The word for Thursday, May 15, TAKE

This is really sad, a 7 and 9 year old armed with a gun! Their father is incarcerated and there’s some type of documentation that police have been called to their house 50 times! It’s a relief that no one was hurt!

I looked for more information on this article and man. Although additional articles state he resides in Melvindale, Melvindale is only 3.2 miles away from Dearborn, MI and if I’m not mistaken, Dearborn has the greatest population of Middle Eastern folks outside of their Middle Eastern countries. Golly, it’s comfort to know that terrorists are planning attacks on TACOM only 40 miles away from me!

I don’t believe that I’m “afraid” to grow old alone, I am quite content. I do what I want to do and when I want to do it. Sometimes I think about my life and it saddens me when I come home and no one there to give me a hug or ask me how my day was. Sometimes I wish there was someone to discuss different matters with that would help me in making decisions but ultimately, I like making my own decisions.

Hey, dgraff, I’ve my haven’t had to pee outside in a hundred years! Those days are far behind me….drinking too much, not being able to make it home and needing to scope things out so I could pop a quick squat!

Supertramp, BLODDY WELL RIGHT

So you think your schooling's phony
I guess it's hard not to agree
You say it all depends on money
And who is in your family tree
RIGHT (RIGHT), you're bloody well RIGHT
You got a bloody RIGHT to say
Right, you're bloody well right
You know you got a right to say
Ha, ha, you're bloody well right
You know you're right to say
Yeah, yeah, you're bloody well right
You know you're right to say
Me, I don't care anyway
Write your problems down in detail
Take them to a higher place
You've had your cry, no, I shouldn't say wail
In the meantime hush your face
Right (quite right) you're bloody well right
You got a bloody right to say
Right, you're bloody well right
You know you got a right to say
Ha, ha, you're bloody well right
You know you're right to say
Yeah, yeah, you're bloody well right
You know you got a right to say
You got a bloody right to say
You got a bloody right to say
You got a bloody right to say
You got a bloody right to say, yeah

Rolling Stoned, HONKY TONK WOMEN

I met a gin soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me RIGHT across her shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind

It's the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

I laid a divorcee in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady then she covered me in roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind

It's the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

It's the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

It’s really quite sad that that immature, poor excuse of a human being FREDDY aka PITBULL isn’t able to grow up and act like a “grownup”.

I just visited Sir-Skittles page to respond to a recent message and couldn’t help but notice FREDDY’s immature and childish post left on Skittles wall and directed at me. Back story, earlier in the month Skittles had sent me a gift and I reciprocated. Along with my gift, I posted a short message on his wall. Sadly, along comes FREDDY, the poor excuse of a human being, and posts the following message directly above my message;

PITBULL wrote (09,May,25 13:59):
fuck you bella!


I’m quite surprised and disappointed that Skittles supports that type of behavior. I have not said squat to or about FREDDY in probably one year.

The Beatles, I’LL FOLLOW THE SUN

One day you'll look to see I've gone
For tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun
Some day you'll know I was the one
But tomorrow may rain, so
I'll FOLLOW the sun
And now the time has come
And so my love I must go
And though I lose a friend
In the end you'll know
Oooh
One day you'll find that I have gone
But tomorrow may rain, so
I'll FOLLOW the sun
Yes, tomorrow may rain, so
I'll FOLLOW the sun
And now the time has come
And so my love I must go
And though I lose a friend
In the end you'll know
Oooh
One day you'll find that I have gone
But tomorrow may rain, so
I'll FOLLOW the sun

The Who, I’M FREE

I'M FREE- I'm free,
And freedom tastes of reality,
I'm free-I'm free,
AN' I'm waiting for you to follow me
If I told you what it takes
To reach the highest high,
You'd laugh and say 'nothing's that simple'
But you've been told many times before
Messiahs pointed to the door
And no one had the guts to leave the temple!
I'm free-I'm free
And freedom tastes of reality
I'm free-I'm free
And I'm waiting for you to follow me
How can we FOLLOW?
How can we FOLLOW?

The word for Tuesday, May 13, FOLLOW

Roy Orbison, PRETTY PAPER

The pretty PAPER, pretty ribbons of blue
Pretty PAPER , pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
Pretty pencils to write "I love you"
Pretty PAPER , pretty ribbons of blue
Crowded street, busy feet hustle by him
Downtown shoppers, Christmas is nigh
There he sits all alone on the sidewalk
Hoping that you won't pass him by
Should you stop, better not, much too busy
You're in a hurry, my how time does fly
In the distance the ringing of laughter
And in the midst of the laughter he cries
Pretty PAPER , pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
Pretty pencils to write "I love you"
Pretty PAPER , pretty ribbons of blue

The Beatles, BACK IN THE U.S.S.R.

Well, yeah

On the way the PAPER bag was on my knee
Man, I had a dreadful flight
I'm back in the U.S.S.R
You don't know how lucky you are, boy
Back in the U.S.S.R
Been away so long, I hardly knew the place
Gee, it's good to be back home
Leave it 'til tomorrow to unpack my case
Honey, disconnect the phone
I'm back in the U.S.S.R
You don't know how lucky you are, boy
Back in the U.S
Back in the U.S
Back in the U.S.S.R

Oh, come on!
Woo! (Hey)
Woo! (Yeah)
Woo! (Yeah)

Let me hear your balalaikas ringing out
Come and keep your comrade warm
I'm back In the U.S.S.R
You don't know how lucky you are, boy
Back in the U.S.S.R
Oh, let me tell you, honey
Hey, I'm back

Hey, it's so good to be home
Yeah, back In the U.S.S.R

You seem to ALWAYS post great tunes!

Very thoughtful, very cool!

Neil Young, DOWN BY THE RIVER

Be on my side. I'll be on your side, baby.
There is no reason for you to hide.
It's so hard for me staying here all alone,
When you could be taking me for a ride.

She could drag me over the rainbow,
Send me away.

Down by the RIVER ,
I shot my baby.
Down by the RIVER .

Dead, ooh, ooh, shot her dead, ooh.

You take my hand, I'll take your hand.
Together we may get away.
This much madness is too much sorrow.
It's impossible to make it today.

She could drag me over the rainbow,
Send me away.

Down by the RIVER ,
I shot my baby.
Down by the RIVER.

Dead, dead, ooh, ooh, shot her dead, shot her dead.

Be on my side. I'll be on your side.
There is no reason for you to hide.
It's so hard for me staying here all alone,
When you could be taking me for a ride.

She could drag me over the rainbow,
Send me away.

Down by the RIVER ,
I shot my baby.
Down by the RIVER .

Down by the RIVER ,
I shot my baby.
Down by the RIVER .

Down by the RIVER ,
I shot my baby.

Tina Turner, PROUD MARY

[Tina:]
You know, every now and then
I think you might like to hear something from us
Nice and easy but there's just one thing
You see, we never ever do nothing nice and easy
We always do it nice and rough
So we're going to take the beginning of this song
And do it easy
Then we're going to do the finish rough
This is the way we do 'Proud Mary'

[Ike:]
Left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way that things might have been

[Ike and Tina:]
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the RIVER
Listen to the story

And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way that things might have been

Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling yeah
Rolling
Rolling on the river
Rolling on the river

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Ya know I pumped a lot of 'tane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Until I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen

A very interesting story! It’s amazing what arrangements and/or accommodations that countries will make with each other. So I wonder whether “that area” of the Ottawa Civic Hospital is still considered Dutch soil?

Because the early bird catches the worm! You see what time I posted!!

On my drive home from Florida I tracked my spending for gas specifically. At the time of this post, I cannot recall the exact cities that I fueled up in however I drove from Florida to Alabama then through Georgia, Tennessee, to Kentucky and from Kentucky to Ohio then into Michigan. I paid anywhere from $2.39(at the beginning of my trek), then there was $2.47, $2.75 and in Blufton, OH, I paid $3.08 at Circle K. This last tank of fuel took me home to Michigan where at “home” gas is $3.19!

Lynyrd Skynyrd, SWEET HOME ALABAMA

They got loose to you
Here it comes
Oh, whoa-whoa
Big wheels keep on turnin'
Carry me home to see my kin
Singin' songs about the Southland
I miss Alabamy once again, and I think it's a sin, I said
Well, I heard Mr. Young sing about her
Well, I heard old Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around, anyhow
Sweet HOME Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet HOME Alabama
Lord, I'm comin' HOME to you
One thing I wanna tell you
In Birmingham, they love the governor (boo, boo, boo!)
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me, uh-uh
Does your conscience bother you? Tell the truth
Sweet HOME Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet HOME Alabama (oh, my baby)
Lord, I'm comin' HOME to you (here I come, Alabama)
Speak your mind
Ah-ah-ah (can you feel that?), Alabama
Ah-ah-ah, Alabama
Ah-ah-ah, Alabama
Ah-ah-ah, Alabama
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they've been known to pick a song or two (yes, they do)
Lord, they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feelin' blue, now how 'bout you?
Sweet HOME Alabama (oh)
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet HOME Alabama
Lord, I'm comin' HOME to you
Sweet HOME Alabama (HOME, sweet HOME , baby)
Where the skies are so blue (and the governor's, too)
Sweet HOME Alabama (Lord, yeah)
Lord, I'm comin' HOME to you (whoo, whoa, yeah, oh)
Alright, brother, now
Wait one minute
Oh-oh, sweet Alabama
Thank you

Today, there is a 34 degree difference between where I’m at versus what I left. Yep, it is 61 degrees at home in Michigan versus 95 degrees in LaBelle and I’m cold!

You’re right about that!

When I was in Florida, I was returning from Cape Coral and making a left turn from whatever road I was on and onto SR80. I went wide rather than tight not knowing that 2 lanes were allowed to make the left turn. Did I almost cause an accident? Yes. Was it intentional? No. Did it cause the guy that I accidentally cut off to swerve to avoid a collision? Yes. Did he handle the almost accident well? I don’t think so because when I hit my brakes I allowed him the opportunity to “recover” and get in front of me. Yeah, he used that opportunity to reduce his speed to “force” me to choose to go around him so he could cut me off OR in his choice, he just went super slow and from time to time, slammed on his brakes to show me how pissed he was…… NO, I believe people are fucked up, probably even in the Netherlands, too!

And YOU believe the driver of the minivan could have been justified?

Maybe you would be able to “justify” using your fists to assault a woman because she did something to anger you? After all, women are seen in a different light than men, right? I don’t how anyone driving a minivan felt justified in ramming into a motorcycle/motorcyclist (unless the motorcyclist was brandishing a gun and the driver of the minivan felt that was his only option).

Canned Heat, ON THE ROAD AGAIN

Well, I'm so tired of crying
But I'm out on the ROAD again
I'm on the ROAD again
Well, I'm so tired of crying
But I'm out on the ROAD again
I'm on the ROAD again

I ain't got no woman
Just to call my special friend

You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow

I didn't have no payroll
Not even no place to go

And my dear mother left me
When I was quite young
When I was quite young
And my dear mother left me
When I was quite young
When I was quite young

She said, "Lord, have mercy
On my wicked son."

Take a hint from me, mama
Please don't you cry no more
Don't you cry no more
Take a hint from me, mama
Please don't you cry no more
Don't you cry no more

'Cause it's soon one morning
Down the ROAD I'm going

But I ain't going down
That long old lonesome ROAD
All by myself
But I ain't going down
That long old lonesome ROAD
All by myself

I can't carry you, baby
Gonna carry somebody else

It has been my hope that posters can have an opinion while still maintaining civility toward others. With that said, I did not find your initial post to be offensive however something struck a sour note with sherryann.

Yes, sometimes the head and heart can conflict but I’m having a difficult time processing and understanding loving someone who has commits an egregious crime; murder, r@pe*, molestation, etc. I’m really trying to be open minded without judging you.

What in the fuck is wrong with mankind!?

The word for Thursday, May 7, TIRED

Rachel Platten, FIGHT SONG

Like a small boat on the ocean
Sending big waves into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion
And all those things I didn't say
Were wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
This is my fight SONG (hey)
Take back my life SONG (hey)
Prove I'm alright SONG (hey, ha)
My power's turned on (hey)
Starting right now, I'll be strong (hey)
I'll play my fight SONG (hey)
And I don't really care if nobody else believes (ha)
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
Losing friends and I'm chasing sleep
Everybody's worried 'bout me
In too deep, say I'm in too deep (I'm in too deep)
And it's been two years, I miss my home
But there's a fire burning in my bones
Still believe, yeah, I still believe
And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream 'em loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
This is my fight SONG (hey)
Take back my life SONG (hey)
Prove I'm alright SONG (hey, ha)
My power's turned on (hey)
Starting right now, I'll be strong (hey)
I'll play my fight SONG (hey)
And I don't really care if nobody else believes (ha)
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
A lot of fight left in me
Like a small boat on the ocean
Sending big waves into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion
This is my fight SONG (hey)
Take back my life SONG (hey)
Prove I'm alright SONG (hey)
My power's turned on (hey)
Starting right now, I'll be strong (I'll be strong)
I'll play my fight SONG (hey)

No, I've still got a lot of fight left in me

Dang good tune!

I ❤️ this song, I particularly enjoy the harmony!

The word for Monday, April 5, PEACE

It’s been approximately 6 weeks and I still regret switching from my android to Apple phone. I hate this damn phone!

Martha and The Vandellas, NOWHERE TO RUN

Nowhere to RUN to, baby (nowhere to RUN, nowhere to hide)
Nowhere to hide (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Got nowhere to RUN to, baby (nowhere to RUN, nowhere to hide)
Nowhere to hide (ooh-ooh-ooh)
It's not love I'm a-RUNNING from
Just the heartbreak I know will come
'Cause I know you're no good for me (you're no good)
But you've become a part of me
Everywhere I go, your face I see
Every step I take, you take with me, yeah
Nowhere to RUN to, baby (nowhere to run, nowhere to hide)
Nowhere to hide (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Got nowhere to RUN to, baby (nowhere to RUN, nowhere to hide)
Nowhere to hide (ooh-ooh-ooh)
I know you're no good for me
But free of you I'll never be, no
Each night as I, as I sleep
Into my heart you creep
I wake up feeling sorry I met you
Hoping soon that I'll forget you
When I look in the mirror to comb my hair
I see your face just a-smiling there
Nowhere to RUN (nowhere to RUN)
Nowhere to hide from you, babe (nowhere to hide, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Got nowhere to run to, baby (nowhere to RUN, nowhere to hide)
Nowhere to hide (ooh-ooh)
I know you're no good for me
But you've become a part of me
How can I fight a lover
That shouldn't be
When it's so deep, so deep
Deep inside of me
My love reaches so high, I can't get over it
It's so wide, I can't get around it, no
Nowhere to RUN (nowhere to RUN)
Nowhere to hide from you, babe (nowhere to hide, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Just can't get away from you, baby (nowhere to RUN, nowhere to hide)
No matter how I try (ooh-ooh-ooh)
I know you're no good for me
But free of you I'll never be
Nowhere to RUN to, baby (nowhere to RUN, nowhere to hide)
Nowhere to hide (nowhere to RUN, nowhere to hide)
Got nowhere to RUN to, baby (nowhere to RUN, nowhere to hide)
Nowhere to hide (nowhere to RUN, nowhere to hide)
Got nowhere to RUN
Got nowhere to hide

Bob Seger, AGAINST THE WIND

It seems like yesterday
But it was long ago
Janey was lovely she was the queen of my nights
There in the darkness with the radio playing low, and
And the secrets that we shared
The mountains that we moved
Caught like a wildfire out of control
'Til there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove
And I remember what she said to me
How she swore that it never would end
I remember how she held me oh-so-tight
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then
Against the wind
We were RUNNIN’ against the wind
We were young and strong, we were RUNNIN' against the wind
The years rolled slowly past
And I found myself alone
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I found myself further and further from my home, and I
Guess I lost my way
There were oh-so-many roads
I was living to RUN and RUNNING to live
Never worried about paying or even how much I owed
Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time
Breaking all of the rules that would bend
I began to find myself searching
Searching for shelter again and again
Against the wind
A little something against the wind
I found myself seeking shelter against the wind
Well those drifter's days are past me now
I've got so much more to think about
Deadlines and commitments
What to leave in, what to leave out
Against the wind
I'm still RUNNIN' against the wind
I'm older now but still RUNNIN ' against the wind
Well I'm older now and still RUNNIN'
Against the wind
Against the wind
Against the wind
Still RUNNIN' (against the wind)
I'm still RUNNIN' against the wind
(Against the wind) I'm still RUNNIN'
(Against the wind)
I'm still RUNNIN' against the wind
(Against the wind) still RUNNIN'
(Against the wind) RUNNIN' against the wind RUNNIN' against the wind
(Against the wind) see the young man RUN
(Against the wind) watch the young man RUN
(Against the wind) watch the young man RUNNIN'
(Against the wind) he'll be RUNNIN' against the wind
(Against the wind) let the cowboys ride
(Against the wind) aah
(Against the wind) let the cowboys ride
(Against the wind) they'll be ridin' against the wind
(Against the wind) against the wind
(Against the wind) ridin' against the wind...

Tom Petty, RUNNIN’ DOWN A DREAM

It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
I had the radio on, I was drivin'
Trees went by, me and Del were singin'
Little runaway
I was flyin'

Yeah, RUNNIN' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
RUNNIN' down a dream

I felt so good, like anything was possible
Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
The last three days the rain was unstoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine

Yeah, RUNNIN' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
RUNNIN' down a dream

I rolled on, the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down to make some time
There's something good waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever's mine

I'm RUNNIN' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
RUNNIN' down a dream
Yeah, I'm RUNNIN' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
I'm RUNNIN’ down a dream

Jimi Hendrix, THE WIND CRIES MARY

After all the jacks are in their boxes
And the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness
Staggering on down the street
Footprints dressed in red
And the wind whispers
"Mary"
A broom is drearily sweeping
Up the broken pieces
Of yesterday's life
Somewhere, a queen is weeping
Somewhere
A king has no wife
And the wind, it CRIES
"Mary"
(Instrumental)
The traffic lights, they turn blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sags downstream
'Cause the life that lived is dead
And the wind screams
"Mary"
Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past?
And with this crutch
Its old age and its wisdom
It whispers, "No, this will be the last"
And the wind CRIES
"Mary"

To know,know, know you is to love, love, love you. And I do……

The Four Seasons, BIG GIRLS DON’T CRY

Big girls don't CRY
Big girls don't CRY

Big girls don't CRY
(They don't CRY)
Big girls don't CRY
(Who said they don't CRY?)

My girl said goodbye
(My oh my)
My girl didn't CRY
(I wonder why?)

(Silly boy) Told my girl we had to break up
(Silly boy) Hoped that she would call my bluff
(Silly boy) When she said to my surprise
"Big girls don't CRY"

Big girls don't CRY
(They don't CRY)
Big girls don't CRY
(Who said they don't CRY?)

(Maybe) I was cruel
(I was cruel)
Baby, I'm a fool
(I'm such a fool)

(Silly girl) Shame on you, your mama said
(Silly girl) Shame on you, you're cryin' in bed
(Silly girl) Shame on you, you told a lie
Big girls do CRY

Big girls don't CRY
(They don't CRY)
Big girls don't CRY
(That's just an alibi)

Big girls don't CRY
Big girls don't CRY
Big girls don't CRY
Big girls don't CRY
Big girls don't CRY

Janis Joplin, CRY BABY

CRY baby, CRY baby, CRY baby,
Honey, welcome back home.

I know she told you,
Honey I know she told you that she loved you
Much more than I did,
But all I know is that she left you,
And you swear that you just don't know why,
But you know, honey I'll always,
I'll always be around if you ever want me
Come on and CRY, CRY baby, CRY baby, CRY baby,
Oh honey, welcome back home.

Don't you know, honey,
Ain't nobody ever gonna love you
The way I try to do ?
Who'll take all your pain,
Honey, your heartache, too
And if you need me, you know
That I'll always be around if you ever want me
Come on and CRY, CRY baby, CRY baby, CRY baby,
Oh daddy, like you always saying to do.

And when you walk around the world, babe,
You said you'd try to look for the end of the road,
You might find out later that the road'll end in Detroit,
Honey, the road'll even end in Kathmandu.
You can go all around the world
Trying to find something to do with your life, baby,
When you only gotta do one thing well,
You only gotta do one thing well to make it in this world, babe.
You got a woman waiting for you there,
All you ever gotta do is be a good man one time to one woman
And that'll be the end of the road, babe,
I know you got more tears to share, babe,
So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
And CRY, CRY baby, CRY baby, CRY baby.

And if you ever feel a little lonely, dear,
I want you to come on, come on to your mama now,
And if you ever want a little love of a woman
Come on and baby baby baby babe babe baby now
CRY baby yeah.

I must say that I find it odd that you hope to rely upon others to have saved what you, yourself should have saved……. I wish you much luck in your search!

Yes, sad indeed! Sometime on May 2, 2025, member #733545, CaveMan, deleted his profile.

If you are an animal lover, this is a rescue that is worthy of your attention and financial support.

Hmmmmm….. just an f.y.i., you unnecessarily created an entirely new Forum thread requesting help in deleting a blog. You received two responses. As the “owner” of a Forum thread, system automatically notifies you when member(s) post in your thread. With that said, seems peculiar that you’ve been online, you’ve received system generated notifications that posts were made in your thread yet you have not acknowledged. Alrighty then!

I think Jamie needs some love.

YIKES! Who would have thought that water, honey and a microwave would be an explosive combination!?

Thanks, phart!
