Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, OUR HOUSE

I'll light the fire
You place the FLOWERS in the vase
That you bought today

Staring at the fire
For hours and hours while I listen to you
Play your love songs all night long for me
Only for me

Come to me now (come to me now)
And rest your head for just five minutes
Everything is done
Such a cozy room (such a cozy room)
The windows are illuminated
By the evening sunshine through them
Fiery gems for you, only for you

Our house is a very, very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy 'cause of you
And our

La-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

Our house is a very, very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy 'cause of you
And our

I'll light the fire
While you place the FLOWERS in the vase
That you bought today

Cody, there is no doubt in my mind that Ananas2xLekker is academically intelligent who enjoys discussing the politics of the United States. Of course he feels he is right but so does phart and dgraff and anyone else that posts. In my opinion, too often the political discourse gets a bit “spirited” because each poster believes they are right.

All I’m really trying to grasp is he really hoping that admin is going to roll out a black and white policy that defines what a “fake” and what constitutes looking like an “asshole”?

I get that but it is apparent that the car manufacturers have a myriad of “things” that they want to test in which they will compare their vehicle against the other guys.

I actually got into that video!

Apparently if you are driving at a speed of 120mph and attempting to negotiate multiple speed bumps, the best vehicles to be speeding in are the Dodge Ram 3500, Ford Bronco or Jeep Wrangler.

I find this guy super entertaining! He posts on YouTube as MarvickDrew and @OfficialDrewCooks. The only thing that annoys me is quite often his YouTube videos seem to be cut short. Enjoy!

I’m going to ask you this, WHO and HOW is it determined what is “fake” as well as WHO and HOW is it determined who is an “asshole”?

Who I perceive to be an “asshole” might not be someone that you perceive to be an “asshole”, right? I’ve been a member 15 to 16 years and I’m going to stick my neck out here, admin has been criticized for being too tough and he’s been criticized for not doing enough so in most instances, he has allowed US the duty of policing the site. His initial idea, this site, has evolved over the years and it is what it is. As for me, I “pick my fights”, primarily I choose not to interact with assholes and in many instances, the blacklist option is implemented.

You speak about policing the site. Hmmmm……sometime ago I reached out to you to discuss verification and verified you at that time. I’m going to play the Devil’s Advocate and drop this back onto YOU, why haven’t I seen you vote when members report members for deletion? Being a verified, tenured member gives you the PRIVILEGE of determining whether the reported member retains their membership or is booted from the site. That’s definitely a way of monitoring fakes, right?

I’m going to leave you with this food for thought; “If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem.”

This was posted in another Forum thread by Ananas2xLekker. I’m not sure that the other thread will attract the same attention that this thread may have and with that said, I’m reposting it here.


“Sure, I think that this is a great site too.
And this site would indeed be better without fakers and people who act like assholes.
Just one problem: there is no community that polices itself and if the site starts policing more strictly, it's possible that it loses the very thing that makes it great.

However, the site could be more clear about what is "to conduct yourself in an adult manner".

"By accessing the site, you agree to conduct yourself in an adult manner. This specifically means being polite to all members in chats and in the discussion forums. Aggressive behavior will not be tolerated by any member. If Site Administration is informed of aggressive behavior, we will check the discussion forums and logs. Please ensure that you provide specific examples and remit for review via private message. Site Administration reserves the right to determine what is deemed aggressive behavior on a case by case basis."

I don't see this site rule being applied consistently. If it isn't practical to implement,
I think it should be changed.”

Yeah, although I’m still in Florida, I’ve still been receiving Nextdoor updates regarding my community in Michigan that includes “weather advisory” updates. It’s actually going to be hotter in my little town up north versus what I’m experiencing here in SWFL!

On 20,June, 2026, I mentioned that I spotted Bush’s Baked Beans Apple Pie flavor on the grocery store shelves. Well, looky here….

The word for Thursday, July 2, FLOWER

Unbelievable! This looks like a really expensive mistake! I hear her calling her blackstone grill a habba-be-she. Is she unable to say hibachi (which it is not)?

Is this lady freaking nuts?

A wonderful choice! ❤️Bob Seger!!!

Here’s another short video uploaded by AirLadyJet. In my opinion, this lady COMMANDS attention. She appears to be extremely tall with long legs (I’m jealous), she wears a beautiful and bold uniform and is groomed impeccably! Note that one of her “gimmicks” is that she often is seen with a piece of luggage that magically follows her.

You're sweet (you're sweet) as a honeybee
But like a honeybee stings
You've gone and left my heart in pain
All you left (all you left) is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
It used to bring sweet memories (Sweet memories)
Of a tender love that used to be

Now it's the SAME old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
It's the SAME, SAME old song
But with a different meaning (Since you been gone)
And it breaks me up to hear it

I, oh I, sentimental fool am I (Sweet memories)
To hear an old love song and want to cry
But the melody keeps haunting me
Reminding me how in love we used to be
Keep hearing the part that used to touch our hearts
Staying (Together forever)
Darling (Breaking up never)

(Now it's the SAME old song) Can't bear to hear it
(With a different meaning since you been gone)
Oh, it hurts to hear it
It's the SAME old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone

Precious memories keep a-lingering on
Every time I hear our favorite song
Now you've gone
Left this emptiness
I only reminisce the happiness we spent
We used to dance to the music (We used to dance to the music)
Make romance to the music (Make romance to the music)

Now it's the SAME old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
Now it's the SAME old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
I, oh, I can't bear to hear it
It's the SAME old song
(But with a different meaning since you been gone)
Ooh, it breaks me up to hear it)
It's the SAME old song
But with a different meaning

My low hanger….

Billy Joel, IT’S A MATTER OF TRUST

One, two
One, two, three, four

Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
And they may not want it to end
But it will, it's just a question of when
I've lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
But that won't happen to us
'Cause it's always been a matter of TRUST

I know you're an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
But I can't offer you proof
But you're gonna face a moment of truth
It's hard when you're always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So break my heart if you must
It's a matter of TRUST

You can't go the distance
With too much resistance
I know you have doubts
But for God's sake, don't shut me out

This time you've got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it whatever you choose
I won't hold back anything
And I'll walk away a fool or a king
Some love is just a lie of the mind
It's make believe until it's only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust
But then it never was a matter of TRUST

I'm sure you're aware love
We've both had our share of
Believing too long
When the whole situation was wrong

Some love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
After you've heard lie upon lie
There can hardly be a question of why
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can't happen to us
'Cause it's always been a matter of TRUST

It's a matter of TRUST
It's always been a matter of TRUST
It's a matter of TRUST
'Cause it's always been a matter of TRUST

You said a mouthful! ❤️

“ Not all educated people are smart,they possess competence in a given subject,they can still lack common sense...”

❤️

I agree, Cody. I find mr_blue in a similar way, Charlie Kirk-esque. He rarely reflects his particular stance however he will present opinions and facts that encourage posters of other possibilities. Thank you mr_blue!

Aerosmith, DUDE (LOOKS LIKE A LADY)

That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady

Cruise into a bar on the shore
Her picture graced the grime on the door
She's a long lost love at first bite
Baby, maybe you're wrong, but you know it's all right
That's right
Backstage we're having the time
Of our lives until somebody said
"Forgive me if I seem out of line"
And she whipped out a gun and tried to blow me away!

That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady

Never judge a book by its COVER
Or who you're gonna love by your lover?
Sayin' love put me wise to her love in disguise
She had the body of a Venus
Lord, imagine my surprise

That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady

So baby, let me follow you down (Let me take a peek, dear)
Baby, let me follow you down (Do me, do me, do me all night)
Baby, let me follow you down (Turn the other cheek, dear)
Baby, let me follow you down (Do me, do me, do me, do me)

Ooh, what a funky lady
Ooh, she like it, like it, like it, like that
Ooh, he was a lady! Yeah!

Aerosmith, WALK THIS WAY

Backstroke lover
Always hidin' 'neath the COVERS
'Til I talked to your daddy, he say
He said, "You ain't seen nothin'
'Til you're down on a muffin
Then you're sure to be a-changin' your ways"
I met a cheerleader
Was a real young bleeder
Oh, the times I could reminisce
'Cause the best things of lovin'
With her sister and her cousin
Only started with a little kiss
Like this

Seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air
Singing, hey diddle diddle
With your kitty in the middle
Of the swing like you didn't care
So I took a big chance
At the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Wasn't me she was foolin'
'Cause she knew what she was doin'
And I know love was here to stay
When she told me to

Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Just give me a kiss

Like this

Schoolgirl sweetie with the classy kinda sassy
Little skirt's climbin' way up the knee
There was three young ladies in the school gym locker
When I noticed they was lookin' at me
I was a high school loser, never made it with a lady
'Til the boys told me somethin' I missed
Then my next door neighbor with a daughter had a favor
So I gave her just a little kiss
Like this

Seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air
Singing, hey diddle diddle
With your kitty in the middle
Of the swing like you didn't care
So I took a big chance
At the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Wasn't me she was foolin'
'Cause she knew what she was doin'
When she told me how to walk this way
She told me to

Walk this way
Talk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Talk this way
Just give me a kiss

You may not be a Christian, maybe you didn’t like Charlie Kirk but by golly, it was difficult to debate with him.

Santana, WINNING

only registered users can see external links

One day I was on the ground
When I needed a hand
And it couldn't be found
I was so far down
That I couldn't get up
You know and
One day I was one of life's losers
Even my friends were my ac-cus-ers
And in my head
Lost before I'd begun

I had a dream
But it turned to dust
What I thought was love
That must have been lust
I was living in style
When the walls fell in
When I played my hand
I looked like a joker
Turn around
Fate must have woke her
'Cause lady luck she was
Waiting outside the door

[Chorus:]

I'm WINNING
I'm WINNING
I'm WINNING
And I don't intend on losing again

Too bad it belonged to me
It was the wrong time
And not meant to be
It took a long time
And I knew for now
I can see the day
That I breath for
Friends agree there's a need
To play the game
And to WIN again

[Chorus:]
[repeat first line 5x's]
[repeat last line 4x's]

[Repeat Verse II]

[Chorus:]
[repeat first line 5x's]

Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band, SHAME ON THE MOON

only registered users can see external links

Until you've been beside a man
You don't know what he wants
You don't know if he cries at night
You don't know if he don't
Where nothing comes easy
Old nightmares are real
Until you've been beside a man
You don't know how he feels

Once inside a woman's heart
A man must keep his head
Heaven opens up the door
Where angels fear to tread
Some men go crazy
Some men go slow
Some men go just where they want
Some men never go

Oh, blame it on midnight
Ooh, SHAME on the moon

Everywhere it's all around
Comfort in the crowd
Strangers' faces all around
Laughin' right out loud
Hey, watch where you're goin'
Step light on old toes
'Cause until you've been beside a man
You don't know who he knows

Oh, blame it on midnight
Ooh, SHAME on the moon
Oh, blame it on midnight
Ooh, SHAME on the moon

Blame it on midnight
You can blame it on midnight
SHAME, SHAME, SHAME
SHAME on the moon
You can blame it on midnight
SHAME on the moon
Blame it on the moon

The word for Thursday, June 25, SHAME

Janis Joplin, PIECE OF MY HEART

Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on!

Didn't I make you feel like you were the only man - yeah!
An' didn't I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can ?
Honey, you know I did!
And each time I tell myself that I, well I think I've had enough,
But I'm gonna show you, baby, that a woman can be tough.

I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it,
Take it!
Take another LITTLE piece of my heart now, baby!
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another LITTLE bit of my heart now, darling, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, oh, have a!
Have another LITTLE piece of my heart now, baby,
You know you got it if it makes you feel good,
Oh, yes indeed.

You're out on the streets looking good,
And baby deep down in your heart I guess you know that it ain't right,
Never, never, never, never, never, never hear me when I cry at night,
Babe, and I cry all the time!
But each time I tell myself that I, well I can't stand the pain,
But when you hold me in your arms, I'll sing it once again.

I'll say come on, come on, come on, come on and take it!
Take it!
Take another LITTLE piece of my heart now, baby.
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another LITTLE bit of my heart now, darling, yeah,
Oh, oh, have a!
Have another LITTLE piece of my heart now, baby,
You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good.

I need you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it,
Take it!
Take another LITTLE piece of my heart now, baby!
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another LITTLE bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, c'mon now.
Oh, oh, have a
Have another LITTLE piece of my heart now, baby.
You know you got it - whoahhhhh!!

Take it!
Take it! Take another LITTLE piece of my heart now, baby,
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another LITTLE bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Oh, oh, have a
Have another LITTLE piece of my heart now, baby, hey,
You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good.

Owooo!
Who's that I see walkin' in these woods?
Why, it's LITTLE Red Riding Hood

Hey there LITTLE Red Riding Hood
You sure are looking good
You're everything a big bad wolf could want
Listen to me

LITTLE Red Riding Hood
I don't think little big girls should
Go walking in these spooky old woods alone
Owooo!

What big eyes you have
The kind of eyes that drive wolves mad
So just to see that you don't get chased
I think I ought to walk with you for a ways

What full lips you have
They're sure to lure someone bad
So until you get to grandma's place
I think you ought to walk with me and be safe

I'm gonna keep my sheep suit on
Until I'm sure that you've been shown
That I can be trusted walking with you alone
Owooo!

LITTLE Red Riding Hood
I'd like to hold you if I could
But you might think I'm a big bad wolf so I won't
Owooo!

What a big heart I have
The better to love you with
LITTLE Red Riding Hood
Even bad wolves can be good

I'll try to be satisfied
Just to walk close by your side
Maybe you'll see things my way
Before we get to grandma's place

LITTLE Red Riding Hood
You sure are looking good
You're everything that a big bad wolf could want
Owooo! I mean baa! Baa?

The Doors, THE SOFT PARADE

When I was back there in seminary school
There was a person there
Who put forth the proposition
That you can petition the Lord with prayer
Petition the Lord with prayer
Petition the Lord with prayer
You cannot petition the Lord with prayer!

Can you give me sanctuary
I must find a place to hide
A place for me to hide

Can you find me soft asylum
I can't make it anymore
The Man is at the door

Peppermint, miniskirts, chocolate candy
Champion sax and a girl named Sandy
There's only four ways to get unraveled
One is to sleep and the other is travel, da da
One is a bandit up in the hills
One is to love your neighbor 'til
His wife gets home

Catacombs
Nursery bones
Winter women
Growing stones
Carrying babies
To the river

Streets and shoes
Avenues
Letter writers
Selling news
The monk bought lunch

Ha ha, he bought a little
Yes, he did
Woo!
This is the best part of the trip
This is the trip, the best part
I really like
What'd he say?
Yeah!
Yeah, right!
Pretty good, huh
Huh!
Yeah, I'm proud to be a part of this number

Successful hills are here to stay
Everything must be this way
Gentle streets where people play
Welcome to the SOFT Parade

All our lives we sweat and save
Building for a shallow grave
Must be something else we say
Somehow to defend this place
Everything must be this way
Everything must be this way, yeah

The SOFT Parade has now begun
Listen to the engines hum
People out to have some fun
A cobra on my left
Leopard on my right, yeah

The deer woman in a silk dress
Girls with beads around their necks
Kiss the hunter of the green vest
Who has wrestled before
With lions in the night

Out of sight!
The lights are getting brighter
The radio is moaning
Calling to the dogs
There are still a few animals
Left out in the yard
But it's getting harder
To describe sailors
To the underfed

Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure
What got us this far
To this mild equator?

We need someone or something new
Something else to get us through, yeah, come on

Calling on the dogs
Calling on the dogs
Oh, it's getting harder
Calling on the dogs
Calling in the dogs
Calling all the dogs
Calling on the gods

You got to meet me
Too late, baby
Slay a few animals
At the crossroads
Too late
All in the yard
But it's getting harder
By the crossroads
You got to meet me
Oh, we're going, we're going great
At the edge of town
Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure
Having a good time
Got to come along
What got us this far
To this mild equator?
Outskirts of the city
You and I
We need someone new
Something new
Something else to get us through
Better bring your gun
Better bring your gun
Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure
We're going to ride and have some fun

When all else fails
We can whip the horse's eyes
And make them sleep
And cry

The word for Tuesday, June 23, SOFT

Another HELLA HOT week in southwest Florida with everyday projected to be somewhere in the 90’s! Ugh!!!

What I am also struggling with is the difference between Florida and Michigan with the number of daylight hours! Yep, big difference in sunrise and sunset…… So today in SWFL, sunrise is at 6:33AM EDT and sunset at 8:32PM EDT while in southeast Michigan, sunrise is at 5:52AM and sunset at 9:11PM. If I were in Michigan, I would be up and out but because I’m still in Florida, I’m still lounging around and waiting for the sun to come up!

With all the words in our vocabulary, I have to admit, I’m having a difficult time thinking of new and unused words to post that might be in a song AND then think of a song, too! You were able to come up with an Aerosmith tune and a “popular” tune at that, good for you!

The word for Monday, June 22, PAY

Mike + The Mechanics, THE LIVING YEARS

Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your door

I know that I'm a prisoner
To all my Father held so dear
I know that I'm a hostage
To all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years

Crumpled bits of paper
Filled with imperfect thought
Stilted conversations
I'm afraid that's all we've got

You say you just don't see it
He says it's perfect sense
You just can't get agreement
In this present tense
We all talk a different language
Talking in defense

Say it LOUD, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye

So we open up a quarrel
Between the present and the past
We only sacrifice the future
It's the bitterness that lasts

So don't yield to the fortunes
You sometimes see as fate
It may have a new perspective
On a different date
And if you don't give up, and don't give in
You may just be O.K.

Say it LOUD, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye

I wasn't there that morning
When my Father passed away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say

I think I caught his spirit
Later that same year
I'm sure I heard his echo
In my baby's new born tears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years

Say it LOUD, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye

Why should life be complicated? In my mind, if you want a pickle, eat a pickle and if you want apple pie, eat a slice of apple pie.

What is the world coming to?

So you thought Bush’s Baked Beans only offered Vegetarian, Original, Brown Sugar Hickory, Maple and Country Style….. STOP! If that ain’t enough, now there’s Bush’s Baked Beans Dill Pickle flavor or if that doesn’t make your taste buds go wild, there’s Bush’s Baked Beans Apple Pie flavor. Sorry, Bush, those flavors don’t sound like some I would buy.

Question for you, what do you suggest, what are you prepared to do?

Is she drop dead gorgeous? No. Is she hideous looking? No. In my opinion, she’s average in beauty but she’s got legs up to her armpits….

The word for Thursday, June 18, FAIR

You describe her as 30, KINDA PLUMP BUT NICE, cute and funny.

What is “KINDA PLUMP”, 20, 30, 40 extra pounds? Unfortunately, extra weight sometimes contributes to a non existent dating life or a serious relationship. Hey, maybe she’s on her computer playing the games that allegedly have a cash payout . Don’t knock her, how is it any different than someone who wants to go home and plop down on the couch and watch TV until it’s time to go to bed OR someone that wants to read a book, crochet, demo the bathroom, etc?

Remember JustWill? If I recall correctly, he was into comic books. Who would have ever thought someone as intelligent, quick witted and so darn funny was into comic books!?

Go for it, ask her out for supper and steer the conversation toward her interest in her computer game(s).

These women should have just remained “natural”, cosmetic surgery really messed them up!
