still like that old-time rock 'n' ROLL
That kind of music just soothes my soul
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Still like that old-time rock 'n' ROLL
That kind of music just soothes my soul
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Still like that old-time rock 'n' ROLL
That kind of music just soothes my soul
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Still like that old-time rock 'n' ROLL

Love this!
