Grand Funk Railroad, SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL

I don't need a whole lots of money,
I don't need a big fine car.
I got everything that a man could want,
I got more than I could ask for.
I don't have to run around,
I don't have to stay out all night.
'Cause I got me a sweet... a sweet, lovin' woman,
And she knows just how to treat me right.

Well my baby, she's alright,
Well my baby, she's clean out-of-sight.
Don't you know that she's... she's some KIND of wonderful.
She's some KIND of wonderful... yes she is, she's,
She's some KIND of wonderful, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahhh...

When I hold her in my arms,
You know she sets my soul on fire.
Oooh, when my baby kisses me,
My heart becomes filled with desire.
When she wraps her lovin' arms around me,
About drives me out of my mind.
Yeah, when my baby kisses me,
Chills run up and down my spine.

My baby, she's alright,
My baby, she's clean out-of-sight.
Don't you know that she is... she's some KIND of wonderful.
She's some KIND of wonderful... yes she is,
She's some KIND of wonderful, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahhh...

Now is there anybody, got a sweet little woman like mine?
There got to be somebody, got a, got a sweet little woman like mine? Yeah!
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness? Yeah...
Can I get a witness? Ohhh...
Can I get a witness? Yeah...
Can I get a witness? Yes.

I'm talkin', talkin' 'bout my baby. Yeah.
She's some KIND of wonderful.
Talkin' 'bout my baby.
She's some KIND of wonderful.
Talkin' 'bout my baby.
She's some KIND of wonderful.

She's some KIND of wonderful.
I'm talkin' about my baby, my baby, my baby.

She's some KIND of wonderful.

Hey, the brooms on the bottom of the shopping carts is a marvelous idea, you should trademark/copyright/patent (whatever the terminology is) your idea!

Self service checkouts, ATM’s, Ticketmaster, as well as the kiosks in McDonald’s were created for folks who want to get in and out and don’t want to wait in long lines and with that implementation, did away with a human being! Oi!



By bella! at 06,Nov,25 10:42
Thanks for your response.

I don’t like to delete any gift for any reason however, admittedly I have…. There’s been times that I have been short on points, didn’t want to buy points and decided to destroy a gift, sent from years ago, for the points I “needed” at that time.

As far as hiding my gifts, I have what I have and they were sent by so many different members for so many different reasons. I’m sure I decided to delete some negative gifts but there came a time that I had clarity in my thinking; why delete something that I “earned”?

Robert Palmer, SOME LIKE IT HOT

We want to multiply. Are you gonna do it?
I know you're qualified. Are you gonna do it?
Don't be so circumscribed. Are you gonna do it?
Just get yourself untied. Are you gonna do it?

Feel the HEAT pushing you to decide
Feel the HEAT burning you up, ready or not

Some like it hot, and some sweat when the HEAT is on
Some feel the HEAT and decide that they can't go on
Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try
Some like it hot, so let's turn up the HEAT 'til we fry

The girl is at your side. Are you gonna do it?
She wants to be your bride. Are you gonna do it?
She wants to multiply. Are you gonna do it?
I know you won't be satisfied until you do it

Feel the HEATH pushing you to decide
Feel the HEAT burning you up, ready or not

Some like it hot, and some sweat when the HEAT is on
Some feel the HEAT and decide that they can't go on
Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try
Some like it hot, so let's turn up the HEAT 'til we fry

Feel the HEAT pushing you to decide
Feel the HEAT burning you up, ready or not

Some like it hot, and some sweat when the HEAT is on
Some feel the heat and decide that they can't go on
Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try
Some like it hot, so let's turn up the HEAT 'til we fry

Some like it hot, some like it hot
Some like it hot, some like it hot
Some like it hot, some like it hot
Some like it hot, some like it hot

Glen Frey, THE HEAT IS ON

The HEAT is on, on the street
Inside your head, on every beat
And the beat's so loud, deep inside
The pressure's high, just to stay alive
'Cause the HEAT is on

Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho
Caught up in the action
I've been looking out for you
Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho
Tell me can you feel it
Tell me can you feel it
Tell me can you feel it

The HEAT is on, the HEAT WILL is on
The HEAT is on
Oh it's on the street
The HEAT is... on

Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho
Caught up in the action
I've been looking out for you
Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho
Tell me can you feel it
Tell me can you feel it
Tell me can you feel it

The HEAT is on, the HEAT is on (oh yeah)
The HEAT is on (burnin' burnin' burnin')
Oh it's on the street
The HEAT is... on

The shadows are on the darker side
Behind those doors, it's a wilder ride
You can make a break, you can win or lose
That's a chance you take, when the HEAT’s on you
When the HEAT is on

Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho
Caught up in the action
I've been looking out for you
Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho
Tell me can you feel it
Tell me can you feel it
Tell me can you feel it

The HEAT is on, the heat is on (oh yeah)
The HEAT is on (burnin' burnin' burnin')
It's on the street (woo-hoo)
The HEAT and is on (I can feel the fire)
The HEAT is on (Flames are burnin' higher)
The HEAT is on (Baby can't you feel it?)
Yeah it's on the street (woo-hoo)
The HEAT is on (I can feel the fire)
The HEAT is on (Flames are burnin' higher)

I enjoy scrolling through YouTube and find many videos that show police slapping handcuffs on folks who are being “detained”. Is it possible that Walmart has the right to detain folks, until police arrive, in locked cages when they/Walmart has video evidence, that the subject was observed and or caught on camera concealing merchandise or skip scanning?



By bella! at 04,Nov,25 20:02
I wonder if that move is even possible?



By bella! at 04,Nov,25 19:53
Thank you for your response and your thoughts on why members do what they do. Yes, the feature has been around for a long, long time!



By bella! at 04,Nov,25 13:57
And another good tune! 👍🏻👍🏻



By bella! at 04,Nov,25 13:56
Good tune! 👍🏻



By bella! at 04,Nov,25 08:13
My apologies, the term “hide” was misleading or incorrect.

There is a box at the top of my gift page that I could ✅ and by doing so, would deny other members access to viewing my gifts. In my mind, those gifts are now hidden from view of others.

The word for Tuesday, November 4, HEAT



By bella! at 04,Nov,25 02:53
MY THEORY, because a premium paid member inquired about the possibility of that option and admin obliged. Premium paid members can be “invisible”, premium paid members can make their points “invisible” to others and premium paid members can hide their gifts.

I opt to use the invisibility feature for myself and for my points. As a premium paid member, I realty don’t see any perk to hiding my gifts and wondered whether anyone was able offer rationale on why they choose to hide their gifts.

Don’t do anything stupid or foolish at Walmart as apparently they now have in store jail cells.

Toto, HOLD THE LINE

It's not in the way that you hold me
It's not in the way you say you care
It's not in the way you've been treating my friends
It's not in the way that you stayed 'til the end
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the LINE
Love isn't always on time
Hold the LINE
Love isn't always on time

It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the LINE
Love isn't always on time
Hold the LINE
Love isn't always on time

It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the LINE
Love isn't always on time
Hold the LINE
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time
Hold the LINE
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time

I question whether the majority of the world’s young people have been taught cursive writing skills. What do you think their signature line might look like…….X ?



By bella! at 02,Nov,25 11:20
We’re off to what I anticipated, the time change is going to screw me up for a few days. Yeah, I woke up shortly after 5a (yesterday it would have been 6a) and I will struggle to stay awake until 11 or 11:30p because my body knows that yesterday it was 12/12:30a.

Don Henley, BOYS OF SUMMER

Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach

I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm driving by your house
Though I know you're not home

But I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be STRONG
After the boys of summer have gone

I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
Remember how you made me crazy?
Remember how I made you scream
Now I don't understand what happened to our love
But babe, I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of

I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
I see you walking real slow and you're smilin' at e veryone
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

Out on the road today, I saw a DEADHEAD sticker on a Cadillac
A little voice inside my head said, "Don't look back. You can never look back"
I thought I knew what love was
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go but-

I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be STRONG
After the boys of summer have gone

I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby
I can tell you my love for you will still be STRONG
After the boys of summer have gone

Rod Stewart, FOREVER YOUNG

May the good Lord be with you
Down every road you roam
And may sunshine and happiness
Surround you when you're far from home
And may you grow to be proud
Dignified and true
And do unto others
As you'd have done to you

Be courageous and be brave
And in my heart, you'll always stay
Forever young, forever young
Forever young, forever young

May good fortune be with you
May your guiding light be STRONG
Build a stairway to Heaven
With a prince or a vagabond

And may you never love in vain
And in my heart you will remain
Forever young, forever young
Forever young, forever young
Forever young, forever young
Yeah

And when you finally fly away
I'll be hoping that I served you well
For all the wisdom of a lifetime
No one can ever tell

But whatever road you choose
I'm right behind you, win or lose
Forever young, forever young
Forever young, forever young
Forever young, forever young
For-Forever young, forever young

I hope this video doesn’t cheese anyone off…

We had these damn (yes, damn) balance beams, as well as uneven parallel bars, pommel horse back when I was in high school. I never aspired to be a Simone Biles or whoever so this equipment was totally unnecessary in my world.

Look at this toddler, she doesn’t appear to be more than 3 years old, no fricken’ fear!

That’s why the merchants are doing what they’re doing; they are passing THEIR charge along to the consumer. I get it, I just don’t like it.



By bella! at 02,Nov,25 00:07
This was my logic from a hundred years ago but apparently I’m going to have to revamp my thinking for the next hundred years. My “motto” was why pay for something now when I can pay for it later. I know that type of thinking gets many people in trouble but it WORKED for me until a year ago. Basically I USE two credit cards and I pay them off every month. And because I have the type of credit cards that I have, every month my credit card(s) give me back up to 3% which translates to $80 + for paying the bill in full. I look at it as being free money.

There are plenty of people who charge, charge, charge and only pay their minimum payment and are being charged 28% interest OR MORE. They are in debt up to their eyeballs and the 3% “convenience fee” is going to hurt even more.



By bella! at 01,Nov,25 23:52
I’m with you!

I want to walk first thing in the morning but have to wait until almost 7:30am for it to be reasonably light. Yep, I don’t want to wander upon a gator or a snake! Oh, hell NO!

Why do premium paid members choose to hide the gifts they receive?

MY THEORY WHICH IS A GUESS is because they destroy their gifts to convert to additional points!

You’re darn skippy it is bitterly cold when there’s snow up to your hoo-ha, especially days when you’re not wearing panties! Oh my!

Hey, dgraff, the morning was very cool but it’s currently a pleasant and sunny 77!

This “old people” goes to Florida because she doesn’t want to deal with the cold and snow up to her hoo-ha!



By bella! at 01,Nov,25 12:14
Hey, dgraff and t-rex, it was a nippy 52 earlier today when I woke up and it’s currently only 54 degrees here in Florida!

It is a cool start however we are projected to reach the high of 77!

By bella! at 01,Nov,25 12:08
Old school, YES, check writing, HECK NO! In most instances, writing a check normally translates to requiring a postage stamp and I am too cheap in that respect! I really only write six checks per year 1) summer property taxes and another check for winter property taxes 2) every 90 days, a check for water/sewerage/refuse. Perhaps there is way to pay those bills without writing a check, I haven’t explored that possibility.

In the past, I’ve charged almost everything and when it’s time to pay, I transfer funds from my checking account to my credit card account. Easy, breezy!



By bella! at 01,Nov,25 09:55
Thank you, I now understand and agree that the regular shops have not YET added an additional 3% fee if a credit card is used!

Effective November 15, my insurance company is charging the 3% fee. I lucked out because my auto and home owners renewal effective date is November 1, woo hoo! I’m a bit skeptical about giving any company my checking account and routing numbers or allowing the same to store my debit card numbers on file.
