Is the Susan B. Anthony coin still being minted?



By bella! at 16,Nov,25 05:51
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 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”.



By bella! at 14,Nov,25 11:44
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?

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

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

The Beatles, GET BACK


Jo Jo was a man who thought he was a loner
But he knew it couldn't last
Jo Jo left his home in Tucson, Arizona
For some California grass

Get back, get back
Get back to WHERE you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to WHERE you once belonged
Get back Jo Jo, yeah

Get back, get back
Get back to WHERE you once belonged
Get back, woh, get back
Get back to WHERE you once belonged
Get back, Jo

Oh, yeah
Get back

Sweet Loretta Martin thought she was a woman
But she was another man
All the girls around her say she's got it coming
But she gets it while she can

Oh, get back, get back
Get back to WHERE you once belonged
Oh, get back, get back
Get back to WHERE you once belonged
Get back, Loretta
Get back home
Come on
Come on

Oh, come on, back home

Your mommy's waiting for you
Wearing her high-heel shoes
And her low-neck sweater
Get back, Loretta
Yeah

Oh
Oh, get back
Oh, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Oh, get back, yeah, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Whoo

The Beatles, ELEANOR RIGBY

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church WHERE a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
WHERE do they all come from?
All the lonely people
WHERE do they all belong?

Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?

All the lonely people
WHERE do they all come from?
All the lonely people
WHERE do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
(Ah, look at all the lonely people)
WHERE do they all come from?
All the lonely people
(Ah, look at all the lonely people)
WHERE do they all belong?

Simon & Garfunkel, HOMEWARD BOUND

I'm sitting in the railway station.
Got a ticket for my destination.
On a tour of one-night stands
my suitcase and guitar in hand.
And every stop is neatly planned
for a poet and a one-man band.

Homeward bound,
I wish I was homeward bound,
Home WHERE my thought's escaping,
Home WHERE my music's playing,
Home WHERE my love lies waiting silently for me.

Every day's an endless stream
Of cigarettes and magazines.
And each town looks the same to me,
the movies and the factories
And every stranger's face I see
reminds me that I long to be,

Homeward bound,
I wish I was homeward bound,
Home WHERE my thought's escaping,
Home WHERE my music's playing,
Home WHERE my love lies waiting silently for me.

Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
I'll play the game and pretend.
But all my words come back to me
in shades of mediocrity
Like emptiness in harmony
I need someone to comfort me.

Homeward bound,
I wish I was homeward bound,
Home WHERE my thought's escaping,
Home WHERE my music's playing,
Home WHERE my love lies waiting silently for me.
Silently for me.

Elvis, ALL SHOOK UP

A WELL I bless my soul
What's wrong with me?
I'm itching like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I'm actin' wild as a bug
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah!

WELL, my hands are shaky and my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck?
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah!

WELL, please don't ask me what's on my mind
I'm a little mixed up, but I'm feelin' fine
When I'm near that girl that I love best
My heart beats so it scares me to death!

She touched my hand what a chill I got
Her lips are like a volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say she's my buttercup
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!

My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this body of mine
That's to have the girl that I love so fine!

She touched my hand what a chill I got
Her lips are like a volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say she's my buttercup
I'm in love

Deep Purple, SMOKE ON THE WATER

We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground

Smoke on the water, a FIRE in the sky
Smoke on the water

They burned down the g@mbling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race

Smoke on the water, a FIRE in the sky
Smoke on the water

We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty, cold and bare
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We made a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know, I know we'll never forget

Smoke on the water, a FIRE in the sky
Smoke on the water



By bella! at 08,Nov,25 11:30
Billy Joel, WE DIDN’T START THE FIRE

Harry Truman, Doris Day, Red China, Johnnie Ray
South Pacific, Walter Winchell, Joe DiMaggio
Joe McCarthy, Richard Nixon, Studebaker, Television
North Korea, South Korea, Marilyn Monroe

Rosenbergs, H-Bomb, Sugar Ray, Panmunjom
Brando, The King And I, and The Catcher In The Rye
Eisenhower, Vaccine, England's got a new queen
Marciano, Liberace, Santayana goodbye

We didn't start the FIRE
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the FIRE
No, we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it

Joseph Stalin, Malenkov, Nasser and Prokofiev
Rockefeller, Campanella, Communist Bloc
Roy Cohn, Juan Peron, Toscanini, Dacron

Journey, DON’T STOP BELIEVIN’

Just a small-town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere

Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere

A singer in a smokey room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night

Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night

Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice just one more time

Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night

Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night

Don't STOP believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people

Don't STOP believin'
Hold on
Streetlight people

Don't STOP believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people

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.

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.

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!

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?
